King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 ifG1437 ourG2257 earthlyG1919 houseG3614 of this tabernacleG4636 were dissolvedG2647, we haveG2192 a buildingG3619 ofG1537 GodG2316, an houseG3614 not made with handsG886, eternalG166 inG1722 the heavensG3772.
ForG2532+G1063 inG1722 thisG5129 we groanG4727, earnestly desiringG1971 to be clothed uponG1902 with ourG2257 houseG3613 whichG3588 is fromG1537 heavenG3772:
IfG1489 soG2532 be that being clothedG1746 we shallG2147 notG3756 be foundG2147 nakedG1131.
ForG2532+G1063 we that areG5607 inG1722 this tabernacleG4636 do groanG4727, being burdenedG916: notG3756 for thatG1894 we wouldG2309 be unclothedG1562, butG235 clothed uponG1902, thatG2443 mortalityG2349 might be swallowed upG2666 ofG5259 lifeG2222.
NowG1161 he that hath wroughtG2716 usG2248 forG1519 the selfsame thingG846+G5124 is GodG2316, whoG3588 alsoG2532 hath givenG1325 unto usG2254 the earnestG728 of the SpiritG4151.
ThereforeG3767+G2532 we are alwaysG3842 confidentG2292, knowingG1492 thatG3754, whilst we are at homeG1736 inG1722 the bodyG4983, we are absentG1553 fromG575 the LordG2962:
(ForG1063 we walkG4043 byG1223 faithG4102, notG3756 byG1223 sightG1491:)
We are confidentG2292, I say, andG1161+G2532 willingG2106 ratherG3123 to be absentG1553 fromG1537 the bodyG4983, andG2532 to be presentG1736 withG4314 the LordG2962.
WhereforeG1352 we labourG5389, thatG2532, whetherG1535 presentG1736 orG1535 absentG1553, we may beG1511 acceptedG2101 of himG846. {labour: or, endeavour}
ForG1063 weG2248 mustG1163 allG3956 appearG5319 beforeG1715 the judgment seatG968 of ChristG5547; thatG2443 every oneG1538 may receiveG2865 the things done inG1223 his bodyG4983, accordingG4314 to thatG3739 he hath doneG4238, whetherG1535 it be goodG18 orG1535 badG2556.
KnowingG1492 thereforeG3767 the terrorG5401 of the LordG2962, we persuadeG3982 menG444; butG1161 we are made manifestG5319 unto GodG2316; andG1161 I trustG1679 alsoG2532 are made manifestG5319 inG1722 yourG5216 consciencesG4893.
ForG1063 we commendG4921 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 againG3825 unto youG5213, butG235 giveG1325 youG5213 occasionG874 to gloryG2745 onG5228 ourG2257 behalfG5228, thatG2443 ye may haveG2192 somewhat toG4314 answer them which gloryG2744 inG1722 appearanceG4383, andG2532 notG3756 in heartG2588. {in appearance: Gr. in the face}
ForG1063 whetherG1535 we be beside ourselvesG1839, it is to GodG2316: or whetherG1535 we be soberG4993, it is for your causeG5213.
ForG1063 the loveG26 of ChristG5547 constrainethG4912 usG2248; because we thusG5124 judgeG2919, thatG3754 ifG1487 oneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thenG686 wereG599 allG3956 deadG599:
AndG2532 that he diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thatG2443 they which liveG2198 shouldG2198 not henceforthG3371 liveG2198 unto themselvesG1438, butG235 unto him which diedG599 forG5228 themG846, andG2532 rose againG1453.
WhereforeG5620 henceforthG575+G3568 knowG1492 weG2249 no manG3762 afterG2596 the fleshG4561: yeaG1161, thoughG1499 we have knownG1097 ChristG5547 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, yetG235 nowG3568 henceforthG3765 know weG1097 him no moreG3765.
