PaulG3972, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 TimothyG5095 our brotherG80, unto the churchG1577 of GodG2316 whichG3588 isG5607 atG1722 CorinthG2882, withG4862 allG3956 the saintsG40 whichG3588 areG5607 inG1722 allG3650 AchaiaG882:
GraceG5485 be to youG5213 andG2532 peaceG1515 fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 from the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
BeholdG2400, the third timeG5154 I amG2192 readyG2093 to comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209; andG2532 I willG2655 notG3756 be burdensomeG2655 to youG5216: forG1063 I seekG2212 notG3756 yoursG5216, butG235 youG5209: forG1063 the childrenG5043 oughtG3784 notG3756 to lay upG2343 for the parentsG1118, butG235 the parentsG1118 for the childrenG5043.
ThisG5124 is the thirdG5154 time I am comingG2064 toG4314 youG5209. InG1909 the mouthG4750 of twoG1417 orG2532 threeG5140 witnessesG3144 shallG2476 everyG3956 wordG4487 be establishedG2476.
AndG1161 when he had gone overG1330 thoseG1565 partsG3313, andG2532 had givenG4183 themG846 muchG4183 exhortationG3870+G3056, he cameG2064 intoG1519 GreeceG1671,
AndG5037 there abodeG4160 threeG5140 monthsG3376. And when the JewsG5259+G2453 laidG1096 waitG1917 for himG846, as he was aboutG3195 to sailG321 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, he purposedG1096+G1106 to returnG5290 throughG1223 MacedoniaG3109.
BlessedG2128 be GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the FatherG3962 of merciesG3628, andG2532 the GodG2316 of allG3956 comfortG3874;
WhoG3588 comfortethG3870 usG2248 inG1909 allG3956 ourG2257 tribulationG2347, thatG1519 weG2248 may be ableG1410 to comfortG3870 them which are inG1722 anyG3956 troubleG2347, byG1223 the comfortG3874 wherewithG3739 weG3870 ourselvesG846 are comfortedG3870 ofG5259 GodG2316.
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}
BlessedG2128 be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 hath blessedG2127 usG2248 withG1722 allG3956 spiritualG4152 blessingsG2129 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places inG1722 ChristG5547: {places: or, things}
BlessedG2128 be GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the FatherG3962 of merciesG3628, andG2532 the GodG2316 of allG3956 comfortG3874;
WhoG3588 comfortethG3870 usG2248 inG1909 allG3956 ourG2257 tribulationG2347, thatG1519 weG2248 may be ableG1410 to comfortG3870 them which are inG1722 anyG3956 troubleG2347, byG1223 the comfortG3874 wherewithG3739 weG3870 ourselvesG846 are comfortedG3870 ofG5259 GodG2316.
Know ye notG50, brethrenG80, (forG1063 I speakG2980 to them that knowG1097 the lawG3551,) how thatG3754 the lawG3551 hath dominion overG2961 a manG444 as long asG1909+G3745+G5550 he livethG2198?
ForG1063 the womanG1135 which hath an husbandG5220 is boundG1210 by the lawG3551 to her husbandG435 so long as he livethG2198; butG1161 ifG1437 the husbandG435 be deadG599, she is loosedG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551 of her husbandG435.
So thenG686+G3767 ifG1437, while her husbandG435 livethG2198, she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435, she shall be calledG5537 an adulteressG3428: butG1161 ifG1437 her husbandG435 be deadG599, she isG2076 freeG1658 fromG575 that lawG3551; so that sheG846 isG1511 noG3361 adulteressG3428, though she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 brethrenG80, yeG5210 alsoG2532 are become deadG2289 to the lawG3551 byG1223 the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547; thatG1519 yeG5209 should be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087, even to him who is raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, thatG2443 we should bring forth fruitG2592 unto GodG2316.
