ForasmuchG1895 as manyG4183 have taken in handG2021 to set forth in orderG392 a declarationG1335 ofG4012 those thingsG4229 which are most surely believedG4135 amongG1722 usG2254,
EvenG2531 as they deliveredG3860 them unto usG2254, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginningG746 wereG1096 eyewitnessesG845, andG2532 ministersG5257 of the wordG3056;
It seemedG1380 good to me alsoG2504, having had perfectG199 understandingG3877 of all thingsG3956 from the very firstG509, to writeG1125 unto theeG4671 in orderG2517, most excellentG2903 TheophilusG2321,
ThatG2443 thou mightest knowG1921 the certaintyG803 ofG4012 those thingsG3056, whereinG3739 thou hast been instructedG2727.
There wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of HerodG2264, the kingG935 of JudaeaG2449, a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 ZachariasG2197, ofG1537 the courseG2183 of AbiaG7: andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 was ofG1537 the daughtersG2364 of AaronG2, andG2532 herG846 nameG3686 was ElisabethG1665.
AndG1161 they wereG2258 bothG297 righteousG1342 beforeG1799 GodG2316, walkingG4198 inG1722 allG3956 the commandmentsG1785 andG2532 ordinancesG1345 of the LordG2962 blamelessG273.
AndG2532 theyG846 hadG2258 noG3756 childG5043, becauseG2530 that ElisabethG1665 wasG2258 barrenG4723, andG2532 theyG846 bothG297 wereG2258 now well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that whileG1722 heG846 executed the priest's officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 inG1722 the orderG5010 of hisG846 courseG2183,
AccordingG2596 to the customG1485 of the priest's officeG2405, his lotG2975 was to burn incenseG2370 when he wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG3485 of the LordG2962.
AndG2532 the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128 of the peopleG2992 wereG2258 prayingG4336 withoutG1854 at the timeG5610 of incenseG2368.
AndG1161 there appearedG3700 unto himG846 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 standingG2476 onG1537 the right sideG1188 of the altarG2379 of incenseG2368.
AndG2532 when ZachariasG2197 sawG1492 him, he was troubledG5015, andG2532 fearG5401 fellG1968 uponG1909 himG846.
ButG1161 the angelG32 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, FearG5399 notG3361, ZachariasG2197: forG1360 thyG4675 prayerG1162 is heardG1522; andG2532 thyG4675 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 shall bearG1080 theeG4671 a sonG5207, andG2532 thou shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 thouG4671 shalt haveG2071 joyG5479 andG2532 gladnessG20; andG2532 manyG4183 shall rejoiceG5463 atG1909 hisG846 birthG1083.
ForG1063 he shall beG2071 greatG3173 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, andG2532 shall drinkG4095 neitherG3364 wineG3631 norG2532 strong drinkG4608; andG2532 he shall be filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2089 fromG1537 hisG846 mother'sG3384 wombG2836.
AndG2532 manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962 theirG846 GodG2316.
AndG2532 heG846 shall goG4281 beforeG1799 himG846 inG1722 the spiritG4151 andG2532 powerG1411 of EliasG2243, to turnG1994 the heartsG2588 of the fathersG3962 toG1909 the childrenG5043, andG2532 the disobedientG545 toG1722 the wisdomG5428 of the justG1342; to make readyG2090 a peopleG2992 preparedG2680 for the LordG2962. {to the wisdom: or, by the wisdom}
AndG2532 ZachariasG2197 saidG2036 untoG4314 the angelG32, WherebyG2596+G5101 shall I knowG1097 thisG5124? forG1063 IG1473 amG1510 an old manG4246, andG2532 myG3450 wifeG1135 well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250+G846.
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG2036 unto himG846, IG1473 amG1510 GabrielG1043, that standG3936 in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316; andG2532 am sentG649 to speakG2980 untoG4314 theeG4571, andG2532 to shewG2097 theeG4671 theseG5023 glad tidingsG2097.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thouG2071 shalt be dumbG4623, andG2532 notG3361 ableG1410 to speakG2980, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 these thingsG5023 shall be performedG1096, becauseG473+G3739 thou believestG4100 notG3756 myG3450 wordsG3056, whichG3748 shall be fulfilledG4137 inG1519 theirG846 seasonG2540.
