1 Corinthians 13:1

Ἐὰν ταῖς γλώσσαις τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαλῶ καὶ τῶν ἀγγέλων, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, γέγονα χαλκὸς ἠχῶν ἢ κύμβαλον ἀλαλάζον.
King James Version (KJV)

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

Modern English

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

Greek

Ἐὰν ταῖς γλώσσαις τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαλῶ καὶ τῶν ἀγγέλων, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, γέγονα χαλκὸς ἠχῶν κύμβαλον ἀλαλάζον.

Ean tais glōssais tōn anthrōpōn lalō kai tōn aggelōn, agapēn de echō, gegona chalkos ēchōn ē kymbalon alalazon.
