‏ 1 Corinthians 13:11

 A child ( νηπιος ). See on 3:1 for  νηπιος in contrast with  τελειος (adult).

 I spake ( ελαλουν ). Imperfect active, I used to talk.

 I felt ( εφρονουν ). Imperfect active, I used to think. Better, I used to understand.

 I thought ( ελογιζομην ). Imperfect middle, I used to reason or calculate.

 Now that I am become ( οτε γεγονα ). Perfect active indicative  γεγονα, I have become a man ( ανηρ ) and remain so (Eph 4:14).

 I have put away ( κατηργηκα ). Perfect active indicative. I have made inoperative (verse 8) for good.
