PaulG3972, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 byG2596 the commandmentG2003 of GodG2316 ourG2257 SaviourG4990, andG2532 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whichG3588 is ourG2257 hopeG1680;
Unto TimothyG5095, my ownG1103 sonG5043 inG1722 the faithG4102: GraceG5485, mercyG1656, and peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962 andG2532 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
AsG2531 I besoughtG3870 theeG4571 to abide stillG4357 atG1722 EphesusG2181, when I wentG4198 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, thatG2443 thou mightest chargeG3853 someG5100 that they teachG2085 noG3361 other doctrineG2085,
NeitherG3366 give heedG4337 to fablesG3454 andG2532 endlessG562 genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 ministerG3930 questionsG2214, ratherG3123 thanG2228 godlyG2316 edifyingG3620 whichG3588 is inG1722 faithG4102: so do.
NowG1161 the endG5056 of the commandmentG3852 isG2076 charityG26 out ofG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588, andG2532 of a goodG18 conscienceG4893, andG2532 of faithG4102 unfeignedG505:
From whichG3739 someG5100 having swervedG795 have turned asideG1624 untoG1519 vain janglingG3150; {having…: or, not aiming at}
DesiringG2309 to beG1511 teachers of the lawG3547+G3361; understandingG3539 neitherG3383 whatG3739 they sayG3004, norG3383 whereofG4012+G5101 they affirmG1226.
ButG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the lawG3551 is goodG2570, ifG1437 a manG5100 useG5530 itG846 lawfullyG3545;
KnowingG1492 thisG5124, thatG3754 the lawG3551 isG2749 notG3756 madeG2749 for a righteous manG1342, butG1161 for the lawlessG459 andG2532 disobedientG506, for the ungodlyG765 andG2532 for sinnersG268, for unholyG462 andG2532 profaneG952, for murderers of fathersG3964 andG2532 murderers of mothersG3389, for manslayersG409,
For whoremongersG4205, for them that defile themselves with mankindG733, for menstealersG405, for liarsG5583, for perjured personsG1965, andG2532 if there be anyG1536 other thingG2087 that is contraryG480 to soundG5198 doctrineG1319;
AccordingG2596 to the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of the blessedG3107 GodG2316, whichG3739 was committed toG4100 myG1473 trustG4100.
AndG2532 I thankG2192+G5485 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962, whoG3588 hath enabledG1743 meG3165, forG3754 that he countedG2233 meG3165 faithfulG4103, putting meG5087 intoG1519 the ministryG1248;
WhoG3588 wasG5607 beforeG4386 a blasphemerG989, andG2532 a persecutorG1376, andG2532 injuriousG5197: butG235 I obtained mercyG1653, becauseG3754 I didG4160 it ignorantlyG50 inG1722 unbeliefG570.
AndG1161 the graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 was exceeding abundantG5250 withG3326 faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26 whichG3588 is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
This is a faithfulG4103 sayingG3056, andG2532 worthyG514 of allG3956 acceptationG594, thatG3754 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 cameG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889 to saveG4982 sinnersG268; of whomG3739 IG1473 amG1510 chiefG4413.
HowbeitG235 for thisG5124 causeG1223 I obtained mercyG1653, thatG2443 inG1722 meG1698 firstG4413 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 might shew forthG1731 allG3956 longsufferingG3115, forG4314 a patternG5296 to them which should hereafterG3195 believeG4100 onG1909 himG846 toG1519 lifeG2222 everlastingG166.
NowG1161 unto the KingG935 eternalG165, immortalG862, invisibleG517, the onlyG3441 wiseG4680 GodG2316, be honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
ThisG5026 chargeG3852 I commitG3908 unto theeG4671, sonG5043 TimothyG5095, according toG2596 the propheciesG4394 which went beforeG4254 onG1909 theeG4571, thatG2443 thou byG1722 themG846 mightest warG4754 a goodG2570 warfareG4752;
HoldingG2192 faithG4102, andG2532 a goodG18 conscienceG4893; whichG3739 someG5100 having put awayG683 concerningG4012 faithG4102 have made shipwreckG3489:
Of whomG3739 isG2076 HymenaeusG5211 andG2532 AlexanderG223; whomG3739 I have deliveredG3860 unto SatanG4567, thatG2443 they may learnG3811 notG3361 to blasphemeG987.
