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.
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, The hourG5610 is comingG2064, andG2532 nowG3568 isG2076, whenG3753 the deadG3498 shall hearG191 the voiceG5456 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316: andG2532 they that hearG191 shall liveG2198.
EvenG2532 when weG2248 wereG5607 deadG3498 in sinsG3900, hath quickened us together withG4806 ChristG5547, (by graceG5485 ye areG2075 savedG4982;) {by…: or, by whose grace}
AndG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 is comeG2240, andG2532 hath givenG1325 usG2254 an understandingG1271, thatG2443 we may knowG1097 him that is trueG228, andG2532 we areG2070 inG1722 him that is trueG228, even inG1722 hisG846 SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. ThisG3778 isG2076 the trueG228 GodG2316, andG2532 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
But unto the wickedH7563 GodH430 saithH559, What hast thou to do to declareH5608 my statutesH2706, or that thou shouldest takeH5375 my covenantH1285 in thy mouthH6310?
Seeing thou hatestH8130 instructionH4148, and castestH7993 my wordsH1697 behindH310 thee.
PaulG3972, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 throughG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 SosthenesG4988 our brotherG80,
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.
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.
MoreoverG1161, brethrenG80, I declareG1107 unto youG5213 the gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachedG2097 unto youG5213, whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye have receivedG3880, andG2532 whereinG1722+G3739 ye standG2476;
ByG1223 whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are savedG4982, ifG1487 ye keepG2722 in memory whatG5101+G3056 I preachedG2097 unto youG5213, unlessG1622+G1508 ye have believedG4100 in vainG1500. {keep…: or, hold fast} {what: Gr. by what speech}
ForG1063 I deliveredG3860 unto youG5213 first of allG1722+G4413 that whichG3739 IG3880 alsoG2532 receivedG3880, howG3754 that ChristG5547 diedG599 forG5228 ourG2257 sinsG266 accordingG2596 to the scripturesG1124;
AndG2532 thatG3754 he was buriedG2290, andG2532 thatG3754 he rose againG1453 the thirdG5154 dayG2250 accordingG2596 to the scripturesG1124:
AndG2532 thatG3754 he was seenG3700 of CephasG2786, thenG1534 of the twelveG1427:
After thatG1899, he was seenG3700 of aboveG1883 five hundredG4001 brethrenG80 at onceG2178; ofG1537 whomG3739 the greater partG4119 remainG3306 untoG2193 this presentG737, butG1161 someG5100+G2532 are fallen asleepG2837.
After thatG1899, he was seenG3700 of JamesG2385; thenG1534 of allG3956 the apostlesG652.
AndG1161 lastG2078 of allG3956 he was seenG3700 of me alsoG2504, asG5619 of one born out of due timeG1626. {one…: or, an abortive}
ForG1063 IG1473 amG1510 the leastG1646 of the apostlesG652, thatG3739 amG1510 notG3756 meetG2425 to be calledG2564 an apostleG652, becauseG1360 I persecutedG1377 the churchG1577 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 by the graceG5485 of GodG2316 I amG1510 whatG3739 I amG1510: andG2532 hisG846 graceG5485 which was bestowed uponG1519 meG1691 wasG1096 notG3756 in vainG2756; butG235 I labouredG2872 more abundantlyG4054 than theyG846 allG3956: yetG1161 notG3756 IG1473, butG235 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 whichG3588 was withG4862 meG1698.
ThereforeG3767 whetherG1535 it were IG1473 orG1535 theyG1565, soG3779 we preachG2784, andG2532 soG3779 ye believedG4100.
NowG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 be preachedG2784 thatG3754 he roseG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, howG4459 sayG3004 someG5100 amongG1722 youG5213 thatG3754 there isG2076 noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498?
ButG1161 ifG1487 there beG2076 noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, thenG3761 isG1453 ChristG5547 notG3761 risenG1453:
AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 beG1453 notG3756 risenG1453, thenG686 is ourG2257 preachingG2782 vainG2756, andG2532 yourG5216 faithG4102 isG1161 alsoG2532 vainG2756.
YeaG1161, andG2532 we are foundG2147 false witnessesG5575 of GodG2316; becauseG3754 we have testifiedG3140 ofG2596 GodG2316 thatG3754 he raised upG1453 ChristG5547: whomG3739 he raisedG1453 notG3756 upG1453, ifG1512 so beG686 that the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756.
