ForG1063 the mysteryG3466 of iniquityG458 dothG1754 alreadyG2235 workG1754: onlyG3440 he who nowG737 lettethG2722 will let, untilG2193 he be takenG1096 out ofG1537 the wayG3319.
NeverthelessG3305 the foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standethG2476 sureG4731, havingG2192 thisG5026 sealG4973, The LordG2962 knowethG1097 them that areG5607 hisG846. AndG2532, LetG868 every oneG3956 that namethG3687 the nameG3686 of ChristG5547 departG868 fromG575 iniquityG93. {sure: or, steady}
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
NeverthelessG3305 the foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standethG2476 sureG4731, havingG2192 thisG5026 sealG4973, The LordG2962 knowethG1097 them that areG5607 hisG846. AndG2532, LetG868 every oneG3956 that namethG3687 the nameG3686 of ChristG5547 departG868 fromG575 iniquityG93. {sure: or, steady}
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}
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.
And are builtG2026 uponG1909 the foundationG2310 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846 beingG5607 the chief cornerG204 stone;
InG1722 whomG3739 allG3956 the buildingG3619 fitly framed togetherG4883 growethG837 untoG1519 an holyG40 templeG3485 inG1722 the LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 yeG5210 alsoG2532 are builded togetherG4925 forG1519 an habitationG2732 of GodG2316 throughG1722 the SpiritG4151.
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}
ButG1161 ifG1437 I tarry longG1019, thatG2443 thou mayest knowG1492 howG4459 thou oughtestG1163 to behave thyselfG390 inG1722 the houseG3624 of GodG2316, whichG3748 isG2076 the churchG1577 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the pillarG4769 andG2532 groundG1477 of the truthG225. {ground: or, stay}
AndG1161 I sayG3004 alsoG2504 unto theeG4671, ThatG3754 thouG4771 artG1488 PeterG4074, andG2532 uponG1909 thisG5026 rockG4073 I will buildG3618 myG3450 churchG1577; andG2532 the gatesG4439 of hellG86 shallG2729 notG3756 prevail againstG2729 itG846. {Peter: this name signifies a rock}
ForG1063 heG846 isG2076 ourG2257 peaceG1515, whoG3588 hath madeG4160 bothG297 oneG1520, andG2532 hath broken downG3089 the middle wallG3320 of partitionG5418 between us;
Having abolishedG2673 inG1722 hisG846 fleshG4561 the enmityG2189, even the lawG3551 of commandmentsG1785 contained inG1722 ordinancesG1378; for toG2443 makeG2936 inG1722 himselfG1438 of twainG1417 oneG1519+G1520 newG2537 manG444, so makingG4160 peaceG1515;
AndG2532 that he might reconcileG604 bothG297 unto GodG2316 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983 byG1223 the crossG4716, having slainG615 the enmityG2189 therebyG1722+G846: {thereby: or, in himself}
For thisG5127 causeG5484 IG1473 PaulG3972, the prisonerG1198 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 GentilesG1484,
IfG1489 ye have heardG191 of the dispensationG3622 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 whichG3588 is givenG1325 meG3427 toG1519 you-wardG5209:
How thatG3754 byG2596 revelationG602 he made knownG1107 unto meG3427 the mysteryG3466; (asG2531 I wrote aforeG4270 inG1722 few wordsG3641, {afore…: or, a little before}
WherebyG4314+G3739, when ye readG314, ye mayG1410 understandG3539 myG3450 knowledgeG4907 inG1722 the mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547)
WhichG3739 inG1722 otherG2087 agesG1074 wasG1107 notG3756 made knownG1107 unto the sonsG5207 of menG444, asG5613 it isG601 nowG3568 revealedG601 unto hisG846 holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396 byG1722 the SpiritG4151;
That the GentilesG1484 should beG1511 fellowheirsG4789, andG2532 of the same bodyG4954, andG2532 partakersG4830 of hisG846 promiseG1860 inG1722 ChristG5547 byG1223 the gospelG2098:
WhereofG3739 I was madeG1096 a ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 givenG1325 unto meG3427 byG2596 the effectual workingG1753 of hisG846 powerG1411.
