Would to GodG3785 ye could bearG430 with meG3450 a littleG3397 in my follyG877: andG2532 indeedG235 bearG430 with meG3450. {indeed bear…: or, indeed ye do bear with me}
ForG1063 I am jealousG2206 over youG5209 with godlyG2316 jealousyG2205: forG1063 I have espousedG718 youG5209 to oneG1520 husbandG435, that I may presentG3936 you as a chasteG53 virginG3933 to ChristG5547.
ButG1161 I fearG5399, lestG3381 by any meansG4458, asG5613 the serpentG3789 beguiledG1818 EveG2096 throughG1722 hisG846 subtiltyG3834, soG3779 yourG5216 mindsG3540 should be corruptedG5351 fromG575 the simplicityG572 that is inG1519 ChristG5547.
ForG1063 ifG1487+G3303 he that comethG2064 preachethG2784 anotherG243 JesusG2424, whomG3739 we haveG2784 notG3756 preachedG2784, orG2228 if ye receiveG2983 anotherG2087 spiritG4151, whichG3739 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983, orG2228 anotherG2087 gospelG2098, whichG3739 ye haveG1209 notG3756 acceptedG1209, ye mightG430 wellG2573 bear withG430 him. {with him: or, with me}
ForG1063 I supposeG3049 I wasG5302 not a whitG3367 behindG5302 the veryG5228 chiefestG3029 apostlesG652.
ButG1161 thoughG1499 I be rudeG2399 in speechG3056, yetG235 notG3756 in knowledgeG1108; butG235 we have been throughlyG1722+G3956 made manifestG5319 amongG1519 youG5209 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
Have I committedG4160 an offenceG266 in abasingG5013 myselfG1683 thatG2443 yeG5210 might be exaltedG5312, becauseG3754 I have preachedG2097 to youG5213 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316 freelyG1432?
I robbedG4813 otherG243 churchesG1577, takingG2983 wagesG3800 of them, toG4314 doG1248 youG5216 serviceG1248.
AndG2532 when I was presentG3918 withG4314 youG5209, andG2532 wantedG5302, I wasG3756 chargeableG2655 to no manG3762: forG1063 that which was lackingG5303 to meG3450 the brethrenG80 which cameG2064 fromG575 MacedoniaG3109 suppliedG4322: andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 things I have keptG5083 myselfG1683 from being burdensomeG4 unto youG5213, andG2532 so will I keepG5083 myself.
As the truthG225 of ChristG5547 isG2076 inG1722 meG1698+G3754, no manG3756 shall stopG4972+G5420 meG1519+G1691 of thisG3778 boastingG2746 inG1722 the regionsG2824 of AchaiaG882. {no man…: Gr. this boasting shall not be stopped in me}
WhereforeG1302? becauseG3754 I loveG25 youG5209 notG3756? GodG2316 knowethG1492.
ButG1161 whatG3739 I doG4160, thatG2532 I will doG4160, thatG2443 I may cut offG1581 occasionG874 from them which desireG2309 occasionG874; thatG2443 whereinG1722+G3739 they gloryG2744, they may be foundG2147 evenG2532 asG2531 weG2249.
ForG1063 suchG5108 are false apostlesG5570, deceitfulG1386 workersG2040, transforming themselvesG3345 intoG1519 the apostlesG652 of ChristG5547.
AndG2532 noG3756 marvelG2298; forG1063 SatanG4567 himselfG846 is transformedG3345 intoG1519 an angelG32 of lightG5457.
ThereforeG3767 it is noG3756 great thingG3173 ifG1499 hisG846 ministersG1249 alsoG1499 be transformedG3345 asG5613 the ministersG1249 of righteousnessG1343; whoseG3739 endG5056 shall beG2071 accordingG2596 to theirG846 worksG2041.
I sayG3004 againG3825, LetG1380 noG3361 manG5100 thinkG1380 meG1511+G3165 a foolG878; if otherwiseG1490, yetG2579 asG5613 a foolG878 receiveG1209 meG3165, thatG2443 IG2504 may boast myselfG2744 aG5100 littleG3397. {receive: or, suffer}
That whichG3739 I speakG2980, I speakG2980 it notG3756 afterG2596 the LordG2962, butG235 asG5613 it were foolishlyG1722+G877, inG1722 thisG5026 confidenceG5287 of boastingG2746.
