NowG1161 there wereG2258 inG2596 the churchG1577 that wasG5607 atG1722 AntiochG490 certainG5100 prophetsG4396 andG2532 teachersG1320; asG5037 BarnabasG921, andG2532 SimeonG4826 that was calledG2564 NigerG3526, andG2532 LuciusG3066 of CyreneG2956, andG5037 ManaenG3127, which had been brought upG4939 with HerodG2264 the tetrarchG5076, andG2532 SaulG4569. {which…: or, Herod's foster brother}
AsG1161 theyG846 ministeredG3008 to the LordG2962, andG2532 fastedG3522, the HolyG40 GhostG4151 saidG2036+G1211, SeparateG873 meG3427+G5037 BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569 forG1519 the workG2041 whereuntoG3739 I have calledG4341 themG846.
AndG5119 when they had fastedG3522 andG2532 prayedG4336, andG2532 laidG2007 their handsG5495 onG2007 themG846, they sent them awayG630.
SoG3303+G3767 theyG3778, being sent forthG1599 byG5259 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, departedG2718 untoG1519 SeleuciaG4581; and fromG1564 thenceG5037 they sailedG636 toG1519 CyprusG2954.
AndG2532 when they wereG1096 atG1722 SalamisG4529, they preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 of the JewsG2453: andG1161 they hadG2192 alsoG2532 JohnG2491 to their ministerG5257.
AndG1161 when they had gone throughG1330 the isleG3520 untoG891 PaphosG3974, they foundG2147 a certainG5100 sorcererG3097, a false prophetG5578, a JewG2453, whoseG3739 nameG3686 was BarjesusG919:
WhichG3739 wasG2258 withG4862 the deputy of the countryG446, SergiusG4588 PaulusG3972, a prudentG4908 manG435; whoG3778 calledG4341 for BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569, and desiredG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 ElymasG1681 the sorcererG3097 (forG1063 soG3779 is hisG846 nameG3686 by interpretationG3177) withstoodG436 themG846, seekingG2212 to turn awayG1294 the deputyG446 fromG575 the faithG4102.
ThenG1161 SaulG4569, (whoG3588 alsoG2532 is called PaulG3972,) filled withG4130 the HolyG40 GhostG4151+G2532, set his eyesG816 onG1519 himG846,
And saidG2036, OG5599 fullG4134 of allG3956 subtiltyG1388 andG2532 allG3956 mischiefG4468, thou childG5207 of the devilG1228, thou enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, wilt thouG3973 notG3756 ceaseG3973 to pervertG1294 the rightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962?
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, the handG5495 of the LordG2962 is uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 thou shalt beG2071 blindG5185, notG3361 seeingG991 the sunG2246 forG891 a seasonG2540. AndG1161 immediatelyG3916 there fellG1968 onG1909 himG846 a mistG887 andG2532 a darknessG4655; andG2532 he went aboutG4013 seekingG2212 some to lead him by the handG5497.
ThenG5119 the deputyG446, when he sawG1492 what was doneG1096, believedG4100, being astonishedG1605 atG1909 the doctrineG1322 of the LordG2962.
NowG1161 when PaulG3972 and his companyG4012 loosedG321 fromG575 PaphosG3974, they cameG2064 toG1519 PergaG4011 in PamphyliaG3828: andG1161 JohnG2491 departingG672 fromG575 themG846 returnedG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2414.
ButG1161 when theyG846 departedG1330 fromG575 PergaG4011, they cameG3854 toG1519 AntiochG490 in PisidiaG4099, andG2532 wentG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 on the sabbathG4521 dayG2250, and sat downG2523.
AndG1161 afterG3326 the readingG320 of the lawG3551 andG2532 the prophetsG4396 the rulers of the synagogueG752 sentG649 untoG4314 themG846, sayingG3004, Ye menG435 and brethrenG80, ifG1487 ye haveG2076+G1722+G5213 any wordG3056 of exhortationG3874 forG4314 the peopleG2992, say onG3004.
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stood upG450, andG2532 beckoningG2678 with his handG5495 saidG2036, MenG435 of IsraelG2475, andG2532 ye that fearG5399 GodG2316, give audienceG191.
The GodG2316 of thisG5127 peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474 choseG1586 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 exaltedG5312 the peopleG2992 whenG1722 they dwelt as strangersG3940 inG1722 the landG1093 of EgyptG125, andG2532 withG3326 an highG5308 armG1023 brought heG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 itG846.
