ThenG1161 AgrippaG67 saidG5346 untoG4314 PaulG3972, ThouG4671 art permittedG2010 to speakG3004 forG5228 thyselfG4572. ThenG5119 PaulG3972 stretched forthG1614 the handG5495, and answered for himselfG626:
I thinkG2233 myselfG1683 happyG3107, kingG935 AgrippaG67, because I shallG3195 answer for myselfG626 this dayG4594 beforeG1909 theeG4675 touchingG4012 all the thingsG3956 whereofG3739 I am accusedG1458 ofG5259 the JewsG2453:
EspeciallyG3122 because I knowG1492 theeG4571 to beG5607 expertG1109+G5037 in allG3956 customsG1485 andG2532 questionsG2213 which are amongG2596 the JewsG2453: whereforeG1352 I beseechG1189 theeG4675 to hearG191 meG3450 patientlyG3116.
MyG3450 mannerG3303+G3767 of lifeG981 fromG1537 my youthG3503, whichG3588 wasG1096 atG575 the firstG746 amongG1722 mineG3450 own nationG1484 atG1722 JerusalemG2414, knowG2467 allG3956 the JewsG2453;
Which knewG4267 meG3165 from the beginningG509, ifG1437 they wouldG2309 testifyG3140, thatG3754 afterG2596 the most straitestG196 sectG139 of ourG2251 religionG2356 I livedG2198 a PhariseeG5330.
AndG2532 nowG3568 I standG2476 and am judgedG2919 forG1909 the hopeG1680 of the promiseG1860 madeG1096 ofG5259 GodG2316 untoG4314 our fathersG3962:
UntoG1519 whichG3739 promise ourG2257 twelve tribesG1429, instantlyG1722+G1616 servingG3000 God dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571, hopeG1679 to comeG2658. ForG4012 whichG3739 hope's sakeG1680, kingG935 AgrippaG67, I am accusedG1458 ofG5259 the JewsG2453. {day and night: Gr. night and day}
WhyG5101 should it be thought a thingG2919 incredibleG571 withG3844 youG5213, thatG1487 GodG2316 should raiseG1453 the deadG3498?
IG1473 verilyG3303+G3767 thoughtG1380 with myselfG1683, that I oughtG1163 to doG4238 many thingsG4183 contraryG1727 toG4314 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 of NazarethG3480.
Which thingG3739 IG4160 alsoG2532 didG4160 inG1722 JerusalemG2414: andG2532 manyG4183 of the saintsG40 didG2623 IG1473 shut upG2623 in prisonG5438, having receivedG2983 authorityG1849 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749; andG5037 when theyG846 were put to deathG337, I gaveG2702 my voiceG5586 against them.
AndG2532 I punishedG5097 themG846 oftG4178 inG2596 everyG3956 synagogueG4864, and compelledG315 them to blasphemeG987; andG5037 beingG1693 exceedinglyG4057 mad againstG1693 themG846, I persecutedG1377 them evenG2532 untoG1519+G2193 strangeG1854 citiesG4172.
WhereuponG1722+G3739 as I wentG4198 toG1519 DamascusG1154 withG3326 authorityG1849 andG2532 commissionG2011 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749,
At middayG2250+G3319, O kingG935, I sawG1492 inG2596 the wayG3598 a lightG5457 from heavenG3771, aboveG5228 the brightnessG2987 of the sunG2246, shining round aboutG4034 meG3165 andG2532 them which journeyedG4198 withG4862 meG1698.
AndG1161 when weG2257 wereG2667 allG3956 fallenG2667 toG1519 the earthG1093, I heardG191 a voiceG5456 speakingG2980 untoG4314 meG3165, andG2532 sayingG3004 in the HebrewG1446 tongueG1258, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thouG1377 meG3165? it is hardG4642 for theeG4671 to kickG2979 againstG4314 the pricksG2759.
AndG1161 IG1473 saidG2036, WhoG5101 art thouG1488, LordG2962? AndG1161 he saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 JesusG2424 whomG3739 thouG4771 persecutestG1377.
ButG235 riseG450, andG2532 standG2476 uponG1909 thyG4675 feetG4228: forG1063 I have appearedG3700 unto theeG4671 forG1519 this purposeG5124, to makeG4400 theeG4571 a ministerG5257 andG2532 a witnessG3144 bothG5037 of these things whichG3739 thou hast seenG1492, andG5037 of those things in the whichG3739 I will appearG3700 unto theeG4671;
DeliveringG1807 theeG4571 fromG1537 the peopleG2992, andG2532 from the GentilesG1484, untoG1519 whomG3739 nowG3568 I sendG649 theeG4571,
To openG455 theirG846 eyesG3788, and to turnG1994 them fromG575 darknessG4655 toG1519 lightG5457, andG2532 from the powerG1849 of SatanG4567 untoG1909 GodG2316, that theyG846 may receiveG2983 forgivenessG859 of sinsG266, andG2532 inheritanceG2819 amongG1722 them which are sanctifiedG37 by faithG4102 that is inG1519 meG1691.
