All things whatsoever
ye would that men should do to you, do
ye even so to them." The
second phrase is also an adaptation of a
command given by Jesus in the
"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not
charity, I am become as sounding
brass [a
brass instrument emitting
sound], or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all
mysteries, and all
knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not
charity, I am nothing."
