ThouG4771 thereforeG3767, myG3450 sonG5043, be strongG1743 inG1722 the graceG5485 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
AndG2532 the thingsG3739 that thou hast heardG191 ofG3844 meG1700 amongG1223 manyG4183 witnessesG3144, the sameG5023 commit thouG3908 to faithfulG4103 menG444, whoG3748 shall beG2071 ableG2425 to teachG1321 othersG2087 alsoG2532. {among: or, by}
ThouG4771 thereforeG3767 endure hardnessG2553, asG5613 a goodG2570 soldierG4757 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
No manG3762 that warrethG4754 entangleth himselfG1707 with the affairsG4230 of this lifeG979; thatG2443 he may pleaseG700 him who hath chosen him to be a soldierG4758.
AndG1161 ifG1437 a manG5100 alsoG2532 striveG118 for masteries, yet is heG4737 notG3756 crownedG4737, exceptG3362 he striveG118 lawfullyG3545.
The husbandmanG1092 that labourethG2872 must beG1163 firstG4413 partakerG3335 of the fruitsG2590. {that…: or, labouring first, must be partaker of the fruits}
ConsiderG3539 whatG3739 I sayG3004; andG1063 the LordG2962 giveG1325 theeG4671 understandingG4907 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
RememberG3421 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ofG1537 the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 was raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 according toG2596 myG3450 gospelG2098:
WhereinG1722+G3739 I suffer troubleG2553, asG5613 an evil doerG2557, even untoG3360 bondsG1199; butG235 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 isG1210 notG3756 boundG1210.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 I endureG5278 all thingsG3956 forG1588 the elect'sG1588 sakesG1223, thatG2443 theyG846 mayG5177 alsoG2532 obtainG5177 the salvationG4991 whichG3588 is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 withG3326 eternalG166 gloryG1391.
It is a faithfulG4103 sayingG3056: ForG1063 ifG1487 we be dead withG4880 him, we shallG4800 alsoG2532 live withG4800 him:
IfG1487 we sufferG5278, we shallG4821 alsoG2532 reign withG4821 him: ifG1487 we denyG720 him, he alsoG2548 will denyG720 usG2248:
IfG1487 we believe notG569, yet heG1565 abidethG3306 faithfulG4103: he cannotG3756+G1410 denyG720 himselfG1438.
Of these thingsG5023 put them in remembranceG5279, chargingG1263 them beforeG1799 the LordG2962 that they striveG3054 notG3361 about wordsG3054 toG1519 noG3762 profitG5539, but toG1909 the subvertingG2692 of the hearersG191.
StudyG4704 to shewG3936 thyselfG4572 approvedG1384 unto GodG2316, a workmanG2040 that needeth not to be ashamedG422, rightly dividingG3718 the wordG3056 of truthG225.
ButG1161 shunG4026 profaneG952 and vain babblingsG2757: forG1063 they will increaseG4298 untoG1909 moreG4119 ungodlinessG763.
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}
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.
IfG1437 a manG5100 thereforeG3767 purgeG1571 himselfG1438 fromG575 theseG5130, he shall beG2071 a vesselG4632 untoG1519 honourG5092, sanctifiedG37, andG2532 meetG2173 for the master's useG1203, and preparedG2090 untoG1519 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041.
FleeG5343 alsoG1161 youthfulG3512 lustsG1939: butG1161 followG1377 righteousnessG1343, faithG4102, charityG26, peaceG1515, withG3326 them that call onG1941 the LordG2962 out ofG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588.
ButG1161 foolishG3474 andG2532 unlearnedG521 questionsG2214 avoidG3868, knowingG1492 thatG3754 they do genderG1080 strifesG3163.
AndG1161 the servantG1401 of the LordG2962 mustG1163 notG3756 striveG3164; butG235 beG1511 gentleG2261 untoG4314 allG3956 men, apt to teachG1317, patientG420, {patient: or, forbearing}
InG1722 meeknessG4236 instructingG3811 those that oppose themselvesG475; ifG3379 GodG2316 peradventureG3379 will giveG1325 themG846 repentanceG3341 toG1519 the acknowledgingG1922 of the truthG225;
AndG2532 that they may recover themselvesG366 out ofG1537 the snareG3803 of the devilG1228, who are taken captiveG2221 byG5259 himG846 atG1519 hisG1565 willG2307. {recover…: Gr. awake} {taken…: Gr. taken alive}

KnowH3045 therefore this dayH3117, and considerH7725 it in thine heartH3824, that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, and upon the earthH776 beneath: there is none else.
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, Can we findH4672 such a one as thisH2088 is, a manH376 in whomH834 the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 is?
O thatH3863 they were wiseH2449, that they understoodH7919 this, that they would considerH995 their latter endH319!
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, ForasmuchH310 as GodH430 hath shewedH3045 thee all this, there is none so discreetH995 and wiseH2450 as thou art:
And all menH120 shall fearH3372, and shall declareH5046 the workH6467 of GodH430; for they shall wisely considerH7919 of his doingH4639.