When I callG2983 to remembranceG5280 the unfeignedG505 faithG4102 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3748 dweltG1774 firstG4412 inG1722 thyG4675 grandmotherG3125 LoisG3090, andG2532 thyG4675 motherG3384 EuniceG2131; andG1161 I am persuadedG3982 thatG3754 inG1722 theeG4671 alsoG2532.
When I callG2983 to remembranceG5280 the unfeignedG505 faithG4102 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3748 dweltG1774 firstG4412 inG1722 thyG4675 grandmotherG3125 LoisG3090, andG2532 thyG4675 motherG3384 EuniceG2131; andG1161 I am persuadedG3982 thatG3754 inG1722 theeG4671 alsoG2532.
ButG1161 continueG3306 thouG4771 inG1722 the things whichG3739 thou hast learnedG3129 andG2532 hast been assured ofG4104, knowingG1492 ofG3844 whomG5101 thou hast learnedG3129 them;
AndG2532 thatG3754 fromG575 a childG1025 thou hast knownG1492 the holyG2413 scripturesG1121, whichG3588 are ableG1410 to makeG4679 theeG4571 wiseG4679 untoG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1223 faithG4102 whichG3588 is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
ThenG1161 came heG2658 toG1519 DerbeG1191 andG2532 LystraG3082: andG2532, beholdG2400, a certainG5100 discipleG3101 wasG2258 thereG1563, namedG3686 TimotheusG5095, the sonG5207 of a certainG5100 womanG1135, which was a JewessG2453, and believedG4103; butG1161 his fatherG3962 was a GreekG1672:
WhichG3739 was well reportedG3140 of byG5259 the brethrenG80 that were atG1722 LystraG3082 andG2532 IconiumG2430.
SoG1161 he sentG649 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109 twoG1417 of them that ministeredG1247 unto himG846, TimotheusG5095 andG2532 ErastusG2037; but he himselfG846 stayedG1907 inG1519 AsiaG773 for a seasonG5550.
AndG1161 thenG5119 immediatelyG2112 the brethrenG80 sent awayG1821 PaulG3972 to goG4198 as it wereG5613 toG1909 the seaG2281: butG1161+G5037 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 abodeG5278 thereG1563 stillG5278.
AndG1161 they that conductedG2525 PaulG3972 broughtG71 himG846 untoG2193 AthensG116: andG2532 receivingG2983 a commandmentG1785 untoG4314 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 for toG2443 comeG2064 toG4314 himG846 with all speedG5613+G5033, they departedG1826.
WhereforeG1352 when we couldG4722 no longerG3371 forbearG4722, we thought it goodG2106 to be leftG2641 atG1722 AthensG116 aloneG3441;
AndG2532 sentG3992 TimotheusG5095, ourG2257 brotherG80, andG2532 ministerG1249 of GodG2316, andG2532 ourG2257 fellowlabourerG4904 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, toG1519 establishG4741 youG5209, andG2532 to comfortG3870 youG5209 concerningG4012 yourG5216 faithG4102:
AndG1161 whenG5613+G5037 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 were comeG2718 fromG575 MacedoniaG3109, PaulG3972 was pressedG4912 in the spiritG4151, and testifiedG1263 to the JewsG2453 that JesusG2424 was ChristG5547. {was Christ: or, is the Christ}
PaulG3972, andG2532 SilvanusG4610, andG2532 TimotheusG5095, unto the churchG1577 of the ThessaloniansG2331 inG1722 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962 andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
SoG1161 he sentG649 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109 twoG1417 of them that ministeredG1247 unto himG846, TimotheusG5095 andG2532 ErastusG2037; but he himselfG846 stayedG1907 inG1519 AsiaG773 for a seasonG5550.
TimotheusG5095 myG3450 workfellowG4904, andG2532 LuciusG3066, andG2532 JasonG2394, andG2532 SosipaterG4989, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, saluteG782 youG5209.