AndG2532 the peopleG2992 waitedG2258+G4328 for ZachariasG2197, andG2532 marvelledG2296 thatG1722 heG846 tarried so longG5549 inG1722 the templeG3485.
AndG1161 when he came outG1831, he couldG1410 notG3756 speakG2980 unto themG846: andG2532 they perceivedG1921 thatG3754 he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 inG1722 the templeG3485: forG2532 heG846 beckonedG2258+G1269 unto themG846, andG2532 remainedG1265 speechlessG2974.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, as soon asG5613 the daysG2250 of hisG846 ministrationG3009 were accomplishedG4130, he departedG565 toG1519 his ownG846 houseG3624.
AndG1161 afterG3326 thoseG5025 daysG2250 hisG846 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 conceivedG4815, andG2532 hidG4032 herselfG1438 fiveG4002 monthsG3376, sayingG3004,
ThusG3779 hathG4160 the LordG2962 dealtG4160 with meG3427 inG1722 the daysG2250 whereinG3739 he looked onG1896 me, to take awayG851 myG3450 reproachG3681 amongG1722 menG444.
AndG1161 inG1722 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 the angelG32 GabrielG1043 was sentG649 fromG5259 GodG2316 untoG1519 a cityG4172 of GalileeG1056, namedG3739+G3686 NazarethG3478,
ToG4314 a virginG3933 espousedG3423 to a manG435 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was JosephG2501, ofG1537 the houseG3624 of DavidG1138; andG2532 the virgin'sG3933 nameG3686 was MaryG3137.
AndG2532 the angelG32 came inG1525 untoG4314 herG846, and saidG2036, HailG5463, thou that art highly favouredG5487, the LordG2962 is withG3326 theeG4675: blessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135. {highly…: or, graciously accepted, or, of much grace}
AndG1161 when she sawG1492 him, she was troubledG1298 atG1909 hisG846 sayingG3056, andG2532 cast in her mindG1260 what mannerG4217 of salutationG783 thisG3778 should beG1498.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto herG846, FearG5399 notG3361, MaryG3137: forG1063 thou hast foundG2147 favourG5485 withG3844 GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thou shalt conceiveG4815 inG1722 thy wombG1064, andG2532 bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
ThenG1161 saidG2036 MaryG3137 untoG4314 the angelG32, HowG4459 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071, seeingG1893 I knowG1097 notG3756 a manG435?
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto herG846, The HolyG40 GhostG4151 shall comeG1904 uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 the powerG1411 of the HighestG5310 shall overshadowG1982 theeG4671: thereforeG1352 alsoG2532 that holy thingG40 which shall be bornG1080 ofG1537 theeG4675 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thyG4675 cousinG4773 ElisabethG1665, sheG846 hathG4815 alsoG2532 conceivedG4815 a sonG5207 inG1722 herG846 old ageG1094: andG2532 thisG3778 isG2076 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 with herG846, whoG3588 was calledG2564 barrenG4723.
ForG3754 withG3844 GodG2316 nothingG3756+G3956+G4487 shall be impossibleG101.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 saidG2036, BeholdG2400 the handmaidG1399 of the LordG2962; be itG1096 unto meG3427 accordingG2596 to thyG4675 wordG4487. AndG2532 the angelG32 departedG565 fromG575 herG846.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 aroseG450 inG1722 thoseG5025 daysG2250, and wentG4198 intoG1519 the hill countryG3714 withG3326 hasteG4710, intoG1519 a cityG4172 of JudaG2448;
AndG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 of ZachariasG2197, andG2532 salutedG782 ElisabethG1665.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, whenG5613 ElisabethG1665 heardG191 the salutationG783 of MaryG3137, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 herG846 wombG2836; andG2532 ElisabethG1665 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
AndG2532 she spake outG400 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, andG2532 saidG2036, BlessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135, andG2532 blessedG2127 is the fruitG2590 of thyG4675 wombG2836.
