InG1722 the mean timeG3739, when there were gathered togetherG1996 an innumerable multitudeG3461 of peopleG3793, insomuch thatG5620 they trodeG2662 one upon anotherG240, he beganG756 to sayG3004 untoG4314 hisG846 disciplesG3101 first of allG4412, BewareG4337 yeG1438 ofG575 the leavenG2219 of the PhariseesG5330, whichG3748 isG2076 hypocrisyG5272.
ForG1161 there isG2076 nothingG3762 coveredG4780, thatG3739 shallG601 notG3756 be revealedG601; neitherG2532 hidG2927, thatG3739 shallG1097 notG3756 be knownG1097.
ThereforeG473+G3739 whatsoeverG3745 ye have spokenG2036 inG1722 darknessG4653 shall be heardG191 inG1722 the lightG5457; andG2532 that whichG3739 ye have spokenG2980 inG4314 the earG3775 inG1722 closetsG5009 shall be proclaimedG2784 uponG1909 the housetopsG1430.
AndG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213 myG3450 friendsG5384, BeG5399 notG3361 afraidG5399 of themG575 that killG615 the bodyG4983, andG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 haveG2192 noG3361+G5100 moreG4055 that they can doG4160.
ButG1161 I will forewarnG5263 youG5213 whomG5101 ye shall fearG5399: FearG5399 him, which afterG3326 he hath killedG615 hathG2192 powerG1849 to castG1685 intoG1519 hellG1067; yeaG3483, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, FearG5399 himG5126.
AreG4453 notG3780 fiveG4002 sparrowsG4765 soldG4453 for twoG1417 farthingsG787, andG2532 notG3756 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 isG2076 forgottenG1950 beforeG1799 GodG2316?
ButG235 even the veryG2532 hairsG2359 of yourG5216 headG2776 areG705 allG3956 numberedG705. FearG5399 notG3361 thereforeG3767: ye are of more valueG1308 than manyG4183 sparrowsG4765.
AlsoG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, WhosoeverG3956+G3739+G302 shall confessG3670+G1722 meG1698 beforeG1715 menG444+G1722, himG846 shallG3670 the SonG5207 of manG444 alsoG2532 confessG3670 beforeG1715 the angelsG32 of GodG2316:
ButG1161 he that deniethG720 meG3165 beforeG1799 menG444 shall be deniedG533 beforeG1799 the angelsG32 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 whosoeverG3956+G3739 shall speakG2046 a wordG3056 againstG1519 the SonG5207 of manG444, it shall be forgivenG863 himG846: butG1161 unto him that blasphemethG987 againstG1519 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 it shallG863 notG3756 be forgivenG863.
AndG1161 whenG3752 they bringG4374 youG5209 untoG1909 the synagoguesG4864, andG2532 unto magistratesG746, andG2532 powersG1849, takeG3309 ye noG3361 thoughtG3309 howG4459 orG2228 what thingG5101 ye shall answerG626, orG2228 whatG5101 ye shall sayG2036:
ForG1063 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 shall teachG1321 youG5209 inG1722 the sameG846 hourG5610 whatG3739 ye oughtG1163 to sayG2036.
AndG1161 oneG5100 ofG1537 the companyG3793 saidG2036 unto himG846, MasterG1320, speakG2036 to myG3450 brotherG80, that he divideG3307 the inheritanceG2817 withG3326 meG1700.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto himG846, ManG444, whoG5101 madeG2525 meG3165 a judgeG1348 orG2228 a dividerG3312 overG1909 youG5209?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Take heedG3708, andG2532 bewareG5442 ofG575 covetousnessG4124: forG3754 a man'sG5100+G846 lifeG2222 consistethG2076 notG3756 inG1722 the abundanceG4052 ofG1537 the things which heG846 possessethG5224.
AndG1161 he spakeG2036 a parableG3850 untoG4314 themG846, sayingG3004, The groundG5561 of a certainG5100 richG4145 manG444 brought forth plentifullyG2164:
AndG2532 he thoughtG1260 withinG1722 himselfG1438, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160, becauseG3754 I haveG2192 noG3756 room whereG4226 to bestowG4863 myG3450 fruitsG2590?