ForG1063 ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756, then isG1453 notG3761 ChristG5547 raisedG1453:
AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 beG1453 notG3756 raisedG1453, yourG5216 faithG4102 is vainG3152; ye areG2075 yetG2089 inG1722 yourG5216 sinsG266.
ThenG686 they alsoG2532 which are fallen asleepG2837 inG1722 ChristG5547 are perishedG622.
IfG1487 inG1722 thisG5026 lifeG2222 onlyG3440 we have hopeG1679+G2070 inG1722 ChristG5547, we areG2070 of allG3956 menG444 most miserableG1652.
ButG1161 nowG3570 isG1453 ChristG5547 risenG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, and becomeG1096 the firstfruitsG536 of them that sleptG2837.
ForG1063 sinceG1894 byG1223 manG444 came deathG2288, byG1223 manG444 came alsoG2532 the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498.
ForG1063 asG5618 inG1722 AdamG76 allG3956 dieG599, evenG2532 soG3779 inG1722 ChristG5547 shallG2227 allG3956 be made aliveG2227.
ButG1161 every manG1538 inG1722 his ownG2398 orderG5001: ChristG5547 the firstfruitsG536; afterwardG1899 they that areG3588 Christ'sG5547 atG1722 hisG846 comingG3952.
ThenG1534 cometh the endG5056, whenG3752 he shall have delivered upG3860 the kingdomG932 to GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; whenG3752 he shall have put downG2673 allG3956 ruleG746 andG2532 allG3956 authorityG1849 andG2532 powerG1411.
ForG1063 heG846 mustG1163 reignG936, tillG891+G3739 he hath putG302+G5087 allG3956 enemiesG2190 underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228.
The lastG2078 enemyG2190 that shall be destroyedG2673 is deathG2288.
ForG1063 he hath putG5293 all thingsG3956 underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228. ButG1161 whenG3752 he saithG2036+G3754, all thingsG3956 are put underG5293 him, it is manifestG1212 thatG3754 he is exceptedG1622, which did putG5293 all thingsG3956 underG5293 himG846.
AndG1161 whenG3752 all thingsG3956 shall be subduedG5293 unto himG846, thenG5119 shallG5293 the SonG5207 alsoG2532 himselfG846 be subjectG5293 unto him that putG5293 all thingsG3956 underG5293 himG846, thatG2443 GodG2316 may beG5600 allG3956 inG1722 allG3956.
ElseG1893 whatG5101 shall they doG4160 which are baptizedG907 forG5228 the deadG3498, ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756 at allG3654? whyG5101+G2532 are they then baptizedG907 forG5228 the deadG3498?
AndG2532 whyG5101 standG2793 weG2249 in jeopardyG2793 everyG3956 hourG5610?
I protest byG3513 yourG5212 rejoicingG2251+G2746 whichG3739 I haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962, I dieG599 dailyG2596+G2250. {your: some read, our}
IfG1487 after the mannerG2596 of menG444 I have fought with beastsG2341 atG1722 EphesusG2181, whatG5101 advantageth itG3786 meG3427, ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756? let us eatG5315 andG2532 drinkG4095; forG1063 to morrowG839 we dieG599. {after…: or, to speak after the manner of men}
BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: evilG2556 communicationsG3657 corruptG5351 goodG5543 mannersG2239.
AwakeG1594 to righteousnessG1346, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361; forG1063 someG5100 haveG2192 not the knowledgeG56 of GodG2316: I speakG3004 this toG4314 yourG5213 shameG1791.
ButG235 someG5100 man will sayG2046, HowG4459 areG1453 the deadG3498 raised upG1453? andG1161 with whatG4169 bodyG4983 do they comeG2064?
Thou foolG878, that whichG3739 thouG4771 sowestG4687 isG2227 notG3756 quickenedG2227, exceptG3362 it dieG599:
AndG2532 that whichG3739 thou sowestG4687, thou sowestG4687 notG3756 that bodyG4983 that shall beG1096, butG235 bareG1131 grainG2848, it may chanceG1487+G5177 of wheatG4621, orG2228 of someG5100 otherG3062 grain:
ButG1161 GodG2316 givethG1325 itG846 a bodyG4983 asG2531 it hath pleased himG2309, andG2532 to everyG1538 seedG4690 his ownG2398 bodyG4983.
AllG3956 fleshG4561 is notG3756 the sameG846 fleshG4561: butG235+G3303 there is oneG243 kind of fleshG4561 of menG444+G1161, anotherG243 fleshG4561 of beastsG2934+G1161, anotherG243 of fishesG2486, andG1161 anotherG243 of birdsG4421.
