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.
ForG2532+G1063 inG1722 thisG5129 we groanG4727, earnestly desiringG1971 to be clothed uponG1902 with ourG2257 houseG3613 whichG3588 is fromG1537 heavenG3772:
IfG1489 soG2532 be that being clothedG1746 we shallG2147 notG3756 be foundG2147 nakedG1131.
ForG2532+G1063 we that areG5607 inG1722 this tabernacleG4636 do groanG4727, being burdenedG916: notG3756 for thatG1894 we wouldG2309 be unclothedG1562, butG235 clothed uponG1902, thatG2443 mortalityG2349 might be swallowed upG2666 ofG5259 lifeG2222.
NowG1161 he that hath wroughtG2716 usG2248 forG1519 the selfsame thingG846+G5124 is GodG2316, whoG3588 alsoG2532 hath givenG1325 unto usG2254 the earnestG728 of the SpiritG4151.
ThereforeG3767+G2532 we are alwaysG3842 confidentG2292, knowingG1492 thatG3754, whilst we are at homeG1736 inG1722 the bodyG4983, we are absentG1553 fromG575 the LordG2962:
(ForG1063 we walkG4043 byG1223 faithG4102, notG3756 byG1223 sightG1491:)
We are confidentG2292, I say, andG1161+G2532 willingG2106 ratherG3123 to be absentG1553 fromG1537 the bodyG4983, andG2532 to be presentG1736 withG4314 the LordG2962.
WhereforeG1352 we labourG5389, thatG2532, whetherG1535 presentG1736 orG1535 absentG1553, we may beG1511 acceptedG2101 of himG846. {labour: or, endeavour}
ForG1063 weG2248 mustG1163 allG3956 appearG5319 beforeG1715 the judgment seatG968 of ChristG5547; thatG2443 every oneG1538 may receiveG2865 the things done inG1223 his bodyG4983, accordingG4314 to thatG3739 he hath doneG4238, whetherG1535 it be goodG18 orG1535 badG2556.
KnowingG1492 thereforeG3767 the terrorG5401 of the LordG2962, we persuadeG3982 menG444; butG1161 we are made manifestG5319 unto GodG2316; andG1161 I trustG1679 alsoG2532 are made manifestG5319 inG1722 yourG5216 consciencesG4893.
ForG1063 we commendG4921 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 againG3825 unto youG5213, butG235 giveG1325 youG5213 occasionG874 to gloryG2745 onG5228 ourG2257 behalfG5228, thatG2443 ye may haveG2192 somewhat toG4314 answer them which gloryG2744 inG1722 appearanceG4383, andG2532 notG3756 in heartG2588. {in appearance: Gr. in the face}
ForG1063 whetherG1535 we be beside ourselvesG1839, it is to GodG2316: or whetherG1535 we be soberG4993, it is for your causeG5213.
ForG1063 the loveG26 of ChristG5547 constrainethG4912 usG2248; because we thusG5124 judgeG2919, thatG3754 ifG1487 oneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thenG686 wereG599 allG3956 deadG599:
AndG2532 that he diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thatG2443 they which liveG2198 shouldG2198 not henceforthG3371 liveG2198 unto themselvesG1438, butG235 unto him which diedG599 forG5228 themG846, andG2532 rose againG1453.
WhereforeG5620 henceforthG575+G3568 knowG1492 weG2249 no manG3762 afterG2596 the fleshG4561: yeaG1161, thoughG1499 we have knownG1097 ChristG5547 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, yetG235 nowG3568 henceforthG3765 know weG1097 him no moreG3765.
