Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 left IG2641 theeG4571 inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest set in orderG1930 the things that are wantingG3007, andG2532 ordainG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 had appointedG1299 theeG4671: {wanting: or, left undone}
ForG1063 a bishopG1985 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG410, asG5613 the stewardG3623 of GodG2316; notG3361 selfwilledG829, notG3361 soon angryG3711, notG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 given to filthy lucreG146;
PaulG3972 andG2532 TimotheusG5095, the servantsG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to allG3956 the saintsG40 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 which areG5607 atG1722 PhilippiG5375, withG4862 the bishopsG1985 andG2532 deaconsG1249:
GraceG5485 be unto youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 from the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
I thankG2168 myG3450 GodG2316 uponG1909 everyG3956 remembranceG3417 of youG5216, {remembrance: or, mention}
AlwaysG3842 inG1722 everyG3956 prayerG1162 of mineG3450 forG5228 youG5216 allG3956 makingG4160 requestG1162 withG3326 joyG5479,
ForG1909 yourG5216 fellowshipG2842 inG1519 the gospelG2098 fromG575 the firstG4413 dayG2250 untilG891 nowG3568;
Being confidentG3982 of thisG5124 very thingG846, thatG3754 he which hath begunG1728 a goodG18 workG2041 inG1722 youG5213 will performG2005 it untilG891 the dayG2250 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {perform: or, finish}
Even asG2531 it isG2076 meetG1342 for meG1698 to thinkG5426 thisG5124 ofG5228 youG5216 allG3956, becauseG1223 I haveG2192 youG5209 inG1722 myG3165 heartG2588; inasmuch as bothG5037 inG1722 myG3450 bondsG1199, andG2532 in the defenceG627 andG2532 confirmationG951 of the gospelG2098, yeG5209 allG3956 areG5607 partakersG4791 of myG3450 graceG5485. {I have…: or, ye have me in your heart} {of my…: or, with me of grace}
ForG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 myG3450 recordG3144, howG5613 greatly I long afterG1971 youG5209 allG3956 inG1722 the bowelsG4698 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 thisG5124 I prayG4336, thatG2443 yourG5216 loveG26 may aboundG4052 yetG2089 moreG3123 andG2532 moreG3123 inG1722 knowledgeG1922 andG2532 in allG3956 judgmentG144; {judgment: or, sense}
ThatG1519 yeG5209 may approveG1381 things that are excellentG1308; thatG2443 ye may beG5600 sincereG1506 andG2532 without offenceG677 tillG1519 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547; {approve: or, try} {are…: or, differ}
Being filledG4137 with the fruitsG2590 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3588 are byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, untoG1519 the gloryG1391 andG2532 praiseG1868 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 I wouldG1014 yeG5209 should understandG1097, brethrenG80, thatG3754 the things which happened untoG2596 meG1691 have fallen outG2064 ratherG3123 untoG1519 the furtheranceG4297 of the gospelG2098;
So thatG5620 myG3450 bondsG1199 inG1722 ChristG5547 areG1096 manifestG5318 inG1722 allG3650 the palaceG4232, andG2532 in allG3956 otherG3062 places; {in Christ: or, for Christ} {the palace: or, Caesar's court} {in all other…: or, to all others}
AndG2532 manyG4119 of the brethrenG80 inG1722 the LordG2962, waxing confidentG3982 by myG3450 bondsG1199, are much moreG4056 boldG5111 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 without fearG870.
SomeG5100 indeedG3303 preachG2784 ChristG5547 evenG2532 ofG1223 envyG5355 andG2532 strifeG2054; andG1161 someG5100 alsoG2532 ofG1223 good willG2107:
The oneG3303 preachG2605 ChristG5547 ofG1537 contentionG2052, notG3756 sincerelyG55, supposingG3633 to addG2018 afflictionG2347 to myG3450 bondsG1199:
ButG1161 the other ofG1537 loveG26, knowingG1492 thatG3754 I am setG2749 forG1519 the defenceG627 of the gospelG2098.
WhatG5101 thenG1063? notwithstandingG4133, everyG3956 wayG5158, whetherG1535 in pretenceG4392, orG1535 in truthG225, ChristG5547 is preachedG2605; andG2532 IG5463 thereinG1722+G5129 do rejoiceG5463, yeaG235, andG2532 will rejoiceG5463.
ForG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG5124 shall turnG576 toG1519 myG3427 salvationG4991 throughG1223 yourG5216 prayerG1162, andG2532 the supplyG2024 of the SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
AccordingG2596 to myG3450 earnest expectationG603 andG2532 my hopeG1680, thatG3754 inG1722 nothingG3762 I shall be ashamedG153, butG235 that withG1722 allG3956 boldnessG3954, asG5613 alwaysG3842, so nowG3568 alsoG2532 ChristG5547 shall be magnifiedG3170 inG1722 myG3450 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 it be byG1223 lifeG2222, orG1535 byG1223 deathG2288.
