The eldersG4245 which are amongG1722 youG5213 I exhortG3870, whoG3588 am also an elderG4850, andG2532 a witnessG3144 of the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, and alsoG2532 a partakerG2844 of the gloryG1391 that shallG3195 be revealedG601:
FeedG4165 the flockG4168 of GodG2316 which is amongG1722 youG5213, taking the oversightG1983 thereof, notG3361 by constraintG317, butG235 willinglyG1596; notG3366 for filthy lucreG147, butG235 of a ready mindG4290; {which…: or, as much as in you is}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
AndG2532 when the chief ShepherdG750 shall appearG5319, ye shall receiveG2865 a crownG4735 of gloryG1391 that fadeth not awayG262.
LikewiseG3668, ye youngerG3501, submit yourselvesG5293 unto the elderG4245. YeaG1161, allG3956 of you be subjectG5293 one to anotherG240, and be clothedG1463 with humilityG5012: forG3754 GodG2316 resistethG498 the proudG5244, andG1161 givethG1325 graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.
Humble yourselvesG5013 thereforeG3767 underG5259 the mightyG2900 handG5495 of GodG2316, thatG2443 he may exaltG5312 youG5209 inG1722 due timeG2540:
CastingG1977 allG3956 yourG5216 careG3308 uponG1909 himG846; forG3754 heG846 carethG3199 forG4012 youG5216.
Be soberG3525, be vigilantG1127; becauseG3754 yourG5216 adversaryG476 the devilG1228, asG5613 a roaringG5612 lionG3023, walketh aboutG4043, seekingG2212 whomG5101 he may devourG2666:
WhomG3739 resistG436 stedfastG4731 in the faithG4102, knowingG1492 that the sameG846 afflictionsG3804 are accomplishedG2005 in yourG5216 brethrenG81 that are inG1722 the worldG2889.
ButG1161 the GodG2316 of allG3956 graceG5485, whoG3588 hath calledG2564 usG2248 untoG1519 hisG846 eternalG166 gloryG1391 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, after that ye have sufferedG3958 a whileG3641+G846, makeG2675 youG5209 perfectG2675, stablishG4741, strengthenG4599, settleG2311 you.
To himG846 be gloryG1391 andG2532 dominionG2904 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
ByG1223 SilvanusG4610, a faithfulG4103 brotherG80 unto youG5213, asG5613 I supposeG3049, I have writtenG1125 brieflyG1223+G3641, exhortingG3870, andG2532 testifyingG1957 that thisG5026 isG1511 the trueG227 graceG5485 of GodG2316 whereinG1519+G3739 ye standG2476.
The church that is atG1722 BabylonG897, elected together withG4899 you, salutethG782 youG5209; andG2532 so doth MarcusG3138 myG3450 sonG5207.
Greet yeG782 one anotherG240 withG1722 a kissG5370 of charityG26. PeaceG1515 be with youG5213 allG3956 that are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. AmenG281.

WhereforeG1352 gird upG328 the loinsG3751 of yourG5216 mindG1271, be soberG3525, and hopeG1679 to the endG5049 forG1909 the graceG5485 that is to be broughtG5342 unto youG5213 atG1722 the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547; {to the end: Gr. perfectly}
And EstherH635 saidH559, The adversaryH376+H6862 and enemyH341 is this wickedH7451 HamanH2001. Then HamanH2001 was afraidH1204 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and the queenH4436. {The adversary: Heb. The man adversary} {before: or, at the presence of}

Then wentH3381 SamsonH8123 downH3381, and his fatherH1 and his motherH517, to TimnathH8553, and cameH935 to the vineyardsH3754 of TimnathH8553: and, behold, a youngH3715 lionH738 roaredH7580 againstH7125 him. {against…: Heb. in meeting him}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, WhenceH370 comestH935 thou? Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, From going to and froH7751 in the earthH776, and from walking up and downH1980 in it.
There is a conspiracyH7195 of her prophetsH5030 in the midstH8432 thereof, like a roaringH7580 lionH738 raveningH2963 the preyH2964; they have devouredH398 soulsH5315; they have takenH3947 the treasureH2633 and precious thingsH3366; they have made her manyH7235 widowsH490 in the midstH8432 thereof.
ButG1161 the endG5056 of all thingsG3956 is at handG1448: be yeG4993 thereforeG3767 soberG4993, andG2532 watchG3525 untoG1519 prayerG4335.