ThereforeG5620 if any manG1536 be inG1722 ChristG5547, he is a newG2537 creatureG2937: old thingsG744 are passed awayG3928; beholdG2400, all thingsG3956 are becomeG1096 newG2537. {he is: or, let him be}
AndG1161 all thingsG3956 are ofG1537 GodG2316, whoG3588 hath reconciledG2644 usG2248 to himselfG1438 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 hath givenG1325 to usG2254 the ministryG1248 of reconciliationG2643;
To witG5613, thatG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 inG1722 ChristG5547, reconcilingG2644 the worldG2889 unto himselfG1438, notG3361 imputingG3049 theirG846 trespassesG3900 unto themG846; andG2532 hath committedG5087 untoG1722 usG2254 the wordG3056 of reconciliationG2643. {committed…: Gr. put in us}
Now thenG3767 we are ambassadorsG4243 forG5228 ChristG5547, as thoughG5613 GodG2316 did beseechG3870 you byG1223 usG2257: we prayG1189 you inG5228 Christ'sG5547 steadG5228, be ye reconciledG2644 to GodG2316.
ForG1063 he hath madeG4160 him to be sinG266 forG5228 usG2257, whoG3588 knewG1097 noG3361 sinG266; thatG2443 weG2249 might be madeG1096 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 inG1722 himG846.

ThereforeG3767+G2532 we are alwaysG3842 confidentG2292, knowingG1492 thatG3754, whilst we are at homeG1736 inG1722 the bodyG4983, we are absentG1553 fromG575 the LordG2962:
WhereforeG1352 we labourG5389, thatG2532, whetherG1535 presentG1736 orG1535 absentG1553, we may beG1511 acceptedG2101 of himG846. {labour: or, endeavour}
I knewG1492 a manG444 inG1722 ChristG5547 aboveG4253 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 agoG4253, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492; or whetherG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;) such an oneG5108 caught upG726 toG2193 the thirdG5154 heavenG3772.
Thou wilt shewH3045 me the pathH734 of lifeH2416: in thy presenceH6440 is fulnessH7648 of joyH8057; at thy right handH3225 there are pleasuresH5273 for evermoreH5331.
AndG2532 I knewG1492 suchG5108 a manG444, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, orG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;)
As for me, I will beholdH2372 thy faceH6440 in righteousnessH6664: I shall be satisfiedH7646, when I awakeH6974, with thy likenessH8544.
LordG1203, nowG3568 lettest thouG630 thyG4675 servantG1401 departG630 inG1722 peaceG1515, accordingG2596 to thyG4675 wordG4487:
Nevertheless I am continuallyH8548 with thee: thou hast holdenH270 me by my rightH3225 handH3027.
Thou shalt guideH5148 me with thy counselH6098, and afterwardH310 receiveH3947 me to gloryH3519.
Whom have I in heavenH8064 but thee? and there is none upon earthH776 that I desireH2654 beside thee.
My fleshH7607 and my heartH3824 failethH3615: but GodH430 is the strengthH6697 of my heartH3824, and my portionH2506 for everH5769. {strength: Heb. rock}
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 answeredG611, WhatG5101 mean yeG4160 to weepG2799 andG2532 to breakG4919 mineG3450 heartG2588? forG1063 IG1473 amG2192 readyG2093 notG3756 to be boundG1210 onlyG3440, butG2532 alsoG235 to dieG599 atG1519 JerusalemG2419 forG5228 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, thou goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401: thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
AccordingG2596 to myG3450 earnest expectationG603 andG2532 my hopeG1680, thatG3754 inG1722 nothingG3762 I shall be ashamedG153, butG235 that withG1722 allG3956 boldnessG3954, asG5613 alwaysG3842, so nowG3568 alsoG2532 ChristG5547 shall be magnifiedG3170 inG1722 myG3450 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 it be byG1223 lifeG2222, orG1535 byG1223 deathG2288.
ForG1063 to meG1698 to liveG2198 is ChristG5547, andG2532 to dieG599 is gainG2771.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561, thisG5124 is the fruitG2590 of my labourG2041+G3427: yetG2532 whatG5101 I shall chooseG138 I wotG1107 notG3756.
