AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG3303+G3767 being brought on their wayG4311 byG5259 the churchG1577, they passed throughG1330 PheniceG5403 andG2532 SamariaG4540, declaringG1555 the conversionG1995 of the GentilesG1484: andG2532 they causedG4160 greatG3173 joyG5479 unto allG3956 the brethrenG80.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 there rose upG1817 certainG5100 ofG575 the sectG139 of the PhariseesG5330 which believedG4100, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 it was needfulG1163 to circumciseG4059 themG846, andG5037 to commandG3853 them to keepG5083 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. {rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain}
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
AndG1161 when there had beenG1096 muchG4183 disputingG4803, PeterG4074 rose upG450, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, yeG5210 knowG1987 how thatG3754 a goodG744 whileG2250 agoG575 GodG2316 made choiceG1586 amongG1722 usG2254, that the GentilesG1484 byG1223 myG3450 mouthG4750 should hearG191 the wordG3056 of the gospelG2098, andG2532 believeG4100.
AndG2532 GodG2316, which knoweth the heartsG2589, bare themG846 witnessG3140, givingG1325 themG846 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2532 asG2531 he did unto usG2254;
AndG2532 putG1252 noG3762 differenceG1252 betweenG3342+G5037 usG2257 andG2532 themG846, purifyingG2511 theirG846 heartsG2588 by faithG4102.
NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 tempt yeG3985 GodG2316, to putG2007 a yokeG2218 uponG1909 the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101, whichG3739 neitherG3777 ourG2257 fathersG3962 norG3777 weG2249 were ableG2480 to bearG941?
ButG235 we believeG4100 that throughG1223 the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 we shall be savedG4982, evenG2596+G3739 asG5158 theyG2548.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 gave audienceG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 themG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 they had heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435 and brethrenG80, hearkenG191 unto meG3450:
SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 did visitG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 out ofG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 the ruinsG2679 thereofG846, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461:
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
ButG235 that we writeG1989 unto themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from fornicationG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596+G3956 sabbath dayG4521.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495+G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 unto the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791:
Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 which went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291:
It seemed goodG1380 unto usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 untoG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972,
MenG444 that have hazardedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056. {mouth: Gr. word}
ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876;
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
SoG3303+G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992:
Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874. {consolation: or, exhortation}
And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them.
AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a spaceG5550, they were let goG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 untoG4314 the apostlesG652.
NotwithstandingG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961.
PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 untoG4314 BarnabasG921+G1211, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722+G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138.
ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041.
AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departed asunderG673 one from the otherG575+G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 untoG1519 CyprusG2954;
AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being recommendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 unto the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
Querverweise zu Apostelgeschichte 15,20 Apg 15,20
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
ButG1161 nowG3570 I have writtenG1125 unto youG5213 notG3361 to keep companyG4874, ifG1437 any manG5100 that is calledG3687 a brotherG80 beG2228 a fornicatorG4205, orG2228 covetousG4123, orG2228 an idolaterG1496, orG2228 a railerG3060, orG2228 a drunkardG3183, orG2228 an extortionerG727; with such an oneG5108 no notG3366 to eatG4906.
AsG1161 touchingG4012 the GentilesG1484 which believeG4100, weG2249 have writtenG1989 and concludedG2919 that theyG846 observeG5083 noG3367 such thingG5108, save onlyG1508 that they keepG5442 themselvesG846 fromG5037 things offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202.
Then JacobH3290 saidH559 unto his householdH1004, and to all that were with him, Put awayH5493 the strangeH5236 godsH430 that are among youH8432, and be cleanH2891, and changeH2498 your garmentsH8071:
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 the unrighteousG94 shallG2816 notG3756 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316? BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: neitherG3777 fornicatorsG4205, norG3777 idolatersG1496, norG3777 adulterersG3432, norG3777 effeminateG3120, norG3777 abusers of themselves with mankindG733,
ButH389 fleshH1320 with the lifeH5315 thereof, which is the bloodH1818 thereof, shall ye not eatH398.
Thou shalt have no otherH312 godsH430 before meH6440.
Thou shalt not makeH6213 unto thee any graven imageH6459, or any likenessH8544 of any thing thatH834 is in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or that is in the earthH776 beneath, or that is in the waterH4325 under the earthH776:
Thou shalt not bow downH7812 thyself to them, nor serveH5647 them: for I the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 am a jealousH7067 GodH410, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the childrenH1121 unto the thirdH8029 and fourthH7256 generation of them that hateH8130 me;
MeatsG1033 for the bellyG2836, andG2532 the bellyG2836 for meatsG1033: butG1161 GodG2316 shall destroyG2673 bothG2532 itG5026 andG2532 themG5023. NowG1161 the bodyG4983 is notG3756 for fornicationG4202, butG235 for the LordG2962; andG2532 the LordG2962 for the bodyG4983. {Meats: not flesh only, but food of any kind}
It shall be a perpetualH5769 statuteH2708 for your generationsH1755 throughout all your dwellingsH4186, that ye eatH398 neither fatH2459 nor bloodH1818.