AndG2532 he saidG2036, ThisG5124 will I doG4160: I will pull downG2507 myG3450 barnsG596, andG2532 buildG3618 greaterG3187; andG2532 thereG1563 will I bestowG4863 allG3956 myG3450 fruitsG1081 andG2532 myG3450 goodsG18.
AndG2532 I will sayG2046 to myG3450 soulG5590, SoulG5590, thou hastG2192 muchG4183 goodsG18 laid upG2749 forG1519 manyG4183 yearsG2094; take thine easeG373, eatG5315, drinkG4095, and be merryG2165.
ButG1161 GodG2316 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou foolG878, thisG5026 nightG3571 thyG4675 soulG5590 shall be requiredG523 ofG575 theeG4675: thenG1161 whoseG5101 shall those things beG2071, whichG3739 thou hast providedG2090? {thy…: Gr. do they require thy soul}
SoG3779 is he that layeth up treasureG2343 for himselfG1438, andG2532 isG4147 notG3361 richG4147 towardG1519 GodG2316.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 hisG846 disciplesG3101, ThereforeG1223+G5124 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, TakeG3309 noG3361 thoughtG3309 for yourG5216 lifeG5590, whatG5101 ye shall eatG5315; neitherG3366 for the bodyG4983, whatG5101 ye shall put onG1746.
The lifeG5590 isG2076 moreG4119 than meatG5160, andG2532 the bodyG4983 is more than raimentG1742.
ConsiderG2657 the ravensG2876: forG3754 they neitherG3756 sowG4687 norG3761 reapG2325; whichG3739 neitherG3756 haveG2076 storehouseG5009 norG3761 barnG596; andG2532 GodG2316 feedethG5142 themG846: how muchG4214 moreG3123 areG1308 yeG5210 better thanG1308 the fowlsG4071?
AndG1161 whichG5101 ofG1537 youG5216 with taking thoughtG3309 canG1410 addG4369 toG1909 hisG846 statureG2244 oneG1520 cubitG4083?
IfG1487 ye thenG3767 beG1410 notG3777 able to doG1410 that thing which is leastG1646, whyG5101 take ye thoughtG3309 forG4012 the restG3062?
ConsiderG2657 the liliesG2918 howG4459 they growG837: they toilG2872 notG3756, they spinG3514 notG3761; and yetG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, that SolomonG4672 inG1722 allG3956 hisG846 gloryG1391 wasG4016 notG3761 arrayedG4016 likeG5613 oneG1520 of theseG5130.
IfG1487 thenG1161 GodG2316 soG3779 clotheG294 the grassG5528, whichG5607 is to dayG4594 inG1722 the fieldG68, andG2532 to morrowG839 is castG906 intoG1519 the ovenG2823; how muchG4214 moreG3123 will he clothe youG5209, O ye of little faithG3640?
AndG2532 seekG2212 notG3361 yeG5210 whatG5101 ye shall eatG5315, orG2228 whatG5101 ye shall drinkG4095+G2532, neitherG3361 be ye of doubtful mindG3349. {neither…: or, live not in careful suspense}
ForG1063 allG3956 these thingsG5023 doG1934 the nationsG1484 of the worldG2889 seek afterG1934: andG1161 yourG5216 FatherG3962 knowethG1492 thatG3754 ye have needG5535 of these thingsG5130.
But ratherG4133 seek yeG2212 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316; andG2532 allG3956 these thingsG5023 shall be addedG4369 unto youG5213.
FearG5399 notG3361, littleG3398 flockG4168; forG3754 it isG2106 yourG5216 Father'sG3962 good pleasureG2106 to giveG1325 youG5213 the kingdomG932.
SellG4453 that yeG5216 haveG5224, andG2532 giveG1325 almsG1654; provideG4160 yourselvesG1438 bagsG905 which waxG3822 notG3361 oldG3822, a treasureG2344 inG1722 the heavensG3772 that faileth notG413, whereG3699 noG3756 thiefG2812 approachethG1448, neitherG3761 mothG4597 corruptethG1311.