Seeing thatG1893 manyG4183 gloryG2744 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, I will gloryG2744 alsoG2504.
ForG1063 ye sufferG430 foolsG878 gladlyG2234, seeing ye yourselves areG5607 wiseG5429.
ForG1063 ye sufferG430, if a manG1536 bringG2615 youG5209 into bondageG2615, if a manG1536 devourG2719 you, if a manG1536 takeG2983 of you, if a manG1536 exalt himselfG1869, if a manG1536 smiteG1194 youG5209 onG1519 the faceG4383.
I speakG3004 as concerningG2596 reproachG819, asG5613 thoughG3754 weG2249 had been weakG770. HowbeitG1161 whereinsoeverG1722+G3739+G302 anyG5100 is boldG5111, (I speakG3004 foolishlyG1722+G877,) I am boldG5111 alsoG2504.
Are theyG1526 HebrewsG1445? so am IG2504. Are theyG1526 IsraelitesG2475? so am IG2504. Are theyG1526 the seedG4690 of AbrahamG11? so am IG2504.
Are theyG1526 ministersG1249 of ChristG5547? (I speakG2980 as a foolG3912) IG1473 am moreG5228; inG1722 laboursG2873 more abundantG4056, inG1722 stripesG4127 above measureG5234, inG1722 prisonsG5438 more frequentG4056, inG1722 deathsG2288 oftG4178.
OfG5259 the JewsG2453 five timesG3999 received IG2983 fortyG5062 stripes saveG3844 oneG3391.
ThriceG5151 was I beaten with rodsG4463, onceG530 was I stonedG3034, thriceG5151 I suffered shipwreckG3489, a night and a dayG3574 I have beenG4160 inG1722 the deepG1037;
In journeyingsG3597 oftenG4178, in perilsG2794 of watersG4215, in perilsG2794 of robbersG3027, in perilsG2794 byG1537 mine own countrymenG1085, in perilsG2794 byG1537 the heathenG1484, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the cityG4172, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the wildernessG2047, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the seaG2281, in perilsG2794 amongG1722 false brethrenG5569;
InG1722 wearinessG2873 andG2532 painfulnessG3449, inG1722 watchingsG70 oftenG4178, inG1722 hungerG3042 andG2532 thirstG1373, inG1722 fastingsG3521 oftenG4178, inG1722 coldG5592 andG2532 nakednessG1132.
BesideG5565 those things that are withoutG3924, that whichG3588 cometh uponG1999 meG3450 dailyG2250+G2596, the careG3308 of allG3956 the churchesG1577.
WhoG5101 is weakG770, andG2532 I amG770 notG3756 weakG770? whoG5101 is offendedG4624, andG2532 IG1473 burnG4448 notG3756?
IfG1487 I must needsG1163 gloryG2744, I will gloryG2744 of the things which concernG3588 mineG3450 infirmitiesG769.
The GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whichG3588 isG5607 blessedG2128 forG1519 evermoreG165, knowethG1492 that IG3754 lieG5574 notG3756.
InG1722 DamascusG1154 the governorG1481 under AretasG702 the kingG935 keptG5432 the cityG4172 of the DamascenesG1153 with a garrisonG5432, desirousG2309 to apprehendG4084 meG3165:
AndG2532 throughG1223 a windowG2376 inG1722 a basketG4553 was I let downG5465 byG1223 the wallG5038, andG2532 escapedG1628 hisG846 handsG5495.

ThereforeG3767 it is noG3756 great thingG3173 ifG1499 hisG846 ministersG1249 alsoG1499 be transformedG3345 asG5613 the ministersG1249 of righteousnessG1343; whoseG3739 endG5056 shall beG2071 accordingG2596 to theirG846 worksG2041.
