It isG4851 notG3756 expedientG4851 for meG3427 doubtlessG1211 to gloryG2744+G1063. I will comeG2064 toG1519 visionsG3701 andG2532 revelationsG602 of the LordG2962. {I will come: Gr. For I will come}
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.
AndG2532 I knewG1492 suchG5108 a manG444, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, orG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;)
How thatG3754 he was caught upG726 intoG1519 paradiseG3857, andG2532 heardG191 unspeakableG731 wordsG4487, whichG3739 it isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for a manG444 to utterG2980. {lawful: or, possible}
OfG5228 such an oneG5108 will I gloryG2744: yetG1161 ofG5228 myselfG1683 I willG2744 notG3756 gloryG2744, butG1508 inG1722 mineG3450 infirmitiesG769.
ForG1063 thoughG1437 I would desireG2309 to gloryG2744, I shallG2071 notG3756 beG2071 a foolG878; forG1063 I will sayG2046 the truthG225: butG1161 now I forbearG5339, lestG3361 any manG5100 should thinkG3049 ofG1519 meG1691 aboveG5228 that whichG3739 he seethG991 meG3165 to be, orG2228 that he hearethG191 ofG5100+G1537 meG1700.
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.
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
I am becomeG1096 a foolG878 in gloryingG2744; yeG5210 have compelledG315 meG3165: forG1063 IG1473 oughtG3784 to have been commendedG4921 ofG5259 youG5216: forG1063 in nothingG3762 am I behindG5302 the very chiefestG3029 apostlesG652+G5228, thoughG1499 I beG1510 nothingG3762.
TrulyG3303 the signsG4592 of an apostleG652 were wroughtG2716 amongG1722 youG5213 inG1722 allG3956 patienceG5281, inG1722 signsG4592, andG2532 wondersG5059, andG2532 mighty deedsG1411.
ForG1063 whatG5101 is itG2076 whereinG3739 ye were inferiorG2274 toG5228 otherG3062 churchesG1577, exceptG1508 it be thatG3754 IG1473 myselfG846 wasG2655 notG3756 burdensomeG2655 to youG5216? forgiveG5483 meG3427 thisG5026 wrongG93.
BeholdG2400, the third timeG5154 I amG2192 readyG2093 to comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209; andG2532 I willG2655 notG3756 be burdensomeG2655 to youG5216: forG1063 I seekG2212 notG3756 yoursG5216, butG235 youG5209: forG1063 the childrenG5043 oughtG3784 notG3756 to lay upG2343 for the parentsG1118, butG235 the parentsG1118 for the childrenG5043.
AndG1161 IG1473 will very gladlyG2236 spendG1159 andG2532 be spentG1550 forG5228 youG5590+G5216; thoughG1499 the more abundantlyG4056 I loveG25 youG5209, the lessG2276 I be lovedG25. {for you: Gr. for your souls}
ButG1161 be it soG2077, IG1473 didG2599 notG3756 burdenG2599 youG5209: neverthelessG235, beingG5225 craftyG3835, I caughtG2983 youG5209 with guileG1388.
Did I make a gainG4122+G3361 of youG5209 byG1223 anyG5100 of themG846 whomG3739 I sentG649 untoG4314 youG5209?
I desiredG3870 TitusG5103, andG2532 with him I sentG4882 a brotherG80. DidG4122+G3387 TitusG5103 make a gainG4122 of youG5209? walked weG4043 notG3756 in the sameG846 spiritG4151? walked we notG3756 in the sameG846 stepsG2487?
AgainG3825, think yeG1380 thatG3754 we excuse ourselvesG626 unto youG5213? we speakG2980 beforeG2714 GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547: butG1161 we do all thingsG3956, dearly belovedG27, forG5228 yourG5216 edifyingG3619.
ForG1063 I fearG5399, lestG3381+G4458, when I comeG2064, I shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 youG5209 such asG3634 I wouldG2309, and that IG2504 shall be foundG2147 unto youG5213 such asG3634 ye wouldG2309 notG3756: lestG3381+G4458 there be debatesG2054, envyingsG2205, wrathsG2372, strifesG2052, backbitingsG2636, whisperingsG5587, swellingsG5450, tumultsG181:
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 I besoughtH2603 the LORDH3068 at that timeH6256, sayingH559,
O LordH136 GODH3069, thou hast begunH2490 to shewH7200 thy servantH5650 thy greatnessH1433, and thy mightyH2389 handH3027: for what GodH410 is there in heavenH8064 or in earthH776, that can doH6213 according to thy worksH4639, and according to thy mightH1369?
I pray thee, let me go overH5674, and seeH7200 the goodH2896 landH776 that is beyondH5676 JordanH3383, that goodlyH2896 mountainH2022, and LebanonH3844.
But the LORDH3068 was wrothH5674 with me for your sakes, and would not hearH8085 me: and the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Let it sufficeH7227 thee; speakH1696 no moreH3254 unto me of this matterH1697.
Get thee upH5927 into the topH7218 of PisgahH6449, and lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 westwardH3220, and northwardH6828, and southwardH8486, and eastwardH4217, and beholdH7200 it with thine eyesH5869: for thou shalt not go overH5674 this JordanH3383. {Pisgah: or, the hill}
It repentethH5162 me that I have set upH4427 SaulH7586 to be kingH4428: for he is turned backH7725 from followingH310 me, and hath not performedH6965 my commandmentsH1697. And it grievedH2734 SamuelH8050; and he criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 all nightH3915.