AndG2532 whenceG4159 is thisG5124 to meG3427, thatG2443 the motherG3384 of myG3450 LordG2962 should comeG2064 toG4314 meG3165?
ForG1063, loG2400, as soon asG5613 the voiceG5456 of thyG4675 salutationG783 soundedG1096 inG1519 mineG3450 earsG3775, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 myG3450 wombG2836 forG1722 joyG20.
AndG2532 blessedG3107 is she that believedG4100: forG3754 there shall beG2071 a performanceG5050 of those things which were toldG2980 herG846 fromG3844 the LordG2962. {that…: or, which believed that there}
AndG2532 MaryG3137 saidG2036, MyG3450 soulG5590 doth magnifyG3170 the LordG2962,
AndG2532 myG3450 spiritG4151 hath rejoicedG21 inG1909 GodG2316 myG3450 SaviourG4990.
ForG3754 he hath regardedG1914+G1909 the low estateG5014 of hisG846 handmaidenG1399: forG1063, beholdG2400, fromG575 henceforthG3568 allG3956 generationsG1074 shall callG3106 meG3165 blessedG3106.
ForG3754 he that is mightyG1415 hath doneG4160 to meG3427 great thingsG3167; andG2532 holyG40 is hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 hisG846 mercyG1656 is on them that fearG5399 himG846 fromG1519 generationG1074 to generationG1074.
He hath shewedG4160 strengthG2904 withG1722 hisG846 armG1023; he hath scatteredG1287 the proudG5244 in the imaginationG1271 of theirG846 heartsG2588.
He hath put downG2507 the mightyG1413 fromG575 their seatsG2362, andG2532 exaltedG5312 them of low degreeG5011.
He hath filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with good thingsG18; andG2532 the richG4147 he hath sentG1821 emptyG2756 awayG1821.
He hath holpenG482 hisG846 servantG3816 IsraelG2474, in remembranceG3415 of his mercyG1656;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 toG4314 ourG2257 fathersG3962, to AbrahamG11, andG2532 to hisG846 seedG4690 forG1519 everG165.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 abodeG3306 withG4862 herG846 aboutG5616 threeG5140 monthsG3376, andG2532 returnedG5290 toG1519 her ownG846 houseG3624.
NowG1161 Elisabeth'sG1665 fullG4130 timeG5550 cameG4130 that sheG846 should be deliveredG5088; andG2532 she brought forthG1080 a sonG5207.
AndG2532 her neighboursG4040 andG2532 herG846 cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had shewed greatG3170 mercyG1656+G846 uponG3326 herG846; andG2532 they rejoicedG4796 with herG846.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3813; andG2532 they calledG2564 himG846 ZachariasG2197, afterG1909 the nameG3686 of hisG846 fatherG3962.
AndG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 answeredG611 and saidG2036, NotG3780 so; butG235 he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 they saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3762 ofG1722 thyG4675 kindredG4772 thatG3739 is calledG2564 by thisG5129 nameG3686.
AndG1161 they made signsG1770 to hisG846 fatherG3962, howG5101+G302 he would haveG2309 himG846 calledG2564.
AndG2532 he asked forG154 a writing tableG4093, and wroteG1125, sayingG3004, HisG846 nameG3686 isG2076 JohnG2491. AndG2532 they marvelledG2296 allG3956.
AndG1161 hisG846 mouthG4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, andG2532 hisG846 tongueG1100 loosed, andG2532 he spakeG2980, and praisedG2127 GodG2316.