Now there was a dayH3117 when the sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to presentH3320 themselves before the LORDH3068, and SatanH7854 cameH935 also amongH8432 them. {Satan: Heb. the adversary} {among: Heb. in the midst of}

But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 evilG2556 servantG1401 shall sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064;

The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 shall comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 for him, andG2532 inG1722 an hourG5610 thatG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 aware ofG1097,

The enemyG2190 that sowedG4687 themG846 isG2076 the devilG1228+G1161; the harvestG2326 isG2076 the endG4930 of the worldG165; andG1161 the reapersG2327 areG1526 the angelsG32.
The king'sH4428 wrathH2197 is as the roaringH5099 of a lionH3715; but his favourH7522 is as dewH2919 upon the grassH6212.
I will meetH6298 them as a bearH1677 that is bereavedH7909 of her whelps, and will rendH7167 the caulH5458 of their heartH3820, and there will I devourH398 them like a lionH3833: the wildH7704 beastH2416 shall tearH1234 them. {wild…: Heb. beast of the field}
But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 servantG1401 sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064; andG2532 shall beginG756 to beatG5180 the menservantsG3816 andG2532 maidensG3814, andG5037 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 to be drunkenG3182;
SetH6485 thou a wicked manH7563 over him: and let SatanH7854 standH5975 at his right handH3225. {Satan: or, an adversary}
ThenG5119 shall he sayG2046 alsoG2532 unto them onG1537 the left handG2176, DepartG4198 fromG575 meG1700, ye cursedG2672, intoG1519 everlastingG166 fireG4442, preparedG2090 for the devilG1228 andG2532 hisG846 angelsG32:
The fearH367 of a kingH4428 is as the roaringH5099 of a lionH3715: whoso provoketh him to angerH5674 sinnethH2398 against his own soulH5315.
The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 will comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 forG4328 him, andG2532 atG1722 an hourG5610 whenG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 awareG1097, andG2532 will cutG1371 himG846 in sunderG1371, andG2532 will appointG5087 him hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 the unbelieversG571. {cut…: or, cut him off}
He is nearH7138 that justifiethH6663 me; who will contendH7378 with me? let us standH5975 togetherH3162: who is mine adversaryH1167+H4941? let him come nearH5066 to me. {mine…: Heb. the master of my cause?}
YeG5210 areG2075 ofG1537 your fatherG3962 the devilG1228, andG2532 the lustsG1939 of yourG5216 fatherG3962 ye willG2309 doG4160. HeG1565 wasG2258 a murdererG443 fromG575 the beginningG746, andG2532 abodeG2476 notG3756 inG1722 the truthG225, becauseG3754 there isG2076 noG3756 truthG225 inG1722 himG846. WhenG3752 he speakethG2980 a lieG5579, he speakethG2980 ofG1537 his ownG2398: forG3754 he isG2076 a liarG5583, andG2532 the fatherG3962 of itG846. {of his own: or, from his own will or disposition}
Their roaringH7581 shall be like a lionH3833, they shall roarH7580+H7580 like young lionsH3715: yea, they shall roarH5098, and lay holdH270 of the preyH2964, and shall carry it away safeH6403, and none shall deliverH5337 it.
AndG1161 take heedG4337 to yourselvesG1438, lest at any timeG3379 yourG5216 heartsG2588 be overchargedG925 withG1722 surfeitingG2897, andG2532 drunkennessG3178, andG2532 caresG3308 of this lifeG982, andG2532 so thatG1565 dayG2250 comeG2186 uponG1909 youG5209 unawaresG160.
And he shewedH7200 me JoshuaH3091 the highH1419 priestH3548 standingH5975 beforeH6440 the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068, and SatanH7854 standingH5975 at his right handH3225 to resistH7853 him. {Satan: that is, an adversary} {to…: Heb. to be his adversary}
And in that dayH3117 they shall roarH5098 against them like the roaringH5100 of the seaH3220: and if one lookH5027 unto the landH776, behold darknessH2822 and sorrowH6862, and the lightH216 is darkenedH2821 in the heavensH6183 thereof. {sorrow: or, distress} {and the light…: or, when it is light, it shall be dark in the destructions thereof}
Watch yeG69 thereforeG3767, and prayG1189 alwaysG1722+G3956+G2540, thatG2443 ye may be accounted worthyG2661 to escapeG1628 allG3956 these thingsG5023 that shallG3195 come to passG1096, andG2532 to standG2476 beforeG1715 the SonG5207 of manG444.
AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, SimonG4613, SimonG4613, beholdG2400, SatanG4567 hath desiredG1809 to have youG5209, that he may siftG4617 you asG5613 wheatG4621:
Put onG1746 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG4314 yeG5209 may be ableG1410 to standG2476 againstG4314 the wilesG3180 of the devilG1228.
How art thou fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, O LuciferH1966, sonH1121 of the morningH7837+H3213! how art thou cut downH1438 to the groundH776, which didst weakenH2522 the nationsH1471! {O Lucifer: or, O day star}
AndG2532 thatG5124, knowingG1492 the timeG2540, thatG3754 nowG2235 it is high timeG5610 to awakeG2248+G1453 out ofG1537 sleepG5258: forG1063 nowG3568 is ourG2257 salvationG4991 nearerG1452 thanG2228 whenG3753 we believedG4100.
The nightG3571 is far spentG4298+G1161, the dayG2250 is at handG1448: let usG659 thereforeG3767 cast offG659 the worksG2041 of darknessG4655, andG2532 let us put onG1746 the armourG3696 of lightG5457.
Let us walkG4043 honestlyG2156, asG5613 inG1722 the dayG2250; notG3361 in riotingG2970 andG2532 drunkennessG3178, notG3361 in chamberingG2845 andG2532 wantonnessG766, notG3361 in strifeG2054 andG2532 envyingG2205. {honestly: or, decently}
Submit yourselvesG5293 thereforeG3767 to GodG2316. ResistG436 the devilG1228, andG2532 he will fleeG5343 fromG575 youG5216.
For thou hast saidH559 in thine heartH3824, I will ascendH5927 into heavenH8064, I will exaltH7311 my throneH3678 aboveH4605 the starsH3556 of GodH410: I will sitH3427 also upon the mountH2022 of the congregationH4150, in the sidesH3411 of the northH6828:
ThereforeG686+G3767 let usG2518 notG3361 sleepG2518, asG5613+G2532 do othersG3062; butG235 let us watchG1127 andG2532 be soberG3525.
ForG1063 they that sleepG2518 sleepG2518 in the nightG3571; andG2532 they that be drunkenG3182 are drunkenG3184 in the nightG3571.
ButG1161 letG3525 usG2249, who areG5607 of the dayG2250, be soberG3525, putting onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26; andG2532 for an helmetG4030, the hopeG1680 of salvationG4991.
He that committethG4160 sinG266 isG2076 ofG1537 the devilG1228; forG3754 the devilG1228 sinnethG264 fromG575 the beginningG746. ForG1519 this purposeG5124 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 was manifestedG5319, thatG2443 he might destroyG3089 the worksG2041 of the devilG1228.
WhosoeverG3956 is bornG1080 ofG1537 GodG2316 dothG4160 notG3756 commit sinG266; forG3754 hisG846 seedG4690 remainethG3306 inG1722 himG846: andG2532 he cannotG3756+G1410 sinG264, becauseG3754 he is bornG1080 ofG1537 GodG2316.
InG1722 thisG5129 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316 areG2076 manifestG5318, andG2532 the childrenG5043 of the devilG1228: whosoeverG3956 doethG4160 notG3361 righteousnessG1343 isG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 GodG2316, neitherG2532 he that lovethG25 notG3361 hisG846 brotherG80.
The young lionsH3715 roaredH7580 upon him, and yelledH5414+H6963, and they madeH7896 his landH776 wasteH8047: his citiesH5892 are burnedH3341 without inhabitantH3427. {yelled: Heb. gave out their voice}
In like mannerG5615 alsoG2532, that womenG1135 adornG2885 themselvesG1438 inG1722 modestG2887 apparelG2689, withG3326 shamefacednessG127 andG2532 sobrietyG4997; notG3361 withG1722 broided hairG4117, orG2228 goldG5557, orG2228 pearlsG3135, orG2228 costlyG4185 arrayG2441; {broided: or, plaited}
AndG2532 the greatG3173 dragonG1404 was cast outG906, that oldG744 serpentG3789, calledG2564 the DevilG1228, andG2532 SatanG4567, whichG3588 deceivethG4105 the wholeG3650 worldG3625: he was cast outG906 intoG1519 the earthG1093, andG2532 hisG846 angelsG32 were cast outG906 withG3326 himG846.