ForG1063 to meG1698 to liveG2198 is ChristG5547, andG2532 to dieG599 is gainG2771.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561, thisG5124 is the fruitG2590 of my labourG2041+G3427: yetG2532 whatG5101 I shall chooseG138 I wotG1107 notG3756.
ForG1063 I am in a straitG4912 betwixtG1537 twoG1417, havingG2192 a desireG1939 toG1519 departG360, andG2532 to beG1511 withG4862 ChristG5547; which is farG4183+G3123 betterG2908:
NeverthelessG1161 to abideG1961 inG1722 the fleshG4561 is more needfulG316 forG1223 youG5209.
AndG2532 having thisG5124 confidenceG3982, I knowG1492 thatG3754 I shall abideG3306 andG2532 continueG4839 with youG5213 allG3956 forG1519 yourG5216 furtheranceG4297 andG2532 joyG5479 of faithG4102;
ThatG2443 yourG5216 rejoicingG2745 may be more abundantG4052 inG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1722 meG1698 byG1223 myG1699 comingG3952 toG4314 youG5209 againG3825.
OnlyG3440 let your conversation beG4176 as it becomethG516 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: thatG2443 whetherG1535 I comeG2064 andG2532 seeG1492 youG5209, orG1535 else be absentG548, I may hearG191 of yourG5216 affairsG4012, thatG3754 ye stand fastG4739 inG1722 oneG1520 spiritG4151, with oneG3391 mindG5590 striving togetherG4866 for the faithG4102 of the gospelG2098;
AndG2532 inG1722 nothingG3367+G3361 terrifiedG4426 byG5259 your adversariesG480: whichG3748 isG2076 to themG846+G3303 an evident tokenG1732 of perditionG684, butG1161 to youG5213 of salvationG4991, andG2532 thatG5124 ofG575 GodG2316.
ForG3754 unto youG5213 it is givenG5483 in the behalfG5228 of ChristG5547, notG3756 onlyG3440 to believeG4100 onG1519 himG846, butG235 alsoG2532 to sufferG3958 forG5228 his sakeG846+G5228;
HavingG2192 the sameG846 conflictG73 whichG3634 ye sawG1492 inG1722 meG1698, andG2532 nowG3568 hearG191 to be inG1722 meG1698.
AndG2532 these thingsG5023 give in chargeG3853, thatG2443 they may beG5600 blamelessG423.
That thouG4571 keepG5083 this commandmentG1785 without spotG784, unrebukeableG423, untilG3360 the appearingG2015 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
Even soG5615 must their wivesG1135 be graveG4586, notG3361 slanderersG1228, soberG3524, faithfulG4103 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
That the aged menG4246 beG1511 soberG3524, graveG4586, temperateG4998, soundG5198 in faithG4102, in charityG26, in patienceG5281. {sober: or, vigilant}
ThereforeG686+G3767 let usG2518 notG3361 sleepG2518, asG5613+G2532 do othersG3062; butG235 let us watchG1127 andG2532 be soberG3525.
ButG1161 letG3525 usG2249, who areG5607 of the dayG2250, be soberG3525, putting onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26; andG2532 for an helmetG4030, the hopeG1680 of salvationG4991.
ButG235 a lover of hospitalityG5382, a lover of good menG5358, soberG4998, justG1342, holyG3741, temperateG1468; {men: or, things}
That the aged menG4246 beG1511 soberG3524, graveG4586, temperateG4998, soundG5198 in faithG4102, in charityG26, in patienceG5281. {sober: or, vigilant}
To be discreetG4998, chasteG53, keepers at homeG3626, goodG18, obedientG5293 to their ownG2398 husbandsG435, thatG3363 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 beG987 notG3363 blasphemedG987.
In like mannerG5615 alsoG2532, that womenG1135 adornG2885 themselvesG1438 inG1722 modestG2887 apparelG2689, withG3326 shamefacednessG127 andG2532 sobrietyG4997; notG3361 withG1722 broided hairG4117, orG2228 goldG5557, orG2228 pearlsG3135, orG2228 costlyG4185 arrayG2441; {broided: or, plaited}
DistributingG2841 to the necessityG5532 of saintsG40; givenG1377 to hospitalityG5381.
ButG235 a lover of hospitalityG5382, a lover of good menG5358, soberG4998, justG1342, holyG3741, temperateG1468; {men: or, things}
Use hospitalityG5382 one to anotherG1519+G240 withoutG427 grudgingG1112.
A bishopG1985 thenG3767 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG423, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, vigilantG3524, soberG4998, of good behaviourG2887, given to hospitalityG5382, apt to teachG1317; {of good…: or, modest}
AndG1161 the servantG1401 of the LordG2962 mustG1163 notG3756 striveG3164; butG235 beG1511 gentleG2261 untoG4314 allG3956 men, apt to teachG1317, patientG420, {patient: or, forbearing}
