American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Do all things without murmurings and questionings:
that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom ye are seen as {Greek: luminaries. Wisd. 13:2; compare Revelation 21:11}lights in the world,
holding forth the word of life; that I may have whereof to glory in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain neither labor in vain.
And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone; for I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
yea, Father, {Or, that}for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.
For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Because for thy sake I have borne reproach;Shame hath covered my face.
And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh even the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
The Rock, his work is perfect;For all his ways are justice:A God of faithfulness and without iniquity,Just and right is he.
They have {Or, corrupted themselves, they &c.}dealt corruptly with him, they are not his children, {Or, but a blot upon them}it is their blemish;They are a perverse and crooked generation.
Who are crooked in their ways,And wayward in their paths:
It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.