ForG1063 we areG2070 notG3756 asG5613 manyG4183, which corruptG2585 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 sincerityG1505, butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 GodG2316, in the sightG2714 of GodG2316 speak weG2980 inG1722 ChristG5547. {corrupt: or, deal deceitfully with} {in Christ: or, of Christ}
ForG1063 there areG1526 manyG4183 unrulyG506 andG2532 vain talkersG3151 andG2532 deceiversG5423, speciallyG3122 they ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061:
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}
WhoseG3739 mouthsG1993 mustG1163 be stoppedG1993, whoG3748 subvertG396 wholeG3650 housesG3624, teachingG1321 things whichG3739 they oughtG1163 notG3361, forG5484 filthyG150 lucre'sG2771 sakeG5484.
ThenG1161+G2532 he which had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 talentG5007 cameG4334 and saidG2036, LordG2962, I knewG1097 theeG4571 thatG3754 thou artG1488 an hardG4642 manG444, reapingG2325 whereG3699 thou hastG4687 notG3756 sownG4687, andG2532 gatheringG4863 whereG3606 thou hastG1287 notG3756 strawedG1287:
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.
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:
AlsoG2532 ofG1537 yourG5216 own selvesG846 shallG450 menG435 ariseG450, speakingG2980 perverse thingsG1294, to draw awayG645 disciplesG3101 afterG3694 themG846.
ForG1063 they that are suchG5108 serveG1398 notG3756 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 their ownG1438 bellyG2836; andG2532 byG1223 good wordsG5542 andG2532 fair speechesG2129 deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the simpleG172.
WhichG3739 isG2076 notG3756 anotherG243; but there beG1526 someG5100 thatG1508 troubleG5015 youG5209, andG2532 wouldG2309 pervertG3344 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in privilyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:
They zealously affectG2206 youG5209, but notG3756 wellG2573; yeaG235, they wouldG2309 excludeG1576 youG5209, thatG2443 ye might affectG2206 themG846. {exclude you: or, exclude us}
As many asG3745 desireG2309 to make a fair shewG2146 inG1722 the fleshG4561, theyG3778 constrainG315 youG5209 to be circumcisedG4059; onlyG3440 lestG3363 they should suffer persecutionG1377 for the crossG4716 of ChristG5547.
ThatG2443 we henceforth beG5600 no moreG3371 childrenG3516, tossed to and froG2831, andG2532 carried about withG4064 everyG3956 windG417 of doctrineG1319, byG1722 the sleightG2940 of menG444, and cunning craftinessG1722+G3834, wherebyG4314 they lie in waitG3180 to deceiveG4106;
SomeG5100 indeedG3303 preachG2784 ChristG5547 evenG2532 ofG1223 envyG5355 andG2532 strifeG2054; andG1161 someG5100 alsoG2532 ofG1223 good willG2107:
The oneG3303 preachG2605 ChristG5547 ofG1537 contentionG2052, notG3756 sincerelyG55, supposingG3633 to addG2018 afflictionG2347 to myG3450 bondsG1199:
AndG1161 thisG5124 I sayG3004, lestG3363 any manG5100 should beguileG3884 youG5209 withG1722 enticing wordsG4086.
BewareG991 lestG3361 any manG5100 spoilG2071+G4812 youG5209 throughG1223 philosophyG5385 andG2532 vainG2756 deceitG539, afterG2596 the traditionG3862 of menG444, afterG2596 the rudimentsG4747 of the worldG2889, andG2532 notG3756 afterG2596 ChristG5547. {rudiments: or, elements} {make a prey: or, seduce you, or, lead you astray}
NeitherG3366 give heedG4337 to fablesG3454 andG2532 endlessG562 genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 ministerG3930 questionsG2214, ratherG3123 thanG2228 godlyG2316 edifyingG3620 whichG3588 is inG1722 faithG4102: so do.
NowG1161 the endG5056 of the commandmentG3852 isG2076 charityG26 out ofG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588, andG2532 of a goodG18 conscienceG4893, andG2532 of faithG4102 unfeignedG505:
From whichG3739 someG5100 having swervedG795 have turned asideG1624 untoG1519 vain janglingG3150; {having…: or, not aiming at}
DesiringG2309 to beG1511 teachers of the lawG3547+G3361; understandingG3539 neitherG3383 whatG3739 they sayG3004, norG3383 whereofG4012+G5101 they affirmG1226.