WhereuponG3606, O kingG935 AgrippaG67, I wasG1096 notG3756 disobedientG545 unto the heavenlyG3770 visionG3701:
ButG235 shewedG518 firstG4412 unto them ofG1722 DamascusG1154, andG2532 at JerusalemG2414, andG5037 throughoutG1519 allG3956 the coastsG5561 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 then to the GentilesG1484, that they should repentG3340 andG2532 turnG1994 toG1909 GodG2316, and doG4238 worksG2041 meetG514 for repentanceG3341.
ForG1752 these causesG5130 the JewsG2453 caughtG4815 meG3165 inG1722 the templeG2411, and went aboutG3987 to killG1315 me.
HavingG5177 thereforeG3767 obtainedG5177 helpG1947 ofG3844 GodG2316, I continueG2476 untoG891 thisG5026 dayG2250, witnessingG3140 bothG5037 to smallG3398 andG2532 greatG3173, sayingG3004 none other thingsG3762 thanG1622 those whichG3739+G5037 the prophetsG4396 andG2532 MosesG3475 did sayG2980 shouldG3195 comeG1096:
ThatG1487 ChristG5547 should sufferG3805, and thatG1487 he should be the firstG4413 that should riseG386 fromG1537 the deadG3498, and shouldG3195 shewG2605 lightG5457 unto the peopleG2992, andG2532 to the GentilesG1484.
AndG1161 as heG846 thusG5023 spake for himselfG626, FestusG5347 saidG5346 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, PaulG3972, thou art beside thyselfG3105; muchG4183 learningG1121 doth makeG4062 theeG4571 madG1519+G3130.
ButG1161 he saidG5346, I amG3105 notG3756 madG3105, most nobleG2903 FestusG5347; butG235 speak forthG669 the wordsG4487 of truthG225 andG2532 sobernessG4997.
ForG1063 the kingG935 knowethG1987 ofG4012 theseG5130 things, beforeG4314 whomG3739 alsoG2532 I speakG2980 freelyG3955: forG1063 I am persuadedG3982 thatG3756 noneG5100+G3762 of these thingsG5130 are hiddenG2990 from himG846; forG1063 this thingG5124 wasG2076 notG3756 doneG4238 inG1722 a cornerG1137.
KingG935 AgrippaG67, believest thouG4100 the prophetsG4396? I knowG1492 thatG3754 thou believestG4100.
ThenG1161 AgrippaG67 saidG5346 untoG4314 PaulG3972, AlmostG1722+G3641 thou persuadestG3982 meG3165 to beG1096 a ChristianG5546.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 saidG2036, I wouldG302+G2172 to GodG2316, that notG3756 onlyG3440 thouG4571, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 that hearG191 meG3450 this dayG4594, wereG1096 bothG2532 almostG1722+G3641, andG2532 altogetherG1722+G4183 suchG5108 asG3697+G2504 I amG1510, exceptG3924 theseG5130 bondsG1199.
AndG2532 when heG846 hadG2036 thusG5023 spokenG2036, the kingG935 rose upG450, andG2532 the governorG2232, andG5037 BerniceG959, andG2532 they that sat withG4775 themG846:
AndG2532 when they were gone asideG402, they talkedG2980 betweenG4314 themselvesG240, sayingG3004+G3754, ThisG3778 manG444 doethG4238 nothingG3762 worthyG514 of deathG2288 orG2228 of bondsG1199.
ThenG1161 saidG5346 AgrippaG67 unto FestusG5347, ThisG3778 manG444 mightG1410 have been set at libertyG630, ifG1508 he hadG1941 notG1508 appealed untoG1941 CaesarG2541.

AndG2532 when he had receivedG2983 meatG5160, he was strengthenedG1765. ThenG1161 wasG1096 SaulG4569 certainG5100 daysG2250 withG3326 the disciplesG3101 which were atG1722 DamascusG1154.
AndG2532 straightwayG2112 he preachedG2784 ChristG5547 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3754 heG3778 isG2076 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 allG3956 that heardG191 him were amazedG1839, andG2532 saidG3004; IsG2076 notG3756 thisG3778 he that destroyedG4199 them whichG3588 called onG1941 thisG5124 nameG3686 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 cameG2064 hitherG5602 forG1519 thatG5124 intentG1519, thatG2443 he might bringG71 themG846 boundG1210 untoG1909 the chief priestsG749?