AndG2532 aboutG5613 the timeG5550 of forty yearsG5063 suffered heG5159 theirG846 mannersG5159 inG1722 the wildernessG2048. {suffered…: or bore, or fed them as a nurse beareth, or feedeth, her child}
AndG2532 when he had destroyedG2507 sevenG2033 nationsG1484 inG1722 the landG1093 of ChanaanG5477, he dividedG2624 theirG846 landG1093 to themG846 by lotG2624.
AndG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 he gaveG1325 unto them judgesG2923 aboutG5613 the space of four hundredG5071 andG2532 fiftyG4004 yearsG2094, untilG2193 SamuelG4545 the prophetG4396.
And afterwardG2547 they desiredG154 a kingG935: andG2532 GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto themG846 SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of CisG2797, a manG435 ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, by the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094.
AndG2532 when he had removedG3179 himG846, he raised upG1453 unto themG846 DavidG1138 to beG1519 their kingG935; to whomG3739 alsoG2532 he gave testimonyG3140, and saidG2036, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 mine ownG3450 heartG2588, whichG3739 shall fulfilG4160 allG3956 myG3450 willG2307.
OfG575 this man'sG5127 seedG4690 hathG1453 GodG2316 accordingG2596 to his promiseG1860 raisedG1453 unto IsraelG2474 a SaviourG4990, JesusG2424:
When JohnG2491 had first preachedG4296 beforeG4253 hisG846 comingG4383+G1529 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474.
AndG1161 asG5613 JohnG2491 fulfilledG4137 his courseG1408, he saidG3004, WhomG5101 think yeG5282 that IG3165 amG1511? IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 he. ButG235, beholdG2400, there cometh oneG2064 afterG3326 meG1691, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 of his feetG4228 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 to looseG3089.
MenG435 and brethrenG80, childrenG5207 of the stockG1085 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 whosoever amongG1722 youG5213 fearethG5399 GodG2316, to youG5213 isG649 the wordG3056 of thisG5026 salvationG4991 sentG649.
ForG1063 they that dwellG2730 atG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 theirG846 rulersG758, because they knewG50 himG5126 notG50, nor yetG2532 the voicesG5456 of the prophetsG4396 whichG3588 are readG314+G2596 everyG3956 sabbath dayG4521, they have fulfilledG4137 them in condemningG2919 him.
AndG2532 though they foundG2147 noG3367 causeG156 of deathG2288 in him, yet desired theyG154 PilateG4091 that heG846 should be slainG337.
AndG1161 whenG5613 they had fulfilledG5055 allG537 that was writtenG1125 ofG4012 himG846, they took him downG2507 fromG575 the treeG3586, and laidG5087 him inG1519 a sepulchreG3419.
ButG1161 GodG2316 raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498:
And heG3739 was seenG3700 manyG1909+G4119 daysG2250 of them which came up withG4872 himG846 fromG575 GalileeG1056 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, whoG3748 areG1526 hisG846 witnessesG3144 untoG4314 the peopleG2992.
AndG2532 weG2249 declareG2097 unto youG5209 glad tidingsG2097, how thatG3754 the promiseG1860 which was madeG1096 untoG4314 the fathersG3962,
GodG2316 hath fulfilledG1603 the sameG5026 unto usG2254 theirG846 childrenG5043, in that he hath raised upG450 JesusG2424 againG450; asG5613 it isG1125 alsoG2532 writtenG1125 inG1722 the secondG1208 psalmG5568, ThouG4771 artG1488 myG3450 SonG5207, this dayG4594 have IG1473 begottenG1080 theeG4571.
AndG1161 as concerning thatG3754 he raisedG450 himG846 upG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, now no moreG3371 toG3195 returnG5290 toG1519 corruptionG1312, he saidG2046 on this wiseG3779+G3754, I will giveG1325 youG5213 the sureG4103 merciesG3741 of DavidG1138. {mercies: Gr. holy, or just things: which word the Septuagint in many places, uses for that which is in the Hebrew, mercies}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004 alsoG2532 inG1722 anotherG2087 psalm, Thou shaltG1325 notG3756 sufferG1325 thineG4675 Holy OneG3741 to seeG1492 corruptionG1312.
ForG1063+G3303 DavidG1138, after he had servedG5256 his ownG2398 generationG1074 by the willG1012 of GodG2316, fell on sleepG2837, andG2532 was laidG4369 untoG4314 hisG846 fathersG3962, andG2532 sawG1492 corruptionG1312: {after…: or, after he had in his own age served the will of God}
ButG1161 he, whomG3739 GodG2316 raised againG1453, sawG1492 noG3756 corruptionG1312.
