| And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. | But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. | And beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. | 
| And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. | And above all these [put on] love and enfold yourselves with the pond of perfectness [which binds everything together completely in ideal harmony]. | And upon all these, put on divine and self-sacrificial love which is a binding factor of completeness. | 
| And, above everything else, be truly loving, for love binds all the virtues together in perfection. | And over all these qualities put on love, which is the tie of perfection that binds us together. |
