King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
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.
AsG2531 every manG1538 hath receivedG2983 the giftG5486, even so ministerG1247 the sameG846 one to anotherG1519+G1438, asG5613 goodG2570 stewardsG3623 of the manifoldG4164 graceG5485 of GodG2316.
If any manG1536 speakG2980, let him speak asG5613 the oraclesG3051 of GodG2316; if any manG1536 ministerG1247, let him do it asG5613 ofG1537 the abilityG2479 whichG3739 GodG2316 givethG5524: thatG2443 GodG2316 inG1722 all thingsG3956 may be glorifiedG1392 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to whomG3739 beG2076 praiseG1391 andG2532 dominionG2904 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
WhereforeG3767 laying asideG659 allG3956 maliceG2549, andG2532 allG3956 guileG1388, andG2532 hypocrisiesG5272, andG2532 enviesG5355, andG2532 allG3956 evil speakingsG2636,
AsG5613 newbornG738 babesG1025, desireG1971 the sincereG97 milkG1051 of the wordG3050, thatG2443 ye may growG837 therebyG1722+G846:
If so beG1512 ye have tastedG1089 thatG3754 the LordG2962 is graciousG5543.
ToG4314 whomG3739 comingG4334, as unto a livingG2198 stoneG3037, disallowedG593 indeedG3303 ofG5259 menG444, butG1161 chosenG1588 ofG3844 GodG2316, and preciousG1784,
YeG846 alsoG2532, asG5613 livelyG2198 stonesG3037, are built upG3618 a spiritualG4152 houseG3624, an holyG40 priesthoodG2406, to offer upG399 spiritualG4152 sacrificesG2378, acceptableG2144 to GodG2316 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {are: or, be ye}
WhereforeG1352 alsoG2532 it is containedG4023 inG1722 the scriptureG1124, BeholdG2400, I layG5087 inG1722 SionG4622 a chief cornerG204 stoneG3037, electG1588, preciousG1784: andG2532 he that believethG4100 onG1909 himG846 shallG2617 not beG3364 confoundedG2617.
Unto youG5213 thereforeG3767 whichG3588 believeG4100 he is preciousG5092: butG1161 unto them which be disobedientG544, the stoneG3037 whichG3739 the buildersG3618 disallowedG593, the sameG3778 is madeG1096+G1519 the headG2776 of the cornerG1137, {precious: or, an honour}
AndG2532 a stoneG3037 of stumblingG4348, andG2532 a rockG4073 of offenceG4625, even to them whichG3739 stumbleG4350 at the wordG3056, being disobedientG544: whereuntoG1519+G3739 alsoG2532 they were appointedG5087.
ButG1161 yeG5210 are a chosenG1588 generationG1085, a royalG934 priesthoodG2406, an holyG40 nationG1484, a peculiarG1519+G4047 peopleG2992; thatG3704 ye should shew forthG1804 the praisesG703 of him who hath calledG2564 youG5209 out ofG1537 darknessG4655 intoG1519 hisG846 marvellousG2298 lightG5457: {peculiar: or, purchased} {praises: or, virtues}
WhichG3588 in time pastG4218 were notG3756 a peopleG2992, butG1161 are nowG3568 the peopleG2992 of GodG2316: whichG3588 hadG1653 notG3756 obtained mercyG1653, butG1161 nowG3568 have obtained mercyG1653.
Dearly belovedG27, I beseechG3870 you asG5613 strangersG3941 andG2532 pilgrimsG3927, abstain fromG567 fleshlyG4559 lustsG1939, whichG3748 warG4754 againstG2596 the soulG5590;
HavingG2192 yourG5216 conversationG391 honestG2570 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484: thatG2443, whereasG1722+G3739 they speak againstG2635 youG5216 asG5613 evildoersG2555, they mayG1392 byG1537 your goodG2570 worksG2041, which they shall beholdG2029, glorifyG1392 GodG2316 inG1722 the dayG2250 of visitationG1984. {whereas: or, wherein}
Submit yourselvesG5293 to everyG3956 ordinanceG2937 of manG442 forG1223 the Lord's sakeG2962: whether it beG1535 to the kingG935, asG5613 supremeG5242;
OrG1535 unto governorsG2232, asG5613 unto them that are sentG3992 byG1223 himG846 forG1519+G3303 the punishmentG1557 of evildoersG2555, andG1161 for the praiseG1868 of them that do wellG17.
ForG3754 soG3779 isG2076 the willG2307 of GodG2316, that with well doingG15 ye may put to silenceG5392 the ignoranceG56 of foolishG878 menG444:
AsG5613 freeG1658, andG2532 notG3361 usingG2192 your libertyG1657 forG5613 a clokeG1942 of maliciousnessG2549, butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of GodG2316. {using: Gr. having}
HonourG5091 allG3956 men. LoveG25 the brotherhoodG81. FearG5399 GodG2316. HonourG5091 the kingG935. {Honour all: or, Esteem all}
ServantsG3610, be subjectG5293 to your mastersG1203 withG1722 allG3956 fearG5401; notG3756 onlyG3440 to the goodG18 andG2532 gentleG1933, butG235 alsoG2532 to the frowardG4646.