There are alsoG2532 celestialG2032 bodiesG4983, andG2532 bodiesG4983 terrestrialG1919: butG235+G3303 the gloryG1391 of the celestialG2032 is oneG2087, andG1161 the glory of the terrestrialG1919 is anotherG2087.
There is oneG243 gloryG1391 of the sunG2246, andG2532 anotherG243 gloryG1391 of the moonG4582, andG2532 anotherG243 gloryG1391 of the starsG792: forG1063 one starG792 differeth fromG1308 another starG792 inG1722 gloryG1391.
SoG3779 alsoG2532 is the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498. It is sownG4687 inG1722 corruptionG5356; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 incorruptionG861:
It is sownG4687 inG1722 dishonourG819; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 gloryG1391: it is sownG4687 inG1722 weaknessG769; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 powerG1411:
It is sownG4687 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983; it is raisedG1453 a spiritualG4152 bodyG4983. There isG2076 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983, andG2532 there isG2076 a spiritualG4152 bodyG4983.
AndG2532 soG3779 it is writtenG1125, The firstG4413 manG444 AdamG76 was madeG1096+G1519 a livingG2198 soulG5590; the lastG2078 AdamG76 was madeG1519 a quickeningG2227 spiritG4151.
HowbeitG235 that was notG3756 firstG4412 which is spiritualG4152, butG235 that which is naturalG5591; and afterwardG1899 that which is spiritualG4152.
The firstG4413 manG444 is ofG1537 the earthG1093, earthyG5517: the secondG1208 manG444 is the LordG2962 fromG1537 heavenG3772.
AsG3634 is the earthyG5517, suchG5108 are they alsoG2532 that are earthyG5517: andG2532 as isG3634 the heavenlyG2032, suchG5108 are theyG2032 alsoG2532 that are heavenlyG2032.
AndG2532 asG2531 we have borneG5409 the imageG1504 of the earthyG5517, we shallG5409 alsoG2532 bearG5409 the imageG1504 of the heavenlyG2032.
NowG1161 thisG5124 I sayG5346, brethrenG80, thatG3754 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129 cannotG3756+G1410 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316; neitherG3761 dothG2816 corruptionG5356 inheritG2816 incorruptionG861.
BeholdG2400, I shewG3004 youG5213 a mysteryG3466; We shallG2837 notG3756 allG3956+G3303 sleepG2837, butG1161 we shallG236 allG3956 be changedG236,
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 corruptibleG5349 mustG1163 put onG1746 incorruptionG861, andG2532 thisG5124 mortalG2349 must put onG1746 immortalityG110.
SoG1161 whenG3752 thisG5124 corruptibleG5349 shall have put onG1746 incorruptionG861, andG2532 thisG5124 mortalG2349 shall have put onG1746 immortalityG110, thenG5119 shall be brought to passG1096 the sayingG3056 that is writtenG1125, DeathG2288 is swallowed upG2666 inG1519 victoryG3534.
O deathG2288, whereG4226 is thyG4675 stingG2759? O graveG86, whereG4226 is thyG4675 victoryG3534? {grave: or, hell}
The stingG2759 of deathG2288 is sinG266; andG1161 the strengthG1411 of sinG266 is the lawG3551.
ButG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, whichG3588 givethG1325 usG2254 the victoryG3534 throughG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
ThereforeG5620, myG3450 belovedG27 brethrenG80, be yeG1096 stedfastG1476, unmoveableG277, alwaysG3842 aboundingG4052 inG1722 the workG2041 of the LordG2962, forasmuch as ye knowG1492 thatG3754 yourG5216 labourG2873 isG2076 notG3756 in vainG2756 inG1722 the LordG2962.
ThereforeG3767 letG1097 allG3956 the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 knowG1097 assuredlyG806, thatG3754 GodG2316 hath madeG4160 that sameG5126 JesusG2424, whomG3739 yeG5210 have crucifiedG4717, bothG2532 LordG2962 andG2532 ChristG5547.
OfG4012 sinG266+G3303, becauseG3754 they believeG4100 notG3756 onG1519 meG1691;
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, He that enterethG1525 notG3361 byG1223 the doorG2374 intoG1519 the sheepfoldG4263+G833, butG235 climbeth upG305 some other wayG237, the sameG1565 isG2076 a thiefG2812 andG2532 a robberG3027.
ButG1161 he that entereth inG1525 byG1223 the doorG2374 isG2076 the shepherdG4166 of the sheepG4263.