Ye shall not makeH6213 with me godsH430 of silverH3701, neither shall ye makeH6213 unto you godsH430 of goldH2091.
FleeG5343 fornicationG4202. EveryG3956 sinG265 thatG3739+G1437 a manG444 doethG4160 isG2076 withoutG1622 the bodyG4983; butG1161 he that committeth fornicationG4203 sinnethG264 againstG1519 his ownG2398 bodyG4983.
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Ye shall eatH398 no manner of fatH2459, of oxH7794, or of sheepH3775, or of goatH5795.
And the fatH2459 of the beast that dieth of itselfH5038, and the fatH2459 of that which is torn with beastsH2966, may be usedH6213 in any other useH4399: but ye shall in no wiseH398 eatH398 of it. {beast…: Heb. carcase}
For whosoever eatethH398 the fatH2459 of the beastH929, of which men offerH7126 an offering made by fireH801 unto the LORDH3068, even the soulH5315 that eatethH398 it shall be cut offH3772 from his peopleH5971.
Moreover ye shall eatH398 no manner of bloodH1818, whether it be of fowlH5775 or of beastH929, in any of your dwellingsH4186.
Whatsoever soulH5315 it be that eatethH398 any mannerH3605 of bloodH1818, even that soulH5315 shall be cut offH3772 from his peopleH5971.
Lest thou makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, and they go a whoringH2181 afterH310 their godsH430, and do sacrificeH2076 unto their godsH430, and one callH7121 thee, and thou eatH398 of his sacrificeH2077;
NeverthelessG1223+G1161, to avoid fornicationG4202, letG2192 every manG1538 haveG2192 his ownG1438 wifeG1135, andG2532 letG2192 every womanG1538 haveG2192 her ownG2398 husbandG435.
And whatsoever manH376 there be of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangersH1616 that sojournH1481 amongH8432 you, that eatethH398 any manner of bloodH1818; I will even setH5414 my faceH6440 against that soulH5315 that eatethH398 bloodH1818, and will cut him offH3772 from amongH7130 his peopleH5971.
For the lifeH5315 of the fleshH1320 is in the bloodH1818: and I have givenH5414 it to you upon the altarH4196 to make an atonementH3722 for your soulsH5315: for it is the bloodH1818 that maketh an atonementH3722 for the soulH5315.
Therefore I saidH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, No soulH5315 of you shall eatH398 bloodH1818, neither shall any strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 amongH8432 you eatH398 bloodH1818.
And whatsoever manH376 there be of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangersH1616 that sojournH1481 amongH8432 you, which huntethH6679 and catchethH6718 any beastH2416 or fowlH5775 that may be eatenH398; he shall even pourH8210 out the bloodH1818 thereof, and coverH3680 it with dustH6083. {which…: Heb. that hunteth any hunting}
For it is the lifeH5315 of all fleshH1320; the bloodH1818 of it is for the lifeH5315 thereof: therefore I saidH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, Ye shall eatH398 the bloodH1818 of no manner of fleshH1320: for the lifeH5315 of all fleshH1320 is the bloodH1818 thereof: whosoever eatethH398 it shall be cut offH3772.
And thou takeH3947 of their daughtersH1323 unto thy sonsH1121, and their daughtersH1323 go a whoringH2181 afterH310 their godsH430, and makeH2181 thy sonsH1121 go a whoringH2181 afterH310 their godsH430.
And lestG3361, when I comeG2064 againG3825, myG3450 GodG2316 will humbleG5013 meG3165 amongG4314 youG5209, andG2532 that I shall bewailG3996 manyG4183 whichG3588 have sinned alreadyG4258, andG2532 haveG3340 notG3361 repentedG3340 ofG1909 the uncleannessG167 andG2532 fornicationG4202 andG2532 lasciviousnessG766 whichG3739 they have committedG4238.
And they calledH7121 the peopleH5971 unto the sacrificesH2077 of their godsH430: and the peopleH5971 did eatH398, and bowed downH7812 to their godsH430.