ButG1161 SaulG4569 increasedG1743 the moreG3123 in strengthG1743, andG2532 confoundedG4797 the JewsG2453 whichG3588 dweltG2730 atG1722 DamascusG1154, provingG4822 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076 very ChristG5547.
AndG2532 he wasG2258 withG3326 themG846 coming inG1531 andG2532 going outG1607 atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
DeliveringG1807 theeG4571 fromG1537 the peopleG2992, andG2532 from the GentilesG1484, untoG1519 whomG3739 nowG3568 I sendG649 theeG4571,
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 saidG5346 untoG4314 themG846, RepentG3340, andG2532 be baptizedG907 every oneG1538 of youG5216 inG1909 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266, andG2532 ye shall receiveG2983 the giftG1431 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
AndG2532 allG3956 that dweltG2730 at LyddaG3069 andG2532 SaronG4565 sawG1492 himG846, andG3748 turnedG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962.
Let the wickedH7563 forsakeH5800 his wayH1870, and the unrighteousH205 manH376 his thoughtsH4284: and let him returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068, and he will have mercyH7355 upon him; and to our GodH430, for he will abundantlyH7235 pardonH5545. {the unrighteous…: Heb. the man of iniquity} {abundantly…: Heb. multiply to pardon}
AndG2532 when he had foundG2147 himG846, he broughtG71 himG846 untoG1519 AntiochG490. AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that a wholeG3650 yearG1763 theyG846 assembled themselvesG4863 withG1722 the churchG1577, andG2532 taughtG1321 muchG2425 peopleG3793. AndG5037 the disciplesG3101 were calledG5537 ChristiansG5546 firstG4412 inG1722 AntiochG490. {with…: or, in the church}
AndG1161 inG1722 theseG5025 daysG2250 cameG2718 prophetsG4396 fromG575 JerusalemG2414 untoG1519 AntiochG490.
AndG1161 there stood upG450 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 namedG3686 AgabusG13, and signifiedG4591 byG1223 the SpiritG4151 that there should beG3195+G1510 greatG3173 dearthG3042 throughoutG1909 allG3650 the worldG3625: whichG3748+G2532 came to passG1096 in the days ofG1909 ClaudiusG2804 CaesarG2541.
ThenG1161 the disciplesG3101, everyG1538 manG846 according toG2531 his abilityG2141+G5100, determinedG3724 to sendG3992 reliefG1248 untoG1519 the brethrenG80 which dweltG2730 inG1722 JudaeaG2449:
WhichG3739 alsoG2532 they didG4160, and sent itG649 toG4314 the eldersG4245 byG1223 the handsG5495 of BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569.
AndG2532 he spakeG2980 boldlyG3955 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG5037+G2532 disputedG4802 againstG4314 the GreciansG1675: butG1161 they went aboutG2021 to slayG337 himG846.
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.
Repent yeG3340 thereforeG3767, andG2532 be convertedG1994, thatG1519 yourG5216 sinsG266 may be blotted outG1813, whenG3704 the timesG2540 of refreshingG403 shall comeG302+G2064 fromG575 the presenceG4383 of the LordG2962;
AndG2532 sayingG3004, SirsG435, whyG5101 do yeG4160 these thingsG5130? WeG2249 alsoG2532 areG2070 menG444 of like passionsG3663 with youG5213, and preachG2097 unto youG5209 that ye should turnG1994 fromG575 theseG5023 vanitiesG3152 untoG1909 the livingG2198 GodG2316, whichG3739 madeG4160 heavenG3772, andG2532 earthG1093, andG2532 the seaG2281, andG2532 all thingsG3956 that are thereinG1722+G846:
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 meetG514 for repentanceG3341: {meet…: or, answerable to amendment of life}
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that, when IG3427 was come againG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, evenG2532 while IG3450 prayedG4336 inG1722 the templeG2411, IG3165 wasG1096 inG1722 a tranceG1611;
WhoG3739 inG1722 timesG1074 pastG3944 sufferedG1439 allG3956 nationsG1484 to walkG4198 in their ownG846 waysG3598.
NeverthelessG2544+G2532 he leftG863 notG3756 himselfG1438 without witnessG267, in that he did goodG15, and gaveG1325 usG2254 rainG5205 from heavenG3771, andG2532 fruitfulG2593 seasonsG2540, fillingG1705 ourG2257 heartsG2588 with foodG5160 andG2532 gladnessG2167.
