or, "with the truth."

• (2) Love "rejoiceth not at iniquity." Alas! The flesh delights in being occupied with evil. Love takes no pleasure in discovering evil or bringing it to light. (3) Love "rejoiceth with the truth." The flesh is unholy and can find pleasure in occupation with evil. Love is holy and finds its joy in being engaged with the truth. Love is not therefore blind, for it knows and appreciates the truth.
