For thisG5127 causeG5484 IG1473 PaulG3972, the prisonerG1198 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 GentilesG1484,
IfG1489 ye have heardG191 of the dispensationG3622 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 whichG3588 is givenG1325 meG3427 toG1519 you-wardG5209:
How thatG3754 byG2596 revelationG602 he made knownG1107 unto meG3427 the mysteryG3466; (asG2531 I wrote aforeG4270 inG1722 few wordsG3641, {afore…: or, a little before}
WherebyG4314+G3739, when ye readG314, ye mayG1410 understandG3539 myG3450 knowledgeG4907 inG1722 the mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547)
WhichG3739 inG1722 otherG2087 agesG1074 wasG1107 notG3756 made knownG1107 unto the sonsG5207 of menG444, asG5613 it isG601 nowG3568 revealedG601 unto hisG846 holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396 byG1722 the SpiritG4151;
That the GentilesG1484 should beG1511 fellowheirsG4789, andG2532 of the same bodyG4954, andG2532 partakersG4830 of hisG846 promiseG1860 inG1722 ChristG5547 byG1223 the gospelG2098:
WhereofG3739 I was madeG1096 a ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 givenG1325 unto meG3427 byG2596 the effectual workingG1753 of hisG846 powerG1411.
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;
AndG2532 to makeG5461 allG3956 men seeG5461 whatG5101 is the fellowshipG2842 of the mysteryG3466, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165 hath been hidG613 inG1722 GodG2316, whoG3588 createdG2936 all thingsG3956 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107 byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
According toG2596 the eternalG165 purposeG4286 whichG3739 he purposedG4160 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192 boldnessG3954 andG2532 accessG4318 withG1722 confidenceG4006 byG1223 the faithG4102 of himG846.
WhereforeG1352 I desireG154 that ye faintG1573 notG3361 atG1722 myG3450 tribulationsG2347 forG5228 youG5216, whichG3748 isG2076 yourG5216 gloryG1391.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 I bowG2578 myG3450 kneesG1119 untoG4314 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
OfG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 familyG3965 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1909+G1093 is namedG3687,
ThatG2443 he would grantG1325 youG5213, according toG2596 the richesG4149 of hisG846 gloryG1391, to be strengthenedG2901 with mightG1411 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 inG1519 the innerG2080 manG444;
That ChristG5547 may dwellG2730 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588 byG1223 faithG4102; thatG2443 ye, being rootedG4492 andG2532 groundedG2311 inG1722 loveG26,
May be ableG1840 to comprehendG2638 withG4862 allG3956 saintsG40 whatG5101 is the breadthG4114, andG2532 lengthG3372, andG2532 depthG899, andG2532 heightG5311;
AndG5037 to knowG1097 the loveG26 of ChristG5547, which passethG5235 knowledgeG1108, thatG2443 ye might be filledG4137 withG1519 allG3956 the fulnessG4138 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410 to doG4160 exceedingG5228 abundantlyG1537+G4053 aboveG5228 allG3956 thatG3739 we askG154 orG2228 thinkG3539, according toG2596 the powerG1411 that workethG1754 inG1722 usG2254,
Unto himG846 be gloryG1391 inG1722 the churchG1577 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughoutG1519 allG3956 agesG1074, worldG165 without endG165. AmenG281.

May be ableG1840 to comprehendG2638 withG4862 allG3956 saintsG40 whatG5101 is the breadthG4114, andG2532 lengthG3372, andG2532 depthG899, andG2532 heightG5311;
Even asG2531 it isG2076 meetG1342 for meG1698 to thinkG5426 thisG5124 ofG5228 youG5216 allG3956, becauseG1223 I haveG2192 youG5209 inG1722 myG3165 heartG2588; inasmuch as bothG5037 inG1722 myG3450 bondsG1199, andG2532 in the defenceG627 andG2532 confirmationG951 of the gospelG2098, yeG5209 allG3956 areG5607 partakersG4791 of myG3450 graceG5485. {I have…: or, ye have me in your heart} {of my…: or, with me of grace}
WhichG3748 isG2076 hisG846 bodyG4983, the fulnessG4138 of him that fillethG4137 allG3956 inG1722 allG3956.
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.
As for me, I will beholdH2372 thy faceH6440 in righteousnessH6664: I shall be satisfiedH7646, when I awakeH6974, with thy likenessH8544.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
Then will I goH935 unto the altarH4196 of GodH430, unto GodH410 my exceedingH8057 joyH1524: yea, upon the harpH3658 will I praiseH3034 thee, O GodH430 my GodH430. {my exceeding…: Heb. the gladness of my joy}
AndG1161 thisG3778 isG2076 lifeG2222 eternalG166, thatG2443 they might knowG1097 theeG4571 the onlyG3441 trueG228 GodG2316, andG2532 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whomG3739 thou hast sentG649.
BlessedG3107 are they whichG3588 do hungerG3983 andG2532 thirstG1372 after righteousnessG1343: forG3754 theyG846 shall be filledG5526.
