ElectG1588 accordingG2596 to the foreknowledgeG4268 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962, throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151, untoG1519 obedienceG5218 andG2532 sprinklingG4473 of the bloodG129 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: GraceG5485 unto youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, be multipliedG4129.
BlessedG2128 be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whichG3588 according toG2596 hisG846 abundantG4183 mercyG1656 hath begottenG313 usG2248 againG313 untoG1519 a livelyG2198 hopeG1680 byG1223 the resurrectionG386 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498, {abundant: Gr. much}
ToG1519 an inheritanceG2817 incorruptibleG862, andG2532 undefiledG283, andG2532 that fadeth not awayG263, reservedG5083 inG1722 heavenG3772 forG1519 youG5209, {for you: or, for us}
WhoG3588 are keptG5432 byG1722 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 throughG1223 faithG4102 untoG1519 salvationG4991 readyG2092 to be revealedG601 inG1722 the lastG2078 timeG2540.
WhereinG1722+G3739 ye greatly rejoiceG21, though nowG737 for a seasonG3641, ifG1487 needG1163 beG2076, ye are in heavinessG3076 throughG1722 manifoldG4164 temptationsG3986:
ThatG2443 the trialG1383 of yourG5216 faithG4102, being muchG4183 more preciousG5093 than of goldG5553 that perishethG622, thoughG1223+G1161 it be triedG1381 with fireG4442, might be foundG2147 untoG1519 praiseG1868 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 atG1722 the appearingG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
WhomG3739 havingG1492 notG3756 seenG1492, ye loveG25; inG1519 whomG3739, though nowG737 ye seeG3708 him notG3361, yetG1161 believingG4100, ye rejoiceG21 with joyG5479 unspeakableG412 andG2532 full of gloryG1392:
ReceivingG2865 the endG5056 of yourG5216 faithG4102, even the salvationG4991 of your soulsG5590.
OfG4012 whichG3739 salvationG4991 the prophetsG4396 have enquiredG1567 andG2532 searched diligentlyG1830, whoG3588 prophesiedG4395 ofG4012 the graceG5485 that should come untoG1519 youG5209:
SearchingG2045 whatG1519+G5101, orG2228 what mannerG4169 of timeG2540 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 whichG3588 was inG1722 themG846 did signifyG1213, when it testified beforehandG4303 the sufferingsG3804 ofG1519 ChristG5547, andG2532 the gloryG1391 that should followG3326+G5023.
Unto whomG3739 it was revealedG601, thatG3754 notG3756 unto themselvesG1438, butG1161 unto usG2254 they did ministerG1247 the thingsG846, whichG3739 areG312 nowG3568 reportedG312 unto youG5213 byG1223 them that have preached the gospelG2097 unto youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 sent downG649 fromG575 heavenG3772; which thingsG3739 the angelsG32 desireG1937 to lookG3879 intoG1519.
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}
AsG5613 obedientG5218 childrenG5043, notG3361 fashioning yourselves according toG4964 the formerG4386 lustsG1939 inG1722 yourG5216 ignoranceG52:
ButG235 asG2596 he which hath calledG2564 youG5209 is holyG40, soG2532 beG1096 yeG846 holyG40 inG1722 allG3956 manner of conversationG391;
BecauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, Be yeG1096 holyG40; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.
AndG2532 ifG1487 ye call onG1941 the FatherG3962, whoG3588 without respect of personsG678 judgethG2919 according toG2596 every man'sG1538 workG2041, passG390 the timeG5550 of yourG5216 sojourningG3940 here inG1722 fearG5401:
Forasmuch as ye knowG1492 thatG3754 ye wereG3084 notG3756 redeemedG3084 with corruptible thingsG5349, as silverG694 andG2228 goldG5553, fromG1537 yourG5216 vainG3152 conversationG391 received by tradition from your fathersG3970;
ButG235 with the preciousG5093 bloodG129 of ChristG5547, asG5613 of a lambG286 without blemishG299 andG2532 without spotG784:
Who verilyG3303 was foreordainedG4267 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, butG1161 was manifestG5319 inG1909 these lastG2078 timesG5550 forG1223 youG5209,
WhoG3588 byG1223 himG846 do believeG4100 inG1519 GodG2316, that raisedG1453 himG846 upG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 gloryG1391; thatG5620 yourG5216 faithG4102 andG2532 hopeG1680 might beG1511 inG1519 GodG2316.