ForG1063 thisG5124 is thankworthyG5485, ifG1487 a manG5100 forG1223 conscienceG4893 toward GodG2316 endureG5297 griefG3077, sufferingG3958 wrongfullyG95. {thankworthy: or, thank}
ForG1063 whatG4169 gloryG2811 is it, ifG1487, whenG2532 ye be buffetedG2852 for your faultsG264, ye shall take it patientlyG5278? butG235 ifG1487, when ye do wellG15, andG2532 sufferG3958 for it, ye take it patientlyG5278, thisG5124 is acceptableG5485 withG3844 GodG2316. {acceptable: or, thank}
ForG1063 evenG1519 hereuntoG5124 were ye calledG2564: becauseG3754 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 sufferedG3958 forG5228 usG2257, leavingG5277 usG2254 an exampleG5261, thatG2443 ye should followG1872 hisG846 stepsG2487: {for us: some read, for you}
WhoG3739 didG4160 noG3756 sinG266, neitherG3761 was guileG1388 foundG2147 inG1722 hisG846 mouthG4750:
WhoG3739, when he was reviledG3058, reviledG486 notG3756 againG486; when he sufferedG3958, he threatenedG546 notG3756; butG1161 committedG3860 himself to him that judgethG2919 righteouslyG1346: {himself: or, his cause}
WhoG3739 his own selfG846 bareG399 ourG2257 sinsG266 inG1722 his ownG846 bodyG4983 onG1909 the treeG3586, thatG2443 weG2198, being deadG581 to sinsG266, should liveG2198 unto righteousnessG1343: byG3739 whoseG846 stripesG3468 ye were healedG2390. {on: or, to}
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 asG5613 sheepG4263 going astrayG4105; butG235 areG1994 nowG3568 returnedG1994 untoG1909 the ShepherdG4166 andG2532 BishopG1985 of yourG5216 soulsG5590.
SoG3767 whenG3753 they had dinedG709, JesusG2424 saithG3004 to SimonG4613 PeterG4074, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165 more thanG4119 theseG5130? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 lambsG721.
He saithG3004 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovestG5368 thou meG3165? PeterG4074 was grievedG3076 becauseG3754 he saidG2036 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, LovestG5368 thou meG3165? AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, LordG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492 all thingsG3956; thouG4771 knowestG1097 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 sheepG4263.
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, WhenG3753 thou wastG2258 youngG3501, thou girdedstG2224 thyselfG4572, andG2532 walkedstG4043 whitherG3699 thou wouldestG2309: butG1161 whenG3752 thou shalt be oldG1095, thou shalt stretch forthG1614 thyG4675 handsG5495, andG2532 anotherG243 shall girdG2224 theeG4571, andG2532 carryG5342 thee whitherG3699 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto themG846, The kingsG935 of the GentilesG1484 exercise lordship overG2961 themG846; andG2532 they that exercise authority uponG1850 themG846 are calledG2564 benefactorsG2110.
WhereforeG3767, brethrenG80, look ye outG1980 amongG1537 youG5216 sevenG2033 menG435 of honest reportG3140, fullG4134 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 wisdomG4678, whomG3739 we may appointG2525 overG1909 thisG5026 businessG5532.
AndG1161 when they had ordainedG5500 themG846 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 churchG1577, and had prayedG4336 withG3326 fastingG3521, they commendedG3908 themG846 to the LordG2962, onG1519 whomG3739 they believedG4100.
I beseechG3870 youG5209 thereforeG3767, brethrenG80, byG1223 the merciesG3628 of GodG2316, that ye presentG3936 yourG5216 bodiesG4983 a livingG2198 sacrificeG2378, holyG40, acceptableG2101 unto GodG2316, which is yourG5216 reasonableG3050 serviceG2999.
AndG2532 beG4964 notG3361 conformedG4964 to thisG5129 worldG165: butG235 be ye transformedG3339 by the renewingG342 of yourG5216 mindG3563, thatG1519 yeG5209 may proveG1381 whatG5101 is that goodG18, andG2532 acceptableG2101, andG2532 perfectG5046, willG2307 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 I sayG3004, throughG1223 the graceG5485 givenG1325 unto meG3427, to every manG3956 that isG5607 amongG1722 youG5213, notG3361 to think of himself moreG3844 highlyG5252 thanG3739 he oughtG1163 to thinkG5426; butG235 to thinkG5426 soberlyG1519+G4993, according asG5613 GodG2316 hath dealtG3307 to every manG1538 the measureG3358 of faithG4102. {soberly: Gr. to sobriety}
ForG1063 asG2509 we haveG2192 manyG4183 membersG3196 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG1161 allG3956 membersG3196 haveG2192 notG3756 the sameG846 officeG4234:
SoG3779 weG2070, being manyG4183, areG2070 oneG1520 bodyG4983 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG1161 everyG2596 oneG1520 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
HavingG2192 thenG1161 giftsG5486 differingG1313 accordingG2596 to the graceG5485 that is givenG1325 to usG2254, whetherG1535 prophecyG4394, let us prophesy accordingG2596 to the proportionG356 of faithG4102;
OrG1535 ministryG1248, let us wait onG1722 our ministeringG1248: orG1535 he that teachethG1321, onG1722 teachingG1319;
OrG1535 he that exhortethG3870, onG1722 exhortationG3874: he that givethG3330, let him do it withG1722 simplicityG572; he that rulethG4291, withG1722 diligenceG4710; he that sheweth mercyG1653, withG1722 cheerfulnessG2432. {giveth: or, imparteth} {with simplicity: or, liberally}
Let loveG26 be without dissimulationG505. AbhorG655 that which is evilG4190; cleaveG2853 to that which is goodG18.
Be kindly affectionedG5387 one to anotherG1519+G240 with brotherly loveG5360; in honourG5092 preferringG4285 one anotherG240; {with…: or, in the love of the brethren}
NotG3361 slothfulG3636 in businessG4710; ferventG2204 in spiritG4151; servingG1398 the LordG2962;
RejoicingG5463 in hopeG1680; patientG5278 in tribulationG2347; continuing instantG4342 in prayerG4335;
DistributingG2841 to the necessityG5532 of saintsG40; givenG1377 to hospitalityG5381.
