Strong's King James
(4) Love is patient, love is kind, not jealous, love doesn't boast, isn't puffed up,
The F.O.G
[4] Love is patient—it takes deep breaths when others would explode. Love is kind—actively seeking ways to help others flourish. Love doesn't burn with envy at others' success, doesn't strut around in pride, doesn't puff itself up like a peacock seeking attention.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
The love is long-suffering, it is kind, the love doth not envy, the love doth not vaunt itself, is not puffed up,
Young's Literal Translation