ForG1063 the loveG26 of ChristG5547 constrainethG4912 usG2248; because we thusG5124 judgeG2919, thatG3754 ifG1487 oneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thenG686 wereG599 allG3956 deadG599:
AndG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 fulnessG4138 haveG2983 allG3956 weG2249 receivedG2983, andG2532 graceG5485 forG473 graceG5485.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
LetG5426 thisG5124 mind beG5426 inG1722 youG5213, whichG3739 was alsoG2532 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhoG3739, beingG5225 inG1722 the formG3444 of GodG2316, thought itG2233 notG3756 robberyG725 to beG1511 equalG2470 with GodG2316:
ButG235 madeG2758 himselfG1438 of no reputationG2758, and took upon himG2983 the formG3444 of a servantG1401, and was madeG1096 inG1722 the likenessG3667 of menG444:
AndG2532 being foundG2147 in fashionG4976 asG5613 a manG444, he humbledG5013 himselfG1438, and becameG1096 obedientG5255 untoG3360 deathG2288, evenG1161 the deathG2288 of the crossG4716. {fashion: or habit}
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 hath highly exaltedG5251 himG846, andG2532 givenG5483 himG846 a nameG3686 whichG3588 is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686:
ThatG2443 atG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 everyG3956 kneeG1119 should bowG2578, of things in heavenG2032, andG2532 things in earthG1919, andG2532 things under the earthG2709;
AndG2532 that everyG3956 tongueG1100 should confessG1843 thatG3754 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is LordG2962, toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 belovedG27, asG2531 ye haveG5219 alwaysG3842 obeyedG5219, notG3361 asG5613 inG1722 myG3450 presenceG3952 onlyG3440, butG235 nowG3568 muchG4183 moreG3123 inG1722 myG3450 absenceG666, work outG2716 your ownG1438 salvationG4991 withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156.
AndG2532 ye areG2075 completeG4137 inG1722 himG846, whichG3739 isG2076 the headG2776 of allG3956 principalityG746 andG2532 powerG1849:
That yeG5209 might walkG4043 worthyG516 of the LordG2962 untoG1519 allG3956 pleasingG699, being fruitfulG2592 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041, andG2532 increasingG837 inG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of GodG2316;
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.
ButG1161 growG837 inG1722 graceG5485, andG2532 in the knowledgeG1108 of ourG2257 LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. To himG846 be gloryG1391 bothG2532 nowG3568 andG2532 forG1519 everG165+G2250. AmenG281.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 noG3756 templeG3485 thereinG1722+G846: forG1063 the LordG2962 GodG2316 AlmightyG3841 andG2532 the LambG721 areG2076 the templeG3485 of itG846.
AndG2532 the cityG4172 hadG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of the sunG2246, neitherG3761 of the moonG4582, toG2443 shineG5316 inG1722 itG846: forG1063 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 did lightenG5461 itG846, andG2532 the LambG721 is the lightG3088 thereofG846.
AndG2532 the nationsG1484 of them which are savedG4982 shall walkG4043 inG1722 the lightG5457 of itG846: andG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 do bringG5342 theirG846 gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 intoG1519 itG846.
InG1722 thisG5129 was manifestedG5319 the loveG26 of GodG2316 towardG1722 usG2254, becauseG3754 that GodG2316 sentG649 hisG846 only begottenG3439 SonG5207 intoG1519 the worldG2889, thatG2443 we might liveG2198 throughG1223 himG846.
HereinG1722+G5129 isG2076 loveG26, notG3754 thatG3756 weG2249 lovedG25 GodG2316, butG235 thatG3754 heG846 lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 sentG649 hisG846 SonG5207 to be the propitiationG2434 forG4012 ourG2257 sinsG266.
BelovedG27, ifG1487 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25 usG2248, weG2249 oughtG3784 alsoG2532 to loveG25 one anotherG240.
No manG3762 hath seenG2300 GodG2316 at any timeG4455. IfG1437 we loveG25 one anotherG240, GodG2316 dwellethG3306 inG1722 usG2254, andG2532 hisG846 loveG26 isG2076 perfectedG5048 inG1722 usG2254.
HerebyG1722+G5129 know weG1097 thatG3754 we dwellG3306 inG1722 himG846, andG2532 heG846 inG1722 usG2254, becauseG3754 he hath givenG1325 usG2254 ofG1537 hisG846 SpiritG4151.
AndG2532 weG2249 have seenG2300 andG2532 do testifyG3140 thatG3754 the FatherG3962 sentG649 the SonG5207 to be the SaviourG4990 of the worldG2889.
AndG2532 there shall beG2071 noG3756 moreG2089+G3956 curseG2652: butG2532 the throneG2362 of GodG2316 andG2532 of the LambG721 shall beG2071 inG1722 itG846; andG2532 hisG846 servantsG1401 shall serveG3000 himG846:
AndG2532 they shall seeG3700 hisG846 faceG4383; andG2532 hisG846 nameG3686 shall be inG1909 theirG846 foreheadsG3359.
AndG2532 there shall beG2071 noG3756 nightG3571 thereG1563; andG2532 they needG5532 noG3756 candleG3088+G2192, neitherG2532 lightG5457 of the sunG2246; forG3754 the LordG2962 GodG2316 givethG5461 themG846 lightG5461: andG2532 they shall reignG936 forG1519 everG165 and everG165.