Unto meG1698, who am less than the leastG1647 of allG3956 saintsG40, isG1325 thisG3778 graceG5485 givenG1325, that I should preachG2097 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 the unsearchableG421 richesG4149 of ChristG5547;
AndG2532 to makeG5461 allG3956 men seeG5461 whatG5101 is the fellowshipG2842 of the mysteryG3466, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165 hath been hidG613 inG1722 GodG2316, whoG3588 createdG2936 all thingsG3956 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107 byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
According toG2596 the eternalG165 purposeG4286 whichG3739 he purposedG4160 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192 boldnessG3954 andG2532 accessG4318 withG1722 confidenceG4006 byG1223 the faithG4102 of himG846.
WhereforeG1352 I desireG154 that ye faintG1573 notG3361 atG1722 myG3450 tribulationsG2347 forG5228 youG5216, whichG3748 isG2076 yourG5216 gloryG1391.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 I bowG2578 myG3450 kneesG1119 untoG4314 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
OfG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 familyG3965 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1909+G1093 is namedG3687,
ThatG2443 he would grantG1325 youG5213, according toG2596 the richesG4149 of hisG846 gloryG1391, to be strengthenedG2901 with mightG1411 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 inG1519 the innerG2080 manG444;
That ChristG5547 may dwellG2730 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588 byG1223 faithG4102; thatG2443 ye, being rootedG4492 andG2532 groundedG2311 inG1722 loveG26,
May be ableG1840 to comprehendG2638 withG4862 allG3956 saintsG40 whatG5101 is the breadthG4114, andG2532 lengthG3372, andG2532 depthG899, andG2532 heightG5311;
AndG5037 to knowG1097 the loveG26 of ChristG5547, which passethG5235 knowledgeG1108, thatG2443 ye might be filledG4137 withG1519 allG3956 the fulnessG4138 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410 to doG4160 exceedingG5228 abundantlyG1537+G4053 aboveG5228 allG3956 thatG3739 we askG154 orG2228 thinkG3539, according toG2596 the powerG1411 that workethG1754 inG1722 usG2254,
Unto himG846 be gloryG1391 inG1722 the churchG1577 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughoutG1519 allG3956 agesG1074, worldG165 without endG165. AmenG281.
WhoG3588 hath savedG4982 usG2248, andG2532 calledG2564 us with an holyG40 callingG2821, notG3756 according toG2596 ourG2257 worksG2041, butG235 according toG2596 his ownG2398 purposeG4286 andG2532 graceG5485, whichG3588 was givenG1325 usG2254 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 beforeG4253 the world beganG5550+G166,
AndG2532 youG5209 hath he quickened, who wereG5607 deadG3498 in trespassesG3900 andG2532 sinsG266;
WhereinG1722+G3739 in time pastG4218 ye walkedG4043 according toG2596 the courseG165 of thisG5127 worldG2889, according toG2596 the princeG758 of the powerG1849 of the airG109, the spiritG4151 that nowG3568 workethG1754 inG1722 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543:
AmongG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 weG2249 allG3956 had our conversationG390 in times pastG4218 inG1722 the lustsG1939 of ourG2257 fleshG4561, fulfillingG4160 the desiresG2307 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 of the mindG1271; andG2532 wereG2258 by natureG5449 the childrenG5043 of wrathG3709, evenG2532 asG5613 othersG3062. {desires: Gr. wills}
ButG1161 GodG2316, who isG5607 richG4145 inG1722 mercyG1656, forG1223 hisG846 greatG4183 loveG26 wherewithG3739 he lovedG25 usG2248,
EvenG2532 when weG2248 wereG5607 deadG3498 in sinsG3900, hath quickened us together withG4806 ChristG5547, (by graceG5485 ye areG2075 savedG4982;) {by…: or, by whose grace}
AndG2532 hath raised us up togetherG4891, andG2532 made us sit togetherG4776 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
ThatG2443 inG1722 the agesG165 to comeG1904 he might shewG1731 the exceedingG5235 richesG4149 of hisG846 graceG5485 inG1722 his kindnessG5544 towardG1909 usG2248 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
ForG1063 by graceG5485 are yeG2075 savedG4982 throughG1223 faithG4102; andG2532 thatG5124 notG3756 ofG1537 yourselvesG5216: it is the giftG1435 of GodG2316:
NotG3756 ofG1537 worksG2041, lestG3363 any manG5100 should boastG2744.