AndG2532 with theseG5023 sayingsG3004 scarceG3433 restrained theyG2664 the peopleG3793, that they hadG2380 notG3361 done sacrificeG2380 unto themG846.
AndG1161 there came thitherG1904 certain JewsG2453 fromG575 AntiochG490 andG2532 IconiumG2430, whoG2532 persuadedG3982 the peopleG3793, andG2532, having stonedG3034 PaulG3972, drewG4951 him out ofG1854 the cityG4172, supposingG3543 heG846 had been deadG2348.
HowbeitG1161, as the disciplesG3101 stood round aboutG2944 himG846, he rose upG450, and cameG1525 intoG1519 the cityG4172: andG2532 the next dayG1887 he departedG1831 withG4862 BarnabasG921 toG1519 DerbeG1191.
AndG5037 when they had preached the gospelG2097 to thatG1565 cityG4172, andG2532 had taughtG3100 manyG2425, they returned againG5290 toG1519 LystraG3082, andG2532 to IconiumG2430, andG2532 AntiochG490, {had taught many: Gr. had made many disciples}
WhenG1161 they heardG191 these thingsG5023, they held their peaceG2270, andG2532 glorifiedG1392 GodG2316, sayingG3004, ThenG686 hathG1325 GodG2316 alsoG2534 to the GentilesG1484 grantedG1325 repentanceG3341 untoG1519 lifeG2222.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
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}
AndG2532 sawG1492 himG846 sayingG3004 unto meG3427, Make hasteG4692, andG2532 get theeG1831 quicklyG5034+G1722 out ofG1537 JerusalemG2419: forG1360 they willG3858 notG3756 receiveG3858 thyG4675 testimonyG3141 concerningG4012 meG1700.
AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 meG3165, DepartG4198: forG3754 IG1473 will sendG1821 theeG4571 far henceG3112 untoG1519 the GentilesG1484.
AndG3303+G3767 the timesG5550 of this ignoranceG52 GodG2316 winked atG5237; but nowG3569 commandethG3853 allG3956 menG444 every whereG3837 to repentG3340:
All the endsH657 of the worldH776 shall rememberH2142 and turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068: and all the kindredsH4940 of the nationsH1471 shall worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thee.
AndG1161 ZacchaeusG2195 stoodG2476, and saidG2036 untoG4314 the LordG2962; BeholdG2400, LordG2962, the halfG2255 of myG3450 goodsG5224 I giveG1325 to the poorG4434; andG2532 ifG1536 I have takenG4811 any thingG1536 from any manG5100 by false accusationG4811, I restoreG591 him fourfoldG5073.
AndG1161 they gaveG191 himG846 audienceG191 untoG891 thisG5127 wordG3056, andG2532 then lifted upG1869 theirG846 voicesG5456, and saidG3004, Away withG142 suchG5108 a fellow fromG575 the earthG1093: forG1063 it isG2520 notG3756 fitG2520 that heG846 should liveG2198.
TestifyingG1263 bothG5037 to the JewsG2453, and alsoG2532 to the GreeksG1672, repentanceG3341 towardG1519 GodG2316, andG2532 faithG4102 towardG1519 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846+G3754, This dayG4594 isG1096 salvationG4991 comeG1096 to thisG5129 houseG3624, forsomuch asG2530 heG846 alsoG2532 isG2076 a sonG5207 of AbrahamG11.
BoastG2620 notG3361 againstG2620 the branchesG2798. ButG1161 ifG1487 thou boastG2620, thouG4771 bearestG941 notG3756 the rootG4491, butG235 the rootG4491 theeG4571.
Thou wilt sayG2046 thenG3767, The branchesG2798 were broken offG1575, thatG2443 IG1473 might be graffed inG1461.
WellG2573; because of unbeliefG570 they were broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771 standestG2476 by faithG4102. BeG5309 notG3361 highmindedG5309, butG235 fearG5399:
Surely afterH310 that I was turnedH7725, I repentedH5162; and afterH310 that I was instructedH3045, I smoteH5606 upon my thighH3409: I was ashamedH954, yea, even confoundedH3637, because I did bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271.
Therefore turnH7725 thou to thy GodH430: keepH8104 mercyH2617 and judgmentH4941, and waitH6960 on thy GodH430 continuallyH8548.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
Having the understandingG1271 darkenedG4654, beingG5607 alienatedG526 from the lifeG2222 of GodG2316 throughG1223 the ignoranceG52 that isG5607 inG1722 themG846, becauseG1223 of the blindnessG4457 of theirG846 heartG2588: {blindness: or, hardness}
WhoG3748 being past feelingG524 have givenG3860 themselvesG1438 overG3860 unto lasciviousnessG766, toG1519 workG2039 allG3956 uncleannessG167 withG1722 greedinessG4124.
