Strong's G26 ἀγάπη (agape)

Then Amnon hated her with very great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her, for the last wickedness was greater than the first: and Amnon said to her, Rise, and begone.

I saw that the righteous, and the wise, And their works, are in the hand of God: Yea, there is no man that knows either love or hatred, Though all are before their face.

Also their love, and their hatred, And their envy, have now perished; Yea, there is no portion for them anymore forever In all that is done under the sun.

Bring me into the wine house; Set love before me.

Strengthen me with perfumes, Stay me with apples: for I am wounded with love.

I have charged you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, By the powers and by the virtues of the field, That ye do not rouse or wake my love, until he please.

I have charged you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the powers and by the virtues of the field, That ye rouse not nor awake my love, until he please.

He made the pillars of it silver, The bottom of it gold, The covering of it scarlet, In the midst of it a pavement of love, For the daughters of Jerusalem.

I have charged you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the powers and the virtues of the field: If ye should find my kinsman, what are ye to say to him? That I am wounded with love.

How beautiful art thou, And how sweet art thou, my love!

I have charged you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, By the virtues of the field, That ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.

Set me as a seal upon thy heart, As a seal upon thine arm; For love is strong as death; Jealousy is cruel as the grave, Her shafts are shafts of fire, even the flames thereof.

Much water will not be able to quench love, And rivers shall not drown it; If a man would give all his substance for love, Men would utterly despise it.

And he said, Thus saith the Lord, I remember the kindness of thy youth, and the love of thine espousals, in following the Holy One of Israel, saith the Lord.

And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, 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.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.

Let all your things be done with charity.

My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.

Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.

For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

By pureness, by knowledge, by long suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,

Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.

Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.

Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:

And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.

We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.

Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;

For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.

Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.

Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well:

Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.

These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