DavidH1732 therefore besoughtH1245 GodH430 for the childH5288; and DavidH1732 fastedH6684+H6685, and went inH935, and layH7901 all nightH3885 upon the earthH776. {fasted: Heb. fasted a fast}
And the eldersH2205 of his houseH1004 aroseH6965, and went to him, to raise him upH6965 from the earthH776: but he wouldH14 not, neither did he eatH1262 breadH3899 with them.
And it came to pass on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that the childH3206 diedH4191. And the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 fearedH3372 to tellH5046 him that the childH3206 was deadH4191: for they saidH559, Behold, while the childH3206 was yet aliveH2416, we spakeH1696 unto him, and he would not hearkenH8085 unto our voiceH6963: how will he thenH6213 vexH7451 himselfH6213, if we tellH559 him that the childH3206 is deadH4191? {vex: Heb. do hurt}
In the dayH3117 of my troubleH6869 I soughtH1875 the LordH136: my soreH3027 ranH5064 in the nightH3915, and ceasedH6313 not: my soulH5315 refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162. {sore: Heb. hand}
I rememberedH2142 GodH430, and was troubledH1993: I complainedH7878, and my spiritH7307 was overwhelmedH5848. SelahH5542.
Thou holdestH270 mine eyesH5869 wakingH8109: I am so troubledH6470 that I cannot speakH1696.
I have consideredH2803 the daysH3117 of oldH6924, the yearsH8141 of ancient timesH5769.
I call to remembranceH2142 my songH5058 in the nightH3915: I communeH7878 with mine own heartH3824: and my spiritH7307 made diligent searchH2664.
Will the LordH136 cast offH2186 for everH5769? and willH3254 he be favourableH7521 no more?
Is his mercyH2617 clean goneH656 for everH5331? doth his promiseH562 failH1584 for evermoreH1755+H1755? {for evermore: Heb. to generation and generation?}
Hath GodH410 forgottenH7911 to be graciousH2589? hath he in angerH639 shut upH7092 his tender merciesH7356? SelahH5542.
And I saidH559, This is my infirmityH2470: but I will remember the yearsH8141 of the right handH3225 of the most HighH5945.
I will rememberH2142+H2142 the worksH4611 of the LORDH3050: surely I will rememberH2142 thy wondersH6382 of oldH6924.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto herG846, WhatG5101 wilt thouG2309? She saithG3004 unto himG846, GrantG2036 thatG2443 theseG3778 myG3450 twoG1417 sonsG5207 may sitG2523, the oneG1520 onG1537 thyG4675 right handG1188, andG2532 the otherG1520 onG1537 the leftG2176, inG1722 thyG4675 kingdomG932.
ButG1161 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036, Ye knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 ye askG154. Are ye ableG1410 to drinkG4095 of the cupG4221 thatG3739 IG1473 shallG3195 drink ofG4095, andG2532 to be baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 thatG3739 IG1473 am baptized withG907? They sayG3004 unto himG846, We are ableG1410.
AndG2532 he wentG4281 a littleG3397 furtherG4281, and fellG4098 onG1909 hisG846 faceG4383, andG2532 prayedG4336, sayingG3004, O myG3450 FatherG3962, ifG1487 it beG2076 possibleG1415, letG3928 thisG5124 cupG4221 passG3928 fromG575 meG1700: neverthelessG4133 notG3756 asG5613 IG1473 willG2309, butG235 asG5613 thouG4771 wilt.
AndG2532 he comethG2064 untoG4314 the disciplesG3101, andG2532 findethG2147 themG846 asleepG2518, andG2532 saithG3004 unto PeterG4074, WhatG3779, could yeG2480 notG3756 watchG1127 withG3326 meG1700 oneG3391 hourG5610?
WatchG1127 andG2532 prayG4336, thatG3363 ye enterG1525 notG3363 intoG1519 temptationG3986: the spiritG4151 indeedG3303 is willingG4289, butG1161 the fleshG4561 is weakG772.
He went awayG565 againG3825 theG1537 second timeG1208, and prayedG4336, sayingG3004, O myG3450 FatherG3962, ifG1487 thisG5124 cupG4221 mayG1410 notG3756 pass awayG3928 fromG575 meG1700, exceptG3362 I drinkG4095 itG846, thyG4675 willG2307 be doneG1096.
AndG2532 he cameG2064 and foundG2147 themG846 asleepG2518 againG3825: forG1063 theirG846 eyesG3788 wereG2258 heavyG916.
AndG2532 he leftG863 themG846, and went awayG565 againG3825, and prayedG4336+G1537 the third timeG5154, sayingG2036 the sameG846 wordsG3056.
WhoG3739 inG1722 the daysG2250 of hisG846 fleshG4561, when he had offered upG4374 prayersG1162 andG5037+G2532 supplicationsG2428 withG3326 strongG2478 cryingG2906 andG2532 tearsG1144 untoG4314 him that was ableG1410 to saveG4982 himG846 fromG1537 deathG2288, andG2532 was heardG1522 in thatG575 he fearedG2124; {in that…: or, for his piety}