AndG2532 having thisG5124 confidenceG3982, I knowG1492 thatG3754 I shall abideG3306 andG2532 continueG4839 with youG5213 allG3956 forG1519 yourG5216 furtheranceG4297 andG2532 joyG5479 of faithG4102;
IG1473 chargeG1263 thee thereforeG3767 beforeG1799 GodG2316, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 shallG3195 judgeG2919 the quickG2198 andG2532 the deadG3498 atG2596 hisG846 appearingG2015 andG2532 hisG846 kingdomG932;
PreachG2784 the wordG3056; be instantG2186 in seasonG2122, out of seasonG171; reproveG1651, rebukeG2008, exhortG3870 withG1722 allG3956 longsufferingG3115 andG2532 doctrineG1322.
ForG1063 the timeG2540 will comeG2071 whenG3753 they willG430 notG3756 endureG430 soundG5198 doctrineG1319; butG235 afterG2596 their ownG2398 lustsG1939 shall they heapG2002 to themselvesG1438 teachersG1320, having itchingG2833 earsG189;
AndG2532 they shall turn awayG3303+G654 their earsG189 fromG575 the truthG225, andG1161 shall be turnedG1624 untoG1909 fablesG3454.
ButG1161 watchG3525 thouG4771 inG1722 all thingsG3956, endure afflictionsG2553, doG4160 the workG2041 of an evangelistG2099, make full proofG4135 of thyG4675 ministryG1248. {make…: or, fulfil}
ForG1063 IG1473 amG4689 nowG2235 ready to be offeredG4689, andG2532 the timeG2540 of myG1699 departureG359 is at handG2186.
I have foughtG75 a goodG2570 fightG73, I have finishedG5055 my courseG1408, I have keptG5083 the faithG4102:
HenceforthG3063 there is laid upG606 for meG3427 a crownG4735 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3739 the LordG2962, the righteousG1342 judgeG2923, shall giveG591 meG3427 atG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250: andG1161 notG3756 to meG1698 onlyG3440, butG235 unto all themG3956 alsoG2532 that loveG25 hisG846 appearingG2015.
Do thy diligenceG4704 to comeG2064 shortlyG5030 untoG4314 meG3165:
ForG1063 DemasG1214 hath forsakenG1459 meG3165, having lovedG25 this presentG3568 worldG165, andG2532 is departedG4198 untoG1519 ThessalonicaG2332; CrescensG2913 toG1519 GalatiaG1053, TitusG5103 untoG1519 DalmatiaG1149.
OnlyG3441 LukeG3065 isG2076 withG3326 meG1700. TakeG353 MarkG3138, and bring himG71 withG3326 theeG4572: forG1063 he isG2076 profitableG2173 to meG3427 forG1519 the ministryG1248.
AndG1161 TychicusG5190 have I sentG649 toG1519 EphesusG2181.
The clokeG5341 thatG3739 I leftG620 atG1722 TroasG5174 withG3844 CarpusG2591, when thou comestG2064, bringG5342 with thee, andG2532 the booksG975, but especiallyG3122 the parchmentsG3200.
AlexanderG223 the coppersmithG5471 didG1731 meG3427 muchG4183 evilG2556: the LordG2962 rewardG591 himG846 according toG2596 hisG846 worksG2041:
Of whomG3739 beG5442 thouG4771 wareG5442 alsoG2532; forG1063 he hathG436 greatlyG3029 withstoodG436 ourG2251 wordsG3056. {our words: or, our preachings}
AtG1722 myG3450 firstG4413 answerG627 no manG3762 stoodG4836 with meG3427, butG235 allG3956 men forsookG1459 meG3165: I pray God that it mayG3049 notG3361 be laidG3049 to their chargeG846.
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.
AndG2532 the LordG2962 shall deliverG4506 meG3165 fromG575 everyG3956 evilG4190 workG2041, andG2532 will preserveG4982 me untoG1519 hisG846 heavenlyG2032 kingdomG932: to whomG3739 be gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
SaluteG782 PriscaG4251 andG2532 AquilaG207, andG2532 the householdG3624 of OnesiphorusG3683.