NowG1161 the worksG2041 of the fleshG4561 areG2076 manifestG5318, whichG3748 areG2076 these; AdulteryG3430, fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, lasciviousnessG766,
Only be sureH2388 that thou eatH398 not the bloodH1818: for the bloodH1818 is the lifeH5315; and thou mayest not eatH398 the lifeH5315 with the fleshH1320. {be…: Heb. be strong}
Thou shalt not eatH398 it; thou shalt pourH8210 it upon the earthH776 as waterH4325.
Thou shalt not eatH398 it; that it may go wellH3190 with thee, and with thy childrenH1121 afterH310 thee, when thou shalt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
Yea, they sacrificedH2076 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 unto devilsH7700,
And shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, even the bloodH1818 of their sonsH1121 and of their daughtersH1323, whom they sacrificedH2076 unto the idolsH6091 of CanaanH3667: and the landH776 was pollutedH2610 with bloodH1818.
Thus were they defiledH2930 with their own worksH4639, and went a whoringH2181 with their own inventionsH4611.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
Ye shall not eatH398 of any thing that dieth of itselfH5038: thou shalt giveH5414 it unto the strangerH1616 that is in thy gatesH8179, that he may eatH398 it; or thou mayest sellH4376 it unto an alienH5237: for thou art an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430. Thou shalt not seetheH1310 a kidH1423 in his mother'sH517 milkH2461.
Wherefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Are ye pollutedH2930 after the mannerH1870 of your fathersH1? and commit ye whoredomH2181 afterH310 their abominationsH8251?
MortifyG3499 thereforeG3767 yourG5216 membersG3196 whichG3588 are uponG1909 the earthG1093; fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, inordinate affectionG3806, evilG2556 concupiscenceG1939, andG2532 covetousnessG4124, whichG3748 isG2076 idolatryG1495:
Only thou shalt not eatH398 the bloodH1818 thereof; thou shalt pourH8210 it upon the groundH776 as waterH4325.
For when ye offerH5375 your giftsH4979, when ye make your sonsH1121 to pass throughH5674 the fireH784, ye polluteH2930 yourselves with all your idolsH1544, even unto this dayH3117: and shall I be enquiredH1875 of by you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will not be enquiredH1875 of by you.
ForG1063 thisG5124 isG2076 the willG2307 of GodG2316, even yourG5216 sanctificationG38, that yeG5209 should abstainG567 fromG575 fornicationG4202:
And the peopleH5971 flewH5860+H6213 upon the spoilH7998, and tookH3947 sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and calvesH1121, and slewH7819 them on the groundH776: and the peopleH5971 did eatH398 them with the bloodH1818.
NowG1161 as touchingG4012 things offered unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192 knowledgeG1108. KnowledgeG1108 puffeth upG5448, butG1161 charityG26 edifiethG3618.
LestG3361 there be anyG5100 fornicatorG4205, orG2228 profane personG952, asG5613 EsauG2269, whoG3739 forG473 oneG3391 morsel of meatG1035 soldG591 hisG846 birthrightG4415.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, my soulH5315 hath not been pollutedH2930: for from my youthH5271 up even till now have I not eatenH398 of that which dieth of itselfH5038, or is torn in piecesH2966; neither cameH935 there abominableH6292 fleshH1320 into my mouthH6310.
As concerningG4012 thereforeG3767 the eatingG1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 an idolG1497 is nothingG3762 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 thatG3754 there is noneG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1508 oneG1520.
ForG1063 thoughG1512+G2532 there beG1526 that are calledG3004 godsG2316, whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 inG1909 earthG1093, (asG5618 there beG1526 godsG2316 manyG4183, andG2532 lordsG2962 manyG4183,)
ButG235 to usG2254 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3962, ofG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 himG846. {in: or, for}
HowbeitG235 there is notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068 it asG5613 a thing offered unto an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607 weakG772 is defiledG3435.
ButG1161 meatG1033 commendethG3936 usG2248 notG3756 to GodG2316: forG1063 neitherG3777, ifG1437 we eatG5315, are we the betterG4052; neitherG3777, ifG3362 we eatG5315 notG3362, are we the worseG5302. {are we the better: or, have we the more} {are we the worse: or, have we the less}
ButG1161 take heedG991 lestG3381 by any meansG4458 thisG3778 libertyG1849 of yoursG5216 becomeG1096 a stumblingblockG4348 to them that are weakG770. {liberty: or, power}
ForG1063 ifG1437 any manG5100 seeG1492 theeG4571 whichG3588 hastG2192 knowledgeG1108 sit at meatG2621 inG1722 the idol's templeG1493, shallG3618 notG3780 the conscienceG4893 of himG846 which isG5607 weakG772 be emboldenedG3618+G1519 to eatG2068 those things which are offered to idolsG1494; {emboldened: Gr. edified}
AndG2532 throughG1909 thyG4674 knowledgeG1108 shallG622 the weakG770 brotherG80 perishG622, forG1223 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599?
