¹Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

¹Haddaan ku hadlo afafka dadka iyo malaa'igaha, laakiinse aanan jacayl lahayn, waxaan noqday naxaas dhawaaqaysa ama saxan bir ah oo sanqadhaya oo kale.

²And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

²Oo haddaan leeyahay hadiyadda wax sii sheegidda, oo aan garanayo waxyaalaha qarsoon oo dhan iyo aqoonta oo dhan, iyo haddaan leeyahay rumaysadka oo dhan oo aan buuraha ku dhaqaajiyo, laakiinse aanan jacayl lahayn, waxba ma ihi.

³And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

³Oo wax kastaan leeyahay haddaan bixiyo oo masaakiinta ku quudiyo, iyo haddaan jidhkayga bixiyo in la gubo, laakiinse aanan jacayl lahayn, waxba ii tari maayo.

⁴Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

⁴Jacaylku waa samir badan yahay, waana raxiim, jacaylku ninna ma xasdo, jacaylku ma faano, mana kibro,

⁵Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

⁵wax aan u ekayn ma falo, nafsaddiisana wax uma doondoono, mana xanaaqo, sharna kuma fikiro,

⁶Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

⁶xaqdarrada kuma farxo, laakiin wuxuu ku farxaa runta.

⁷Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

⁷Wax walba wuu u dulqaataa, wax walba wuu rumaystaa, wax walba wuu rajeeyaa, wax walba wuu u adkaystaa.

⁸Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

⁸Jacaylku weligii ma idlaado. Hadday wax sii sheegiddii jirto, way baabbi'i doontaa, hadday afaf jiraan way dhammaan doonaan, hadday aqooni jirto way baabbi'i doontaa.

⁹For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

⁹Waayo, waxaynu naqaan waa qabyo, oo si qabyo ahaan ah ayaynu wax u sii sheegnaa.

¹⁰But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

¹⁰Laakiin markii waxa dhammi ay yimaadaan, waxa qabyada ahi way idlaan doonaan.

¹¹When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

¹¹Markaan ilmo yar ahaan jiray, sidii ilmo oo kale ayaan u hadli jiray, sidii ilmo oo kale ayaan wax u garan jiray, sidii ilmo oo kale ayaan u fikiri jiray, laakiinse haatan waxaan noqday nin weyn, oo waxyaalihii carruurnimada waan iska fogeeyey.

¹²For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

¹²Haatan si aan caddaan ahayn ayaynu muraayad wax ugu aragnaa, laakiin markaas ka fool ka fool ayaynu wax u arki doonnaa. Hadda si qabyo ahaan ah ayaan wax u garanayaa, laakiin markaas waxaan u garan doonaa sidii la ii gartay.Haddabase waxa waaraa waa saddexdan, rumaysad iyo rajo iyo jacayl; laakiin kuwan waxaa ugu wada weyn jacayl.

¹³And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

¹³Haddabase waxa waaraa waa saddexdan, rumaysad iyo rajo iyo jacayl; laakiin kuwan waxaa ugu wada weyn jacayl.