ErastusG2037 abodeG3306 atG1722 CorinthG2882: butG1161 TrophimusG5161 have I leftG620 atG1722 MiletumG3399 sickG770.
Do thy diligenceG4704 to comeG2064 beforeG4253 winterG5494. EubulusG2103 greetethG782 theeG4571, andG2532 PudensG4227, andG2532 LinusG3044, andG2532 ClaudiaG2803, andG2532 allG3956 the brethrenG80.
The LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 thyG4675 spiritG4151. GraceG5485 be withG3326 youG5216. AmenG281. {The second epistle unto Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second time.}
FightG75 the goodG2570 fightG73 of faithG4102, lay hold onG1949 eternalG166 lifeG2222, whereuntoG1519+G3739 thou artG2564 alsoG2532 calledG2564, andG2532 hast professedG3670 a goodG2570 professionG3671 beforeG1799 manyG4183 witnessesG3144.
WhereforeG1223+G3739+G156 I putG363 theeG4571 in remembranceG363 that thou stir upG329 the giftG5486 of GodG2316, whichG3739 isG2076 inG1722 theeG4671 byG1223 the putting onG1936 of myG3450 handsG5495.
NeglectG272 notG3361 the giftG5486 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3739 was givenG1325 theeG4671 byG1223 prophecyG4394, withG3326 the laying onG1936 of the handsG5495 of the presbyteryG4244.
ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 have I sentG3992 unto youG5213 TimotheusG5095, whoG3739 isG2076 myG3450 belovedG27 sonG5043, andG2532 faithfulG4103 inG1722 the LordG2962, whoG3739 shall bringG363 youG5209 into remembranceG363 of myG3450 waysG3598 whichG3588 be inG1722 ChristG5547, asG2531 I teachG1321 every whereG3837 inG1722 everyG3956 churchG1577.
AndG2532 sentG3992 TimotheusG5095, ourG2257 brotherG80, andG2532 ministerG1249 of GodG2316, andG2532 ourG2257 fellowlabourerG4904 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, toG1519 establishG4741 youG5209, andG2532 to comfortG3870 youG5209 concerningG4012 yourG5216 faithG4102:
NowG1161 ifG1437 TimotheusG5095 comeG2064, seeG991 thatG2443 he may beG1096 withG4314 youG5209 without fearG870: forG1063 he workethG2038 the workG2041 of the LordG2962, asG5613 IG1473 alsoG2532 do.
ForG1063 I haveG2192 no manG3762 likemindedG2473, whoG3748 will naturallyG1104 careG3309 for yourG5216 stateG4012. {likeminded: or, so dear unto me}
To TitusG5103, mine ownG1103 sonG5043 afterG2596 the commonG2839 faithG4102: GraceG5485, mercyG1656, and peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 SaviourG4990.
WhetherG1535 any do enquire ofG5228 TitusG5103, he is myG1699 partnerG2844 andG2532 fellowhelperG4904 concerningG1519 youG5209: orG1535 ourG2257 brethrenG80 be enquired of, they are the messengersG652 of the churchesG1577, and the gloryG1391 of ChristG5547.
ThenG1899 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 afterG1223 I went upG305 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 BarnabasG921, and tookG4838 TitusG5103 with meG4838 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 I went upG305 byG2596 revelationG602, andG2532 communicatedG394 unto themG846 that gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachG2784 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, butG1161 privatelyG2596+G2398 to them which were of reputationG1380, lest by any meansG3381+G4458 I should runG5143, orG2228 had runG5143, inG1519 vainG2756. {privately: or, severally}
ButG235 neitherG3761 TitusG5103, whoG3588 was withG4862 meG1698, beingG5607 a GreekG1672, was compelledG315 to be circumcisedG4059:
AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in privilyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:
To whomG3739 we gave placeG1502 by subjectionG5292, no, notG3761 forG4314 an hourG5610; thatG2443 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098 might continueG1265 withG4314 youG5209.