ForG1063 whenG3753 we wereG2258 inG1722 the fleshG4561, the motionsG3804 of sinsG266, whichG3588 were byG1223 the lawG3551, did workG1754 inG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196 to bringG1519 forth fruitG2592 unto deathG2288. {motions: Gr. passions}
ButG1161 nowG3570 we are deliveredG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551, that being deadG599 whereinG1722+G3739 we were heldG2722; thatG5620 weG2248 should serveG1398 inG1722 newnessG2538 of spiritG4151, andG2532 notG3756 in the oldnessG3821 of the letterG1121. {that being…: or, being dead to that}
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Is the lawG3551 sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096. NayG235, I hadG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 sinG266, butG1508 byG1223 the lawG3551: forG1063+G5037 I hadG1492 notG3756 knownG1492 lustG1939, exceptG1508 the lawG3551 had saidG3004, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937. {lust: or, concupiscence}
ButG1161 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, wroughtG2716 inG1722 meG1698 all manner ofG3956 concupiscenceG1939. ForG1063 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 sinG266 was deadG3498.
ForG1161 IG1473 was aliveG2198 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 onceG4218: butG1161 when the commandmentG1785 cameG2064, sinG266 revivedG326, andG1161 IG1473 diedG599.
AndG2532 the commandmentG1785, whichG3588 was ordained toG1519 lifeG2222, IG3427 foundG2147+G3778 to be untoG1519 deathG2288.
ForG1063 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, deceivedG1818 meG3165, andG2532 byG1223 itG846 slewG615 me.
WhereforeG5620+G3303 the lawG3551 is holyG40, andG2532 the commandmentG1785 holyG40, andG2532 justG1342, andG2532 goodG18.
Was thenG3767 that which is goodG18 madeG1096 deathG2288 unto meG1698? God forbidG3361+G1096. ButG235 sinG266, thatG2443 it might appearG5316 sinG266, workingG2716 deathG2288 in meG3427 byG1223 that which is goodG18; thatG2443 sinG266 byG1223 the commandmentG1785 might becomeG1096 exceedingG2596+G5236 sinfulG268.
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the lawG3551 isG2076 spiritualG4152: butG1161 IG1473 amG1510 carnalG4559, soldG4097 underG5259 sinG266.
ForG1063 that whichG3739 I doG2716 I allowG1097 notG3756: forG1063 whatG3739 I wouldG2309, thatG5124 do IG4238 notG3756; butG235 whatG3739 I hateG3404, thatG5124 do IG4160. {allow: Gr. know}
IfG1487 thenG1161 I doG4160 thatG5124 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, I consentG4852 unto the lawG3551 thatG3754 it is goodG2570.
NowG3570 thenG1161 it is no moreG3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
ForG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 inG1722 meG1698 (that isG5123, inG1722 myG3450 fleshG4561,) dwellethG3611 noG3756 good thingG18: forG1063 to willG2309 is presentG3873 with meG3427; butG1161 how to performG2716 that which is goodG2570 I findG2147 notG3756.
ForG1063+G3739 the goodG18 that I wouldG2309 I doG4160 notG3756: butG235 the evilG2556 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, thatG5124 I doG4238.
NowG1161 ifG1487+G3739 I doG4160 thatG5124 IG1473 wouldG2309 notG3756, it is no moreG2089+G3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
I findG2147 thenG686 a lawG3551, thatG3754, when IG1698 wouldG2309 doG4160 goodG2570, evilG2556 is presentG3873 with meG1698.
ForG1063 I delightG4913 in the lawG3551 of GodG2316 afterG2596 the inwardG2080 manG444:
ButG1161 I seeG991 anotherG2087 lawG3551 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196, warring againstG497 the lawG3551 of myG3450 mindG3563, andG2532 bringingG163 meG3165 into captivityG163 to the lawG3551 of sinG266 whichG3588 isG5607 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196.
O wretchedG5005 manG444 that I amG1473! whoG5101 shall deliverG4506 meG3165 fromG1537 the bodyG4983 of thisG5127 deathG2288? {the body…: or, this body of death}
I thankG2168 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962. So thenG686+G3767 with the mindG3563 IG1473 myselfG846 serveG3303+G1398 the lawG3551 of GodG2316; butG1161 with the fleshG4561 the lawG3551 of sinG266.
ForG1063 IG1473 throughG1223 the lawG3551 am deadG599 to the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might liveG2198 unto GodG2316.