ButG1161 when ye sinG264 soG3779 againstG1519 the brethrenG80, andG2532 woundG5180 theirG846 weakG770 conscienceG4893, ye sinG264 againstG1519 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1355, ifG1487 meatG1033 makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624, I will eatG5315 noG3364 fleshG2907 while the world standethG1519+G165, lestG3363 I makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624.
MarriageG1062 is honourableG5093 inG1722 allG3956, andG2532 the bedG2845 undefiledG283: butG1161 whoremongersG4205 andG2532 adulterersG3432 GodG2316 will judgeG2919.
Wherefore sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Ye eatH398 with the bloodH1818, and lift upH5375 your eyesH5869 toward your idolsH1544, and shedH8210 bloodH1818: and shall ye possessH3423 the landH776?
ButG235 I say, thatG3754 the things whichG3739 the GentilesG1484 sacrificeG2380, they sacrificeG2380 to devilsG1140, andG2532 notG3756 to GodG2316: andG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 that yeG5209 should haveG1096 fellowshipG2844 with devilsG1140.
Ye cannotG3756+G1410 drinkG4095 the cupG4221 of the LordG2962, andG2532 the cupG4221 of devilsG1140: ye cannotG3756+G1410 be partakersG3348 of the Lord'sG2962 tableG5132, andG2532 of the tableG5132 of devilsG1140.
Do we provokeG2228+G3863 the LordG2962 to jealousyG3863? are weG2070 stronger thanG3361+G2478 heG846?
ForG1063 the timeG5550 pastG3928 of our lifeG979 may sufficeG713 usG2254 to have wroughtG2716 the willG2307 of the GentilesG1484, when we walkedG4198 inG1722 lasciviousnessG766, lustsG1939, excess of wineG3632, revellingsG2970, banquetingsG4224, andG2532 abominableG111 idolatriesG1495:
ForG3754 everyG3956 creatureG2938 of GodG2316 is goodG2570, andG2532 nothingG3762 to be refusedG579, if it be receivedG2983 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169:
ButG1161 ifG1437 any manG5100 sayG2036 unto youG5213, ThisG5124 isG2076 offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, eatG2068 notG3361 forG1223 his sakeG1565 that shewed itG3377, andG2532 for conscience sakeG4893: forG1063 the earthG1093 is the Lord'sG2962, andG2532 the fulnessG4138 thereofG846:
ButG235 I haveG2192 a few thingsG3641 againstG2596 theeG4675, becauseG3754 thou hastG2192 thereG1563 them that holdG2902 the doctrineG1322 of BalaamG903, whoG3739 taughtG1722+G1321 BalacG904 to castG906 a stumblingblockG4625 beforeG1799 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474, to eatG5315 things sacrificed unto idolsG1494, andG2532 to commit fornicationG4203.
NotwithstandingG235 I haveG2192 a few thingsG3641 againstG2596 theeG4675, becauseG3754 thou sufferestG1439 that womanG1135 JezebelG2403, whichG3588 callethG3004 herselfG1438 a prophetessG4398, to teachG1321 andG2532 to seduceG4105 myG1699 servantsG1401 to commit fornicationG4203, andG2532 to eatG5315 things sacrificed unto idolsG1494.
AndG2532 the restG3062 of the menG444 whichG3739 wereG615 notG3756 killedG615 byG1722 theseG5025 plaguesG4127 yetG3777 repentedG3340 notG3777 ofG1537 the worksG2041 of theirG846 handsG5495, thatG3363 they shouldG4352 notG3363 worshipG4352 devilsG1140, andG2532 idolsG1497 of goldG5552, andG2532 silverG693, andG2532 brassG5470, andG2532 stoneG3035, andG2532 of woodG3585: whichG3739 neitherG3777 canG1410 seeG991, norG3777 hearG191, norG3777 walkG4043:
AndG2532 he hadG2192 inG1722 hisG846 handG5495 a little bookG974 openG455: andG2532 he setG5087 hisG846 rightG1188 footG4228 uponG1909 the seaG2281, andG1161 his leftG2176 foot onG1909 the earthG1093,
AndG2532 the voiceG5456 whichG3739 I heardG191 fromG1537 heavenG3772 spakeG2980 untoG3326 meG1700 againG3825, andG2532 saidG3004, GoG5217 and takeG2983 the little bookG974 whichG3588 is openG455 inG1722 the handG5495 of the angelG32 whichG3588 standethG2476 uponG1909 the seaG2281 andG2532 uponG1909 the earthG1093.