Be itG2077 knownG1110 unto youG5213 thereforeG3767, menG435 and brethrenG80, thatG3754 throughG1223 this manG5127 is preachedG2605 unto youG5213 the forgivenessG859 of sinsG266:
AndG2532 byG1722 himG5129 allG3956 that believeG4100 are justifiedG1344 fromG575 all thingsG3956, from whichG3739 ye couldG1410 notG3756 be justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475.
BewareG991 thereforeG3767, lest thatG3361 comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209, which is spoken ofG2046 inG1722 the prophetsG4396;
BeholdG1492, ye despisersG2707, andG2532 wonderG2296, andG2532 perishG853: forG3754 IG1473 workG2038 a workG2041 inG1722 yourG5216 daysG2250, a workG2041 whichG3739 ye shallG4100 in no wiseG3364 believeG4100, thoughG1437 a manG5100 declare itG1555 unto youG5213.
AndG1161 when the JewsG2453 were goneG1826 out ofG1537 the synagogueG4864, the GentilesG1484 besoughtG3870 that theseG5023 wordsG4487 might be preachedG2980 to themG846+G1519 the nextG3342 sabbathG4521. {the next…: Gr. in the week between, or, in the sabbath between}
NowG1161 when the congregationG4864 was broken upG3089, manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 andG2532 religiousG4576 proselytesG4339 followedG190 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921: whoG3748, speakingG4354 to themG846, persuadedG3982 themG846 to continueG1961 in the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 the nextG2064 sabbath dayG4521 cameG4863 almostG4975 the wholeG3956 cityG4172 togetherG4863 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 when the JewsG2453 sawG1492 the multitudesG3793, they were filledG4130 with envyG2205, andG2532 spake againstG483 those things which were spokenG3004 byG5259 PaulG3972, contradictingG483 andG2532 blasphemingG987.
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 waxed boldG3955, and saidG2036, It wasG2258 necessaryG316 that the wordG3056 of GodG2316 shouldG2980 firstG4412 have been spokenG2980 to youG5213: butG1161 seeingG1894 ye putG683 itG846 from youG683, andG2532 judgeG2919 yourselvesG1438 unworthyG3756+G514 of everlastingG166 lifeG2222, loG2400, we turnG4762 toG1519 the GentilesG1484.
ForG1063 soG3779 hathG1781 the LordG2962 commandedG1781 usG2254, saying, I have setG5087 theeG4571 to beG1519 a lightG5457 of the GentilesG1484, that thouG4571 shouldest beG1511 forG1519 salvationG4991 untoG2193 the endsG2078 of the earthG1093.
AndG1161 when the GentilesG1484 heard thisG191, they were gladG5463, andG2532 glorifiedG1392 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962: andG2532 as many asG3745 wereG2258 ordainedG5021 toG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222 believedG4100.
AndG1161 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 was publishedG1308 throughoutG1223 allG3650 the regionG5561.
ButG1161 the JewsG2453 stirred upG3951 the devoutG4576 andG2532 honourableG2158 womenG1135, andG2532 the chief menG4413 of the cityG4172, andG2532 raisedG1892 persecutionG1375 againstG1909 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 expelledG1544 themG846 out ofG575 theirG846 coastsG3725.
ButG1161 they shook offG1621 the dustG2868 of theirG846 feetG4228 againstG1909 themG846, and cameG2064 untoG1519 IconiumG2430.
AndG1161 the disciplesG3101 were filled withG4137 joyG5479, andG2532 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151.

BeginningG756 fromG575 the baptismG908 of JohnG2491, untoG2193 that same dayG2250 thatG3739 he was taken upG353 fromG575 usG2257, mustG1163 oneG1520 be ordainedG1096 to be a witnessG3144 withG4862 usG2254 of hisG846 resurrectionG386.
That wordG4487, I say, yeG5210 knowG1492, which was publishedG1096 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449, and beganG756 fromG575 GalileeG1056, afterG3326 the baptismG908 whichG3739 JohnG2491 preachedG2784;
AndG5037 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, UntoG1519 whatG5101 thenG3767 were ye baptizedG907? AndG1161 they saidG2036, UntoG1519 John'sG2491 baptismG908.