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}
WhereforeG1352 rememberG3421, thatG3754 yeG5210 being in time pastG4218 GentilesG1484 inG1722 the fleshG4561, whoG3588 are calledG3004 UncircumcisionG203 byG5259 that whichG3588 is calledG3004 the CircumcisionG4061 inG1722 the fleshG4561 made by handsG5499;
ThatG3754 atG1722 thatG1565 timeG2540 ye wereG2258 withoutG5565 ChristG5547, being aliensG526 from the commonwealthG4174 of IsraelG2474, andG2532 strangersG3581 from the covenantsG1242 of promiseG1860, havingG2192 noG3361 hopeG1680, andG2532 without GodG112 inG1722 the worldG2889:
ButG1161 nowG3570 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 yeG5210 whoG3588 sometimesG4218 wereG5607 far offG3112 are madeG1096 nighG1451 byG1722 the bloodG129 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 heG846 isG2076 ourG2257 peaceG1515, whoG3588 hath madeG4160 bothG297 oneG1520, andG2532 hath broken downG3089 the middle wallG3320 of partitionG5418 between us;
Having abolishedG2673 inG1722 hisG846 fleshG4561 the enmityG2189, even the lawG3551 of commandmentsG1785 contained inG1722 ordinancesG1378; for toG2443 makeG2936 inG1722 himselfG1438 of twainG1417 oneG1519+G1520 newG2537 manG444, so makingG4160 peaceG1515;
AndG2532 that he might reconcileG604 bothG297 unto GodG2316 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983 byG1223 the crossG4716, having slainG615 the enmityG2189 therebyG1722+G846: {thereby: or, in himself}
AndG2532 cameG2064 and preachedG2097 peaceG1515 to youG5213 whichG3588 were afar offG3112, andG2532 to them that were nighG1451.
ForG3754 throughG1223 himG846 weG2192 bothG297 haveG2192 accessG4318 byG1722 oneG1520 SpiritG4151 untoG4314 the FatherG3962.
NowG3767 thereforeG686 ye areG2075 no moreG3765 strangersG3581 andG2532 foreignersG3941, butG235 fellowcitizensG4847 with the saintsG40, andG2532 of the householdG3609 of GodG2316;
And are builtG2026 uponG1909 the foundationG2310 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846 beingG5607 the chief cornerG204 stone;
InG1722 whomG3739 allG3956 the buildingG3619 fitly framed togetherG4883 growethG837 untoG1519 an holyG40 templeG3485 inG1722 the LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 yeG5210 alsoG2532 are builded togetherG4925 forG1519 an habitationG2732 of GodG2316 throughG1722 the SpiritG4151.
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.
WivesG1135, submit yourselvesG5293 unto your ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto the LordG2962.
ForG3754 the husbandG435 isG2076 the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the churchG1577: andG2532 heG846 isG2076 the saviourG4990 of the bodyG4983.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG435 to loveG25 theirG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 their ownG1438 bodiesG4983. He that lovethG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 lovethG25 himselfG1438.
ForG1063 no manG3762 ever yetG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561; butG235 nourishethG1625 andG2532 cherishethG2282 itG846, even asG2531+G2532 the LordG2962 the churchG1577:
ForG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 of hisG846 bodyG4983, ofG1537 hisG846 fleshG4561, andG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 bonesG3747.
ForG473 this causeG5127 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 hisG846 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384, andG2532 shall be joinedG4347 untoG4314 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 they twoG1417 shall beG2071 oneG1519+G3391 fleshG4561.
ThisG5124 isG2076 a greatG3173 mysteryG3466: butG1161 IG1473 speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 andG1519+G2532 the churchG1577.
