--though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and
all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could

abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these
is charity.

one that hath shall be given, --but from him that hath not shall be
taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable
servant into outer darkness:--