ThenG1161 saidG2036 PaulG3972, JohnG2491 verilyG3303 baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341, sayingG3004 unto the peopleG2992, thatG2443 they should believeG4100 onG1519 him which should comeG2064 afterG3326 himG846, that isG5123, onG1519 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
InG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250 cameG3854 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910, preachingG2784 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 of JudaeaG2449,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, Repent yeG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
ForG1063 thisG3778 is heG2076 that was spokenG4483 of byG5259 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
AndG1161 the sameG846 JohnG2491 hadG2192 hisG846 raimentG1742 ofG575 camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 a leathernG1193 girdleG2223 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG1161 hisG846 meatG5160 wasG2258 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192.
ThenG5119 went outG1607 toG4314 himG846 JerusalemG2414, andG2532 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 allG3956 the region round aboutG4066 JordanG2446,
AndG2532 were baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
ButG1161 when he sawG1492 manyG4183 of the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 SadduceesG4523 comeG2064 toG1909 hisG846 baptismG908, he saidG2036 unto themG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 meetG514 for repentanceG3341: {meet…: or, answerable to amendment of life}
AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11.
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204 untoG1519 repentanceG3341: butG1161 he that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 isG2076 mightier thanG2478 IG3450, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to bearG941: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 with fireG4442:
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG4396, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
JohnG2491 didG1096 baptizeG907 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, andG2532 preachG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266. {for: or, unto}
AndG2532 there went outG1607 untoG4314 himG846 allG3956 the landG5561 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 they of JerusalemG2415, andG2532 wereG907 allG3956 baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 the riverG4215 of JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
AndG1161 JohnG2491 wasG2258 clothedG1746 with camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 with a girdleG2223 of a skinG1193 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG2532 he did eatG2068 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192;
AndG2532 preachedG2784, sayingG3004, There comethG2064 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 afterG3694 meG3450, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739 shoesG846+G5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to stoop downG2955 and unlooseG3089.
IG1473 indeedG3303 have baptizedG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
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;
AnnasG452 andG2532 CaiaphasG2533 beingG1909 the high priestsG749, the wordG4487 of GodG2316 cameG1096 untoG1909 JohnG2491 the sonG5207 of ZachariasG2197 inG1722 the wildernessG2048.
AndG2532 he cameG2064 intoG1519 allG3956 the country aboutG4066 JordanG2446, preachingG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of the wordsG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
AndG2532 allG3956 fleshG4561 shall seeG3700 the salvationG4992 of GodG2316.
ThenG3767 saidG3004 he to the multitudeG3793 that came forthG1607 to be baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 worthyG514 of repentanceG3341, andG2532 beginG756 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11. {worthy of: or, meet for}
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: everyG3956 treeG1186 thereforeG3767 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
AndG2532 the peopleG3793 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 shall we doG4160 thenG3767?
He answerethG611 andG1161 saithG3004 unto themG846, He that hathG2192 twoG1417 coatsG5509, let him impartG3330 to him that hathG2192 noneG3361; andG2532 he that hathG2192 meatG1033, let him doG4160 likewiseG3668.
ThenG1161 cameG2064 alsoG2532 publicansG5057 to be baptizedG907, andG2532 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, MasterG1320, whatG5101 shall we doG4160?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, ExactG4238 noG3367 moreG4119 thanG3844 that which is appointedG1299 youG5213.
AndG1161 the soldiersG4754 likewiseG2532 demandedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, AndG2532 whatG5101 shall weG2249 doG4160? AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Do violenceG1286 to no manG3367, neitherG3366 accuse any falselyG4811; andG2532 be contentG714 with yourG5216 wagesG3800. {Do violence…: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
AndG1161 as the peopleG2992 were in expectationG4328, andG2532 all menG3956 musedG1260 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588 ofG4012 JohnG2491, whetherG3379 heG846 wereG1498 the ChristG5547, or notG3379; {in expectation: or, in suspense} {mused: or, reasoned, or, debated}
JohnG2491 answeredG611, sayingG3004 unto them allG537, IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 with waterG5204; butG1161 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 comethG2064, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739+G846 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to unlooseG3089: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with fireG4442:
WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will throughly purgeG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 will gatherG4863 the wheatG4621 intoG1519 hisG846 garnerG596; butG1161 the chaffG892 he will burnG2618 with fireG4442 unquenchableG762.
AndG2532+G3767 manyG4183 otherG2087 thingsG4183+G3303 in his exhortationG3870 preachedG2097 he unto the peopleG2992.