ChristG5547 hath redeemedG1805 usG2248 fromG1537 the curseG2671 of the lawG3551, being madeG1096 a curseG2671 forG5228 usG2257: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, CursedG1944 is every oneG3956 that hangethG2910 onG1909 a treeG3586:
ThatG2443 the blessingG2129 of AbrahamG11 might comeG1096 onG1519 the GentilesG1484 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; thatG2443 we might receiveG2983 the promiseG1860 of the SpiritG4151 throughG1223 faithG4102.
AndG1161 they that areG3588 Christ'sG5547 have crucifiedG4717 the fleshG4561 withG4862 the affectionsG3804 andG2532 lustsG1939. {affections: or, passions}
MortifyG3499 thereforeG3767 yourG5216 membersG3196 whichG3588 are uponG1909 the earthG1093; fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, inordinate affectionG3806, evilG2556 concupiscenceG1939, andG2532 covetousnessG4124, whichG3748 isG2076 idolatryG1495:
ButG1161 God forbidG3361+G1096 that IG1698 should gloryG2744, saveG1508 inG1722 the crossG4716 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 the worldG2889 is crucifiedG4717 unto meG1698, and IG2504 unto the worldG2889. {by whom: or, whereby}
And we knowG1492 thatG3754 we areG2070 ofG1537 GodG2316, andG2532 the wholeG3650 worldG2889 liethG2749 inG1722 wickednessG4190.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
PaulG3972, an apostleG652, (notG3756 ofG575 menG444, neitherG3761 byG1223 manG444, butG235 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 GodG2316 the FatherG3962, whoG3588 raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498;)
AndG2532 allG3956 the brethrenG80 which are withG4862 meG1698, unto the churchesG1577 of GalatiaG1053:
GraceG5485 be to youG5213 andG2532 peaceG1515 fromG575 GodG2316 the FatherG3962, andG2532 from ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
WhoG3588 gaveG1325 himselfG1438 forG5228 ourG2257 sinsG266, thatG3704 he might deliverG1807 usG2248 fromG1537 this presentG1764 evilG4190 worldG165, accordingG2596 to the willG2307 of GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 FatherG3962:
To whomG3739 be gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
I marvelG2296 thatG3754 ye areG3346 soG3779 soonG5030 removedG3346 fromG575 him that calledG2564 youG5209 intoG1722 the graceG5485 of ChristG5547 untoG1519 anotherG2087 gospelG2098:
WhichG3739 isG2076 notG3756 anotherG243; but there beG1526 someG5100 thatG1508 troubleG5015 youG5209, andG2532 wouldG2309 pervertG3344 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
ButG235 thoughG2532+G1437 weG2249, orG2228 an angelG32 fromG1537 heavenG3772, preach any other gospelG2097 unto youG5213 thanG3844 that whichG3739 we have preachedG2097 unto youG5213, let him beG2077 accursedG331.
AsG5613 we said beforeG4280, soG2532 say IG3004 nowG737 againG3825, If anyG1536 man preachG2097 any otherG3844 gospelG2097 unto youG5209 thanG3844 thatG3739 ye have receivedG3880, let him beG2077 accursedG331.
ForG1063 do IG3982 nowG737 persuadeG3982 menG444, orG2228 GodG2316? orG2228 do I seekG2212 to pleaseG700 menG444? forG1063 ifG1487 IG700 yetG2089 pleasedG700 menG444, I shouldG302 notG3756 beG2252 the servantG1401 of ChristG5547.
ButG1161 I certifyG1107 youG5213, brethrenG80, thatG3754 the gospelG2098 whichG3588 was preachedG2097 ofG5259 meG1700 isG2076 notG3756 afterG2596 manG444.