To himG5129 the porterG2377 openethG455; andG2532 the sheepG4263 hearG191 hisG846 voiceG5456: andG2532 he callethG2564 his ownG2398 sheepG4263 byG2596 nameG3686, andG2532 leadethG1806 themG846 outG1806.
AndG2532 whenG3752 he putteth forthG1544 his ownG2398 sheepG4263, he goethG4198 beforeG1715 themG846, andG2532 the sheepG4263 followG190 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 hisG846 voiceG5456.
AndG1161 a strangerG245 will theyG190 notG3364 followG190, butG235 will fleeG5343 fromG575 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 notG3756 the voiceG5456 of strangersG245.
ThisG5026 parableG3942 spakeG2036 JesusG2424 unto themG846: butG1161 theyG1565 understoodG1097 notG3756 what thingsG5101 they wereG2258 whichG3739 he spakeG2980 unto themG846.
ThenG3767 saidG2036 JesusG2424 unto themG846 againG3825, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, IG1473 amG1510 the doorG2374 of the sheepG4263.
AllG3956 that everG3745 cameG2064 beforeG4253 meG1700 areG1526 thievesG2812 andG2532 robbersG3027: butG235 the sheepG4263 didG191 notG3756 hearG191 themG846.
IG1473 amG1510 the doorG2374: byG1223 meG1700 ifG1437 any manG5100 enter inG1525, he shall be savedG4982, andG2532 shall go inG1525 andG2532 outG1831, andG2532 findG2147 pastureG3542.
The thiefG2812 comethG2064 notG3756, butG1508 for toG2443 stealG2813, andG2532 to killG2380, andG2532 to destroyG622: IG1473 am comeG2064 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 lifeG2222, andG2532 that they might haveG2192 it more abundantlyG4053.
IG1473 amG1510 the goodG2570 shepherdG4166: the goodG2570 shepherdG4166 givethG5087 hisG846 lifeG5590 forG5228 the sheepG4263.
ButG1161 he that isG5607 an hirelingG3411, andG2532 notG3756 the shepherdG4166, whoseG3739 ownG2398 the sheepG4263 areG1526 notG3756, seethG2334 the wolfG3074 comingG2064, andG2532 leavethG863 the sheepG4263, andG2532 fleethG5343: andG2532 the wolfG3074 catchethG726 themG846, andG2532 scatterethG4650 the sheepG4263.
The hirelingG3411 fleethG5343, becauseG3754 he isG2076 an hirelingG3411, andG2532+G846 carethG3199 notG3756 forG4012 the sheepG4263.
IG1473 amG1510 the goodG2570 shepherdG4166, andG2532 knowG1097 myG1699 sheep, andG2532 am knownG1097 ofG5259 mineG1699.
AsG2531 the FatherG3962 knowethG1097 meG3165, even soG2504 knowG1097 IG2504 the FatherG3962: andG2532 I lay downG5087 myG3450 lifeG5590 forG5228 the sheepG4263.
AndG2532 otherG243 sheepG4263 I haveG2192, whichG3739 areG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG5026 foldG833: them alsoG2548 IG3165 mustG1163 bringG71, andG2532 they shall hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456; andG2532 there shall beG1096 oneG3391 foldG4167, and oneG1520 shepherdG4166.
ThereforeG5124+G1223 dothG25 my FatherG3962 loveG25 meG3165, becauseG3754 IG1473 lay downG5087 myG3450 lifeG5590, thatG2443 I might takeG2983 itG846 againG3825.
No manG3762 takethG142 itG846 fromG575 meG1700, butG235 IG1473 layG5087 itG846 downG5087 ofG575 myselfG1683. I haveG2192 powerG1849 to layG5087 itG846 downG5087, andG2532 I haveG2192 powerG1849 to takeG2983 itG846 againG3825. ThisG5026 commandmentG1785 have I receivedG2983 ofG3844 myG3450 FatherG3962.
There wasG1096 a divisionG4978 thereforeG3767 againG3825 amongG1722 the JewsG2453 forG1223 theseG5128 sayingsG3056.
AndG1161 manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 saidG3004, He hathG2192 a devilG1140, andG2532 is madG3105; whyG5101 hear yeG191 himG846?
OthersG243 saidG3004, TheseG5023 areG2076 notG3756 the wordsG4487 of him that hath a devilG1139. CanG3361+G1410 a devilG1140 openG455 the eyesG3788 of the blindG5185?
AndG1161 it wasG1096 atG1722 JerusalemG2414 the feast of the dedicationG1456, andG2532 it wasG2258 winterG5494.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 walkedG4043 inG1722 the templeG2411 inG1722 Solomon'sG4672 porchG4745.