ForG1063 whereG3699 yourG5216 treasureG2344 isG2076, thereG1563 willG2071 yourG5216 heartG2588 beG2071 alsoG2532.
LetG2077 yourG5216 loinsG3751 beG2077 girded aboutG4024, andG2532 your lightsG3088 burningG2545;
AndG2532 ye yourselvesG5210 likeG3664 unto menG444 that waitG4327 for theirG1438 lordG2962, whenG4219 he will returnG360 fromG1537 the weddingG1062; thatG2443 when he comethG2064 andG2532 knockethG2925, they may openG455 unto himG846 immediatelyG2112.
BlessedG3107 are thoseG1565 servantsG1401, whomG3739 the lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 watchingG1127: verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 he shall gird himselfG4024, andG2532 makeG347 themG846 to sit down to meatG347, andG2532 will come forthG3928 and serveG1247 themG846.
AndG2532 ifG1437 he shall comeG2064 inG1722 the secondG1208 watchG5438, orG2532 comeG2064 inG1722 the thirdG5154 watchG5438, andG2532 findG2147 them soG3779, blessedG3107 areG1526 thoseG1565 servantsG1401.
AndG1161 thisG5124 knowG1097, thatG3754 ifG1487 the goodman of the houseG3617 had knownG1492 whatG4169 hourG5610 the thiefG2812 would comeG2064+G302, he would have watchedG1127, andG2532+G302 notG3756 have sufferedG863 hisG846 houseG3624 to be broken throughG1358.
BeG1096 yeG5210 thereforeG3767 readyG2092 alsoG2532: forG3754+G3739 the SonG5207 of manG444 comethG2064 at an hourG5610 when ye thinkG1380 notG3756.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036 unto himG846, LordG2962, speakest thouG3004 thisG5026 parableG3850 untoG4314 usG2248, orG2228 evenG2532 toG4314 allG3956?
AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, WhoG5101 thenG686 isG2076 that faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 stewardG3623, whomG3739 his lordG2962 shall make rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG2322, to giveG1325 them their portion of meatG4620 inG1722 due seasonG2540?
BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
Of a truthG230 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 he will make himG846 rulerG2525 overG1909 allG3956 that heG846 hathG5224.
But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 servantG1401 sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064; andG2532 shall beginG756 to beatG5180 the menservantsG3816 andG2532 maidensG3814, andG5037 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 to be drunkenG3182;
The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 will comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 forG4328 him, andG2532 atG1722 an hourG5610 whenG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 awareG1097, andG2532 will cutG1371 himG846 in sunderG1371, andG2532 will appointG5087 him hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 the unbelieversG571. {cut…: or, cut him off}
AndG1161 thatG1565 servantG1401, whichG3588 knewG1097 hisG1438 lord'sG2962 willG2307, andG2532 preparedG2090 notG3361 himself, neitherG3366 didG4160 accordingG4314 to hisG846 willG2307, shall be beatenG1194 with manyG4183 stripes.
ButG1161 he that knewG1097 notG3361, andG1161 did commitG4160 things worthyG514 of stripesG4127, shall be beatenG1194 with fewG3641 stripes. ForG1161 unto whomsoeverG3739+G3956 muchG4183 is givenG1325, ofG3844 himG846 shall be muchG4183 requiredG2212: andG2532 to whom menG3739 have committedG3908 muchG4183, of himG846 they will askG154 the moreG4055.
I am comeG2064 to sendG906 fireG4442 onG1519 the earthG1093; andG2532 whatG5101 will IG2309, ifG1487 it beG381 alreadyG2235 kindledG381?
ButG1161 I haveG2192 a baptismG908 to be baptized withG907; andG2532 howG4459 am I straitenedG4912 tillG2193+G3739 it be accomplishedG5055! {straitened: or, pained}
Suppose yeG1380 thatG3754 I am comeG3854 to giveG1325 peaceG1515 onG1722 earthG1093? I tellG3004 youG5213, NayG3780; butG235 ratherG2228 divisionG1267:
ForG1063 fromG575 henceforthG3568 there shall beG2071 fiveG4002 inG1722 oneG1520 houseG3624 dividedG1266, threeG5140 againstG1909 twoG1417, andG2532 twoG1417 againstG1909 threeG5140.