NeverthelessG4133+G2532 letG25 every oneG1520+G1538 of youG5210 in particularG2596 soG3779 loveG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 even asG5613 himselfG1438; andG1161 the wifeG1135 see thatG2443 she reverenceG5399 her husbandG435.
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.
FurthermoreG3063 thenG3767 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, andG2532 exhortG3870 you byG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, that asG2531 ye have receivedG3880 ofG3844 usG2257 howG4459 yeG5209 oughtG1163 to walkG4043 andG2532 to pleaseG700 GodG2316, soG2443 ye would aboundG4052 more and moreG3123. {beseech: or, request} {exhort: or, beseech}
ForG1063 ye knowG1492 whatG5101 commandmentsG3852 we gaveG1325 youG5213 byG1223 the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
ForG1063 thisG5124 isG2076 the willG2307 of GodG2316, even yourG5216 sanctificationG38, that yeG5209 should abstainG567 fromG575 fornicationG4202:
That every oneG1538 of youG5216 should knowG1492 how to possessG2932 hisG1438 vesselG4632 inG1722 sanctificationG38 andG2532 honourG5092;
NotG3361 inG1722 the lustG3806 of concupiscenceG1939, evenG2532 asG2509 the GentilesG1484 whichG3588 knowG1492 notG3361 GodG2316:
That noG3361 man go beyondG5233 andG2532 defraudG4122 hisG846 brotherG80 inG1722 any matterG4229: becauseG1360 that the LordG2962 is the avengerG1558 ofG4012 allG3956 suchG5130, asG2531 weG4277 alsoG2532 have forewarnedG4277 youG5213 andG2532 testifiedG1263. {defraud: or, oppress, or, overreach} {in…: or, in the matter}
ForG1063 GodG2316 hathG2564 notG3756 calledG2564 usG2248 untoG1909 uncleannessG167, butG235 untoG1722 holinessG38.
He thereforeG5105 that despisethG114, despisethG114 notG3756 manG444, butG235 GodG2316, who hathG1325 alsoG2532 givenG1325 untoG1519 usG2248 hisG846 holyG40 SpiritG4151. {despiseth: or, rejecteth}
ButG1161 as touchingG4012 brotherly loveG5360 ye needG2192+G5532 notG3756 that I writeG1125 unto youG5213: forG1063 yeG5210 yourselvesG846 areG2075 taught of GodG2312 toG1519 loveG25 one anotherG240.
AndG2532 indeedG1063 ye doG4160 itG846 towardG1519 allG3956 the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are inG1722 allG3650 MacedoniaG3109: butG1161 we beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, that ye increaseG4052 more and moreG3123;
AndG2532 that ye studyG5389 to be quietG2270, andG2532 to doG4238 your own businessG2398, andG2532 to work withG2038 yourG5216 ownG2398 handsG5495, asG2531 we commandedG3853 youG5213;
ThatG2443 ye may walkG4043 honestlyG2156 towardG4314 them that are withoutG1854, andG2532 that ye may haveG2192 lackG5532 of nothingG3367. {of…: or, of no man}
ButG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG2309 youG5209 to be ignorantG50, brethrenG80, concerningG4012 them which are asleepG2837, thatG3363 ye sorrowG3076 notG3363, evenG2532 asG2531 othersG3062 whichG3588 haveG2192 noG3361 hopeG1680.
ForG1063 ifG1487 we believeG4100 thatG3754 JesusG2424 diedG599 andG2532 rose againG450, even soG3779 them alsoG2532 which sleepG2837 inG1223 JesusG2424 willG71 GodG2316 bringG71 withG4862 himG846.
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}
InG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we have obtained an inheritanceG2820, being predestinatedG4309 according toG2596 the purposeG4286 of him who workethG1754 all thingsG3956 afterG2596 the counselG1012 of his ownG846 willG2307:
For, behold, the dayH3117 comethH935, that shall burnH1197 as an ovenH8574; and all the proudH2086, yea, and all that doH6213 wickedlyH7564, shall be stubbleH7179: and the dayH3117 that comethH935 shall burn them upH3857, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, that it shall leaveH5800 them neither rootH8328 nor branchH6057.
