1 Corinthians 13:3

Full Chapter

September 17, 2025

KJV

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.

BSB

If I give all I possess to the poor and exult in the surrender of my body, but have not love, I gain nothing.

WEB

If I dole out all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.

YLT

and if I give away to feed others all my goods, and if I give up my body that I may be burned, and have not love, I am profited nothing.

F.O.G Original

(3) And if I give all my possessions and perhaps hand my body over to be burned but don’t have love, it profits nothing!

F.O.G

(3) And if I give all my possessions and perhaps hand my body over to be burned but don’t have love, it profits nothing!

F.O.G MSG

³Even if I gave away everything I owned to feed the hungry and surrendered my body to be burnedᵇ as a martyr, without love, it would gain me nothing at all.

Footnotes:

³ᵇ Burned: Some ancient manuscripts read “boast” instead of “burned,” but both convey the idea of ultimate self-sacrifice.