ForG1063 IG1473 neitherG3761 receivedG3880 itG846 ofG3844 manG444, neitherG3777 was I taughtG1321 it, butG235 byG1223 the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
ForG1063 ye have heardG191 of myG1699 conversationG391 in time pastG4218 inG1722 the Jews' religionG2454, how thatG3754 beyondG2596 measureG5236 I persecutedG1377 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, andG2532 wastedG4199 itG846:
AndG2532 profitedG4298 inG1722 the Jews' religionG2454 aboveG5228 manyG4183 my equalsG4915 inG1722 mine ownG3450 nationG1085, beingG5225 more exceedinglyG4056 zealousG2207 of the traditionsG3862 of myG3450 fathersG3967. {equals: Gr. equals in years}
ButG1161 whenG3753 it pleasedG2106 GodG2316, whoG3588 separatedG873 meG3165 fromG1537 myG3450 mother'sG3384 wombG2836, andG2532 calledG2564 me byG1223 hisG846 graceG5485,
To revealG601 hisG846 SonG5207 inG1722 meG1698, thatG2443 I might preachG2097 himG846 amongG1722 the heathenG1484; immediatelyG2112 I conferredG4323 notG3756 with fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129:
NeitherG3761 went I upG424 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 toG4314 them which were apostlesG652 beforeG4253 meG1700; butG235 I wentG565 intoG1519 ArabiaG688, andG2532 returnedG5290 againG3825 untoG1519 DamascusG1154.
ThenG1899 afterG3326 threeG5140 yearsG2094 I went upG424 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 to seeG2477 PeterG4074, andG2532 abodeG1961 withG4314 himG846 fifteenG1178 daysG2250. {went up: or, returned}
ButG1161 otherG2087 of the apostlesG652 saw IG1492 noneG3756, saveG1508 JamesG2385 the Lord'sG2962 brotherG80.
NowG1161 the things whichG3739 I writeG1125 unto youG5213, beholdG2400, beforeG1799 GodG2316+G3754, I lieG5574 notG3756.
AfterwardsG1899 I cameG2064 intoG1519 the regionsG2824 of SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791;
AndG1161 wasG2252 unknownG50 by faceG4383 unto the churchesG1577 of JudaeaG2449 whichG3588 were inG1722 ChristG5547:
ButG1161 they hadG2258 heardG191 onlyG3440, ThatG3754 he which persecutedG1377 usG2248 in times pastG4218 nowG3568 preachethG2097 the faithG4102 whichG3739 onceG4218 he destroyedG4199.
AndG2532 they glorifiedG1392 GodG2316 inG1722 meG1698.
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.
ButG1161 ofG575 these who seemedG1380 to beG1511 somewhatG5100, (whatsoeverG3697+G4218 they wereG2258, it makethG1308 noG3762 matterG1308 to meG3427: GodG2316 acceptethG2983 noG3756 man'sG444 personG4383:) forG1063 they who seemedG1380 to be somewhat in conference addedG4323 nothingG3762 to meG1698:
ButG235 contrariwiseG5121, when they sawG1492 thatG3754 the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203 was committed unto meG4100, asG2531 the gospel of the circumcisionG4061 was unto PeterG4074;
(ForG1063 he that wrought effectuallyG1754 in PeterG4074 toG1519 the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061, the sameG2532 was mightyG1754 in meG1698 towardG1519 the GentilesG1484:)
AndG2532 when JamesG2385+G2532, CephasG2786, andG2532 JohnG2491, whoG3588 seemedG1380 to beG1511 pillarsG4769, perceivedG1097 the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 unto meG3427, they gaveG1325 to meG1698 andG2532 BarnabasG921 the right handsG1188 of fellowshipG2842; thatG2443 weG2249 should go untoG1519 the heathenG1484, andG1161 theyG846 untoG1519 the circumcisionG4061.
OnlyG3440 they would thatG2443 we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434; the sameG846+G5124 whichG3739 IG4704 alsoG2532 was forwardG4704 to doG4160.
ButG1161 whenG3753 PeterG4074 was comeG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490, I withstoodG436 himG846 toG2596 the faceG4383, becauseG3754 he wasG2258 to be blamedG2607.
ForG1063 beforeG4253 that certainG5100 cameG2064 fromG575 JamesG2385, he did eatG4906 withG3326 the GentilesG1484: butG1161 whenG3753 they were comeG2064, he withdrewG5288 andG2532 separatedG873 himselfG1438, fearingG5399 them which were ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061.
AndG2532 the otherG3062 JewsG2453 dissembledG4942 likewiseG2532 with himG846; insomuchG5620 that BarnabasG921 alsoG2532 was carried awayG4879 with theirG846 dissimulationG5272.