NowG1161 the SpiritG4151 speakethG3004 expresslyG4490, thatG3754 inG1722 the latterG5306 timesG2540 someG5100 shall depart fromG868 the faithG4102, giving heedG4337 to seducingG4108 spiritsG4151, andG2532 doctrinesG1319 of devilsG1140;
Speaking liesG5573 inG1722 hypocrisyG5272; havingG2743 theirG2398 conscienceG4893 seared with a hot ironG2743;
ForbiddingG2967 to marryG1060, and commanding to abstain fromG567 meatsG1033, whichG3739 GodG2316 hath createdG2936 toG1519 be receivedG3336 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 of them which believeG4103 andG2532 knowG1921 the truthG225.
If any manG1536 teach otherwiseG2085, andG2532 consentG4334 notG3361 to wholesomeG5198 wordsG3056, even the words of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 to the doctrineG1319 which is accordingG2596 to godlinessG2150;
He is proudG5187, knowingG1987 nothingG3367, butG235 dotingG3552 aboutG4012 questionsG2214 andG2532 strifes of wordsG3055, whereofG1537+G3739 comethG1096 envyG5355, strifeG2054, railingsG988, evilG4190 surmisingsG5283, {proud: or, a fool} {doting: or, sick}
Perverse disputingsG3859 of menG444 of corruptG1311 mindsG3563, andG2532 destituteG650 of the truthG225, supposingG3543 that gainG4200 isG1511 godlinessG2150: fromG575 suchG5108 withdraw thyselfG868. {Perverse…: or, Gallings one of another}
AndG2532 theirG846 wordG3056 will eatG2192+G3542 asG5613 doth a cankerG1044: of whomG3739 isG2076 HymenaeusG5211 andG2532 PhiletusG5372; {canker: or, gangrene}
WhoG3748 concerningG4012 the truthG225 have erredG795, sayingG3004 that the resurrectionG386 is pastG1096 alreadyG2235; andG2532 overthrowG396 the faithG4102 of someG5100.
NeverthelessG3305 the foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standethG2476 sureG4731, havingG2192 thisG5026 sealG4973, The LordG2962 knowethG1097 them that areG5607 hisG846. AndG2532, LetG868 every oneG3956 that namethG3687 the nameG3686 of ChristG5547 departG868 fromG575 iniquityG93. {sure: or, steady}
HavingG2192 a formG3446 of godlinessG2150, butG1161 denyingG720 the powerG1411 thereofG846: fromG2532 suchG5128 turn awayG665.
ForG1063 ofG1537 this sortG5130 are theyG1526 which creepG1744 intoG1519 housesG3614, andG2532 lead captiveG162 silly womenG1133 ladenG4987 with sinsG266, led awayG71 with diversG4164 lustsG1939,
EverG3842 learningG3129, andG2532 neverG3368 ableG1410 to comeG2064 toG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of the truthG225.
NowG1161 asG5158 JannesG2389 andG2532 JambresG2387 withstoodG436 MosesG3475, soG3779 doG436 theseG3778 alsoG2532 resistG436 the truthG225: menG444 of corruptG2704 mindsG3563, reprobateG96 concerningG4012 the faithG4102. {reprobate: or, of no judgment} {reprobate: or, of no judgment}
ButG235 they shall proceedG4298 noG3756 furtherG1909+G4119: forG1063 theirG846 follyG454 shall beG2071 manifestG1552 unto allG3956 men, asG5613 theirsG1565 alsoG2532 wasG1096.
ForG1063 the timeG2540 will comeG2071 whenG3753 they willG430 notG3756 endureG430 soundG5198 doctrineG1319; butG235 afterG2596 their ownG2398 lustsG1939 shall they heapG2002 to themselvesG1438 teachersG1320, having itchingG2833 earsG189;
AndG2532 they shall turn awayG3303+G654 their earsG189 fromG575 the truthG225, andG1161 shall be turnedG1624 untoG1909 fablesG3454.
ButG1161 there wereG1096 false prophetsG5578 alsoG2532 amongG1722 the peopleG2992, evenG2532 asG5613 there shall beG2071 false teachersG5572 amongG1722 youG5213, whoG3748 privily shall bring inG3919 damnableG684 heresiesG139, evenG2532 denyingG720 the LordG1203 that boughtG59 themG846, and bringG1863 upon themselvesG1438 swiftG5031 destructionG684.