The fatherG3962 shall be dividedG1266 againstG1909 the sonG5207, andG2532 the sonG5207 againstG1909 the fatherG3962; the motherG3384 againstG1909 the daughterG2364, andG2532 the daughterG2364 againstG1909 the motherG3384; the mother in lawG3994 againstG1909 herG846 daughter in lawG3565, andG2532 the daughter in lawG3565 againstG1909 herG846 mother in lawG3994.
AndG1161 he saidG3004 alsoG2532 to the peopleG3793, WhenG3752 ye seeG1492 a cloudG3507 riseG393 out ofG575 the westG1424, straightwayG2112 ye sayG3004, There comethG2064 a showerG3655; andG2532 soG3779 it isG1096.
AndG2532 whenG3752 ye see the south windG3558 blowG4154, ye sayG3004+G3754, There will beG2071 heatG2742; andG2532 it cometh to passG1096.
Ye hypocritesG5273, ye canG1492 discernG1381 the faceG4383 of the skyG3772 andG2532 of the earthG1093; butG1161 how is itG4459 that ye do notG3756 discernG1381 thisG5126 timeG2540?
YeaG1161, and whyG5101 evenG2532 ofG575 yourselvesG1438 judge yeG2919 notG3756 what is rightG1342?
WhenG5613+G1063 thou goestG5217 withG3326 thineG4675 adversaryG476 toG1909 the magistrateG758, as thou art inG1722 the wayG3598, giveG1325 diligenceG2039 that thou mayest be deliveredG525 fromG575 himG846; lestG3379 he haleG2694 theeG4571 toG4314 the judgeG2923, andG2532 the judgeG2923 deliverG3860 theeG4571 to the officerG4233, andG2532 the officerG4233 castG906 theeG4571 intoG1519 prisonG5438.
I tellG3004 theeG4671, thou shaltG1831 notG3364 departG1831 thenceG1564+G2532, tillG2193+G3739 thou hast paidG591 the very lastG2078 miteG3016.

AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that whenG1722 heG846 was returnedG1880, having receivedG2983 the kingdomG932, thenG2532 he commandedG2036 theseG5128 servantsG1401 to be calledG5455 unto himG846, to whomG3739 he had givenG1325 the moneyG694, thatG2443 he might knowG1097 how muchG5101 every manG5101 had gained by tradingG1281.
ThenG1161 cameG3854 the firstG4413, sayingG3004, LordG2962, thyG4675 poundG3414 hath gainedG4333 tenG1176 poundsG3414.
AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, WellG2095, thou goodG18 servantG1401: becauseG3754 thou hast beenG1096 faithfulG4103 inG1722 a very littleG1646, haveG2192 thou authorityG2468+G1849 overG1883 tenG1176 citiesG4172.
AndG2532 the secondG1208 cameG2064, sayingG3004, LordG2962, thyG4675 poundG3414 hath gainedG4160 fiveG4002 poundsG3414.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 likewiseG2532 to himG5129, BeG1096 thouG4771 alsoG2532 overG1883 fiveG4002 citiesG4172.
AndG1161 he saidG3004 alsoG2532 untoG4314 hisG846 disciplesG3101, There wasG2258 a certainG5100 richG4145 manG444, whichG3739 hadG2192 a stewardG3623; andG2532 the sameG3778 was accusedG1225 unto himG846 thatG5613 he had wastedG1287 hisG846 goodsG5224.
AndG2532 he calledG5455 himG846, and saidG2036 unto himG846, HowG5101 is it that I hearG191 thisG5124 ofG4012 theeG4675? giveG591 an accountG3056 of thyG4675 stewardshipG3622; forG1063 thou mayest beG1410 noG3756 longerG2089 stewardG3621.
ThenG1161 the stewardG3623 saidG2036 withinG1722 himselfG1438, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160? forG3754 myG3450 lordG2962 taketh awayG851 fromG575 meG1700 the stewardshipG3622: I cannotG3756+G2480 digG4626; to begG1871 I am ashamedG153.