AndG2532 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelt round aboutG4039 themG846: andG2532 allG3956 theseG5023 sayingsG4487 were noised abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hill countryG3714 of JudaeaG2449. {sayings: or, things}
AndG2532 allG3956 they that heardG191 them laid them upG5087 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mannerG686 of childG3813 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071! AndG2532 the handG5495 of the LordG2962 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004,
BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG2316 of IsraelG2474; forG3754 he hath visitedG1980 andG2532 redeemedG3085 hisG846 peopleG2992+G4160,
AndG2532 hath raised upG1453 an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for usG2254 inG1722 the houseG3624 of hisG846 servantG3816 DavidG1138;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 byG1223 the mouthG4750 of hisG846 holyG40 prophetsG4396, whichG3588 have been sinceG575 the world beganG165:
That we should be savedG4991 fromG1537 ourG2257 enemiesG2190, andG2532 fromG1537 the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 usG2248;
To performG4160 the mercyG1656 promised toG3326 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 to rememberG3415 hisG846 holyG40 covenantG1242;
The oathG3727 whichG3739 he swareG3660 toG4314 ourG2257 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11,
That he would grantG1325 unto usG2254, that we being deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the handG5495 of ourG2257 enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 himG846 without fearG870,
InG1722 holinessG3742 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 himG846, allG3956 the daysG2250 of ourG2257 lifeG2222.
AndG2532 thouG4771, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the HighestG5310: forG1063 thou shalt goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 hisG846 waysG3598;
To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 unto hisG846 peopleG2992 byG1722 the remissionG859 of theirG846 sinsG266, {by: or, for}
ThroughG1223 the tenderG4698 mercyG1656 of ourG2257 GodG2316; wherebyG1722+G3739 the dayspringG395 fromG1537 on highG5311 hath visitedG1980 usG2248, {tender…: or, bowels of the mercy} {dayspring: or, Sunrising, or, branch, Zac.3.8, esay II, I Malich.4.2, numb.24.17}
To give lightG2014 to them that sitG2521 inG1722 darknessG4655 andG2532 in the shadowG4639 of deathG2288, to guideG2720 ourG2257 feetG4228 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515.
AndG1161 the childG3813 grewG837, andG2532 waxed strongG2901 in spiritG4151, andG2532 wasG2258 inG1722 the desertsG2048 tillG2193 the dayG2250 of hisG846 shewingG323 untoG4314 IsraelG2474.

AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto themG846, YeG5210 areG2075 they which justifyG1344 yourselvesG1438 beforeG1799 menG444; butG1161 GodG2316 knowethG1097 yourG5216 heartsG2588: forG3754 that which is highly esteemedG5308 amongG1722 menG444 isG2076 abominationG946 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.
And if thou wilt walkH3212 beforeH6440 me, as DavidH1732 thy fatherH1 walkedH1980, in integrityH8537 of heartH3824, and in uprightnessH3476, to doH6213 according to all that I have commandedH6680 thee, and wilt keepH8104 my statutesH2706 and my judgmentsH4941:
ThatG2443 ye may beG1096 blamelessG273 andG2532 harmlessG185, the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, without rebukeG298, inG1722 the midstG3319 of a crookedG4646 andG2532 perverseG1294 nationG1074, amongG1722 whomG3739 ye shineG5316 asG5613 lightsG5458 inG1722 the worldG2889; {harmless: or, sincere} {ye shine: or, shine ye}
These are the generationsH8435 of NoahH5146: NoahH5146 was a justH6662 manH376 and perfectH8549 in his generationsH1755, and NoahH5146 walkedH1980 with GodH430. {perfect: or, upright}
I beseechH577 thee, O LORDH3068, rememberH2142 now how I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 thee in truthH571 and with a perfectH8003 heartH3824, and have doneH6213 that which is goodH2896 in thy sightH5869. And HezekiahH2396 weptH1058+H1065 soreH1419. {sore: Heb. with a great weeping}
InG1722 the bodyG4983 of hisG846 fleshG4561 throughG1223 deathG2288, to presentG3936 youG5209 holyG40 andG2532 unblameableG299 andG2532 unreproveableG410 in hisG846 sightG2714:
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto NoahH5146, ComeH935 thou and all thy houseH1004 into the arkH8392; for thee have I seenH7200 righteousH6662 before meH6440 in thisH2088 generationH1755.

