The Apostle Paul
1 Corinthians 13:5BSB·traditional attribution

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

Love bears evil and provocation without resentment or revenge, and it is kind, bountiful and courteous, seeking opportunities to do good. Where it reigns, a man will not envy his neighbor's gifts or estate but rejoice in them as if they were his own gain.

Commenting on 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

John Calvin Reformed

5. Doth not behave itself unseemly Erasmus renders it “Is not disdainful;” but as he quotes no author in support of this interpretation, I have preferred to retain its proper and usual signification. I explain it, however, in this way — that love does not exult in a foolish ostentation, or does not bluster, but observes moderation and propriety.

Albert Barnes Presbyterian

Verse 5. Doth not behave itself unseemly, ουκασχημονει. This word occurs in . . It means, to conduct improperly, or disgracefully, or in a manner to deserve reproach. Love seeks that which is proper or becoming in the circumstances and relations of life in which we are placed.
