American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
For what shall a man be profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and forfeit his life? or what shall a man give in exchange for his life?
The same following after Paul and us cried out, saying, These men are {Greek: bondservants.}servants of the Most High God, who proclaim unto you {Or, a way}the way of salvation.
To give knowledge of salvation unto his peopleIn the remission of their sins,
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation;And uphold me with a willing spirit.
Because Christ also {Many ancient authorities read died.}suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
for the showing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be {See chapter 2:13 margin.}just, and the {See chapter 2:13 margin.}justifier of him that {Greek: is of faith.}hath faith in Jesus.
Oh magnify Jehovah with me,And let us exalt his name together.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed out of death into life.
ל LAMEDH.For ever, O Jehovah,Thy word is settled in heaven.
God is not a man, that he should lie,Neither the son of man, that he should repent:Hath he said, and will he not do it?Or hath he spoken, and will he not make it good?
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth hath eternal life.