And when AbramH87 was ninetyH8673+H8141 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and nineH8672, the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to AbramH87, and saidH559 unto him, I am the AlmightyH7706 GodH410; walkH1980 before meH6440, and be thou perfectH8549. {perfect: or, upright, or, sincere}
AndG1161 PaulG3972, earnestly beholdingG816 the councilG4892, saidG2036, MenG435 and brethrenG80, IG1473 have livedG4176 in allG3956 goodG18 conscienceG4893 before GodG2316 untilG891 thisG5026 dayG2250.
WhereforeG1352, belovedG27, seeing that ye look forG4328 such thingsG5023, be diligentG4704 that ye may be foundG2147 of himG846 inG1722 peaceG1515, without spotG784, andG2532 blamelessG298.
There was a manH376 in the landH776 of UzH5780, whose nameH8034 was JobH347; and that manH376 was perfectH8535 and uprightH3477, and one that fearedH3373 GodH430, and eschewedH5493 evilH7451.
AndG1161 hereinG1722+G5129 do I exerciseG778 myselfG846, to haveG2192 alwaysG1275 a conscienceG4893 void of offenceG677 towardG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 toward menG444.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Hast thou consideredH7760+H3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him in the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and eschewethH5493 evilH7451? {considered: Heb. set thy heart on}
NowG1161 I praiseG1867 youG5209, brethrenG80, thatG3754 ye rememberG3415 meG3450 in all thingsG3956, andG2532 keepG2722 the ordinancesG3862, asG2531 I deliveredG3860 them to youG5213. {ordinances: or, traditions}
I knowH3045 it is so of a truthH551: but how should manH582 be justH6663 with GodH410? {with God: or, before God?}
ForG1063 ourG2257 rejoicingG2746 isG2076 thisG3778, the testimonyG3142 of ourG2257 conscienceG4893, thatG3754 inG1722 simplicityG572 andG2532 godlyG2316 sincerityG1505, notG3756 withG1722 fleshlyG4559 wisdomG4678, butG235 byG1722 the graceG5485 of GodG2316, we have had our conversationG390 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG1161 more abundantlyG4056 toG4314 you-wardG5209.
WhatG5101 thenG3767? are we betterG4284 than they? NoG3756, in no wiseG3843: forG1063 we have before provedG4256 bothG5037 JewsG2453 andG2532 GentilesG1672, that they areG1511 allG3956 underG5259 sinG266; {proved: Gr. charged}
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3756 righteousG1342, no, notG3761 oneG1520:
There isG2076 noneG3756 that understandethG4920, there isG2076 noneG3756 that seeketh afterG1567 GodG2316.
They areG1578 allG3956 gone out of the wayG1578, they areG889 togetherG260 become unprofitableG889; there isG2076 noneG3756 that doethG4160 goodG5544, no, notG3756 oneG2076+G2193+G1520.
TheirG846 throatG2995 is an openG455 sepulchreG5028; with theirG846 tonguesG1100 they have used deceitG1387; the poisonG2447 of aspsG785 is underG5259 theirG846 lipsG5491:
WhoseG3739 mouthG4750 is fullG1073 of cursingG685 andG2532 bitternessG4088:
TheirG846 feetG4228 are swiftG3691 to shedG1632 bloodG129:
DestructionG4938 andG2532 miseryG5004 are inG1722 theirG846 waysG3598:
AndG2532 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515 haveG1097 they notG3756 knownG1097:
There isG2076 noG3756 fearG5401 of GodG2316 beforeG561 theirG846 eyesG3788.
NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 what things soeverG3745 the lawG3551 saithG3004, it saithG2980 to them who are underG1722 the lawG3551: thatG2443 everyG3956 mouthG4750 may be stoppedG5420, andG2532 allG3956 the worldG2889 may becomeG1096 guiltyG5267 before GodG2316. {guilty…: or, subject to the judgment of God}
ThereforeG1360 byG1537 the deedsG2041 of the lawG3551 there shallG1344 noG3956+G3756 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344 in hisG846 sightG1799: forG1063 byG1223 the lawG3551 is the knowledgeG1922 of sinG266.