ThenG3767 cameG2944 the JewsG2453 round aboutG2944 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, How longG2193+G4219 dost thou makeG142 usG2257 to doubtG5590? IfG1487 thouG4771 beG1488 the ChristG5547, tellG2036 usG2254 plainlyG3954. {make…: or, hold us in suspense}
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, I toldG2036 youG5213, andG2532 ye believedG4100 notG3756: the worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160 inG1722 myG3450 Father'sG3962 nameG3686, theyG5023 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1700.
ButG235 yeG5210 believeG4100 notG3756, becauseG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 ofG1537 myG1699 sheepG4263, asG2531 I saidG2036 unto youG5213.
MyG1699 sheepG4263 hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456, and IG2504 knowG1097 themG846, andG2532 they followG190 meG3427:
And IG2504 giveG1325 unto themG846 eternalG166 lifeG2222; andG2532 they shallG622 neverG3364+G1519+G165 perishG622, neitherG2532+G3756 shallG726 anyG5100 man pluckG726 themG846 out ofG1537 myG3450 handG5495.
MyG3450 FatherG3962, whichG3739 gaveG1325 them meG3427, isG2076 greater thanG3187 allG3956; andG2532 noG3762 man is ableG1410 to pluckG726 them out ofG1537 myG3450 Father'sG3962 handG5495.
IG1473 andG2532 my FatherG3962 areG2070 oneG1520.
ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 took upG941 stonesG3037 againG3825 toG2443 stoneG3034 himG846.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, ManyG4183 goodG2570 worksG2041 have I shewedG1166 youG5213 fromG1537 myG3450 FatherG3962; forG1223 whichG4169 of thoseG846 worksG2041 do ye stoneG3034 meG3165?
The JewsG2453 answeredG611 himG846, sayingG3004, ForG4012 a goodG2570 workG2041 we stoneG3034 theeG4571 notG3756; butG235 forG4012 blasphemyG988; andG2532 becauseG3754 that thouG4771, beingG5607 a manG444, makestG4160 thyselfG4572 GodG2316.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, Is itG2076 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1722 yourG5216 lawG3551, IG1473 saidG2036, Ye areG2075 godsG2316?
IfG1487 he calledG2036 themG1565 godsG2316, untoG4314 whomG3739 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 cameG1096, andG2532 the scriptureG1124 cannotG3756+G1410 be brokenG3089;
SayG3004 yeG5210 of him, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 hath sanctifiedG37, andG2532 sentG649 intoG1519 the worldG2889+G3754, Thou blasphemestG987; becauseG3754 I saidG2036, I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316?
IfG1487 I doG4160 notG3756 the worksG2041 of myG3450 FatherG3962, believeG4100 meG3427 notG3361.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I doG4160, thoughG2579 ye believeG4100 notG3361 meG1698, believeG4100 the worksG2041: thatG2443 ye may knowG1097, andG2532 believeG4100, thatG3754 the FatherG3962 is inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846.
ThereforeG3767 they soughtG2212 againG3825 to takeG4084 himG846: butG2532 he escapedG1831 out ofG1537 theirG846 handG5495,
AndG2532 went awayG565 againG3825 beyondG4008 JordanG2446 intoG1519 the placeG5117 whereG3699 JohnG2491 at firstG4412 baptizedG907+G2258; andG2532 thereG1563 he abodeG3306.
AndG2532 manyG4183 resortedG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004+G3754, JohnG2491 didG4160 noG3303+G3762 miracleG4592: butG1161 all thingsG3956 thatG3745 JohnG2491 spakeG2036 ofG4012 this manG5127 wereG2258 trueG227.
AndG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846 thereG1563.
WhichG3739 noneG3762 of the princesG758 of thisG5127 worldG165 knewG1097: forG1487+G1063 had they knownG1097 it, theyG302 wouldG4717 notG3756 have crucifiedG4717 the LordG2962 of gloryG1391.
Be yeG1096 notG3361 unequally yoked togetherG2086 with unbelieversG571: forG1063 whatG5101 fellowshipG3352 hath righteousnessG1343 withG2532 unrighteousnessG458? andG1161 whatG5101 communionG2842 hath lightG5457 withG4314 darknessG4655?
AndG1161 whatG5101 concordG4857 hath ChristG5547 withG4314 BelialG955? orG2228 whatG5101 partG3310 hath he that believethG4103 withG3326 an infidelG571?