Then wroughtH6213 BezaleelH1212 and AholiabH171, and every wiseH2450 heartedH3820 manH376, in whomH1992 the LORDH3068 putH5414 wisdomH2451 and understandingH8394 to knowH3045 how to workH6213 all manner of workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the sanctuaryH6944, according to all that the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680.
Then I sawH2372, and considered it wellH7896+H3820: I lookedH7200 upon it, and receivedH3947 instructionH4148. {considered…: Heb. set my heart}
And MosesH4872 calledH7121 BezaleelH1212 and AholiabH171, and every wiseH2450 heartedH3820 manH376, in whose heartH3820 the LORDH3068 had putH5414 wisdomH2451, even every one whose heartH3820 stirred him upH5375 to comeH7126 unto the workH4399 to doH6213 it:
The oxH7794 knowethH3045 his ownerH7069, and the assH2543 his master'sH1167 cribH18: but IsraelH3478 doth not knowH3045, my peopleH5971 doth not considerH995.
Let the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, setH6485 a manH376 over the congregationH5712,
And the harpH3658, and the violH5035, the tabretH8596, and pipeH2485, and wineH3196, are in their feastsH4960: but they regardH5027 not the workH6467 of the LORDH3068, neither considerH7200 the operationH4639 of his handsH3027.
Which may go outH3318 beforeH6440 them, and which may go inH935 beforeH6440 them, and which may lead them outH3318, and which may bring them inH935; that the congregationH5712 of the LORDH3068 be not as sheepH6629 which have no shepherdH7462.
Let theseG5128 sayingsG3056 sink downG5087 intoG1519 yourG5210+G5216 earsG3775: forG1063 the SonG5207 of manG444 shall beG3195 deliveredG3860 intoG1519 the handsG5495 of menG444.
Only the LORDH3068 giveH5414 thee wisdomH7922 and understandingH998, and give thee chargeH6680 concerning IsraelH3478, that thou mayest keepH8104 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
FinallyG3063, brethrenG80, whatsoever thingsG3745 areG2076 trueG227, whatsoever thingsG3745 are honestG4586, whatsoever thingsG3745 are justG1342, whatsoever thingsG3745 are pureG53, whatsoever thingsG3745 are lovelyG4375, whatsoever thingsG3745 are of good reportG2163; if there be anyG1536 virtueG703, andG2532 if there be anyG1536 praiseG1868, thinkG3049 on these thingsG5023. {honest: or, venerable}
And giveH5414 unto SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2706, and to doH6213 all these things, and to buildH1129 the palaceH1002, for the which I have made provisionH3559.
Meditate uponG3191 these thingsG5023; give thyselfG2468 wholly toG1722 themG5125; thatG2443 thyG4675 profitingG4297 mayG5600 appearG5318 toG1722 allG3956. {to all: or, in all things}
And SolomonH8010 saidH559 unto GodH430, Thou hast shewedH6213 greatH1419 mercyH2617 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and hast made me to reignH4427 in his stead.
Now, O LORDH3068 GodH430, let thy promiseH1697 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1 be establishedH539: for thou hast made me kingH4427 over a peopleH5971 like the dustH6083 of the earthH776 in multitudeH7227. {like…: Heb. much as the dust of the earth}
GiveH5414 me now wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093, that I may go outH3318 and come inH935 beforeH6440 this peopleH5971: for who can judgeH8199 this thy peopleH5971, that is so greatH1419?
And GodH430 saidH559 to SolomonH8010, Because this was in thine heartH3824, and thou hast not askedH7592 richesH6239, wealthH5233, or honourH3519, nor the lifeH5315 of thine enemiesH8130, neither yet hast askedH7592 longH7227 lifeH3117; but hast askedH7592 wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093 for thyself, that thou mayest judgeH8199 my peopleH5971, over whom I have made thee kingH4427:
WisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093 is grantedH5414 unto thee; and I will giveH5414 thee richesH6239, and wealthH5233, and honourH3519, such as none of the kingsH4428 have had that have been beforeH6440 thee, neither shall there any afterH310 thee have the like.
WhereforeG3606, holyG40 brethrenG80, partakersG3353 of the heavenlyG2032 callingG2821, considerG2657 the ApostleG652 andG2532 High PriestG749 of ourG2257 professionG3671, ChristG5547 JesusG2424;
JOD. Thy handsH3027 have madeH6213 me and fashionedH3559 me: give me understandingH995, that I may learnH3925 thy commandmentsH4687.
NowG1161 considerG2334 how greatG4080 this manG3778 was, unto whomG3739 evenG2532 the patriarchG3966 AbrahamG11 gaveG1325 the tenthG1181 ofG1537 the spoilsG205.
ForG1063 considerG357 him that enduredG5278 suchG5108 contradictionG485 ofG5259 sinnersG268 againstG1519 himselfG846, lestG3363 ye be weariedG2577 and faintG1590 in yourG5216 mindsG5590.