ButG235 whenG3753 I sawG1492 thatG3754 they walkedG3716 notG3756 uprightlyG3716 according toG4314 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098, I saidG2036 unto PeterG4074 beforeG1715 them allG3956, IfG1487 thouG4771, beingG5225 a JewG2453, livestG2198 after the manner of GentilesG1483, andG2532 notG3756 as do the JewsG2452, whyG5101 compellest thouG315 the GentilesG1484 to live as do the JewsG2450?
WeG2249 who are JewsG2453 by natureG5449, andG2532 notG3756 sinnersG268 ofG1537 the GentilesG1484,
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 a manG444 isG1344 notG3756 justifiedG1344 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551, butG3362 byG1223 the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 weG2249 have believedG4100 inG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551: forG1360 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 shallG1344 noG3756+G3956 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344.
ButG1161 ifG1487, while we seekG2212 to be justifiedG1344 byG1722 ChristG5547, weG2147 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532 are foundG2147 sinnersG268, is thereforeG687 ChristG5547 the ministerG1249 of sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096.
ForG1063 ifG1487 I buildG3618 againG3825 the thingsG5023 whichG3739 I destroyedG2647, I makeG4921 myselfG1683 a transgressorG3848.
ForG1063 IG1473 throughG1223 the lawG3551 am deadG599 to the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might liveG2198 unto GodG2316.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
I doG114 notG3756 frustrateG114 the graceG5485 of GodG2316: forG1063 ifG1487 righteousnessG1343 come byG1223 the lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 is deadG599 in vainG1432.
I am becomeG1096 a foolG878 in gloryingG2744; yeG5210 have compelledG315 meG3165: forG1063 IG1473 oughtG3784 to have been commendedG4921 ofG5259 youG5216: forG1063 in nothingG3762 am I behindG5302 the very chiefestG3029 apostlesG652+G5228, thoughG1499 I beG1510 nothingG3762.
ForG3754 asG2531 the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547 aboundG4052 inG1519 usG2248, soG3779 ourG2257 consolationG3874 alsoG2532 aboundethG4052 byG1223 ChristG5547.
AndG1161 whetherG1535 we be afflictedG2346, it is forG5228 yourG5216 consolationG3874 andG2532 salvationG4991, whichG3588 is effectualG1754 inG1722 the enduringG5281 of the sameG846 sufferingsG3804 whichG3739 weG2249 alsoG2532 sufferG3958: or whetherG1535 we be comfortedG3870, it is forG5228 yourG5216 consolationG3874 andG2532 salvationG4991. {is effectual: or, is wrought}
AndG2532 ourG2257 hopeG1680 ofG5228 youG5216 is stedfastG949, knowingG1492, thatG3754 asG5618 ye areG2075 partakersG2844 of the sufferingsG3804, soG3779 shall ye be alsoG2532 of the consolationG3874.
ForG1063 we wouldG2309 notG3756, brethrenG80, haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50 ofG5228 ourG2257 troubleG2347 whichG3588 cameG1096 to usG2254 inG1722 AsiaG773, thatG3754 we were pressedG2596 outG916 of measureG5236, aboveG5228 strengthG1411, insomuchG5620 that weG2248 despairedG1820 evenG2532 of lifeG2198:
ButG235+G846 we hadG2192 the sentenceG610 of deathG2288 inG1722 ourselvesG1438, thatG3363 we shouldG3982 notG3363 trustG3982 inG1909 ourselvesG1438+G5600, butG235 inG1909 GodG2316 whichG3588 raisethG1453 the deadG3498: {sentence: or, answer}
WhoG3739 deliveredG4506 usG2248 fromG1537 so greatG5082 a deathG2288, andG2532 doth deliverG4506: inG1519 whomG3739 we trustG1679 thatG3754 he willG4506+G2532 yetG2089 deliverG4506 us;
YeG5216 alsoG2532 helping togetherG4943 by prayerG1162 forG5228 usG2257, thatG2443 for the giftG5486 bestowed uponG1519 usG2248 byG1537 the means of manyG4183 personsG4383 thanks may beG2168 givenG5228 byG1223 manyG4183 on our behalfG2257.