They shall roarH7580 togetherH3162 like lionsH3715: they shall yellH5286 as lions'H738 whelpsH1484. {yell: or, shake themselves}
NotwithstandingG1161 she shall be savedG4982 inG1223 childbearingG5042, ifG1437 they continueG3306 inG1722 faithG4102 andG2532 charityG26 andG2532 holinessG38 withG3326 sobrietyG4997.
AndG2532 he laid hold onG2902 the dragonG1404, that oldG744 serpentG3789, whichG3739 isG2076 the DevilG1228, andG2532 SatanG4567, andG2532 boundG1210 himG846 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094,
And he knewH3045 their desolate palacesH490, and he laid wasteH2717 their citiesH5892; and the landH776 was desolateH3456, and the fulnessH4393 thereof, by the noiseH6963 of his roaringH7581. {their desolate…: or, their widows} {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
A bishopG1985 thenG3767 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG423, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, vigilantG3524, soberG4998, of good behaviourG2887, given to hospitalityG5382, apt to teachG1317; {of good…: or, modest}
AndG2532 the devilG1228 that deceivedG4105 themG846 was castG906 intoG1519 the lakeG3041 of fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303, whereG3699 the beastG2342 andG2532 the false prophetG5578 are, andG2532 shall be tormentedG928 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 forG1519 everG165 and everG165.
They shall walkH3212 afterH310 the LORDH3068: he shall roarH7580 like a lionH738: when he shall roarH7580, then the childrenH1121 shall trembleH2729 from the westH3220.
Even soG5615 must their wivesG1135 be graveG4586, notG3361 slanderersG1228, soberG3524, faithfulG4103 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
The LORDH3068 also shall roarH7580 out of ZionH6726, and utterH5414 his voiceH6963 from JerusalemH3389; and the heavensH8064 and the earthH776 shall shakeH7493: but the LORDH3068 will be the hopeH4268 of his peopleH5971, and the strengthH4581 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. {hope: Heb. place of repair, or, harbour}
ButG235 a lover of hospitalityG5382, a lover of good menG5358, soberG4998, justG1342, holyG3741, temperateG1468; {men: or, things}
And he saidH559, The LORDH3068 will roarH7580 from ZionH6726, and utterH5414 his voiceH6963 from JerusalemH3389; and the habitationsH4999 of the shepherdsH7462 shall mournH56, and the topH7218 of CarmelH3760 shall witherH3001.
That the aged menG4246 beG1511 soberG3524, graveG4586, temperateG4998, soundG5198 in faithG4102, in charityG26, in patienceG5281. {sober: or, vigilant}
Will a lionH738 roarH7580 in the forestH3293, when he hath no preyH2964? will a young lionH3715 cry outH5414+H6963 of his denH4585, if he have takenH3920 nothingH1115? {cry: Heb. give forth his voice}
ThatG2443 they may teachG4994 the young womenG3501 to beG1511 soberG4994, to love their husbandsG5362, to love their childrenG5388, {sober: or, wise}
The lionH738 hath roaredH7580, who will notH3808 fearH3372? the LordH136 GODH3069 hath spokenH1696, who can but prophesyH5012?
There is a voiceH6963 of the howlingH3215 of the shepherdsH7462; for their gloryH155 is spoiledH7703: a voiceH6963 of the roaringH7581 of young lionsH3715; for the prideH1347 of JordanH3383 is spoiledH7703.
TeachingG3811 usG2248 thatG2443, denyingG720 ungodlinessG763 andG2532 worldlyG2886 lustsG1939, we should liveG2198 soberlyG4996+G2532, righteouslyG1346, andG2532 godlyG2153, inG1722 this presentG3568 worldG165;
NotwithstandingG1161 the LordG2962 stoodG3936 with meG3427, andG2532 strengthenedG1743 meG3165; thatG2443 byG1223 meG1700 the preachingG2782 might be fully knownG4135, andG2532 that allG3956 the GentilesG1484 might hearG191: andG2532 I was deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the mouthG4750 of the lionG3023.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 rejoiceG2165, ye heavensG3772, andG2532 ye that dwellG4637 inG1722 themG846. WoeG3759 to the inhabitersG2730 of the earthG1093 andG2532 of the seaG2281! forG3754 the devilG1228 is come downG2597 untoG4314 youG5209, havingG2192 greatG3173 wrathG2372, because he knowethG1492 thatG3754 he hathG2192 but a shortG3641 timeG2540.
