Therefore seeingG1223+G5124 we haveG2192 thisG5026 ministryG1248, asG2531 we have received mercyG1653, we faintG1573 notG3756;
ButG235 have renouncedG550 the hidden thingsG2927 of dishonestyG152, notG3361 walkingG4043 inG1722 craftinessG3834, norG3366 handlingG1389 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 deceitfullyG1389; butG235 by manifestationG5321 of the truthG225 commendingG4921 ourselvesG1438 toG4314 everyG3956 man'sG444 conscienceG4893 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316. {dishonesty: Gr. shame}
ButG1161 ifG1499 ourG2257 gospelG2098 beG2076 hidG2572, it isG2076 hidG2572 toG1722 them that are lostG622:
InG1722 whomG3739 the godG2316 of thisG5127 worldG165 hath blindedG5186 the mindsG3540 of them which believe notG571, lestG1519+G3361 the lightG5462 of the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of GodG2316, should shineG826 unto themG846.
ForG1063 we preachG2784 notG3756 ourselvesG1438, butG235 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 the LordG2962; andG1161 ourselvesG1438 yourG5216 servantsG1401 forG1223 Jesus'G2424 sakeG1223.
ForG3754 GodG2316, whoG3588 commandedG2036 the lightG5457 to shineG2989 out ofG1537 darknessG4655+G3739, hath shinedG2989 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588, toG4314 give the lightG5462 of the knowledgeG1108 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 inG1722 the faceG4383 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {hath: Gr. is he who hath}
ButG1161 we haveG2192 thisG5126 treasureG2344 inG1722 earthenG3749 vesselsG4632, thatG2443 the excellencyG5236 of the powerG1411 may beG5600 of GodG2316, andG2532 notG3361 ofG1537 usG2257.
We are troubledG2346 onG1722 every sideG3956, yetG235 notG3756 distressedG4729; we are perplexedG639, butG235 notG3756 in despairG1820; {in despair: or, altogether without help, or, means}
PersecutedG1377, butG235 notG3756 forsakenG1459; cast downG2598, butG235 notG3756 destroyedG622;
AlwaysG3842 bearing aboutG4064 inG1722 the bodyG4983 the dyingG3500 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, thatG2443 the lifeG2222 alsoG2532 of JesusG2424 might be made manifestG5319 inG1722 ourG2257 bodyG4983.
For weG2249 whichG3588 liveG2198 areG3860 alwayG104+G1063 deliveredG3860 untoG1519 deathG2288 forG1223 Jesus'G2424 sakeG1223, thatG2443 the lifeG2222 alsoG2532 of JesusG2424 might be made manifestG5319 inG1722 ourG2257 mortalG2349 fleshG4561.
SoG5620 thenG3303 deathG2288 workethG1754 inG1722 usG2254, butG1161 lifeG2222 inG1722 youG5213.
We havingG2192 the sameG846 spiritG4151 of faithG4102, according asG2596 it is writtenG1125, I believedG4100, and thereforeG1352 have I spokenG2980; weG2249 alsoG2532 believeG4100, andG2532 thereforeG1352 speakG2980;
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 he which raised upG1453 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 shall raise upG1453 usG2248 alsoG2532 byG1223 JesusG2424, andG2532 shall presentG3936 us withG4862 youG5213.
ForG1063 all thingsG3956 are forG1223 yourG5209 sakesG1223, thatG2443 the abundantG4121 graceG5485 mightG4052 throughG1223 the thanksgivingG2169 of manyG4119 redoundG4052 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
For which causeG1352 we faintG1573 notG3756; butG235 thoughG1499 ourG2257 outwardG1854 manG444 perishG1311, yetG235 the inwardG2081 man is renewedG341 dayG2250 byG2532 dayG2250.
ForG1063 ourG2257 lightG1645 afflictionG2347, whichG3588 is but for a momentG3910, workethG2716 for usG2254 a farG2596+G5236 more exceedingG1519+G5236 and eternalG166 weightG922 of gloryG1391;
WhileG4648 weG2257 lookG4648 notG3361 atG4648 the things which are seenG991, butG235 at the things which areG991 notG3361 seenG991: forG1063 the things which are seenG991 are temporalG4340; butG1161 the things which areG991 notG3361 seenG991 are eternalG166.

Therefore seeingG1223+G5124 we haveG2192 thisG5026 ministryG1248, asG2531 we have received mercyG1653, we faintG1573 notG3756;
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 ifG1437 ourG2257 earthlyG1919 houseG3614 of this tabernacleG4636 were dissolvedG2647, we haveG2192 a buildingG3619 ofG1537 GodG2316, an houseG3614 not made with handsG886, eternalG166 inG1722 the heavensG3772.
