But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.

Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.

1 Corinthians 13:1
If I make use of the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am like sounding brass, or a loud-tongued bell.

1 Corinthians 13:2
And if I have a prophet's power, and have knowledge of all secret things; and if I have all faith, by which mountains may be moved from their place, but have not love, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:3
And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me.

1 Corinthians 13:4
Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride;

1 Corinthians 13:5
Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil;

1 Corinthians 13:6
It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true;

1 Corinthians 13:7
Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things.

1 Corinthians 13:8
Though the prophet's word may come to an end, tongues come to nothing, and knowledge have no more value, love has no end.

Romans 7:13
Was then that which is good, death to me? In no way. But the purpose was that sin might be seen to be sin by working death to me through that which is good; so that through the orders of the law sin might seem much more evil.
