- 1998, “1 Corinthians 13:13”, in 개역개정판 성경 [gaeyeokgaejeongpan seonggyeong, New Korean Revised Version]:
  그런 즉 믿음, 소망, 사랑, 이 세 가지 는 항상 있을 것 인 데 그 중 의 제일 은 사랑 이라
  geureonjeuk mideum, somang, sarang, i se gajineun hangsang isseul kkeosinde geu jung-ui jeireun sarang-ira.
  And now faith, hope, and love, these three will always remain; but the greatest of these is love.