The righteousnessH6664 of thy testimoniesH5715 is everlastingH5769: give me understandingH995, and I shall liveH2421.
RememberG3421 them which have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, whoG3748 have spokenG2980 unto youG5213 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: whoseG3739 faithG4102 followG3401, consideringG333 the endG1545 of their conversationG391. {have the rule: or, are the guides}
Cause me to hearH8085 thy lovingkindnessH2617 in the morningH1242; for in thee do I trustH982: cause me to knowH3045 the wayH1870 whereinH2098 I should walkH3212; for I lift upH5375 my soulH5315 unto thee.
DeliverH5337 me, O LORDH3068, from mine enemiesH341: I flee unto thee to hideH3680 me. {flee…: Heb. hide me with thee}
Yea, if thou criestH7121 after knowledgeH998, and liftest upH5414 thy voiceH6963 for understandingH8394; {liftest…: Heb. givest thy voice}
If thou seekestH1245 her as silverH3701, and searchestH2664 for her as for hid treasuresH4301;
Then shalt thou understandH995 the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068, and findH4672 the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430.
For the LORDH3068 givethH5414 wisdomH2451: out of his mouthH6310 cometh knowledgeH1847 and understandingH8394.
For his GodH430 doth instructH3256 him to discretionH4941, and doth teachH3384 him. {For…: or, And he bindeth it in such sort as his God doth teach him}
As for these fourH702 childrenH3206, GodH430 gaveH5414 them knowledgeH4093 and skillH7919 in all learningH5612 and wisdomH2451: and DanielH1840 had understandingH995 in all visionsH2377 and dreamsH2472. {Daniel…: or, he made Daniel understand}
ForG1063 IG1473 will giveG1325 youG5213 a mouthG4750 andG2532 wisdomG4678, whichG3739 allG3956 yourG5213 adversariesG480 shallG1410 notG3756 be ableG1410 to gainsayG471 norG3761 resistG436.
ThenG5119 opened heG1272 theirG846 understandingG3563, that they might understandG4920 the scripturesG1124,
ButG1161 the ComforterG3875, which is the HolyG40 GhostG4151, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 will sendG3992 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, heG1565 shall teachG1321 youG5209 all thingsG3956, andG2532 bringG5279 all thingsG3956 toG5279 yourG5209 remembranceG5279, whatsoeverG3739 I have saidG2036 unto youG5213.
HowbeitG1161 whenG3752 heG1565, the SpiritG4151 of truthG225, is comeG2064, he will guideG3594 youG5209 intoG1519 allG3956 truthG225: forG1063 he shallG2980 notG3756 speakG2980 ofG575 himselfG1438; butG235 whatsoeverG3745+G302 he shall hearG191, that shall he speakG2980: andG2532 he will shewG312 youG5213 things to comeG2064.
AndG2532 deliveredG1807 himG846 out ofG1537 allG3956 hisG846 afflictionsG2347, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 favourG5485 andG2532 wisdomG4678 in the sightG1726 of PharaohG5328 kingG935 of EgyptG125; andG2532 he madeG2525 himG846 governorG2233 overG1909 EgyptG125 andG2532 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624.
ForG1063 to oneG3739+G3303 is givenG1325 byG1223 the SpiritG4151 the wordG3056 of wisdomG4678+G1161; to anotherG243 the wordG3056 of knowledgeG1108 byG2596 the sameG846 SpiritG4151;
ThatG2443 the GodG2316 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the FatherG3962 of gloryG1391, may giveG1325 unto youG5213 the spiritG4151 of wisdomG4678 andG2532 revelationG602 inG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of himG846: {in…: or, for the acknowledgement}
The eyesG3788 of yourG5216 understandingG1271 being enlightenedG5461; thatG1519 yeG5209 may knowG1492 whatG5101 isG2076 the hopeG1680 of hisG846 callingG2821, andG2532 whatG5101 the richesG4149 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the saintsG40,
ForG1223 this causeG5124 weG2249 alsoG2532, sinceG575 theG3739 dayG2250 we heardG191 it, doG3973 notG3756 ceaseG3973 to prayG4336 forG5228 youG5216, andG2532 to desireG154 thatG2443 ye might be filledG4137 with the knowledgeG1922 of hisG846 willG2307 inG1722 allG3956 wisdomG4678 andG2532 spiritualG4152 understandingG4907;
If anyG1536 of youG5216 lackG3007 wisdomG4678, let him askG154 ofG3844 GodG2316, that givethG1325 to allG3956 men liberallyG574, andG2532 upbraidethG3679 notG3361; andG2532 it shall be givenG1325 himG846.
ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076+G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. {sensual: or, natural}
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
AndG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 is comeG2240, andG2532 hath givenG1325 usG2254 an understandingG1271, thatG2443 we may knowG1097 him that is trueG228, andG2532 we areG2070 inG1722 him that is trueG228, even inG1722 hisG846 SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. ThisG3778 isG2076 the trueG228 GodG2316, andG2532 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