BlessG2127 them which persecuteG1377 youG5209: blessG2127, andG2532 curseG2672 notG3361.
RejoiceG5463 withG3326 them that do rejoiceG5463, andG2532 weepG2799 withG3326 them that weepG2799.
Be of the sameG846 mindG5426 one toward anotherG1519+G240. MindG5426 notG3361 high thingsG5308, butG235 condescendG4879 to men of low estateG5011. BeG1096 notG3361 wiseG5429 inG3844 your own conceitsG1438. {condescend…: or, be contented with mean things}
RecompenseG591 to no manG3367 evilG2556 forG473 evilG2556. ProvideG4306 things honestG2570 in the sightG1799 of allG3956 menG444.
IfG1487 it be possibleG1415, as much as lieth inG1537 youG5216, live peaceablyG1514 withG3326 allG3956 menG444.
Dearly belovedG27, avengeG1556 notG3361 yourselvesG1438, butG235 rather giveG1325 placeG5117 unto wrathG3709: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, VengeanceG1557 is mineG1698; IG1473 will repayG467, saithG3004 the LordG2962.
ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 thineG4675 enemyG2190 hungerG3983, feedG5595 himG846; ifG1437 he thirstG1372, giveG4222 himG846 drinkG4222: forG1063 in soG5124 doingG4160 thou shalt heapG4987 coalsG440 of fireG4442 onG1909 hisG846 headG2776.
BeG3528 notG3361 overcomeG3528 ofG5259 evilG2556, butG235 overcomeG3528 evilG2556 withG1722 goodG18.
NowG1161 concerningG4012 spiritualG4152 gifts, brethrenG80, I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG2309 youG5209 ignorantG50.
Ye knowG1492 thatG3754 ye wereG2258 GentilesG1484, carried awayG520 untoG4314 these dumbG880 idolsG1497, even asG5613+G302 ye were ledG71.
WhereforeG1352 I giveG1107 youG5213 to understandG1107, thatG3754 no manG3762 speakingG2980 byG1722 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 callethG3004 JesusG2424 accursedG331: andG2532 that no manG3762 canG1410 sayG2036 that JesusG2424 is the LordG2962, butG1508 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {accursed: or, anathema}
NowG1161 there areG1526 diversitiesG1243 of giftsG5486, butG1161 the sameG846 SpiritG4151.
AndG2532 there areG1526 differencesG1243 of administrationsG1248, butG2532 the sameG846 LordG2962. {administrations: or, ministries}
AndG2532 there areG1526 diversitiesG1243 of operationsG1755, butG1161 it isG2076 the sameG846 GodG2316 whichG3588 workethG1754 allG3956 inG1722 allG3956.
ButG1161 the manifestationG5321 of the SpiritG4151 is givenG1325 to every manG1538 toG4314 profit withalG4851.
ForG1063 to oneG3739+G3303 is givenG1325 byG1223 the SpiritG4151 the wordG3056 of wisdomG4678+G1161; to anotherG243 the wordG3056 of knowledgeG1108 byG2596 the sameG846 SpiritG4151;
To anotherG2087 faithG4102 byG1722 the sameG846 SpiritG4151+G1161; to anotherG243 the giftsG5486 of healingG2386 byG1722 the sameG846 SpiritG4151;
To anotherG243 the workingG1755 of miraclesG1411+G1161; to anotherG243 prophecyG4394+G1161; to anotherG243 discerningG1253 of spiritsG4151+G1161; to anotherG2087 divers kindsG1085 of tonguesG1100+G1161; to anotherG243 the interpretationG2058 of tonguesG1100:
ButG1161 allG3956 theseG5023 workethG1754 that oneG1520 andG2532 the selfsameG846 SpiritG4151, dividingG1244 to every manG1538 severallyG2398 asG2531 he willG1014.
ForG1063 asG2509 the bodyG4983 isG2076 oneG1520, andG2532 hathG2192 manyG4183 membersG3196, andG1161 allG3956 the membersG3196 of that oneG1520 bodyG4983, beingG5607 manyG4183, areG2076 oneG1520 bodyG4983: soG3779 alsoG2532 is ChristG5547.
ForG1063+G2532 byG1722 oneG1520 SpiritG4151 areG907 weG2249 allG3956 baptizedG907 intoG1519 oneG1520 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 we be JewsG2453 orG1535 GentilesG1672, whetherG1535 we be bondG1401 orG1535 freeG1658; andG2532 have beenG4222 allG3956 made to drinkG4222 intoG1519 oneG1520 SpiritG4151. {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}
ForG1063 the bodyG4983 isG2076 notG3756 oneG1520 memberG3196, butG235 manyG4183.
IfG1437 the footG4228 shall sayG2036, BecauseG3754 I amG1510 notG3756 the handG5495, I amG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 the bodyG4983; isG2076 it thereforeG3756+G3844+G5124 notG3756 ofG1537 the bodyG4983?
AndG2532 ifG1437 the earG3775 shall sayG2036, BecauseG3754 I amG1510 notG3756 the eyeG3788, I amG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 the bodyG4983; isG2076 it thereforeG3756+G3844+G5124 notG3756 ofG1537 the bodyG4983?
IfG1487 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983 were an eyeG3788, whereG4226 were the hearingG189? IfG1487 the wholeG3650 were hearingG189, whereG4226 were the smellingG3750?
ButG1161 nowG3570 hathG5087 GodG2316 setG5087 the membersG3196 everyG1538 oneG1520 of themG846 inG1722 the bodyG4983, asG2531 it hath pleased himG2309.