AndG2532 manyG4183 shall followG1811 theirG846 pernicious waysG684; by reason ofG1223 whomG3739 the wayG3598 of truthG225 shall be evil spoken ofG987. {pernicious ways: or, lascivious ways, as some copies read}
AndG2532 throughG1722 covetousnessG4124 shall they with feignedG4112 wordsG3056 make merchandiseG1710 of youG5209: whoseG3739 judgmentG2917 now of a long timeG1597 lingerethG691 notG3756, andG2532 theirG846 damnationG684 slumberethG3573 notG3756.
Little childrenG3813, it isG2076 the lastG2078 timeG5610: andG2532 asG2531 ye have heardG191 thatG3754 antichristG500 shall comeG2064, evenG2532 nowG3568 are thereG1096 manyG4183 antichristsG500; wherebyG3606 we knowG1097 thatG3754 it isG2076 the lastG2078 timeG5610.
BelovedG27, believeG4100 notG3361 everyG3956 spiritG4151, butG235 tryG1381 the spiritsG4151 whetherG1487 they areG2076 ofG1537 GodG2316: becauseG3754 manyG4183 false prophetsG5578 are gone outG1831 intoG1519 the worldG2889.
ForG3754 manyG4183 deceiversG4108 are enteredG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, whoG3588 confessG3670 notG3361 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is comeG2064 inG1722 the fleshG4561. ThisG3778 isG2076 a deceiverG4108 andG2532 an antichristG500.
LookG991 to yourselvesG1438, thatG3363 we loseG622 notG3363 those things whichG3739 we have wroughtG2038, butG235 that we receiveG618 a fullG4134 rewardG3408. {wrought: or, gained, some copies read, ye have gained, but that ye, etc.}
WhosoeverG3956 transgressethG3845, andG2532 abidethG3306 notG3361 inG1722 the doctrineG1322 of ChristG5547, hathG2192 notG3756 GodG2316. He that abidethG3306 inG1722 the doctrineG1322 of ChristG5547, heG3778 hathG2192 bothG2532 the FatherG3962 andG2532 the SonG5207.
IfG1536 there comeG2064 anyG1536+G5100 untoG4314 youG5209, andG2532 bringG5342 notG3756 thisG5026 doctrineG1322, receiveG2983 himG846 notG3361 intoG1519 your houseG3614, neitherG2532+G3361 bidG3004 himG846 God speedG5463:
ForG1063 he that biddethG3004 himG846 God speedG5463 is partakerG2841 of hisG846 evilG4190 deedsG2041.
ForG1063 there are certainG5100 menG444 crept in unawaresG3921, whoG3588 were beforeG4270 of oldG3819 ordainedG4270 toG1519 thisG5124 condemnationG2917, ungodly menG765, turningG3346 the graceG5485 of ourG2257 GodG2316 intoG1519 lasciviousnessG766, andG2532 denyingG720 the onlyG3441 LordG1203 GodG2316, andG2532 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 thyG4675 labourG2873, andG2532 thyG4675 patienceG5281, andG2532 howG3754 thou canstG1410 notG3756 bearG941 them which are evilG2556: andG2532 thou hast triedG3985 them which sayG5335 they areG1511 apostlesG652, andG2532 areG1526 notG3756, andG2532 hast foundG2147 themG846 liarsG5571:
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 tribulationG2347, andG2532 povertyG4432, (butG1161 thou artG1488 richG4145) andG2532 I know the blasphemyG988 of them whichG3588 sayG3004 theyG1438 areG1511 JewsG2453, andG2532 areG1526 notG3756, butG235 are the synagogueG4864 of SatanG4567.
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 beastG2342 was takenG4084, andG2532 withG3326 himG5127 the false prophetG5578 that wroughtG4160 miraclesG4592 beforeG1799 himG846, withG1722 whichG3739 he deceivedG4105 them that had receivedG2983 the markG5480 of the beastG2342, andG2532 them that worshippedG4352 hisG846 imageG1504. These bothG1417 were castG906 aliveG2198 intoG1519 a lakeG3041 of fireG4442 burningG2545 withG1722 brimstoneG2303.