I am resolvedG1097 whatG5101 to doG4160, thatG2443, whenG3752 I am put outG3179 of the stewardshipG3622, they may receiveG1209 meG3165 intoG1519 theirG846 housesG3624.
SoG2532 he calledG4341 everyG1538 oneG1520 of hisG1438 lord'sG2962 debtorsG5533 unto him, and saidG3004 unto the firstG4413, How muchG4214 owest thouG3784 unto myG3450 lordG2962?
AndG1161 he saidG2036, An hundredG1540 measuresG943 of oilG1637. AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, TakeG1209 thyG4675 billG1121, andG2532 sit downG2523 quicklyG5030, and writeG1125 fiftyG4004. {measures: the word Batus in the original containeth nine gallons three quarts}
ThenG1899 said heG2036 to anotherG2087, AndG1161 how muchG4214 owestG3784 thouG4771? AndG1161 he saidG2036, An hundredG1540 measuresG2884 of wheatG4621. AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto himG846, TakeG1209 thyG4675 billG1121, andG2532 writeG1125 fourscoreG3589. {measures: the word here interpreted a measure in the original containeth about fourteen bushels and two quarts}
AndG2532 the lordG2962 commendedG1867 the unjustG93 stewardG3623, becauseG3754 he had doneG4160 wiselyG5430: forG3754 the childrenG5207 of thisG5127 worldG165 areG1526 inG1519 theirG1438 generationG1074 wiserG5429 thanG5228 the childrenG5207 of lightG5457.
And IG2504 sayG3004 unto youG5213, MakeG4160 to yourselvesG1438 friendsG5384 ofG1537 the mammonG3126 of unrighteousnessG93; thatG2443, whenG3752 ye failG1587, they may receiveG1209 youG5209 intoG1519 everlastingG166 habitationsG4633. {mammon: or, riches}
He that is faithfulG4103 inG1722 that which is leastG1646 isG2076 faithfulG4103 alsoG2532 inG1722 muchG4183: andG2532 he that is unjustG94 inG1722 the leastG1646 isG2076 unjustG94 alsoG2532 inG1722 muchG4183.
IfG1487 thereforeG3767 ye haveG1096 notG3756 beenG1096 faithfulG4103 inG1722 the unrighteousG94 mammonG3126, whoG5101 will commitG4100 to yourG5213 trustG4100 the trueG228 riches? {mammon: or, riches}
AndG2532 ifG1487 ye haveG1096 notG3756 beenG1096 faithfulG4103 inG1722 that which is another man'sG245, whoG5101 shall giveG1325 youG5213 that which is your ownG5212?
ButG1161 ifG1437 I tarry longG1019, thatG2443 thou mayest knowG1492 howG4459 thou oughtestG1163 to behave thyselfG390 inG1722 the houseG3624 of GodG2316, whichG3748 isG2076 the churchG1577 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the pillarG4769 andG2532 groundG1477 of the truthG225. {ground: or, stay}
And I will set upH6965 shepherdsH7462 over them which shall feedH7462 them: and they shall fearH3372 no more, nor be dismayedH2865, neither shall they be lackingH6485, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
A manH376 hath joyH8057 by the answerH4617 of his mouthH6310: and a wordH1697 spoken in due seasonH6256, how goodH2896 is it! {due…: Heb. his season}
WhoG5101 thenG686 isG2076 a faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 hath made rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG2322, to giveG1325 themG846 meatG5160 inG1722 due seasonG2540?
SoG1161 when evenG3798 was comeG1096, the lordG2962 of the vineyardG290 saithG3004 unto hisG846 stewardG2012, CallG2564 the labourersG2040, andG2532 giveG591 themG846 their hireG3408, beginningG756 fromG575 the lastG2078 untoG2193 the firstG4413.
LetG515 the eldersG4245 that ruleG4291 wellG2573 be counted worthyG515 of doubleG1362 honourG5092, especiallyG3122 they who labourG2872 inG1722 the wordG3056 andG2532 doctrineG1319.
Ye eatH398 the fatH2459, and ye clotheH3847 you with the woolH6785, ye killH2076 them that are fedH1277: but ye feedH7462 not the flockH6629.