ButG1161 yeG5210 haveG3129 notG3756 soG3779 learnedG3129 ChristG5547;
If so be thatG1489 ye have heardG191 himG846, andG2532 have been taughtG1321 byG1722 himG846, asG2531 the truthG225 isG2076 inG1722 JesusG2424:
That yeG5209 put offG659 concerningG2596 the formerG4387 conversationG391 the oldG3820 manG444, whichG3588 is corruptG5351 accordingG2596 to the deceitfulG539 lustsG1939;
AndG1161 be renewedG365 in the spiritG4151 of yourG5216 mindG3563;
AndG2532 that ye put onG1746 the newG2537 manG444, whichG3588 afterG2596 GodG2316 is createdG2936 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 trueG225 holinessG3742. {true…: or, holiness of truth}
WhereforeG1352 putting awayG659 lyingG5579, speakG2980 every manG1538 truthG225 withG3326 hisG846 neighbourG4139: forG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
Be ye angryG3710, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361: letG1931 notG3361 the sunG2246 go downG1931 uponG1909 yourG5216 wrathG3950:
NeitherG3383 giveG1325 placeG5117 to the devilG1228.
LetG2813 him that stoleG2813 stealG2813 no moreG3371: butG1161 ratherG3123 let him labourG2872, workingG2038 with his handsG5495 the thing which is goodG18, thatG2443 he may haveG2192 to giveG3330 to him that needethG5532+G2192. {to give: or, to distribute}
LetG4550 noG3361+G3956 corruptG4550 communicationG3056 proceedG1607 out ofG1537 yourG5216 mouthG4750, butG235 that whichG1536 is goodG18 toG4314 the useG5532 of edifyingG3619, thatG2443 it may ministerG1325 graceG5485 unto the hearersG191. {to…: or, to edify profitably}
AndG2532 grieveG3076 notG3361 the holyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, wherebyG1722+G3739 ye are sealedG4972 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
LetG142 allG3956 bitternessG4088, andG2532 wrathG2372, andG2532 angerG3709, andG2532 clamourG2906, andG2532 evil speakingG988, be put awayG142 fromG575 youG5216, withG4862 allG3956 maliceG2549:
AndG1161 beG1096 ye kindG5543 one to anotherG1519+G240, tenderheartedG2155, forgivingG5483 one anotherG1438, even asG2531+G2532 GodG2316 forG1722 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1722 hath forgivenG5483 youG5213.
Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 sonH1121? is he a pleasantH8191 childH3206? for sinceH1767 I spakeH1696 against him, I do earnestlyH2142 rememberH2142 him still: therefore my bowelsH4578 are troubledH1993 for him; I will surelyH7355 have mercyH7355 upon him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {are…: Heb. sound}
TakeH3947 with you wordsH1697, and turnH7725 to the LORDH3068: sayH559 unto him, Take awayH5375 all iniquityH5771, and receiveH3947 us graciouslyH2896: so will we renderH7999 the calvesH6499 of our lipsH8193. {receive…: or, give good}
BeG1096 yeG3402 thereforeG3767 followersG3402 of GodG2316, asG5613 dearG27 childrenG5043;
AndG2532 walkG4043 inG1722 loveG26, asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257 an offeringG4376 andG2532 a sacrificeG2378 to GodG2316 forG1519 a sweetsmellingG2175 savourG3744.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
NeitherG2532 filthinessG151, norG2532 foolish talkingG3473, norG2228 jestingG2160, whichG3588 areG433 notG3756 convenientG433: butG235 ratherG3123 giving of thanksG2169.
ForG1063 thisG5124 ye knowG2075+G1097, thatG3754 noG3756+G3956 whoremongerG4205, norG2228 unclean personG169, norG2228 covetous manG4123, whoG3739 isG2076 an idolaterG1496, hathG2192 any inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of ChristG5547 andG2532 of GodG2316.
LetG538 no manG3367 deceiveG538 youG5209 with vainG2756 wordsG3056: forG1063 becauseG1223 of these thingsG5023 comethG2064 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 uponG1909 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543. {disobedience: or, unbelief}
BeG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 with themG846.
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457:
(ForG1063 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225;)
ProvingG1381 whatG5101 isG2076 acceptableG2101 unto the LordG2962.
AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darknessG4655, butG1161 ratherG3123+G2532 reproveG1651 them.
