MyG3450 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 mastersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3187 condemnationG2917. {condemnation: or, judgment}
ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we offendG4417 allG537. If any manG1536 offendG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, and ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400, we putG906 bitsG5469 inG1519 the horses'G2462 mouthsG4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG2254; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400 alsoG2532 the shipsG4143, which though they beG5607 so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 ofG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet are they turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whithersoeverG3699+G302 the governorG2116 listethG3730+G1014.
EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381! {a matter: or, wood}
AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG1067. {course: Gr. wheel}
ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037+G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of things in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 of mankindG5449+G442: {kind: Gr. nature} {mankind: Gr. nature of man}
ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.
TherewithG1722+G846 bless weG2127 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 therewithG1722+G846 curse weG2672 menG444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316.
Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG3450 brethrenG80, these thingsG5023 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096.
DothG3385 a fountainG4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089? {place: or, hole}
CanG3361+G1410 the fig treeG4808, myG3450 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? eitherG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 can noG3762 fountainG4077 both yieldG4160 saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099.
WhoG5101 is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG5213? let him shewG1166 out ofG1537 a goodG2570 conversationG391 hisG846 worksG2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lie notG5574 againstG2596 the truthG225.
ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076+G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. {sensual: or, natural}
ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229. {confusion: Gr. tumult or unquietness}
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 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 of them that makeG4160 peaceG1515.

And he fencedH5823 it, and gathered out the stonesH5619 thereof, and plantedH5193 it with the choicest vineH8321, and builtH1129 a towerH4026 in the midstH8432 of it, and also madeH2672 a winepressH3342 therein: and he lookedH6960 that it should bring forthH6213 grapesH6025, and it brought forthH6213 wild grapesH891. {fenced: or, made a wall about} {made: Heb. hewed}
And now, O inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and menH376 of JudahH3063, judgeH8199, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyardH3754.
What could have been doneH6213 more to my vineyardH3754, that I have not doneH6213 in it? whereforeH4069, when I lookedH6960 that it should bring forthH6213 grapesH6025, brought it forthH6213 wild grapesH891?
And when they cameH935 to MarahH4785, they couldH3201 not drinkH8354 of the watersH4325 of MarahH4785, for they were bitterH4751: therefore the nameH8034 of it was calledH7121 MarahH4785. {Marah: that is Bitterness}
And the peopleH5971 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872, sayingH559, What shall we drinkH8354?
And he criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 shewedH3384 him a treeH6086, which when he had castH7993 into the watersH4325, the watersH4325 were made sweetH4985: there he madeH7760 for them a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941, and there he provedH5254 them,
Yet I had plantedH5193 thee a noble vineH8321, wholly a rightH571 seedH2233: how then art thou turnedH2015 into the degenerate plantH5494 of a strangeH5237 vineH1612 unto me?
And the menH582 of the cityH5892 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, Behold, I pray thee, the situationH4186 of this cityH5892 is pleasantH2896, as my lordH113 seethH7200: but the waterH4325 is naughtH7451, and the groundH776 barrenH7921. {barren: Heb. causing to miscarry}
And he saidH559, BringH3947 me a newH2319 cruseH6746, and putH7760 saltH4417 therein. And they broughtH3947 it to him.
And he went forthH3318 unto the springH4161 of the watersH4325, and castH7993 the saltH4417 in there, and saidH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, I have healedH7495 these watersH4325; there shall not be from thence any more deathH4194 or barrenH7921 land.
So the watersH4325 were healedH7495 unto this dayH3117, according to the sayingH1697 of ElishaH477 which he spakeH1696.
Ye shall knowG1921 themG846 byG575 theirG846 fruitsG2590+G3385. Do men gatherG4816 grapesG4718 ofG575 thornsG173, orG2228 figsG4810 ofG575 thistlesG5146?
Even soG3779 everyG3956 goodG18 treeG1186 bringeth forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590; butG1161 a corruptG4550 treeG1186 bringeth forthG4160 evilG4190 fruitG2590.
A goodG18 treeG1186 cannotG3756+G1410 bring forthG4160 evilG4190 fruitG2590, neitherG3761 can a corruptG4550 treeG1186 bring forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590.
EveryG3956 treeG1186 that bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
WhereforeG686 byG575 theirG846 fruitsG2590 ye shall knowG1921 themG846.
Then saidH559 he unto me, These watersH4325 issue outH3318 toward the eastH6930 countryH1552, and go downH3381 into the desertH6160, and goH935 into the seaH3220: which being brought forthH3318 into the seaH3220, the watersH4325 shall be healedH7495. {desert: or, plain}
And it shall come to pass, that every thingH5315 that livethH2416, which movethH8317, whithersoever the riversH5158 shall comeH935, shall liveH2421: and there shall be a veryH3966 greatH7227 multitude of fishH1710, because these watersH4325 shall comeH935 thither: for they shall be healedH7495; and every thing shall liveH2425 whither the riverH5158 comethH935. {rivers: Heb. two rivers}
And it shall come to pass, that the fishersH1728 shall standH5975+H5975 upon it from EngediH5872 even unto EneglaimH5882; they shall be a place to spread forthH4894 netsH2764; their fishH1710 shall be according to their kindsH4327, as the fishH1710 of the greatH1419 seaH3220, exceedingH3966 manyH7227.
But the miry placesH1207 thereof and the marishesH1360 thereof shall not be healedH7495; they shall be givenH5414 to saltH4417. {shall not…: or, and that which shall not be healed}
EitherG2228 makeG4160 the treeG1186 goodG2570, andG2532 hisG846 fruitG2590 goodG2570; or elseG2228 makeG4160 the treeG1186 corruptG4550, andG2532 hisG846 fruitG2590 corruptG4550: forG1063 the treeG1186 is knownG1097 byG1537 his fruitG2590.
ForG1063 a goodG2570 treeG1186 bringethG2076+G4160 notG3756 forthG4160 corruptG4550 fruitG2590; neitherG3761 dothG4160 a corruptG4550 treeG1186 bring forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590.
ForG1063 everyG1538 treeG1186 is knownG1097 byG1537 his ownG2398 fruitG2590. ForG1063 ofG1537 thornsG173 men do notG3756 gatherG4816 figsG4810, norG3761 ofG1537 a bramble bushG942 gather theyG5166 grapesG4718. {grapes: Gr. a grape}
ForG1161 ifG1487 the firstfruitG536 be holyG40, the lumpG5445 is alsoG2532 holy: andG2532 ifG1487 the rootG4491 be holyG40, soG2532 are the branchesG2798.
AndG1161 if someG1536 of the branchesG2798 be broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771, beingG5607 a wild olive treeG65, wert graffed inG1461 amongG1722 themG846, andG2532 withG4791 themG1096 partakestG4791 of the rootG4491 andG2532 fatnessG4096 of the olive treeG1636; {among them: or, for them}
BoastG2620 notG3361 againstG2620 the branchesG2798. ButG1161 ifG1487 thou boastG2620, thouG4771 bearestG941 notG3756 the rootG4491, butG235 the rootG4491 theeG4571.