FurthermoreG1161, when I cameG2064 toG1519 TroasG5174 toG1519 preach Christ'sG5547 gospelG2098, andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455 unto meG3427 ofG1722 the LordG2962,
I hadG2192 noG3756 restG425 in myG3450 spiritG4151, because IG3165 foundG2147 notG3361 TitusG5103 myG3450 brotherG80: butG235 taking my leaveG657 of themG846, I went from thenceG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109.
ForG1063+G2532, when weG2257 were comeG2064 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, ourG2257 fleshG4561 hadG2192 noG3762 restG425, butG235 we were troubledG2346 onG1722 every sideG3956; withoutG1855 were fightingsG3163, withinG2081 were fearsG5401.
NeverthelessG235 GodG2316, that comfortethG3870 those that are cast downG5011, comfortedG3870 usG2248 byG1722 the comingG3952 of TitusG5103;
AndG1161 notG3756 byG1722 hisG846 comingG3952 onlyG3440, butG235+G2532 byG1722 the consolationG3874 wherewithG3739 he was comfortedG3870 inG1909 youG5213, when he toldG312 usG2254 yourG5216 earnest desireG1972, yourG5216 mourningG3602, yourG5216 fervent mindG2205 towardG5228 meG1700; soG5620 that IG3165 rejoicedG5463 the moreG3123.
ForG3754 thoughG1499 I madeG3076 youG5209 sorryG3076 withG1722 a letterG1992, I doG3338 notG3756 repentG3338, thoughG1499 I did repentG3338: forG1063 I perceiveG991 thatG3754 the sameG1565 epistleG1992 hath madeG3076 youG5209 sorryG3076, though it were butG1499 forG4314 a seasonG5610.
NowG3568 I rejoiceG5463, notG3756 thatG3754 ye were made sorryG3076, butG235 thatG3754 ye sorrowedG3076 toG1519 repentanceG3341: forG1063 ye were made sorryG3076 afterG2596 a godly mannerG2316, thatG2443 ye might receive damageG2210 byG1537 usG2257 inG1722 nothingG3367. {after…: or, according to God}
ForG1063 godlyG2316+G2596 sorrowG3077 workethG2716 repentanceG3341 toG1519 salvationG4991 not to be repented ofG278: butG1161 the sorrowG3077 of the worldG2889 workethG2716 deathG2288.
ForG1063 beholdG2400 thisG5124 selfsame thingG846, thatG5209 ye sorrowedG3076 afterG2596 a godly sortG2316, whatG4214 carefulnessG4710 it wroughtG2716 in youG5213, yeaG235, what clearing of yourselvesG627, yeaG235, what indignationG24, yeaG235, what fearG5401, yeaG235, what vehement desireG1972, yeaG235, what zealG2205, yeaG235, what revengeG1557! InG1722 allG3956 things ye have approvedG4921 yourselvesG1438 to beG1511 clearG53 inG1722 this matterG4229.
WhereforeG686, thoughG1499 I wroteG1125 unto youG5213, I did it notG3756 for his causeG1752 that had done the wrongG91, norG3761 for his causeG1752 that suffered wrongG91, butG235 thatG1752 ourG2257 careG4710 forG5228 youG5216 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316 might appearG5319 untoG4314 youG5209.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 we were comfortedG3870 inG1909 yourG5216 comfortG3874: yea, andG1161 exceedinglyG4056 the moreG3123 joyed weG5463 forG1909 the joyG5479 of TitusG5103, becauseG3754 hisG846 spiritG4151 was refreshedG373 byG575 youG5216 allG3956.
ForG3754 if I have boastedG2744 any thingG1536 to himG846 ofG5228 youG5216, I amG2617 notG3756 ashamedG2617; butG235 asG5613 we spakeG2980 all thingsG3956 to youG5213 inG1722 truthG225, evenG2532 soG3779 ourG2257 boastingG2746, whichG3588 I made beforeG1909 TitusG5103, is foundG1096 a truthG225.
AndG2532 hisG846 inward affectionG4698 isG2076 more abundantG4056 towardG1519 youG5209, whilst he rememberethG363 the obedienceG5218 of youG5216 allG3956, howG5613 withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156 ye receivedG1209 himG846. {inward…: Gr. bowels}
I rejoiceG5463 therefore thatG3754 I have confidenceG2292 inG1722 youG5213 inG1722 allG3956 things.