ThereforeG5620 if any manG1536 be inG1722 ChristG5547, he is a newG2537 creatureG2937: old thingsG744 are passed awayG3928; beholdG2400, all thingsG3956 are becomeG1096 newG2537. {he is: or, let him be}
AndG1161 all thingsG3956 are ofG1537 GodG2316, whoG3588 hath reconciledG2644 usG2248 to himselfG1438 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 hath givenG1325 to usG2254 the ministryG1248 of reconciliationG2643;
To witG5613, thatG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 inG1722 ChristG5547, reconcilingG2644 the worldG2889 unto himselfG1438, notG3361 imputingG3049 theirG846 trespassesG3900 unto themG846; andG2532 hath committedG5087 untoG1722 usG2254 the wordG3056 of reconciliationG2643. {committed…: Gr. put in us}
Now thenG3767 we are ambassadorsG4243 forG5228 ChristG5547, as thoughG5613 GodG2316 did beseechG3870 you byG1223 usG2257: we prayG1189 you inG5228 Christ'sG5547 steadG5228, be ye reconciledG2644 to GodG2316.
ForG1063 he hath madeG4160 him to be sinG266 forG5228 usG2257, whoG3588 knewG1097 noG3361 sinG266; thatG2443 weG2249 might be madeG1096 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 inG1722 himG846.
InG1722 a momentG823, inG1722 the twinklingG4493 of an eyeG3788, atG1722 the lastG2078 trumpG4536: forG1063 the trumpet shall soundG4537, andG2532 the deadG3498 shall be raisedG1453 incorruptibleG862, andG2532 weG2249 shall be changedG236.
ForG1063 thisG5124 we sayG3004 unto youG5213 byG1722 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, thatG3754 weG2249 whichG3588 are aliveG2198 and remainG4035 untoG1519 the comingG3952 of the LordG2962 shallG5348 notG3364 preventG5348 them whichG3588 are asleepG2837. {prevent: or, come before, or, anticipate, or, precede}
ForG3754 the LordG2962 himselfG846 shall descendG2597 fromG575 heavenG3772 withG1722 a shoutG2752, withG1722 the voiceG5456 of the archangelG743, andG2532 withG1722 the trumpG4536 of GodG2316: andG2532 the deadG3498 inG1722 ChristG5547 shall riseG450 firstG4412:
ThenG1899 weG2249 whichG3588 are aliveG2198 and remainG4035 shall be caught upG726 togetherG260 withG4862 themG846 inG1722 the cloudsG3507, toG1519 meetG529 the LordG2962 inG1519 the airG109: andG2532 soG3779 shall weG2071 everG3842 beG2071 withG4862 the LordG2962.
WhereforeG5620 comfortG3870 one anotherG240 withG1722 theseG5125 wordsG3056. {comfort: or, exhort}
HereinG1722+G5129 is ourG3326+G2257 loveG26 made perfectG5048, thatG2443 we may haveG2192 boldnessG3954 inG1722 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920: becauseG3754 asG2531 heG1565 isG2076, soG2532 areG2070 weG2249 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG2889. {our love: Gr. love with us}
There isG2076 noG3756 fearG5401 inG1722 loveG26; butG235 perfectG5046 loveG26 castethG906 outG1854 fearG5401: becauseG3754 fearG5401 hathG2192 tormentG2851+G1161. He that fearethG5399 isG5048 notG3756 made perfectG5048 inG1722 loveG26.
WhoG3739 was deliveredG3860 forG1223 ourG2257 offencesG3900, andG2532 was raised againG1453 forG1223 ourG2257 justificationG1347.
There is thereforeG686 nowG3568 noG3762 condemnationG2631 to them which are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
WhoG5101 shall separateG5563 usG2248 fromG575 the loveG26 of ChristG5547? shall tribulationG2347, orG2228 distressG4730, orG2228 persecutionG1375, orG2228 famineG3042, orG2228 nakednessG1132, orG2228 perilG2794, orG2228 swordG3162?
ForG1063 we areG2070 hisG846 workmanshipG4161, createdG2936 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 untoG1909 goodG18 worksG2041, whichG3739 GodG2316 hath before ordainedG4282 thatG2443 we should walkG4043 inG1722 themG846. {ordained: or, prepared}
To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107 byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