Seeing ye have purifiedG48 yourG5216 soulsG5590 inG1722 obeyingG5218 the truthG225 throughG1223 the SpiritG4151 untoG1519 unfeignedG505 love of the brethrenG5360, see that ye loveG25 one anotherG240 withG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588 ferventlyG1619:
Being born againG313, notG3756 ofG1537 corruptibleG5349 seedG4701, butG235 of incorruptibleG862, byG1223 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, which livethG2198 andG2532 abidethG3306 forG1519 everG165.
ForG1360 allG3956 fleshG4561 is asG5613 grassG5528, andG2532 allG3956 the gloryG1391 of manG444 asG5613 the flowerG438 of grassG5528. The grassG5528 witherethG3583, andG2532 the flowerG438 thereofG846 falleth awayG1601: {For: or, For that}
ButG1161 the wordG4487 of the LordG2962 endurethG3306 forG1519 everG165. AndG1161 thisG5124 isG2076 the wordG4487 whichG3588 by the gospel is preachedG2097 untoG1519 youG5209.
There wasG2258 a manG444 ofG1537 the PhariseesG5330, namedG3686+G846 NicodemusG3530, a rulerG758 of the JewsG2453:
The sameG3778 cameG2064 toG4314 JesusG2424 by nightG3571, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou artG2064 a teacherG1320 comeG2064 fromG575 GodG2316: forG1063 no manG3762 canG1410 doG4160 theseG5023 miraclesG4592 thatG3739 thouG4771 doestG4160, exceptG3362 GodG2316 beG5600 withG3326 himG846.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, ExceptG3362 a manG5100 be bornG1080 againG509, he cannotG1410+G3756 seeG1492 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. {again: or, from above}
NicodemusG3530 saithG3004 untoG4314 himG846, HowG4459 canG1410 a manG444 be bornG1080 when he isG5607 oldG1088? canG3361+G1410 he enterG1525 the second timeG1208 intoG1519 hisG846 mother'sG3384 wombG2836, andG2532 be bornG1080?
JesusG2424 answeredG611, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, ExceptG3362 a manG5100 be bornG1080 ofG1537 waterG5204 andG2532 of the SpiritG4151, he cannotG3756+G1410 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.
That which is bornG1080 ofG1537 the fleshG4561 isG2076 fleshG4561; andG2532 that which is bornG1080 ofG1537 the SpiritG4151 isG2076 spiritG4151.
MarvelG2296 notG3361 thatG3754 I saidG2036 unto theeG4671, YeG5209 mustG1163 be bornG1080 againG509. {again: or, from above}
The windG4151 blowethG4154 whereG3699 it listethG2309, andG2532 thou hearestG191 the soundG5456 thereofG846, butG235 canstG1492 notG3756 tellG1492 whenceG4159 it comethG2064, andG2532 whitherG4226 it goethG5217: soG3779 isG2076 every oneG3956 that is bornG1080 ofG1537 the SpiritG4151.
NicodemusG3530 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, HowG4459 canG1410 these thingsG5023 beG1096?
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, ArtG1488 thouG4771 a masterG1320 of IsraelG2474, andG2532 knowestG1097 notG3756 these thingsG5023?
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, We speakG2980 thatG3754+G3739 we do knowG1492, andG2532 testifyG3140 thatG3739 we have seenG3708; andG2532 ye receiveG2983 notG3756 ourG2257 witnessG3141.
IfG1487 I have toldG2036 youG5213 earthly thingsG1919, andG2532 ye believeG4100 notG3756, howG4459 shall ye believeG4100, ifG1437 I tellG2036 youG5213 of heavenly thingsG2032?