AndG1161 ifG1487 they wereG2258 allG3956 oneG1520 memberG3196, whereG4226 were the bodyG4983?
ButG1161 nowG3568+G3303 are they manyG4183 membersG3196, yet butG1161 oneG1520 bodyG4983.
AndG1161 the eyeG3788 cannotG3756+G1410 sayG2036 unto the handG5495, I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of theeG4675: norG2228 againG3825 the headG2776 to the feetG4228, I haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of youG5216.
NayG235, muchG4183 moreG3123 those membersG3196 of the bodyG4983, which seemG1380 to beG5225 more feebleG772, areG2076 necessaryG316:
AndG2532 thoseG3739 members of the bodyG4983, which we thinkG1380 to beG1511 less honourableG820, upon theseG5125 we bestowG4060 more abundantG4055 honourG5092; andG2532 ourG2257 uncomelyG809 parts haveG2192 more abundantG4055 comelinessG2157. {bestow: or, put on}
ForG1161 ourG2257 comelyG2158 parts haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532: butG235 GodG2316 hath temperedG4786 the bodyG4983 togetherG4786, having givenG1325 more abundantG4055 honourG5092 to that part which lackedG5302:
ThatG3363 there should beG5600 noG3363 schismG4978 inG1722 the bodyG4983; butG235 that the membersG3196 should haveG3309 the sameG846 careG3309 one forG5228 anotherG240. {schism: or, division}
AndG2532 whetherG1535 oneG1520 memberG3196 sufferG3958, allG3956 the membersG3196 suffer with itG4841; orG1535 oneG1520 memberG3196 be honouredG1392, allG3956 the membersG3196 rejoice with itG4796.
NowG1161 yeG5210 areG2075 the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547, andG2532 membersG3196 inG1537 particularG3313.
AndG2532+G3739 GodG2316 hath setG5087 someG3303 inG1722 the churchG1577, firstG4412 apostlesG652, secondarilyG1208 prophetsG4396, thirdlyG5154 teachersG1320, after thatG1899 miraclesG1411, thenG1534 giftsG5486 of healingsG2386, helpsG484, governmentsG2941, diversitiesG1085 of tonguesG1100. {diversities: or, kinds}
Are allG3361+G3956 apostlesG652? are allG3361+G3956 prophetsG4396? are allG3361+G3956 teachersG1320? are allG3361+G3956 workers of miraclesG1411? {workers…: or, powers?}
HaveG3361+G2192 allG3956 the giftsG5486 of healingG2386? do allG3956 speakG3361+G2980 with tonguesG1100? doG3361 allG3956 interpretG1329?
ButG1161 covet earnestlyG2206 the bestG2909 giftsG5486: andG2532 yetG2089 shew IG1166 unto youG5213 a moreG2596 excellentG5236 wayG3598.
Forasmuch then asG3767 ChristG5547 hath sufferedG3958 forG5228 usG2257 in the fleshG4561, armG3695 yourselvesG5210 likewiseG2532 with the sameG846 mindG1771: forG3754 he that hath sufferedG3958 inG1722 the fleshG4561 hath ceasedG3973 from sinG266;
ThatG1519 heG980 no longerG3371 should liveG980 the restG1954 of his timeG5550 inG1722 the fleshG4561 to the lustsG1939 of menG444, butG235 to the willG2307 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 the timeG5550 pastG3928 of our lifeG979 may sufficeG713 usG2254 to have wroughtG2716 the willG2307 of the GentilesG1484, when we walkedG4198 inG1722 lasciviousnessG766, lustsG1939, excess of wineG3632, revellingsG2970, banquetingsG4224, andG2532 abominableG111 idolatriesG1495:
WhereinG1722+G3739 they think it strangeG3579 that yeG5216 runG4936 notG3361 with them toG1519 the sameG846 excessG401 of riotG810, speaking evil ofG987 you:
WhoG3739 shall giveG591 accountG3056 to him that isG2192 readyG2093 to judgeG2919 the quickG2198 andG2532 the deadG3498.
ForG1063 forG1519 this causeG5124 was the gospel preachedG2097 alsoG2532 to them that are deadG3498, thatG2443 they might be judgedG2919+G3303 according toG2596 menG444 in the fleshG4561, butG1161 liveG2198 according toG2596 GodG2316 in the spiritG4151.
ButG1161 the endG5056 of all thingsG3956 is at handG1448: be yeG4993 thereforeG3767 soberG4993, andG2532 watchG3525 untoG1519 prayerG4335.
AndG1161 aboveG4253 all thingsG3956 haveG2192 ferventG1618 charityG26 amongG1519 yourselvesG1438: forG3754 charityG26 shall coverG2572 the multitudeG4128 of sinsG266. {shall: or, will}
Use hospitalityG5382 one to anotherG1519+G240 withoutG427 grudgingG1112.
AsG2531 every manG1538 hath receivedG2983 the giftG5486, even so ministerG1247 the sameG846 one to anotherG1519+G1438, asG5613 goodG2570 stewardsG3623 of the manifoldG4164 graceG5485 of GodG2316.
If any manG1536 speakG2980, let him speak asG5613 the oraclesG3051 of GodG2316; if any manG1536 ministerG1247, let him do it asG5613 ofG1537 the abilityG2479 whichG3739 GodG2316 givethG5524: thatG2443 GodG2316 inG1722 all thingsG3956 may be glorifiedG1392 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to whomG3739 beG2076 praiseG1391 andG2532 dominionG2904 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
BelovedG27, think itG3579 notG3361 strangeG3579 concerning theG5213 fiery trialG4451 whichG1722 isG1096 toG4314 tryG3986 youG5213, asG5613 though some strange thingG3581 happenedG4819 unto youG5213:
ButG235 rejoiceG5463, inasmuch asG2526 ye are partakersG2841 of Christ'sG5547 sufferingsG3804; thatG2443, whenG1722 hisG846 gloryG1391 shall be revealedG602, ye may be gladG5463 alsoG2532 with exceeding joyG21.