ForG1063 ourG2257 rejoicingG2746 isG2076 thisG3778, the testimonyG3142 of ourG2257 conscienceG4893, thatG3754 inG1722 simplicityG572 andG2532 godlyG2316 sincerityG1505, notG3756 withG1722 fleshlyG4559 wisdomG4678, butG235 byG1722 the graceG5485 of GodG2316, we have had our conversationG390 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG1161 more abundantlyG4056 toG4314 you-wardG5209.
ForG1063 we writeG1125 noneG3756 other thingsG243 unto youG5213, thanG235+G2228 whatG3739 ye readG314 orG2228+G2532 acknowledgeG1921; andG1161 I trustG1679+G3754 ye shall acknowledgeG1921 evenG2532 toG2193 the endG5056;
AsG2531 alsoG2532 ye have acknowledgedG1921 usG2248 inG575 partG3313, thatG3754 we areG2070 yourG5216 rejoicingG2745, even asG2509 yeG5210 alsoG2532 are oursG2257 inG1722 the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
AndG2532 in thisG5026 confidenceG4006 I was mindedG1014 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 beforeG4386, thatG2443 ye might haveG2192 a secondG1208 benefitG5485; {benefit: or, grace}
AndG2532 to passG1330 byG1223 youG5216 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, andG2532 to comeG2064 againG3825 out ofG575 MacedoniaG3109 untoG4314 youG5209, andG2532 ofG5259 youG5216 to be brought on my wayG4311 towardG1519 JudaeaG2449.
When IG1011 thereforeG3767 wasG1011 thusG5124 mindedG1011, did I useG3385+G686+G5530 lightnessG1644? orG2228 the things thatG3739 I purposeG1011, do I purposeG1011 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, thatG2443 withG3844 meG1698 there should beG5600 yeaG3483 yeaG3483, andG2532 nayG3756 nayG3756?
ButG1161 as GodG2316 is trueG4103+G3754, ourG2257 wordG3056 towardG4314 youG5209 wasG1096 notG3756 yeaG3483 andG2532 nayG3756. {word: or, preaching}
ForG1063 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 was preachedG2784 amongG1722 youG5213 byG1223 usG2257, even byG1223 meG1700 andG2532 SilvanusG4610 andG2532 TimotheusG5095, wasG1096 notG3756 yeaG3483 andG2532 nayG3756, butG235 inG1722 himG846 wasG1096 yeaG3483.
I knewG1492 a manG444 inG1722 ChristG5547 aboveG4253 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 agoG4253, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492; or whetherG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;) such an oneG5108 caught upG726 toG2193 the thirdG5154 heavenG3772.
ForG1063 allG3745 the promisesG1860 of GodG2316 inG1722 himG846 are yeaG3483, andG2532 inG1722 himG846 AmenG281, untoG4314 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 byG1223 usG2257.
ThatG2443 the blessingG2129 of AbrahamG11 might comeG1096 onG1519 the GentilesG1484 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; thatG2443 we might receiveG2983 the promiseG1860 of the SpiritG4151 throughG1223 faithG4102.
InG1909 hopeG1680 of eternalG166 lifeG2222, whichG3739 GodG2316, that cannot lieG893, promisedG1861 beforeG4253 the worldG166 beganG5550; {In: or, For}
NowG1161 he which stablishethG950 usG2248 withG4862 youG5213 inG1519 ChristG5547, andG2532 hath anointedG5548 usG2248, is GodG2316;
WhoG3588 hathG4972 alsoG2532 sealedG4972 usG2248, andG2532 givenG1325 the earnestG728 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588.
MoreoverG1161 IG1473 callG1941 GodG2316 for a recordG3144 uponG1909 myG1699 soulG5590, thatG3754 to spareG5339 youG5216 I cameG2064 not as yetG3765 untoG1519 CorinthG2882.
NotG3756 for thatG3754 we have dominion overG2961 yourG5216 faithG4102, butG235 areG2070 helpersG4904 of yourG5216 joyG5479: forG1063 by faithG4102 ye standG2476.
