1 16. Love 16? cspfjcif;arwwm 16/ wmif;[ufhrfwfjwmb 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. aum&d EWK =o0g'pmyxrapmif 13;4-7 arwwmonfpdwf&snfwwf.? aus;zl;jyk wwf.?arwwmonf*k%f+ydkifjcif;r&sd/0gºugm;jcif;r&sd/rmefrmer&sd?avsmufywfpgmrusifh wwf/udk,ftusdk;udkr&smwwf/a'gotrsufrxgufwwf/ tjypf&sd onf[k rxifwwf/ rw&m;aomtr_y 0rf;ajrmufjcif;r&Sdwwf/ orrmw&m;y0rf;ajrmufwwf.? cyfodrf; aomt&mudk zhk;tkyfwwf.? cyfodrf;aomt&mudk,hkwwf.? cyfodrf;aomt&mudk ajrmfvifhwwf.? cyfodrf;aomt&mudk onf;chwwf.? 1 aum;7aefbxk 13;4-7 wmif;[ufhrfwfjwmbqrf;? rd;qfg,fgbqfg,m0f;tvjqmif@ [Awf;aus;ql;anMj/ wmif;[ufhrfwfjwmbqrf; nrfbrd;wmif;neftchuefcaifbuef/ nrfbrd;wmif;nefnkyfb0m0f;rlifrfef/ nrfbrd;qfgrmbemuyfefokif/ nrfb[awf;wmif; nefnrfbxkufbnrfbvd/ nrfb[mnusl0f;ykefjwl0fq0fju0fbulpf;/ awm;omuqfgrbj nrfbqmif@n.ufb/ nrfbwmifbnysfwfjumjeld0fyldefj/ nrfbodl0f;aysmbefg;v.ifjwmif; nefnrfbywm;qld0f;eefh/ wmif;[ufhrfwfjwmbqrf;odl0f;aysmbefg;orfbrmbywm; anmj/ t[ucfefwmbaobanmj/,krfbwmbaobanmj/ rkifjxmjr.if;xmjwmbaob anmj/,ldefhcmrfbwmbaobanmj/ Definition of love aqg;aeg;&ef ] cspfjcif;arwwm. teuft"dy`g,f nefawvbjnkyfbvmwfj nemufjnxdufjtybwmif;[ufhrfwfjwmb Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