IfG1487 ye be reproachedG3679 forG1722 the nameG3686 of ChristG5547, happyG3107 are ye; forG3754 the spiritG4151 of gloryG1391 andG2532 of GodG2316 restethG373 uponG1909 youG5209: onG2596+G3303 their partG846 he is evil spoken ofG987, butG1161 onG2596 your partG5209 he is glorifiedG1392.
ButG1063 letG3958 noneG3361+G5100 of youG5216 sufferG3958 asG5613 a murdererG5406, orG2228 as a thiefG2812, orG2228 as an evildoerG2555, orG2228 asG5613 a busybody in other men's mattersG244.
YetG1161 ifG1487 any man suffer asG5613 a ChristianG5546, let himG153 notG3361 be ashamedG153; butG1161 let him glorifyG1392 GodG2316 onG1722 thisG5129 behalfG3313.
ForG3754 the timeG2540 is come that judgmentG2917 must beginG756 atG575 the houseG3624 of GodG2316: andG1161 ifG1487 it firstG4412 begin atG575 usG2257, whatG5101 shall the endG5056 be of them that obey notG544 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316?
AndG2532 ifG1487 the righteousG1342 scarcelyG3433 be savedG4982, whereG4226 shallG5316 the ungodlyG765 andG2532 the sinnerG268 appearG5316?
WhereforeG5620+G2532 letG3908 them that sufferG3958 according toG2596 the willG2307 of GodG2316 commit the keepingG3908 of theirG1438 soulsG5590 to him inG1722 well doingG16, asG5613 unto a faithfulG4103 CreatorG2939.
IG1473 thereforeG3767, the prisonerG1198 ofG1722 the LordG2962, beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye walkG4043 worthyG516 of the vocationG2821 wherewithG3739 ye are calledG2564, {of the Lord: or, in the Lord}
WithG3326 allG3956 lowlinessG5012 andG2532 meeknessG4236, withG3326 longsufferingG3115, forbearingG430 one anotherG240 inG1722 loveG26;
EndeavouringG4704 to keepG5083 the unityG1775 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 the bondG4886 of peaceG1515.
There is oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG2532 oneG1520 SpiritG4151, even asG2531+G2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG3391 hopeG1680 of yourG5216 callingG2821;
OneG1520 LordG2962, oneG1520 faithG4102, oneG3391 baptismG908,
OneG1520 GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of allG3956, whoG3588 is aboveG1909 allG3956, andG2532 throughG1223 allG3956, andG2532 inG1722 youG5213 allG3956.
ButG1161 unto everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257 is givenG1325 graceG5485 according toG2596 the measureG3358 of the giftG1431 of ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, When he ascendedG305 upG1519 on highG5311, he led captivityG162 captiveG161, andG2532 gaveG1325 giftsG1390 unto menG444. {captivity…: or, a multitude of captives}
(NowG1161 that he ascendedG305, whatG5101 is itG2076 butG1508 thatG3754 heG2597 alsoG2532 descendedG2597 firstG4412 intoG1519 the lowerG2737 partsG3313 of the earthG1093?
HeG846 that descendedG2597 isG2076 the same alsoG2532 that ascended upG305 far aboveG5231 allG3956 heavensG3772, thatG2443 he might fillG4137 all thingsG3956.) {fill: or, fulfil}
AndG2532 heG846 gaveG1325 someG3303, apostlesG652; andG1161 some, prophetsG4396; andG1161 some, evangelistsG2099; andG1161 some, pastorsG4166 andG2532 teachersG1320;
ForG4314 the perfectingG2677 of the saintsG40, forG1519 the workG2041 of the ministryG1248, forG1519 the edifyingG3619 of the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547:
TillG3360 we allG3956 comeG2658 inG1519 the unityG1775 of the faithG4102, andG2532 of the knowledgeG1922 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, untoG1519 a perfectG5046 manG435, untoG1519 the measureG3358 of the statureG2244 of the fulnessG4138 of ChristG5547: {in: or, into} {stature: or, age}
ThatG2443 we henceforth beG5600 no moreG3371 childrenG3516, tossed to and froG2831, andG2532 carried about withG4064 everyG3956 windG417 of doctrineG1319, byG1722 the sleightG2940 of menG444, and cunning craftinessG1722+G3834, wherebyG4314 they lie in waitG3180 to deceiveG4106;
ButG1161 speaking the truthG226 inG1722 loveG26, may grow upG837 intoG1519 himG846 in all thingsG3956, whichG3739 isG2076 the headG2776, even ChristG5547: {speaking…: or, being sincere}
FromG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 bodyG4983 fitly joined togetherG4883 andG2532 compactedG4822 byG1223 that which everyG3956 jointG860 suppliethG2024, accordingG2596 to the effectual workingG1753 inG1722 the measureG3358 of everyG1538 partG1520+G3313, makethG4160 increaseG838 of the bodyG4983 untoG1519 the edifyingG3619 of itselfG1438 inG1722 loveG26.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
Having the understandingG1271 darkenedG4654, beingG5607 alienatedG526 from the lifeG2222 of GodG2316 throughG1223 the ignoranceG52 that isG5607 inG1722 themG846, becauseG1223 of the blindnessG4457 of theirG846 heartG2588: {blindness: or, hardness}
WhoG3748 being past feelingG524 have givenG3860 themselvesG1438 overG3860 unto lasciviousnessG766, toG1519 workG2039 allG3956 uncleannessG167 withG1722 greedinessG4124.