The LordH136 GODH3069 hath givenH5414 me the tongueH3956 of the learnedH3928, that I should knowH3045 how to speakH5790 a wordH1697 in season to him that is wearyH3287: he wakenethH5782 morningH1242 by morningH1242, he wakenethH5782 mine earH241 to hearH8085 as the learnedH3928.
BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
AsG2531 every manG1538 hath receivedG2983 the giftG5486, even so ministerG1247 the sameG846 one to anotherG1519+G1438, asG5613 goodG2570 stewardsG3623 of the manifoldG4164 graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 MosesG3475 verilyG3303 was faithfulG4103 inG1722 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624, asG5613 a servantG2324, forG1519 a testimonyG3142 of those things which were to be spoken afterG2980;
ThenG1161 saidG2036 he unto themG846, ThereforeG1223+G5124 everyG3956 scribeG1122 which is instructedG3100 untoG1519 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto a manG444 that is an householderG3617, whichG3748 bringeth forthG1544 out ofG1537 hisG846 treasureG2344 things newG2537 andG2532 oldG3820.
PreachG2784 the wordG3056; be instantG2186 in seasonG2122, out of seasonG171; reproveG1651, rebukeG2008, exhortG3870 withG1722 allG3956 longsufferingG3115 andG2532 doctrineG1322.
And soG2532 he that had receivedG2983 fiveG4002 talentsG5007 cameG4334 and broughtG4374 otherG243 fiveG4002 talentsG5007, sayingG3004, LordG2962, thou deliveredstG3860 unto meG3427 fiveG4002 talentsG5007: beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 besideG1909 themG846 fiveG4002 talentsG5007 moreG243.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, thou goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401: thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
He alsoG2532 that had receivedG2983 twoG1417 talentsG5007 cameG4334 and saidG2036, LordG2962, thou deliveredstG3860 unto meG3427 twoG1417 talentsG5007: beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 twoG1417 otherG243 talentsG5007 besideG1909 themG846.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401; thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
RememberG3421 them which have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, whoG3748 have spokenG2980 unto youG5213 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: whoseG3739 faithG4102 followG3401, consideringG333 the endG1545 of their conversationG391. {have the rule: or, are the guides}
SoG3767 whenG3753 they had dinedG709, JesusG2424 saithG3004 to SimonG4613 PeterG4074, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165 more thanG4119 theseG5130? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 lambsG721.
He saithG3004 to himG846 againG3825 the second timeG1208, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG4165 myG3450 sheepG4263.
He saithG3004 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovestG5368 thou meG3165? PeterG4074 was grievedG3076 becauseG3754 he saidG2036 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, LovestG5368 thou meG3165? AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, LordG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492 all thingsG3956; thouG4771 knowestG1097 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 sheepG4263.
LetG3049 a manG444 soG3779 accountG3049 of usG2248, asG5613 of the ministersG5257 of ChristG5547, andG2532 stewardsG3623 of the mysteriesG3466 of GodG2316.
ObeyG3982 them that have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, andG2532 submit yourselvesG5226: forG1063 theyG846 watchG69 forG5228 yourG5216 soulsG5590, asG5613 they that must giveG591 accountG3056, thatG2443 they may doG4160 itG5124 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 notG3361 with griefG4727: forG1063 thatG5124 is unprofitableG255 for youG5213. {have…: or, guide}
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
MoreoverG3063 it is requiredG2212 inG1722 stewardsG3623, thatG2443 a manG5100 be foundG2147 faithfulG4103.
The eldersG4245 which are amongG1722 youG5213 I exhortG3870, whoG3588 am also an elderG4850, andG2532 a witnessG3144 of the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, and alsoG2532 a partakerG2844 of the gloryG1391 that shallG3195 be revealedG601:
FeedG4165 the flockG4168 of GodG2316 which is amongG1722 youG5213, taking the oversightG1983 thereof, notG3361 by constraintG317, butG235 willinglyG1596; notG3366 for filthy lucreG147, butG235 of a ready mindG4290; {which…: or, as much as in you is}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
AndG2532 when the chief ShepherdG750 shall appearG5319, ye shall receiveG2865 a crownG4735 of gloryG1391 that fadeth not awayG262.
