Ler em portuguêsComparar PT / EN

Let him that hath love in Christ fulfill the commandments of Christ.

2Who can declare the bond of the love of God?

3Who is sufficient to tell the majesty of its beauty?

4The height, whereunto love exalteth, is unspeakable.

5Love joineth us unto God; love covereth a multitude of sins; love endureth all things, is long-suffering in all things. There is nothing coarse, nothing arrogant in love. Love hath no divisions, love maketh no seditions, love doeth all things in concord. In love were all the elect of God made perfect; without love nothing is well pleasing to God:

6in love the Master took us unto Himself; for the love which He had toward us, Jesus Christ our Lord hath given His blood for us by the will of God, and His flesh for our flesh and His life for our lives.