NotG3756 thatG3754 we areG2070 sufficientG2425 ofG575 ourselvesG1438 to thinkG3049 any thingG5100 asG5613 ofG1537 ourselvesG1438; butG235 ourG2257 sufficiencyG2426 is ofG1537 GodG2316;
AsG5613 sorrowfulG3076, yetG1161 alwayG104 rejoicingG5463; asG5613 poorG4434, yetG1161 makingG4148 manyG4183 richG4148; asG5613 havingG2192 nothingG3367, andG2532 yet possessingG2722 all thingsG3956.
ForG3754 his lettersG1992+G3303, say theyG5346, are weightyG926 andG2532 powerfulG2478; butG1161 his bodilyG4983 presenceG3952 is weakG772, andG2532 his speechG3056 contemptibleG1848. {say they: Gr. saith he}
WhoG3739 alsoG2532 hath madeG2427 usG2248 ableG2427 ministersG1249 of the newG2537 testamentG1242; notG3756 of the letterG1121, butG235 of the spiritG4151: forG1063 the letterG1121 killethG615, butG1161 the spiritG4151 giveth lifeG2227. {giveth life: or, quickeneth}
AgainG3825, the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto treasureG2344 hidG2928 inG1722 a fieldG68; the whichG3739 when a manG444 hath foundG2147, he hidethG2928, andG2532 forG575 joyG5479 thereofG846 goethG5217 andG2532 sellethG4453 allG3956 thatG3745 he hathG2192, andG2532 buyethG59 thatG1565 fieldG68.
And when GideonH1439 was comeH935, behold, there was a manH376 that toldH5608 a dreamH2472 unto his fellowH7453, and saidH559, Behold, I dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and, lo, a cakeH6742+H6742 of barleyH8184 breadH3899 tumbledH2015 into the hostH4264 of MidianH4080, and cameH935 unto a tentH168, and smoteH5221 it that it fellH5307, and overturnedH2015+H4605 it, that the tentH168 lay alongH5307.
AndG2532 lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229 through the abundanceG5236 of the revelationsG602, there was givenG1325 to meG3427 a thornG4647 in the fleshG4561, the messengerG32 of SatanG4566 toG2443 buffetG2852 meG3165, lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229.
ForG5228 this thingG5127 I besoughtG3870 the LordG2962 thriceG5151, thatG2443 it might departG868 fromG575 meG1700.
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769. Most gladlyG2236 thereforeG3767 will IG2744 ratherG3123 gloryG2744 inG1722 myG3450 infirmitiesG769, thatG2443 the powerG1411 of ChristG5547 may restG1981 uponG1909 meG1691.
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.
And his fellowH7453 answeredH6030 and saidH559, This is nothing else save the swordH2719 of GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101, a manH376 of IsraelH3478: for into his handH3027 hath GodH430 deliveredH5414 MidianH4080, and all the hostH4264.
ForG1063+G2532 thoughG1487 he was crucifiedG4717 throughG1537 weaknessG769, yetG235 he livethG2198 byG1537 the powerG1411 of GodG2316. ForG1063 weG2249 alsoG2532 are weakG770 inG1722 himG846, butG235 we shall liveG2198 withG4862 himG846 byG1537 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 towardG1519 youG5209. {in him: or, with him}
Unto meG1698, who am less than the leastG1647 of allG3956 saintsG40, isG1325 thisG3778 graceG5485 givenG1325, that I should preachG2097 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 the unsearchableG421 richesG4149 of ChristG5547;
And he dividedH2673 the threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 into threeH7969 companiesH7218, and he putH5414 a trumpetH7782 in every man's handH3027, with emptyH7386 pitchersH3537, and lampsH3940 withinH8432 the pitchersH3537. {a trumpet…: Heb. trumpets in the hand of all of them} {lamps: or, firebrands, or, torches}
And he saidH559 unto them, LookH7200 on me, and doH6213 likewise: and, behold, when I comeH935 to the outsideH7097 of the campH4264, it shall be that, as I doH6213, so shall ye doH6213.
When I blowH8628 with a trumpetH7782, I and all that are with me, then blowH8628 ye the trumpetsH7782 also on every sideH5439 of all the campH4264, and sayH559, The sword of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439.
So GideonH1439, and the hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, cameH935 unto the outsideH7097 of the campH4264 in the beginningH7218 of the middleH8484 watchH821; and they had butH389 newlyH6965 setH6965 the watchH8104: and they blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH5310 the pitchersH3537 that were in their handsH3027.
And the threeH7969 companiesH7218 blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH7665 the pitchersH3537, and heldH2388 the lampsH3940 in their leftH8040 handsH3027, and the trumpetsH7782 in their rightH3225 handsH3027 to blowH8628 withal: and they criedH7121, The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439.
AndG2532 IG1473 wasG1096 withG4314 youG5209 inG1722 weaknessG769, andG2532 inG1722 fearG5401, andG2532 inG1722 muchG4183 tremblingG5156.