ButG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, whichG3588 putG1325 the sameG846 earnest careG4710 intoG1722 the heartG2588 of TitusG5103 forG5228 youG5216.
ForG3754 indeedG3303 he acceptedG1209 the exhortationG3874; butG1161 beingG5225 more forwardG4707, of his own accordG830 he wentG1831 untoG4314 youG5209.
AndG1161 we have sentG4842 withG3326 himG846 the brotherG80, whoseG3739 praiseG1868 is inG1722 the gospelG2098 throughoutG1223 allG3956 the churchesG1577;
AndG1161 notG3756 that onlyG3440, butG235 who wasG5500 alsoG2532 chosenG5500 ofG5259 the churchesG1577 to travelG4898 with usG2257 withG4862 thisG5026 graceG5485, whichG3588 is administeredG1247 byG5259 usG2257 toG4314 the gloryG1391 of the sameG846 LordG2962, andG2532 declaration of yourG5216 ready mindG4288: {grace: or, gift}
AvoidingG4724 thisG5124, that noG3361 manG5100 should blameG3469 usG2248 inG1722 thisG5026 abundanceG100 whichG3588 is administeredG1247 byG5259 usG2257:
ProvidingG4306 for honest thingsG2570, notG3756 onlyG3440 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, butG235 alsoG2532 in the sightG1799 of menG444.
AndG1161 we have sentG4842 with themG846 ourG2257 brotherG80, whomG3739 we haveG1381 oftentimesG4178 provedG1381+G5607 diligentG4705 inG1722 many thingsG4183, butG1161 nowG3570 muchG4183 more diligentG4707, upon the greatG4183 confidenceG4006 whichG3588 I have inG1519 youG5209. {I have: or, he hath}
WhetherG1535 any do enquire ofG5228 TitusG5103, he is myG1699 partnerG2844 andG2532 fellowhelperG4904 concerningG1519 youG5209: orG1535 ourG2257 brethrenG80 be enquired of, they are the messengersG652 of the churchesG1577, and the gloryG1391 of ChristG5547.
WhereforeG3767 shew yeG1731 toG1519 themG846, andG2532 beforeG1519+G4383 the churchesG1577, the proofG1732 of yourG5216 loveG26, andG2532 of ourG2257 boastingG2746 onG5228 yourG5216 behalfG5228.
ForG1063 DemasG1214 hath forsakenG1459 meG3165, having lovedG25 this presentG3568 worldG165, andG2532 is departedG4198 untoG1519 ThessalonicaG2332; CrescensG2913 toG1519 GalatiaG1053, TitusG5103 untoG1519 DalmatiaG1149.
To openG455 theirG846 eyesG3788, and to turnG1994 them fromG575 darknessG4655 toG1519 lightG5457, andG2532 from the powerG1849 of SatanG4567 untoG1909 GodG2316, that theyG846 may receiveG2983 forgivenessG859 of sinsG266, andG2532 inheritanceG2819 amongG1722 them which are sanctifiedG37 by faithG4102 that is inG1519 meG1691.
ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 have I sentG3992 unto youG5213 TimotheusG5095, whoG3739 isG2076 myG3450 belovedG27 sonG5043, andG2532 faithfulG4103 inG1722 the LordG2962, whoG3739 shall bringG363 youG5209 into remembranceG363 of myG3450 waysG3598 whichG3588 be inG1722 ChristG5547, asG2531 I teachG1321 every whereG3837 inG1722 everyG3956 churchG1577.
ThenG1161 AgrippaG67 saidG5346 untoG4314 PaulG3972, ThouG4671 art permittedG2010 to speakG3004 forG5228 thyselfG4572. ThenG5119 PaulG3972 stretched forthG1614 the handG5495, and answered for himselfG626:
I thinkG2233 myselfG1683 happyG3107, kingG935 AgrippaG67, because I shallG3195 answer for myselfG626 this dayG4594 beforeG1909 theeG4675 touchingG4012 all the thingsG3956 whereofG3739 I am accusedG1458 ofG5259 the JewsG2453:
EspeciallyG3122 because I knowG1492 theeG4571 to beG5607 expertG1109+G5037 in allG3956 customsG1485 andG2532 questionsG2213 which are amongG2596 the JewsG2453: whereforeG1352 I beseechG1189 theeG4675 to hearG191 meG3450 patientlyG3116.