AndG1161 whatG5101 agreementG4783 hath the templeG3485 of GodG2316 withG3326 idolsG1497? forG1063 yeG5210 areG2075 the templeG3485 of the livingG2198 GodG2316; asG2531 GodG2316 hath saidG2036+G3754, I will dwellG1774 inG1722 themG846, andG2532 walk inG1704 them; andG2532 I will beG2071 theirG846 GodG2316, andG2532 theyG846 shall beG2071 myG3427 peopleG2992.
WhereforeG1352 come outG1831 fromG1537 amongG3319 themG846, andG2532 be ye separateG873, saithG3004 the LordG2962, andG2532 touchG680 notG3361 the uncleanG169 thing; andG2504 I will receiveG1523 youG5209,
AndG2532 will beG2071+G1519 a FatherG3962 unto youG5213, andG2532 yeG5210 shall beG2071 myG3427 sonsG5207+G1519 andG2532 daughtersG2364, saithG3004 the LordG2962 AlmightyG3841.
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
RenderG591 thereforeG3767 to allG3956 their duesG3782: tributeG5411 to whomG3588 tributeG5411 is due; customG5056 to whomG3588 customG5056; fearG5401 to whomG3588 fearG5401; honourG5092 to whomG3588 honourG5092.
ButG1161 thouG4771, OG5599 manG444 of GodG2316, fleeG5343 these thingsG5023; andG1161 follow afterG1377 righteousnessG1343, godlinessG2150, faithG4102, loveG26, patienceG5281, meeknessG4236.
ThatG2443 the manG444 of GodG2316 may beG5600 perfectG739, throughly furnishedG1822 untoG4314 allG3956 goodG18 worksG2041. {throughly…: or, perfected}
That IG3165 should beG1519+G1511 the ministerG3011 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316, thatG2443 the offering upG4376 of the GentilesG1484 might beG1096 acceptableG2144, being sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {offering up: or, sacrificing}
ButG1161 nowG3570 I goG4198 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 to ministerG1247 unto the saintsG40.
ThatG2443 I may be deliveredG4506 fromG575 them that do not believeG544 inG1722 JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thatG2443 myG3450 serviceG1248 whichG3588 I have forG1519 JerusalemG2419 may beG1096 acceptedG2144 of the saintsG40; {do not…: or, are disobedient}
ThatG2443 I may comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 withG1722 joyG5479 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 mayG4875 with youG5213 be refreshedG4875.
ButG235 I keep underG5299 myG3450 bodyG4983, andG2532 bring it into subjectionG1396: lest that by any meansG3381+G4458, when I have preachedG2784 to othersG243, I myselfG846 should beG1096 a castawayG96.
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.
Therefore seeingG1223+G5124 we haveG2192 thisG5026 ministryG1248, asG2531 we have received mercyG1653, we faintG1573 notG3756;
ButG235 have renouncedG550 the hidden thingsG2927 of dishonestyG152, notG3361 walkingG4043 inG1722 craftinessG3834, norG3366 handlingG1389 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 deceitfullyG1389; butG235 by manifestationG5321 of the truthG225 commendingG4921 ourselvesG1438 toG4314 everyG3956 man'sG444 conscienceG4893 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316. {dishonesty: Gr. shame}
ButG1161 ifG1499 ourG2257 gospelG2098 beG2076 hidG2572, it isG2076 hidG2572 toG1722 them that are lostG622:
InG1722 whomG3739 the godG2316 of thisG5127 worldG165 hath blindedG5186 the mindsG3540 of them which believe notG571, lestG1519+G3361 the lightG5462 of the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of GodG2316, should shineG826 unto themG846.
ForG1063 we preachG2784 notG3756 ourselvesG1438, butG235 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 the LordG2962; andG1161 ourselvesG1438 yourG5216 servantsG1401 forG1223 Jesus'G2424 sakeG1223.
ForG3754 GodG2316, whoG3588 commandedG2036 the lightG5457 to shineG2989 out ofG1537 darknessG4655+G3739, hath shinedG2989 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588, toG4314 give the lightG5462 of the knowledgeG1108 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 inG1722 the faceG4383 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {hath: Gr. is he who hath}
Now the LORDH3068 had saidH559 unto AbramH87, Get thee outH3212 of thy countryH776, and from thy kindredH4138, and from thy father'sH1 houseH1004, unto a landH776 that I will shewH7200 thee:
I sayG3004 the truthG225 inG1722 ChristG5547, I lieG5574 notG3756, myG3450 conscienceG4893 also bearingG4828 meG3427 witnessG4828 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
Do we beginG756 againG3825 to commendG4921 ourselvesG1438? orG1508 need weG5535, asG5613 someG5100 others, epistlesG1992 of commendationG4956 toG4314 youG5209, orG2228 letters of commendationG4956 fromG1537 youG5216?