AndG2532 myG3450 speechG3056 andG2532 myG3450 preachingG2782 was notG3756 withG1722 enticingG3981 wordsG3056 of man'sG442 wisdomG4678, butG235 inG1722 demonstrationG585 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 of powerG1411: {enticing: or, persuasible}
ThatG2443 yourG5216 faithG4102 shouldG5600 notG3361 standG5600 inG1722 the wisdomG4678 of menG444, butG235 inG1722 the powerG1411 of GodG2316. {stand: Gr. be}
To whomG3739 GodG2316 wouldG2309 make knownG1107 whatG5101 is the richesG4149 of the gloryG1391 of thisG5127 mysteryG3466 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484; whichG3739 isG2076 ChristG5547 inG1722 youG5213, the hopeG1680 of gloryG1391: {in: or, among}
The preciousH3368 sonsH1121 of ZionH6726, comparableH5537 to fine goldH6337, how are they esteemedH2803 as earthenH2789 pitchersH5035, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the potterH3335!
AndG2532 whatG5101 is the exceedingG5235 greatnessG3174 of hisG846 powerG1411 toG1519 us-wardG2248 whoG3588 believeG4100, according toG2596 the workingG1753 of hisG846 mightyG2479 powerG2904, {his mighty power: Gr. the might of his power}
InG1722 whomG3739 areG1526 hidG614 allG3956 the treasuresG2344 of wisdomG4678 andG2532 knowledgeG1108. {In whom: or, Wherein}
AndG2532 base thingsG36 of the worldG2889, andG2532 things which are despisedG1848, hathG1586 GodG2316 chosenG1586, yea, andG2532 things whichG3588 areG5607 notG3361, toG2443 bring to noughtG2673 things that areG5607:
WhichG3739 he wroughtG1754 inG1722 ChristG5547, when he raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 setG2523 him atG1722 his ownG846 right handG1188 inG1722 the heavenlyG2032 places,
ForG1063 I thinkG1380 thatG3754 GodG2316 hath set forthG584 usG2248 the apostlesG652 lastG2078, asG5613 it were appointed to deathG1935: forG3754 we are madeG1096 a spectacleG2302 unto the worldG2889, andG2532 to angelsG32, andG2532 to menG444. {spectacle: Gr. theatre}
WeG2249 are foolsG3474 forG1223 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1223, butG1161 yeG5210 are wiseG5429 inG1722 ChristG5547; weG2249 are weakG772, butG1161 yeG5210 are strongG2478; yeG5210 are honourableG1741, butG1161 weG2249 are despisedG820.
EvenG891 unto this presentG737 hourG5610 weG3983 bothG2532 hungerG3983, andG2532 thirstG1372, andG2532 are nakedG1130, andG2532 are buffetedG2852, andG2532 have no certain dwellingplaceG790;
AndG2532 labourG2872, workingG2038 with our ownG2398 handsG5495: being reviledG3058, we blessG2127; being persecutedG1377, we suffer itG430:
Being defamedG987, we intreatG3870: we are madeG1096 asG5613 the filthG4027 of the worldG2889, and are the offscouringG4067 of all thingsG3956 untoG2193 this dayG737.
EvenG2532 when weG2248 wereG5607 deadG3498 in sinsG3900, hath quickened us together withG4806 ChristG5547, (by graceG5485 ye areG2075 savedG4982;) {by…: or, by whose grace}
Ye knowG1492 howG3754 throughG1223 infirmityG769 of the fleshG4561 I preached the gospelG2097 unto youG5213 at the firstG4386.
ForG1063 by graceG5485 are yeG2075 savedG4982 throughG1223 faithG4102; andG2532 thatG5124 notG3756 ofG1537 yourselvesG5216: it is the giftG1435 of GodG2316:
AndG2532 myG3450 temptationG3986 which was inG1722 myG3450 fleshG4561 ye despisedG1848 notG3756, norG3761 rejectedG1609; butG235 receivedG1209 meG3165 asG5613 an angelG32 of GodG2316, even asG5613 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
ButG1161 inG1722 a greatG3173 houseG3614 there areG2076 notG3756 onlyG3440 vesselsG4632 of goldG5552 andG2532 of silverG693, butG235 alsoG2532 of woodG3585 andG2532 of earthG3749; andG2532 someG3739+G3303 toG1519 honourG5092, andG1161 someG3739 toG1519 dishonourG819.
Buried withG4916 himG846 inG1722 baptismG908, whereinG1722+G3739 alsoG2532 ye are risen withG4891 him throughG1223 the faithG4102 of the operationG1753 of GodG2316, whoG3588 hath raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498.
ForG3754 ourG2257 gospelG2098 cameG1096 notG3756 untoG1519 youG5209 inG1722 wordG3056 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 powerG1411, andG2532 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 inG1722 muchG4183 assuranceG4136; asG2531 ye knowG1492 what manner of menG3634 we wereG1096 amongG1722 youG5213 forG1223 yourG5209 sake.