MyG3450 mannerG3303+G3767 of lifeG981 fromG1537 my youthG3503, whichG3588 wasG1096 atG575 the firstG746 amongG1722 mineG3450 own nationG1484 atG1722 JerusalemG2414, knowG2467 allG3956 the JewsG2453;
Which knewG4267 meG3165 from the beginningG509, ifG1437 they wouldG2309 testifyG3140, thatG3754 afterG2596 the most straitestG196 sectG139 of ourG2251 religionG2356 I livedG2198 a PhariseeG5330.
AndG2532 nowG3568 I standG2476 and am judgedG2919 forG1909 the hopeG1680 of the promiseG1860 madeG1096 ofG5259 GodG2316 untoG4314 our fathersG3962:
UntoG1519 whichG3739 promise ourG2257 twelve tribesG1429, instantlyG1722+G1616 servingG3000 God dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571, hopeG1679 to comeG2658. ForG4012 whichG3739 hope's sakeG1680, kingG935 AgrippaG67, I am accusedG1458 ofG5259 the JewsG2453. {day and night: Gr. night and day}
WhyG5101 should it be thought a thingG2919 incredibleG571 withG3844 youG5213, thatG1487 GodG2316 should raiseG1453 the deadG3498?
IG1473 verilyG3303+G3767 thoughtG1380 with myselfG1683, that I oughtG1163 to doG4238 many thingsG4183 contraryG1727 toG4314 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 of NazarethG3480.
Which thingG3739 IG4160 alsoG2532 didG4160 inG1722 JerusalemG2414: andG2532 manyG4183 of the saintsG40 didG2623 IG1473 shut upG2623 in prisonG5438, having receivedG2983 authorityG1849 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749; andG5037 when theyG846 were put to deathG337, I gaveG2702 my voiceG5586 against them.
AndG2532 I punishedG5097 themG846 oftG4178 inG2596 everyG3956 synagogueG4864, and compelledG315 them to blasphemeG987; andG5037 beingG1693 exceedinglyG4057 mad againstG1693 themG846, I persecutedG1377 them evenG2532 untoG1519+G2193 strangeG1854 citiesG4172.
WhereuponG1722+G3739 as I wentG4198 toG1519 DamascusG1154 withG3326 authorityG1849 andG2532 commissionG2011 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749,
At middayG2250+G3319, O kingG935, I sawG1492 inG2596 the wayG3598 a lightG5457 from heavenG3771, aboveG5228 the brightnessG2987 of the sunG2246, shining round aboutG4034 meG3165 andG2532 them which journeyedG4198 withG4862 meG1698.
AndG1161 when weG2257 wereG2667 allG3956 fallenG2667 toG1519 the earthG1093, I heardG191 a voiceG5456 speakingG2980 untoG4314 meG3165, andG2532 sayingG3004 in the HebrewG1446 tongueG1258, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thouG1377 meG3165? it is hardG4642 for theeG4671 to kickG2979 againstG4314 the pricksG2759.
AndG1161 IG1473 saidG2036, WhoG5101 art thouG1488, LordG2962? AndG1161 he saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 JesusG2424 whomG3739 thouG4771 persecutestG1377.
ButG235 riseG450, andG2532 standG2476 uponG1909 thyG4675 feetG4228: forG1063 I have appearedG3700 unto theeG4671 forG1519 this purposeG5124, to makeG4400 theeG4571 a ministerG5257 andG2532 a witnessG3144 bothG5037 of these things whichG3739 thou hast seenG1492, andG5037 of those things in the whichG3739 I will appearG3700 unto theeG4671;
DeliveringG1807 theeG4571 fromG1537 the peopleG2992, andG2532 from the GentilesG1484, untoG1519 whomG3739 nowG3568 I sendG649 theeG4571,
To openG455 theirG846 eyesG3788, and to turnG1994 them fromG575 darknessG4655 toG1519 lightG5457, andG2532 from the powerG1849 of SatanG4567 untoG1909 GodG2316, that theyG846 may receiveG2983 forgivenessG859 of sinsG266, andG2532 inheritanceG2819 amongG1722 them which are sanctifiedG37 by faithG4102 that is inG1519 meG1691.