ButG1161 yeG5210 haveG3129 notG3756 soG3779 learnedG3129 ChristG5547;
If so be thatG1489 ye have heardG191 himG846, andG2532 have been taughtG1321 byG1722 himG846, asG2531 the truthG225 isG2076 inG1722 JesusG2424:
That yeG5209 put offG659 concerningG2596 the formerG4387 conversationG391 the oldG3820 manG444, whichG3588 is corruptG5351 accordingG2596 to the deceitfulG539 lustsG1939;
AndG1161 be renewedG365 in the spiritG4151 of yourG5216 mindG3563;
AndG2532 that ye put onG1746 the newG2537 manG444, whichG3588 afterG2596 GodG2316 is createdG2936 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 trueG225 holinessG3742. {true…: or, holiness of truth}
WhereforeG1352 putting awayG659 lyingG5579, speakG2980 every manG1538 truthG225 withG3326 hisG846 neighbourG4139: forG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
Be ye angryG3710, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361: letG1931 notG3361 the sunG2246 go downG1931 uponG1909 yourG5216 wrathG3950:
NeitherG3383 giveG1325 placeG5117 to the devilG1228.
LetG2813 him that stoleG2813 stealG2813 no moreG3371: butG1161 ratherG3123 let him labourG2872, workingG2038 with his handsG5495 the thing which is goodG18, thatG2443 he may haveG2192 to giveG3330 to him that needethG5532+G2192. {to give: or, to distribute}
LetG4550 noG3361+G3956 corruptG4550 communicationG3056 proceedG1607 out ofG1537 yourG5216 mouthG4750, butG235 that whichG1536 is goodG18 toG4314 the useG5532 of edifyingG3619, thatG2443 it may ministerG1325 graceG5485 unto the hearersG191. {to…: or, to edify profitably}
AndG2532 grieveG3076 notG3361 the holyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, wherebyG1722+G3739 ye are sealedG4972 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
LetG142 allG3956 bitternessG4088, andG2532 wrathG2372, andG2532 angerG3709, andG2532 clamourG2906, andG2532 evil speakingG988, be put awayG142 fromG575 youG5216, withG4862 allG3956 maliceG2549:
AndG1161 beG1096 ye kindG5543 one to anotherG1519+G240, tenderheartedG2155, forgivingG5483 one anotherG1438, even asG2531+G2532 GodG2316 forG1722 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1722 hath forgivenG5483 youG5213.
It is reportedG191 commonlyG3654 that there is fornicationG4202 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 suchG5108 fornicationG4202 asG3748 isG3687 not so muchG3761 as namedG3687 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, thatG5620 oneG5100 should haveG2192 his father'sG3962 wifeG1135.
AndG2532 yeG5210 areG2075 puffed upG5448, andG2532 haveG3996 notG3780 ratherG3123 mournedG3996, thatG2443 he that hath doneG4160 thisG5124 deedG2041 might be taken awayG1808 fromG1537 amongG3319 youG5216.
ForG1063 IG1473 verilyG3303, asG5613 absentG548 in bodyG4983, butG1161 presentG3918 in spiritG4151, have judgedG2919 alreadyG2235, asG5613 though I were presentG3918, concerning him that hathG2716 soG3779 doneG2716 this deedG5124, {judged: or, determined}
InG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, when yeG5216 are gathered togetherG4863, andG2532 myG1699 spiritG4151, withG4862 the powerG1411 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
To deliverG3860 such an oneG5108 unto SatanG4567 forG1519 the destructionG3639 of the fleshG4561, thatG2443 the spiritG4151 may be savedG4982 inG1722 the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
YourG5216 gloryingG2745 is notG3756 goodG2570. Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 a littleG3398 leavenG2219 leavenethG2220 the wholeG3650 lumpG5445?
Purge outG1571 thereforeG3767 the oldG3820 leavenG2219, thatG2443 ye may beG5600 a newG3501 lumpG5445, asG2531 ye areG2075 unleavenedG106. ForG1063 evenG2532 ChristG5547 ourG2257 passoverG3957 is sacrificedG2380 forG5228 usG2257: {is sacrificed: or, is slain}
ThereforeG5620 let us keep the feastG1858, notG3361 withG1722 oldG3820 leavenG2219, neitherG3366 withG1722 the leavenG2219 of maliceG2549 andG2532 wickednessG4189; butG235 withG1722 the unleavenedG106 bread of sincerityG1505 andG2532 truthG225. {the feast: or, holyday}
I wroteG1125 unto youG5213 inG1722 an epistleG1992 notG3361 to companyG4874 with fornicatorsG4205:
YetG2532 notG3756 altogetherG3843 with the fornicatorsG4205 of thisG5127 worldG2889, orG2228 with the covetousG4123, orG2228 extortionersG727, orG2228 with idolatersG1496; forG1893 thenG686 must ye needsG3784 goG1831 out ofG1537 the worldG2889.
ButG1161 nowG3570 I have writtenG1125 unto youG5213 notG3361 to keep companyG4874, ifG1437 any manG5100 that is calledG3687 a brotherG80 beG2228 a fornicatorG4205, orG2228 covetousG4123, orG2228 an idolaterG1496, orG2228 a railerG3060, orG2228 a drunkardG3183, orG2228 an extortionerG727; with such an oneG5108 no notG3366 to eatG4906.