ButG1161 nowG3570 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 is manifestedG5319, being witnessedG3140 byG5259 the lawG3551 andG2532 the prophetsG4396;
EvenG1161 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 which is byG1223 faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 untoG1519 allG3956 andG2532 uponG1909 allG3956 them that believeG4100: forG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 differenceG1293:
ForG1063 allG3956 have sinnedG264, andG2532 come shortG5302 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316;
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhomG3739 GodG2316 hath set forthG4388 to be a propitiationG2435 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, toG1519 declareG1732 hisG846 righteousnessG1343 forG1223 the remissionG3929 of sinsG265 that are pastG4266, throughG1722 the forbearanceG463 of GodG2316; {set forth: or, foreordained} {remission: or, passing over}
ConcerningG2596 zealG2205, persecutingG1377 the churchG1577; touchingG2596 the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is inG1722 the lawG3551+G1096, blamelessG273.
ConcerningG2596 zealG2205, persecutingG1377 the churchG1577; touchingG2596 the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is inG1722 the lawG3551+G1096, blamelessG273.
ButG235 what thingsG3748 wereG2258 gainG2771 to meG3427, thoseG5023 I countedG2233 lossG2209 forG1223 ChristG5547.
YeaG235 doubtlessG3304, andG2532 I countG2233 all thingsG3956 but lossG2209 forG1511+G1223 the excellencyG5242 of the knowledgeG1108 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 myG3450 LordG2962: forG1223 whomG3739 I have suffered the lossG2210 of all thingsG3956, andG2532 do countG2233 themG1511 but dungG4657, thatG2443 I may winG2770 ChristG5547,
AndG2532 be foundG2147 inG1722 himG846, notG3361 havingG2192 mine ownG1699 righteousnessG1343, whichG3588 is ofG1537 the lawG3551, butG235 that whichG3588 is throughG1223 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is ofG1537 GodG2316 byG1909 faithG4102:
ForG1063 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 that bringeth salvationG4992 hath appearedG2014 to allG3956 menG444, {hath…: or, to all men, hath appeared}
TeachingG3811 usG2248 thatG2443, denyingG720 ungodlinessG763 andG2532 worldlyG2886 lustsG1939, we should liveG2198 soberlyG4996+G2532, righteouslyG1346, andG2532 godlyG2153, inG1722 this presentG3568 worldG165;
Looking forG4327 that blessedG3107 hopeG1680, andG2532 the gloriousG1391 appearingG2015 of the greatG3173 GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; {glorious…: Gr. the appearance of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour Jesus Christ}
WhoG3739 gaveG1325 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257, thatG2443 he might redeemG3084 usG2248 fromG575 allG3956 iniquityG458, andG2532 purifyG2511 unto himselfG1438 a peculiarG4041 peopleG2992, zealousG2207 of goodG2570 worksG2041.
ForG1063 we ourselvesG2249 alsoG2532 wereG2258+G453 sometimesG4218 foolishG453, disobedientG545, deceivedG4105, servingG1398 diversG4164 lustsG1939 andG2532 pleasuresG2237, livingG1236 inG1722 maliceG2549 andG2532 envyG5355, hatefulG4767, and hatingG3404 one anotherG240.
ButG1161 afterG3753 that the kindnessG5544 andG2532 loveG5363 of GodG2316 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 toward manG5363 appearedG2014, {love: or, pity}
NotG3756 byG1537 worksG2041 ofG1722 righteousnessG1343 whichG3739 weG2249 have doneG4160, butG235 according toG2596 hisG846 mercyG1656 he savedG4982 usG2248, byG1223 the washingG3067 of regenerationG3824, andG2532 renewingG342 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151;
WhichG3739 he shedG1632 onG1909 usG2248 abundantlyG4146 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 SaviourG4990; {abundantly: Gr. richly}
ThatG2443 being justified byG1344 hisG1565 graceG5485, we should be madeG1096 heirsG2818 according toG2596 the hopeG1680 of eternalG166 lifeG2222.
AndG2532 herebyG1722+G5129 we do knowG1097 thatG3754 we knowG1097 himG846, ifG1437 we keepG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG1785.
