“If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
“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.
“Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”

This still looks like a skanky tramp stamp, despite the biblical love stuff.
It seems a bit of a juxtaposition, having a biblical verse tattooed where it is.
lol@the juxtaposition of your ass crack and the bible… fitting, since the bible is full of shit.
OMG, that’s awful. Someone tell me that’s not real.
Tattoo should be a graphical symbolism which has meaning…
Besides the questionable placement of it, what I’d like to know is if it reminds the bearer of the meaning of these verses….
I think this is a photoshop.
I’d “love” to delve into that crack a little further… or did I miss the meaning?
Nice target.
I couldn’t keep it up trying to do her from behind and reading a Bible verse the whole time.
Love wouldn’t be so patient right about then.
religious tramp stamp?
wow.
what would you think of that tattooed on the side of the ribcage? left or rite?
Still trite, regardless. If I have to hear this at another wedding/anniversary, I will shoot myself. Seems like it had the opposite effect on her.
Oh please let’s tattoo an entire bible passage on my ass
bootay.
god that is beyond tacky.
I actually think its beautifull , people obvs dont know anything about the bible its a beatiful tattoo and the phrase is a beatufiful verse from the bible !
(Leviticus 19:28) “‘And YOU must not make cuts in YOUR flesh for a deceased soul, and YOU must not put tattoo marking upon yourselves. I am the Lord.
It’s misspelled, too.
“There is no limit to it’s faith”???
persevere is also misspelled as “Preserves”
So….I’m dogging it from behind and…I mean wow.
Who actually did this tatt? Because someone is biting your work on Facebook and facading as though they did it and I know I saw this pic a couple of years ago on the internet.
I love your tat it is sooooo beatiful…whoever did it did a wonderful job on it!!! What a wonderful thing to get put on you!!!
I would like to know what this actually says? I can’t see all of it expecially on the sides…