AndG2532 no manG3762 hath ascended upG305 toG1519 heavenG3772, butG1508 he that came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772, even the SonG5207 of manG444 whichG3588 isG5607 inG1722 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 asG2531 MosesG3475 lifted upG5312 the serpentG3789 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, even soG3779 mustG1163 the SonG5207 of manG444 be lifted upG5312:
ThatG3363 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3363 perishG622, butG235 haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25 the worldG2889, thatG5620 he gaveG1325 hisG846 only begottenG3439 SonG5207, thatG2443 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3361 perishG622, butG235 haveG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 GodG2316 sentG649 notG3756 hisG846 SonG5207 intoG1519 the worldG2889 toG2443 condemnG2919 the worldG2889; butG235 thatG2443 the worldG2889 throughG1223 himG846 might be savedG4982.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 himG846 isG2919 notG3756 condemnedG2919: butG1161 he that believethG4100 notG3361 is condemnedG2919 alreadyG2235, becauseG3754 he hathG4100 notG3361 believedG4100 inG1519 the nameG3686 of the only begottenG3439 SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 thisG3778 isG2076 the condemnationG2920, thatG3754 lightG5457 is comeG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 menG444 lovedG25 darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 lightG5457, becauseG1063 theirG846 deedsG2041 wereG2258 evilG4190.
ForG1063 every oneG3956 that doethG4238 evilG5337 hatethG3404 the lightG5457, neitherG2532+G3756 comethG2064 toG4314 the lightG5457, lestG3363 hisG846 deedsG2041 should be reprovedG1651. {reproved: or, discovered}
ButG1161 he that doethG4160 truthG225 comethG2064 toG4314 the lightG5457, thatG2443 hisG846 deedsG2041 may be made manifestG5319, thatG3754 they areG2076 wroughtG2038 inG1722 GodG2316.
AfterG3326 these thingsG5023 cameG2064 JesusG2424 andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 intoG1519 the landG1093 of JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thereG1563 he tarriedG1304 withG3326 themG846, andG2532 baptizedG907.
AndG1161 JohnG2491 alsoG2532 wasG2258 baptizingG907 inG1722 AenonG137 nearG1451 to SalimG4530, becauseG3754 there wasG2258 muchG4183 waterG5204 thereG1563: andG2532 they cameG3854, andG2532 were baptizedG907.
ForG1063 JohnG2491 wasG2258 not yetG3768 castG906 intoG1519 prisonG5438.
ThenG3767 there aroseG1096 a questionG2214 betweenG3326 some ofG1537 John'sG2491 disciplesG3101 and the JewsG2453 aboutG4012 purifyingG2512.
AndG2532 they cameG2064 untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, heG3739 that wasG2258 withG3326 theeG4675 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, to whomG3739 thouG4771 barest witnessG3140, beholdG2396, the sameG3778 baptizethG907, andG2532 allG3956 men comeG2064 toG4314 himG846.
JohnG2491 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, A manG444 canG1410+G3756 receiveG2983 nothingG3762, exceptG3362 it beG5600 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. {receive: or, take unto himself}
YeG5210 yourselvesG846 bearG3140 meG3427 witnessG3140, thatG3754 I saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 the ChristG5547, butG235 thatG3754 I amG1510 sentG649 beforeG1715 himG1565.
He that hathG2192 the brideG3565 isG2076 the bridegroomG3566: butG1161 the friendG5384 of the bridegroomG3566, whichG3588 standethG2476 andG2532 hearethG191 himG846, rejoicethG5463 greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 of the bridegroom'sG3566 voiceG5456: thisG3778 myG1699 joyG5479 thereforeG3767 is fulfilledG4137.
HeG1565 mustG1163 increaseG837, butG1161 IG1691 must decreaseG1642.
He that comethG2064 from aboveG509 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956: he that isG5607 ofG1537 the earthG1093 isG2076 earthlyG1537+G1093, andG2532 speakethG2980 ofG1537 the earthG1093: he that comethG2064 fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956.
AndG2532 whatG3739 he hath seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191, thatG5124 he testifiethG3140; andG2532 no manG3762 receivethG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141.
He that hath receivedG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141 hath set to his sealG4972 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 trueG227.
ForG1063 he whomG3739 GodG2316 hath sentG649 speakethG2980 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316: forG1063 GodG2316 givethG1325 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 byG1537 measureG3358 unto him.
The FatherG3962 lovethG25 the SonG5207, andG2532 hath givenG1325 all thingsG3956 intoG1722 hisG846 handG5495.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 hathG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG1161 he that believeth notG544 the SonG5207 shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700 lifeG2222; butG235 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidethG3306 onG1909 himG846.