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
ButG1161 all thingsG3956 that are reprovedG1651 are made manifestG5319 byG5259 the lightG5457: forG1063 whatsoeverG3956 doth make manifestG5319 isG2076 lightG5457. {reproved: or, discovered}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, Awake thouG1453 that sleepestG2518, andG2532 ariseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 ChristG5547 shall giveG2017 theeG4671 lightG2017. {he: or, it}
SeeG991 thenG3767 thatG4459 ye walkG4043 circumspectlyG199, notG3361 asG5613 foolsG781, butG235 asG5613 wiseG4680,
RedeemingG1805 the timeG2540, becauseG3754 the daysG2250 areG1526 evilG4190.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 be yeG1096 notG3361 unwiseG878, butG235 understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
AndG2532 beG3182 notG3361 drunkG3182 with wineG3631, whereinG1722+G3739 isG2076 excessG810; butG235 be filledG4137 withG1722 the SpiritG4151;
SpeakingG2980 to yourselvesG1438 in psalmsG5568 andG2532 hymnsG5215 andG2532 spiritualG4152 songsG5603, singingG103 andG2532 making melodyG5567 inG1722 yourG5216 heartG2588 to the LordG2962;
Giving thanksG2168 alwaysG3842 forG5228 all thingsG3956 unto GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547;
Submitting yourselvesG5293 one to anotherG240 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
WivesG1135, submit yourselvesG5293 unto your ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto the LordG2962.
ForG3754 the husbandG435 isG2076 the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the churchG1577: andG2532 heG846 isG2076 the saviourG4990 of the bodyG4983.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
Therefore I will judgeH8199 you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, every oneH376 according to his waysH1870, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from all your transgressionsH6588; so iniquityH5771 shall not be your ruinH4383. {yourselves: or, others}
Cast awayH7993 from you all your transgressionsH6588, whereby ye have transgressedH6586; and makeH6213 you a newH2319 heartH3820 and a newH2319 spiritH7307: for why will ye dieH4191, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?
For I have no pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of him that diethH4191, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069: wherefore turnH7725 yourselves, and liveH2421 ye. {yourselves: or, others}
AndG2532 manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962 theirG846 GodG2316.
ChildrenG5043, obeyG5219 yourG5216 parentsG1118 inG1722 the LordG2962: forG1063 thisG5124 isG2076 rightG1342.
HonourG5091 thyG4675 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384; (whichG3748 isG2076 the firstG4413 commandmentG1785 withG1722 promiseG1860;)
ThatG2443 it may beG1096 wellG2095 with theeG4671, andG2532 thou mayestG2071 live longG3118 onG1909 the earthG1093.
AndG2532, ye fathersG3962, provokeG3949 notG3361 yourG5216 childrenG5043 to wrathG3949: butG235 bringG1625 themG846 upG1625 inG1722 the nurtureG3809 andG2532 admonitionG3559 of the LordG2962.
ServantsG1401, be obedientG5219 to them that are your mastersG2962 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156, inG1722 singlenessG572 of yourG5216 heartG2588, asG5613 unto ChristG5547;
NotG3361 withG2596 eyeserviceG3787, asG5613 menpleasersG441; butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of ChristG5547, doingG4160 the willG2307 of GodG2316 fromG1537 the heartG5590;
WithG3326 good willG2133 doing serviceG1398, as to the LordG2962, andG2532 notG3756 to menG444:
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 whatsoeverG3739+G1437+G5100 good thingG18 any manG1538 doethG4160, the sameG5124 shall he receiveG2865 ofG3844 the LordG2962, whetherG1535 he be bondG1401 orG1535 freeG1658.
AndG2532, ye mastersG2962, doG4160 the same thingsG846 untoG4314 themG846, forbearingG447 threateningG547: knowingG1492 thatG3754 yourG5216+G846 MasterG2962 alsoG2532 isG2076 inG1722 heavenG3772; neitherG2532+G3756 is thereG2076 respect of personsG4382 withG3844 himG846. {forbearing: or, moderating} {your…: some read, both your and their Master}
NeverthelessG1161 whenG2259 itG302 shall turnG1994 toG4314 the LordG2962, the vailG2571 shall be taken awayG4014.
That the aged menG4246 beG1511 soberG3524, graveG4586, temperateG4998, soundG5198 in faithG4102, in charityG26, in patienceG5281. {sober: or, vigilant}
The aged womenG4247 likewiseG5615, that they be inG1722 behaviourG2688 as becometh holinessG2412, notG3361 false accusersG1228, notG3361 givenG1402 to muchG4183 wineG3631, teachers of good thingsG2567; {holiness: or, holy women} {false…: or, one who foments strife}
ThatG2443 they may teachG4994 the young womenG3501 to beG1511 soberG4994, to love their husbandsG5362, to love their childrenG5388, {sober: or, wise}
To be discreetG4998, chasteG53, keepers at homeG3626, goodG18, obedientG5293 to their ownG2398 husbandsG435, thatG3363 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 beG987 notG3363 blasphemedG987.
