And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare [it:] that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

[Let] love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

But if thy brother be grieved with [thy] meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me;

What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and [in] the spirit of meekness?

Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

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.

And 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.

And 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.

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

Charity 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.

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

Follow after charity, and desire spiritual [gifts,] but rather that ye may prophesy.

Let all your things be done with charity.

My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.

Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm [your] love toward him.

For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

Therefore, as ye abound in every [thing, in] faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and [in] all diligence, and [in] your love to us, [see] that ye abound in this grace also.

I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, [be] with you all. Amen.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, [even] Christ:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

Peace [be] to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and [in] all judgment;