YeG5210 areG2075 ourG2257 epistleG1992 writtenG1449 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588, knownG1097 andG2532 readG314 ofG5259 allG3956 menG444:
Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declaredG5319 toG3754 beG2075 the epistleG1992 of ChristG5547 ministeredG1247 byG5259 usG2257, writtenG1449 notG3756 with inkG3188, butG235 with the SpiritG4151 of the livingG2198 GodG2316; notG3756 inG1722 tablesG4109 of stoneG3035, butG235 inG1722 fleshyG4560 tablesG4109 of the heartG2588.
AndG1161 suchG5108 trustG4006 have weG2192 throughG1223 ChristG5547 toG4314 God-wardG2316:
NotG3756 thatG3754 we areG2070 sufficientG2425 ofG575 ourselvesG1438 to thinkG3049 any thingG5100 asG5613 ofG1537 ourselvesG1438; butG235 ourG2257 sufficiencyG2426 is ofG1537 GodG2316;
WhoG3739 alsoG2532 hath madeG2427 usG2248 ableG2427 ministersG1249 of the newG2537 testamentG1242; notG3756 of the letterG1121, butG235 of the spiritG4151: forG1063 the letterG1121 killethG615, butG1161 the spiritG4151 giveth lifeG2227. {giveth life: or, quickeneth}
ButG1161 ifG1487 the ministrationG1248 of deathG2288, writtenG1722+G1121 and engravenG1795 inG1722 stonesG3037, wasG1096 gloriousG1722+G1391, soG5620 that the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 couldG1410 notG3361 stedfastly beholdG816 the faceG1519+G4383 of MosesG3475 forG1223 the gloryG1391 of hisG846 countenanceG4383; whichG3588 glory was to be done awayG2673:
HowG4459 shallG1248 notG3780 the ministrationG1248 of the spiritG4151 beG2071 ratherG3123+G1722 gloriousG1391?
ForG1063 ifG1487 the ministrationG1248 of condemnationG2633 be gloryG1391, muchG4183 moreG3123 doth the ministrationG1248 of righteousnessG1343 exceedG4052 inG1722 gloryG1391.
ForG1063 evenG2532 that which was made gloriousG1392 had noG3761 gloryG1392 inG1722 thisG5129 respectG3313, by reasonG1752 of the gloryG1391 that excellethG5235.
ForG1063 ifG1487 that which is done awayG2673 was gloriousG1223+G1391, muchG4183 moreG3123 that which remainethG3306 is gloriousG1722+G1391.
Seeing thenG3767 that we haveG2192 suchG5108 hopeG1680, we useG5530 greatG4183 plainness of speechG3954: {plainness: or, boldness}
AndG2532 notG3756 asG2509 MosesG3475, which putG5087 a vailG2571 overG1909 hisG1438 faceG4383, thatG4314 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 couldG816 notG3361 stedfastly lookG816 toG1519 the endG5056 of that which is abolishedG2673:
ButG235 theirG846 mindsG3540 were blindedG4456: forG1063 untilG891 this dayG4594 remainethG3306 the sameG846 vailG2571 untakenG3361 awayG343 inG1909 the readingG320 of the oldG3820 testamentG1242; whichG3748 vail is done awayG2673 inG1722 ChristG5547.
ButG235 evenG2193 unto this dayG4594, whenG2259 MosesG3475 is readG314, the vailG2571 is uponG2749+G1909 theirG846 heartG2588.
NeverthelessG1161 whenG2259 itG302 shall turnG1994 toG4314 the LordG2962, the vailG2571 shall be taken awayG4014.
NowG1161 the LordG2962 isG2076 that SpiritG4151: andG1161 whereG3757 the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 is, thereG1563 is libertyG1657.
ButG1161 weG2249 allG3956, with openG343 faceG4383 beholding as in a glassG2734 the gloryG1391 of the LordG2962, are changedG3339 into the sameG846 imageG1504 fromG575 gloryG1391 toG1519 gloryG1391, even asG2509 byG575 the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962. {by the…: or, of the Lord the Spirit}
NeitherG3761 went I upG424 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 toG4314 them which were apostlesG652 beforeG4253 meG1700; butG235 I wentG565 intoG1519 ArabiaG688, andG2532 returnedG5290 againG3825 untoG1519 DamascusG1154.