ButG1161 HerodG2264 the tetrarchG5076, being reprovedG1651 byG5259 himG846 forG4012 HerodiasG2266 hisG846 brotherG80 Philip'sG5376 wifeG1135, andG2532 forG4012 allG3956 the evilsG4190 whichG3739 HerodG2264 had doneG4160,
AddedG4369 yetG2532 thisG5124 aboveG1909 allG3956, thatG2532 he shut upG2623 JohnG2491 inG1722 prisonG5438.
There wasG1096 a manG444 sentG649 fromG3844 GodG2316, whoseG846 nameG3686 was JohnG2491.
The sameG3778 cameG2064 forG1519 a witnessG3141, toG2443 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 the LightG5457, thatG2443 allG3956 men throughG1223 himG846 might believeG4100.
He wasG2258 notG3756 thatG1565 LightG5457, butG235 was sent toG2443 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 that LightG5457.
JohnG2491 bare witnessG3140 ofG4012 himG846, andG2532 criedG2896, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 was heG2258 of whomG3739 I spakeG2036, He that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450: forG3754 he wasG2258 beforeG4413 meG3450.
AndG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 fulnessG4138 haveG2983 allG3956 weG2249 receivedG2983, andG2532 graceG5485 forG473 graceG5485.
ForG3754 the lawG3551 was givenG1325 byG1223 MosesG3475, but graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225 cameG1096 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
No manG3762 hath seenG3708 GodG2316 at any timeG4455; the only begottenG3439 SonG5207, whichG3588 isG5607 inG1519 the bosomG2859 of the FatherG3962, heG1565 hath declaredG1834 him.
ThenG3767 there aroseG1096 a questionG2214 betweenG3326 some ofG1537 John'sG2491 disciplesG3101 and the JewsG2453 aboutG4012 purifyingG2512.
AndG2532 they cameG2064 untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, heG3739 that wasG2258 withG3326 theeG4675 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, to whomG3739 thouG4771 barest witnessG3140, beholdG2396, the sameG3778 baptizethG907, andG2532 allG3956 men comeG2064 toG4314 himG846.
JohnG2491 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, A manG444 canG1410+G3756 receiveG2983 nothingG3762, exceptG3362 it beG5600 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. {receive: or, take unto himself}
YeG5210 yourselvesG846 bearG3140 meG3427 witnessG3140, thatG3754 I saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 the ChristG5547, butG235 thatG3754 I amG1510 sentG649 beforeG1715 himG1565.
He that hathG2192 the brideG3565 isG2076 the bridegroomG3566: butG1161 the friendG5384 of the bridegroomG3566, whichG3588 standethG2476 andG2532 hearethG191 himG846, rejoicethG5463 greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 of the bridegroom'sG3566 voiceG5456: thisG3778 myG1699 joyG5479 thereforeG3767 is fulfilledG4137.
HeG1565 mustG1163 increaseG837, butG1161 IG1691 must decreaseG1642.
He that comethG2064 from aboveG509 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956: he that isG5607 ofG1537 the earthG1093 isG2076 earthlyG1537+G1093, andG2532 speakethG2980 ofG1537 the earthG1093: he that comethG2064 fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956.
AndG2532 whatG3739 he hath seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191, thatG5124 he testifiethG3140; andG2532 no manG3762 receivethG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141.
He that hath receivedG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141 hath set to his sealG4972 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 trueG227.
ForG1063 he whomG3739 GodG2316 hath sentG649 speakethG2980 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316: forG1063 GodG2316 givethG1325 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 byG1537 measureG3358 unto him.
The FatherG3962 lovethG25 the SonG5207, andG2532 hath givenG1325 all thingsG3956 intoG1722 hisG846 handG5495.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 hathG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG1161 he that believeth notG544 the SonG5207 shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700 lifeG2222; butG235 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidethG3306 onG1909 himG846.
YeG5210 sentG649 untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 he bare witnessG3140 unto the truthG225.
ButG1161 IG1473 receiveG2983 notG3756 testimonyG3141 fromG3844 manG444: butG235 these thingsG5023 I sayG3004, thatG2443 yeG5210 might be savedG4982.
HeG1565 wasG2258 a burningG2545 andG2532 a shiningG5316 lightG3088: andG1161 yeG5210 were willingG2309 forG4314 a seasonG5610 to rejoiceG21 inG1722 hisG846 lightG5457.
ButG1161 IG1473 haveG2192 greaterG3187 witnessG3141 than that of JohnG2491: forG1063 the worksG2041 whichG3739 the FatherG3962 hath givenG1325 meG3427 toG2443 finishG5048+G846, the sameG846 worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160, bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1700, thatG3754 the FatherG3962 hath sentG649 meG3165.