WhereuponG3606, O kingG935 AgrippaG67, I wasG1096 notG3756 disobedientG545 unto the heavenlyG3770 visionG3701:
ButG235 shewedG518 firstG4412 unto them ofG1722 DamascusG1154, andG2532 at JerusalemG2414, andG5037 throughoutG1519 allG3956 the coastsG5561 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 then to the GentilesG1484, that they should repentG3340 andG2532 turnG1994 toG1909 GodG2316, and doG4238 worksG2041 meetG514 for repentanceG3341.
ForG1752 these causesG5130 the JewsG2453 caughtG4815 meG3165 inG1722 the templeG2411, and went aboutG3987 to killG1315 me.
HavingG5177 thereforeG3767 obtainedG5177 helpG1947 ofG3844 GodG2316, I continueG2476 untoG891 thisG5026 dayG2250, witnessingG3140 bothG5037 to smallG3398 andG2532 greatG3173, sayingG3004 none other thingsG3762 thanG1622 those whichG3739+G5037 the prophetsG4396 andG2532 MosesG3475 did sayG2980 shouldG3195 comeG1096:
ThatG1487 ChristG5547 should sufferG3805, and thatG1487 he should be the firstG4413 that should riseG386 fromG1537 the deadG3498, and shouldG3195 shewG2605 lightG5457 unto the peopleG2992, andG2532 to the GentilesG1484.
AndG1161 as heG846 thusG5023 spake for himselfG626, FestusG5347 saidG5346 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, PaulG3972, thou art beside thyselfG3105; muchG4183 learningG1121 doth makeG4062 theeG4571 madG1519+G3130.
ButG1161 he saidG5346, I amG3105 notG3756 madG3105, most nobleG2903 FestusG5347; butG235 speak forthG669 the wordsG4487 of truthG225 andG2532 sobernessG4997.
ForG1063 the kingG935 knowethG1987 ofG4012 theseG5130 things, beforeG4314 whomG3739 alsoG2532 I speakG2980 freelyG3955: forG1063 I am persuadedG3982 thatG3756 noneG5100+G3762 of these thingsG5130 are hiddenG2990 from himG846; forG1063 this thingG5124 wasG2076 notG3756 doneG4238 inG1722 a cornerG1137.
KingG935 AgrippaG67, believest thouG4100 the prophetsG4396? I knowG1492 thatG3754 thou believestG4100.
ThenG1161 AgrippaG67 saidG5346 untoG4314 PaulG3972, AlmostG1722+G3641 thou persuadestG3982 meG3165 to beG1096 a ChristianG5546.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 saidG2036, I wouldG302+G2172 to GodG2316, that notG3756 onlyG3440 thouG4571, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 that hearG191 meG3450 this dayG4594, wereG1096 bothG2532 almostG1722+G3641, andG2532 altogetherG1722+G4183 suchG5108 asG3697+G2504 I amG1510, exceptG3924 theseG5130 bondsG1199.
AndG2532 when heG846 hadG2036 thusG5023 spokenG2036, the kingG935 rose upG450, andG2532 the governorG2232, andG5037 BerniceG959, andG2532 they that sat withG4775 themG846:
AndG2532 when they were gone asideG402, they talkedG2980 betweenG4314 themselvesG240, sayingG3004+G3754, ThisG3778 manG444 doethG4238 nothingG3762 worthyG514 of deathG2288 orG2228 of bondsG1199.
ThenG1161 saidG5346 AgrippaG67 unto FestusG5347, ThisG3778 manG444 mightG1410 have been set at libertyG630, ifG1508 he hadG1941 notG1508 appealed untoG1941 CaesarG2541.