Young menG3501 likewiseG5615 exhortG3870 to be sober mindedG4993. {sober…: or, discreet}
InG4012 all thingsG3956 shewingG3930 thyselfG4572 a patternG5179 of goodG2570 worksG2041: inG1722 doctrineG1319 shewing uncorruptnessG90, gravityG4587, sincerityG861,
SoundG5199 speechG3056, that cannot be condemnedG176; thatG2443 he that is ofG1537 the contrary partG1727 may be ashamedG1788, havingG2192 noG3367 evilG5337 thingG3367 to sayG3004 ofG4012 youG5216.
Exhort servantsG1401 to be obedientG5293 unto their ownG2398 mastersG1203, and toG1511 please them wellG2101 inG1722 allG3956 things; notG3361 answering againG483; {answering…: or, gainsaying}
NotG3361 purloiningG3557, butG235 shewingG1731 allG3956 goodG18 fidelityG4102; thatG2443 they may adornG2885 the doctrineG1319 of GodG2316 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
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}
FromG575 that timeG5119 JesusG2424 beganG756 to preachG2784, andG2532 to sayG3004, RepentG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
ForG1063 theyG518 themselvesG846 shewG518 ofG4012 usG2257 what mannerG3697 of entering inG1529 we hadG2192 untoG4314 youG5209, andG2532 howG4459 ye turnedG1994 toG4314 GodG2316 fromG575 idolsG1497 to serveG1398 the livingG2198 andG2532 trueG228 GodG2316;
AsG5613 obedientG5218 childrenG5043, notG3361 fashioning yourselves according toG4964 the formerG4386 lustsG1939 inG1722 yourG5216 ignoranceG52:
ButG235 asG2596 he which hath calledG2564 youG5209 is holyG40, soG2532 beG1096 yeG846 holyG40 inG1722 allG3956 manner of conversationG391;
BecauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, Be yeG1096 holyG40; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.
ButG1161 go yeG4198 and learnG3129 whatG5101 that meanethG2076, I willG2309 have mercyG1656, andG2532 notG3756 sacrificeG2378: forG1063 I amG2064 notG3756 comeG2064 to callG2564 the righteousG1342, butG235 sinnersG268 toG1519 repentanceG3341.
ButG1161 yeG5210 are a chosenG1588 generationG1085, a royalG934 priesthoodG2406, an holyG40 nationG1484, a peculiarG1519+G4047 peopleG2992; thatG3704 ye should shew forthG1804 the praisesG703 of him who hath calledG2564 youG5209 out ofG1537 darknessG4655 intoG1519 hisG846 marvellousG2298 lightG5457: {peculiar: or, purchased} {praises: or, virtues}
WhichG3588 in time pastG4218 were notG3756 a peopleG2992, butG1161 are nowG3568 the peopleG2992 of GodG2316: whichG3588 hadG1653 notG3756 obtained mercyG1653, butG1161 nowG3568 have obtained mercyG1653.
Dearly belovedG27, I beseechG3870 you asG5613 strangersG3941 andG2532 pilgrimsG3927, abstain fromG567 fleshlyG4559 lustsG1939, whichG3748 warG4754 againstG2596 the soulG5590;
HavingG2192 yourG5216 conversationG391 honestG2570 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484: thatG2443, whereasG1722+G3739 they speak againstG2635 youG5216 asG5613 evildoersG2555, they mayG1392 byG1537 your goodG2570 worksG2041, which they shall beholdG2029, glorifyG1392 GodG2316 inG1722 the dayG2250 of visitationG1984. {whereas: or, wherein}
AndG2532 he cameG4334 to the secondG1208, and saidG2036 likewiseG5615. AndG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, IG1473 go, sirG2962: andG2532 wentG565 notG3756.
WhetherG5101 ofG1537 them twainG1417 didG4160 the willG2307 of his fatherG3962? They sayG3004 unto himG846, The firstG4413. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 the publicansG5057 andG2532 the harlotsG4204 goG4254 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 beforeG4254 youG5209.
ForG1063 JohnG2491 cameG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 inG1722 the wayG3598 of righteousnessG1343, andG2532 ye believedG4100 himG846 notG3756: butG1161 the publicansG5057 andG2532 the harlotsG4204 believedG4100 himG846: andG1161 yeG5210, when ye had seenG1492 it, repentedG3338 notG3756 afterwardG5305, that ye might believeG4100 himG846.