ForG1063 whatG5101 have IG3427 to do to judgeG2919 them alsoG2532 that are withoutG1854? doG2919 notG3780 yeG5210 judgeG2919 them that are withinG2080?
ButG1161 them that are withoutG1854 GodG2316 judgethG2919. ThereforeG2532 put awayG1808 fromG1537 among yourselvesG5216 thatG846 wicked personG4190.
Purge outG1571 thereforeG3767 the oldG3820 leavenG2219, thatG2443 ye may beG5600 a newG3501 lumpG5445, asG2531 ye areG2075 unleavenedG106. ForG1063 evenG2532 ChristG5547 ourG2257 passoverG3957 is sacrificedG2380 forG5228 usG2257: {is sacrificed: or, is slain}
ThereforeG5620 let us keep the feastG1858, notG3361 withG1722 oldG3820 leavenG2219, neitherG3366 withG1722 the leavenG2219 of maliceG2549 andG2532 wickednessG4189; butG235 withG1722 the unleavenedG106 bread of sincerityG1505 andG2532 truthG225. {the feast: or, holyday}
ForG1063 whatG5101 have IG3427 to do to judgeG2919 them alsoG2532 that are withoutG1854? doG2919 notG3780 yeG5210 judgeG2919 them that are withinG2080?
ButG1161 them that are withoutG1854 GodG2316 judgethG2919. ThereforeG2532 put awayG1808 fromG1537 among yourselvesG5216 thatG846 wicked personG4190.
AndG2532 the wallG5038 of the cityG4172 hadG2192 twelveG1427 foundationsG2310, andG2532 inG1722 themG846 the namesG3686 of the twelveG1427 apostlesG652 of the LambG721.
ObeyG3982 them that have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, andG2532 submit yourselvesG5226: forG1063 theyG846 watchG69 forG5228 yourG5216 soulsG5590, asG5613 they that must giveG591 accountG3056, thatG2443 they may doG4160 itG5124 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 notG3361 with griefG4727: forG1063 thatG5124 is unprofitableG255 for youG5213. {have…: or, guide}
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, He that enterethG1525 notG3361 byG1223 the doorG2374 intoG1519 the sheepfoldG4263+G833, butG235 climbeth upG305 some other wayG237, the sameG1565 isG2076 a thiefG2812 andG2532 a robberG3027.
ButG1161 he that entereth inG1525 byG1223 the doorG2374 isG2076 the shepherdG4166 of the sheepG4263.
To himG5129 the porterG2377 openethG455; andG2532 the sheepG4263 hearG191 hisG846 voiceG5456: andG2532 he callethG2564 his ownG2398 sheepG4263 byG2596 nameG3686, andG2532 leadethG1806 themG846 outG1806.
AndG2532 whenG3752 he putteth forthG1544 his ownG2398 sheepG4263, he goethG4198 beforeG1715 themG846, andG2532 the sheepG4263 followG190 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 hisG846 voiceG5456.
AndG1161 a strangerG245 will theyG190 notG3364 followG190, butG235 will fleeG5343 fromG575 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 notG3756 the voiceG5456 of strangersG245.
ThisG5026 parableG3942 spakeG2036 JesusG2424 unto themG846: butG1161 theyG1565 understoodG1097 notG3756 what thingsG5101 they wereG2258 whichG3739 he spakeG2980 unto themG846.
ThenG3767 saidG2036 JesusG2424 unto themG846 againG3825, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, IG1473 amG1510 the doorG2374 of the sheepG4263.
AllG3956 that everG3745 cameG2064 beforeG4253 meG1700 areG1526 thievesG2812 andG2532 robbersG3027: butG235 the sheepG4263 didG191 notG3756 hearG191 themG846.
IG1473 amG1510 the doorG2374: byG1223 meG1700 ifG1437 any manG5100 enter inG1525, he shall be savedG4982, andG2532 shall go inG1525 andG2532 outG1831, andG2532 findG2147 pastureG3542.
The thiefG2812 comethG2064 notG3756, butG1508 for toG2443 stealG2813, andG2532 to killG2380, andG2532 to destroyG622: IG1473 am comeG2064 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 lifeG2222, andG2532 that they might haveG2192 it more abundantlyG4053.
IG1473 amG1510 the goodG2570 shepherdG4166: the goodG2570 shepherdG4166 givethG5087 hisG846 lifeG5590 forG5228 the sheepG4263.
ButG1161 he that isG5607 an hirelingG3411, andG2532 notG3756 the shepherdG4166, whoseG3739 ownG2398 the sheepG4263 areG1526 notG3756, seethG2334 the wolfG3074 comingG2064, andG2532 leavethG863 the sheepG4263, andG2532 fleethG5343: andG2532 the wolfG3074 catchethG726 themG846, andG2532 scatterethG4650 the sheepG4263.
The hirelingG3411 fleethG5343, becauseG3754 he isG2076 an hirelingG3411, andG2532+G846 carethG3199 notG3756 forG4012 the sheepG4263.
IG1473 amG1510 the goodG2570 shepherdG4166, andG2532 knowG1097 myG1699 sheep, andG2532 am knownG1097 ofG5259 mineG1699.
AsG2531 the FatherG3962 knowethG1097 meG3165, even soG2504 knowG1097 IG2504 the FatherG3962: andG2532 I lay downG5087 myG3450 lifeG5590 forG5228 the sheepG4263.
AndG2532 otherG243 sheepG4263 I haveG2192, whichG3739 areG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG5026 foldG833: them alsoG2548 IG3165 mustG1163 bringG71, andG2532 they shall hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456; andG2532 there shall beG1096 oneG3391 foldG4167, and oneG1520 shepherdG4166.