ForG1063 I am in a straitG4912 betwixtG1537 twoG1417, havingG2192 a desireG1939 toG1519 departG360, andG2532 to beG1511 withG4862 ChristG5547; which is farG4183+G3123 betterG2908:
NeverthelessG1161 to abideG1961 inG1722 the fleshG4561 is more needfulG316 forG1223 youG5209.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401; thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
I have foughtG75 a goodG2570 fightG73, I have finishedG5055 my courseG1408, I have keptG5083 the faithG4102:
AndG2532 ifG1437 I goG4198 andG2532 prepareG2090 a placeG5117 for youG5213, I will comeG2064 againG3825, andG2532 receiveG3880 youG5209 untoG4314 myselfG1683; thatG2443 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510, there yeG5210 may beG5600 alsoG2532.
HenceforthG3063 there is laid upG606 for meG3427 a crownG4735 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3739 the LordG2962, the righteousG1342 judgeG2923, shall giveG591 meG3427 atG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250: andG1161 notG3756 to meG1698 onlyG3440, butG235 unto all themG3956 alsoG2532 that loveG25 hisG846 appearingG2015.
FatherG3962, I willG2309 thatG2443 they alsoG2548, whomG3739 thou hast givenG1325 meG3427, beG5600 withG3326 meG1700 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510; thatG2443 they may beholdG2334 myG1699 gloryG1391, whichG3739 thou hast givenG1325 meG3427: forG3754 thou lovedstG25 meG3165 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 shortlyG5031 I mustG2076 put offG595 this myG3450 tabernacleG4638, evenG2532 asG2531 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 hath shewedG1213 meG3427.
ThenG1899 weG2249 whichG3588 are aliveG2198 and remainG4035 shall be caught upG726 togetherG260 withG4862 themG846 inG1722 the cloudsG3507, toG1519 meetG529 the LordG2962 inG1519 the airG109: andG2532 soG3779 shall weG2071 everG3842 beG2071 withG4862 the LordG2962.
MoreoverG1161+G2532 I will endeavourG4704 that yeG5209 may be ableG2192 afterG3326 myG1699 deceaseG1841 to haveG4160 these thingsG5130 alwaysG1539 in remembranceG3420.
Seeing thenG3767 that allG3956 these thingsG5130 shall be dissolvedG3089, what mannerG4217 of persons oughtG1163 yeG5209 to beG5225 inG1722 all holyG40 conversationG391 andG2532 godlinessG2150,
BelovedG27, nowG3568 are weG2070 the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, andG2532 it dothG5319 not yetG3768 appearG5319 whatG5101 we shall beG2071: butG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754, whenG1437 he shall appearG5319, we shall beG2071 likeG3664 himG846; forG3754 we shall seeG3700 himG846 asG2531 he isG2076.
Looking forG4328 andG2532 hastingG4692 unto the comingG3952 of the dayG2250 of GodG2316, whereinG1223+G3739 the heavensG3772 being on fireG4448 shall be dissolvedG3089, andG2532 the elementsG4747 shall meltG5080 with fervent heatG2741? {hasting…: or, hasting the coming}
AndG2532 I saidG2046 unto himG846, SirG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492. AndG2532 he saidG2036 to meG3427, TheseG3778 are theyG1526 which cameG2064 out ofG1537 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, andG2532 have washedG4150 theirG846 robesG4749, andG2532 madeG3021 themG4749+G846 whiteG3021 inG1722 the bloodG129 of the LambG721.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 are theyG1526 beforeG1799 the throneG2362 of GodG2316, andG2532 serveG3000 himG846 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 inG1722 hisG846 templeG3485: andG2532 he that sittethG2521 onG1909 the throneG2362 shall dwellG4637 amongG1909 themG846.
They shall hungerG3983 noG3756 moreG2089, neitherG3761 thirstG1372 any moreG2089; neitherG3761+G3361 shallG4098 the sunG2246 lightG4098 onG1909 themG846, norG3761 anyG3956 heatG2738.
ForG3754 the LambG721 whichG3588 is in the midstG303+G3319 of the throneG2362 shall feedG4165 themG846, andG2532 shall leadG3594 themG846 untoG1909 livingG2198 fountainsG4077 of watersG5204: andG2532 GodG2316 shall wipe awayG1813 allG3956 tearsG1144 fromG575 theirG846 eyesG3788.
