Compromise
      1 To those that say, today or tomorrow we will
      go  to  such  a  city,  and  continue  there  a  year,

      and buy and sell, and get rich: you do not know
      what tomorrow shall be. For what is your life?
      It is even a vapor that appears for a bit of time
      and then vanishes away. You ought to say that
      if  the  Lord  wills,  we  shall  live  and  do  this  or
      that. But now you rejoice in your bragging: all
      such rejoicing is evil. So to him that knows to
      do well, and does it not, to him it is sin.


      2  Rejoice  not  in  iniquity,  but  rejoice  in  the
      truth; bear all things, believe all things, hope all
      things,  endure  all  things.  Because  love  never

      fails, but where there are prophecies, they will
      fail; where there are tongues, they will cease;
      where there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.
      For we know in part, and we prophesy in part;
      but  when  that  which  is  perfect  is  come,  then
      that which is in part shall be done away.


      When I was a child, I spoke as a child; I

      understood as a child; I thought as a child, but
      when  I  became  an  adult,  I  put  away  childish