ThereforeG5124+G1223 dothG25 my FatherG3962 loveG25 meG3165, becauseG3754 IG1473 lay downG5087 myG3450 lifeG5590, thatG2443 I might takeG2983 itG846 againG3825.
No manG3762 takethG142 itG846 fromG575 meG1700, butG235 IG1473 layG5087 itG846 downG5087 ofG575 myselfG1683. I haveG2192 powerG1849 to layG5087 itG846 downG5087, andG2532 I haveG2192 powerG1849 to takeG2983 itG846 againG3825. ThisG5026 commandmentG1785 have I receivedG2983 ofG3844 myG3450 FatherG3962.
There wasG1096 a divisionG4978 thereforeG3767 againG3825 amongG1722 the JewsG2453 forG1223 theseG5128 sayingsG3056.
AndG1161 manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 saidG3004, He hathG2192 a devilG1140, andG2532 is madG3105; whyG5101 hear yeG191 himG846?
OthersG243 saidG3004, TheseG5023 areG2076 notG3756 the wordsG4487 of him that hath a devilG1139. CanG3361+G1410 a devilG1140 openG455 the eyesG3788 of the blindG5185?
AndG1161 it wasG1096 atG1722 JerusalemG2414 the feast of the dedicationG1456, andG2532 it wasG2258 winterG5494.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 walkedG4043 inG1722 the templeG2411 inG1722 Solomon'sG4672 porchG4745.
ThenG3767 cameG2944 the JewsG2453 round aboutG2944 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, How longG2193+G4219 dost thou makeG142 usG2257 to doubtG5590? IfG1487 thouG4771 beG1488 the ChristG5547, tellG2036 usG2254 plainlyG3954. {make…: or, hold us in suspense}
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, I toldG2036 youG5213, andG2532 ye believedG4100 notG3756: the worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160 inG1722 myG3450 Father'sG3962 nameG3686, theyG5023 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1700.
ButG235 yeG5210 believeG4100 notG3756, becauseG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 ofG1537 myG1699 sheepG4263, asG2531 I saidG2036 unto youG5213.
MyG1699 sheepG4263 hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456, and IG2504 knowG1097 themG846, andG2532 they followG190 meG3427:
And IG2504 giveG1325 unto themG846 eternalG166 lifeG2222; andG2532 they shallG622 neverG3364+G1519+G165 perishG622, neitherG2532+G3756 shallG726 anyG5100 man pluckG726 themG846 out ofG1537 myG3450 handG5495.
MyG3450 FatherG3962, whichG3739 gaveG1325 them meG3427, isG2076 greater thanG3187 allG3956; andG2532 noG3762 man is ableG1410 to pluckG726 them out ofG1537 myG3450 Father'sG3962 handG5495.
IG1473 andG2532 my FatherG3962 areG2070 oneG1520.
ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 took upG941 stonesG3037 againG3825 toG2443 stoneG3034 himG846.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, ManyG4183 goodG2570 worksG2041 have I shewedG1166 youG5213 fromG1537 myG3450 FatherG3962; forG1223 whichG4169 of thoseG846 worksG2041 do ye stoneG3034 meG3165?
The JewsG2453 answeredG611 himG846, sayingG3004, ForG4012 a goodG2570 workG2041 we stoneG3034 theeG4571 notG3756; butG235 forG4012 blasphemyG988; andG2532 becauseG3754 that thouG4771, beingG5607 a manG444, makestG4160 thyselfG4572 GodG2316.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, Is itG2076 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1722 yourG5216 lawG3551, IG1473 saidG2036, Ye areG2075 godsG2316?
IfG1487 he calledG2036 themG1565 godsG2316, untoG4314 whomG3739 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 cameG1096, andG2532 the scriptureG1124 cannotG3756+G1410 be brokenG3089;
SayG3004 yeG5210 of him, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 hath sanctifiedG37, andG2532 sentG649 intoG1519 the worldG2889+G3754, Thou blasphemestG987; becauseG3754 I saidG2036, I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316?
IfG1487 I doG4160 notG3756 the worksG2041 of myG3450 FatherG3962, believeG4100 meG3427 notG3361.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I doG4160, thoughG2579 ye believeG4100 notG3361 meG1698, believeG4100 the worksG2041: thatG2443 ye may knowG1097, andG2532 believeG4100, thatG3754 the FatherG3962 is inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846.
ThereforeG3767 they soughtG2212 againG3825 to takeG4084 himG846: butG2532 he escapedG1831 out ofG1537 theirG846 handG5495,
AndG2532 went awayG565 againG3825 beyondG4008 JordanG2446 intoG1519 the placeG5117 whereG3699 JohnG2491 at firstG4412 baptizedG907+G2258; andG2532 thereG1563 he abodeG3306.
AndG2532 manyG4183 resortedG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004+G3754, JohnG2491 didG4160 noG3303+G3762 miracleG4592: butG1161 all thingsG3956 thatG3745 JohnG2491 spakeG2036 ofG4012 this manG5127 wereG2258 trueG227.
AndG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846 thereG1563.
AndG2532 otherG243 sheepG4263 I haveG2192, whichG3739 areG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG5026 foldG833: them alsoG2548 IG3165 mustG1163 bringG71, andG2532 they shall hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456; andG2532 there shall beG1096 oneG3391 foldG4167, and oneG1520 shepherdG4166.
AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, WhoG5101 thenG686 isG2076 that faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 stewardG3623, whomG3739 his lordG2962 shall make rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG2322, to giveG1325 them their portion of meatG4620 inG1722 due seasonG2540?
BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
Of a truthG230 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 he will make himG846 rulerG2525 overG1909 allG3956 that heG846 hathG5224.