ThatG1519 heG980 no longerG3371 should liveG980 the restG1954 of his timeG5550 inG1722 the fleshG4561 to the lustsG1939 of menG444, butG235 to the willG2307 of GodG2316.
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:
WhereinG1722+G3739 they think it strangeG3579 that yeG5216 runG4936 notG3361 with them toG1519 the sameG846 excessG401 of riotG810, speaking evil ofG987 you:
WhoG3739 shall giveG591 accountG3056 to him that isG2192 readyG2093 to judgeG2919 the quickG2198 andG2532 the deadG3498.
AndG2532+G1161 besideG846 thisG5124, givingG3923 allG3956 diligenceG4710, addG2023 toG1722 yourG5216 faithG4102 virtueG703; andG1161 toG1722 virtueG703 knowledgeG1108;
AndG1161 toG1722 knowledgeG1108 temperanceG1466; andG1161 toG1722 temperanceG1466 patienceG5281; andG1161 toG1722 patienceG5281 godlinessG2150;
AndG1161 toG1722 godlinessG2150 brotherly kindnessG5360; andG1161 toG1722 brotherly kindnessG5360 charityG26.
ForG1063 if these thingsG5023 beG5225 in youG5213, andG2532 aboundG4121, they makeG2525 you that ye shall neitherG3756 be barrenG692 norG3761 unfruitfulG175 inG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {barren: Gr. idle}
I tellG3004 youG5213, NayG3780: butG235, exceptG3362 ye repentG3340, ye shallG622 allG3956 likewiseG5615 perishG622.
I tellG3004 youG5213, NayG3780: butG235, exceptG3362 ye repentG3340, ye shallG622 allG3956 likewiseG3668 perishG622.
I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 likewiseG3779 joyG5479 shall beG2071 inG1722 heavenG3772 overG1909 oneG1520 sinnerG268 that repentethG3340, more thanG2228 overG1909 ninety and nineG1768 just personsG1342, whichG3748 needG2192+G5532 noG3756 repentanceG3341.
LikewiseG3779, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, there isG1096 joyG5479 in the presenceG1799 of the angelsG32 of GodG2316 overG1909 oneG1520 sinnerG268 that repentethG3340.
AndG2532 saidG2036 unto themG846, ThusG3754+G3779 it is writtenG1125, andG2532 thusG3779 it behovedG1163 ChristG5547 to sufferG3958, andG2532 to riseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498 the thirdG5154 dayG2250:
AndG2532 that repentanceG3341 andG2532 remissionG859 of sinsG266 should be preachedG2784 inG1909 hisG846 nameG3686 amongG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484, beginningG756 atG575 JerusalemG2419.
OrG2228 despisest thouG2706 the richesG4149 of hisG846 goodnessG5544 andG2532 forbearanceG463 andG2532 longsufferingG3115; not knowingG50 thatG3754 the goodnessG5543 of GodG2316 leadethG71 theeG4571 toG1519 repentanceG3341?
ForG1063 godlyG2316+G2596 sorrowG3077 workethG2716 repentanceG3341 toG1519 salvationG4991 not to be repented ofG278: butG1161 the sorrowG3077 of the worldG2889 workethG2716 deathG2288.
InG1722 meeknessG4236 instructingG3811 those that oppose themselvesG475; ifG3379 GodG2316 peradventureG3379 will giveG1325 themG846 repentanceG3341 toG1519 the acknowledgingG1922 of the truthG225;
AndG2532 that they may recover themselvesG366 out ofG1537 the snareG3803 of the devilG1228, who are taken captiveG2221 byG5259 himG846 atG1519 hisG1565 willG2307. {recover…: Gr. awake} {taken…: Gr. taken alive}
RememberG3421 thereforeG3767 from whenceG4159 thou art fallenG1601, andG2532 repentG3340, andG2532 doG4160 the firstG4413 worksG2041; or elseG1490 I will comeG2064 unto theeG4671 quicklyG5035, andG2532 will removeG2795 thyG4675 candlestickG3087 out ofG1537 hisG846 placeG5117, exceptG3362 thou repentG3340.
AndG2532 I gaveG1325 herG846 spaceG5550 toG2443 repentG3340 ofG1537 herG846 fornicationG4202; andG2532 she repentedG3340 notG3756.
RememberG3421 thereforeG3767 howG4459 thou hast receivedG2983 andG2532 heardG191, andG2532 hold fastG5083, andG2532 repentG3340. IfG3362 thereforeG3767 thou shaltG1127 notG3362 watchG1127, I will comeG2240 onG1909 theeG4571 asG5613 a thiefG2812, andG2532 thou shaltG1097 notG3364 knowG1097 whatG4169 hourG5610 I will comeG2240 uponG1909 theeG4571.