Forasmuch as ye knowG1492 thatG3754 ye wereG3084 notG3756 redeemedG3084 with corruptible thingsG5349, as silverG694 andG2228 goldG5553, fromG1537 yourG5216 vainG3152 conversationG391 received by tradition from your fathersG3970;
He that hathG2192 myG3450 commandmentsG1785, andG2532 keepethG5083 themG846, heG1565 it isG2076 that lovethG25 meG3165: andG1161 he that lovethG25 meG3165 shall be lovedG25 ofG5259 myG3450 FatherG3962, andG2532 IG1473 will loveG25 himG846, andG2532 will manifestG1718 myselfG1683 to himG846.
ByG1722 thisG5129 we knowG1097 thatG3754 we loveG25 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316, whenG3752 we loveG25 GodG2316, andG2532 keepG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG1785.
AndG2532 he that was deadG2348 came forthG1831, boundG1210 handG5495 andG2532 footG4228 with graveclothesG2750: andG2532 hisG846 faceG3799 was bound aboutG4019 with a napkinG4676. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, LooseG3089 himG846, andG2532 let himG863 goG5217.
Let everyG3956 soulG5590 be subjectG5293 unto the higherG5242 powersG1849. ForG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 powerG1849 butG1508 ofG575 GodG2316+G1161: the powersG1849 that beG5607 areG1526 ordainedG5021 ofG5259 GodG2316. {ordained: or, ordered}
Whosoever thereforeG5620 resistethG498 the powerG1849, resistethG436 the ordinanceG1296 of GodG2316: andG1161 they that resistG436 shall receiveG2983 to themselvesG1438 damnationG2917.
ForG1063 rulersG758 areG1526 notG3756 a terrorG5401 to goodG18 worksG2041, butG235 to the evilG2556. Wilt thouG2309 thenG1161 notG3361 be afraidG5399 of the powerG1849? doG4160 that which is goodG18, andG2532 thou shalt haveG2192 praiseG1868 ofG1537 the sameG846:
ForG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316 to theeG4671 forG1519 goodG18. ButG1161 ifG1437 thou doG4160 that which is evilG2556, be afraidG5399; forG1063 he bearethG5409 notG3756 the swordG3162 in vainG1500: forG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316, a revengerG1558 to execute wrathG3709 uponG1519 him that doethG4238 evilG2556.
WhereforeG1352 ye must needsG318 be subjectG5293, notG3756 onlyG3440 forG1223 wrathG3709, butG235 alsoG2532 for conscienceG4893 sakeG1223.
ForG1063 forG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 pay yeG5055 tributeG5411 alsoG2532: forG1063 they areG1526 God'sG2316 ministersG3011, attending continuallyG4342 uponG1519 thisG5124 very thingG846.
RenderG591 thereforeG3767 to allG3956 their duesG3782: tributeG5411 to whomG3588 tributeG5411 is due; customG5056 to whomG3588 customG5056; fearG5401 to whomG3588 fearG5401; honourG5092 to whomG3588 honourG5092.
OweG3784 no manG3367 any thingG3367, butG1508 to loveG25 one anotherG240: forG1063 he that lovethG25 anotherG2087 hath fulfilledG4137 the lawG3551.
ForG1063 this, Thou shaltG3431 notG3756 commit adulteryG3431, Thou shaltG5407 notG3756 killG5407, Thou shaltG2813 notG3756 stealG2813, Thou shaltG5576 notG3756 bear false witnessG5576, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937; andG2532 if there be anyG1536 otherG2087 commandmentG1785, it is briefly comprehendedG346 inG1722 thisG5129 sayingG3056, namelyG1722, Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4675 neighbourG4139 asG5613 thyselfG1438.
LoveG26 workethG2038 noG3756 illG2556 to his neighbourG4139: thereforeG3767 loveG26 is the fulfillingG4138 of the lawG3551.
AndG2532 thatG5124, knowingG1492 the timeG2540, thatG3754 nowG2235 it is high timeG5610 to awakeG2248+G1453 out ofG1537 sleepG5258: forG1063 nowG3568 is ourG2257 salvationG4991 nearerG1452 thanG2228 whenG3753 we believedG4100.
The nightG3571 is far spentG4298+G1161, the dayG2250 is at handG1448: let usG659 thereforeG3767 cast offG659 the worksG2041 of darknessG4655, andG2532 let us put onG1746 the armourG3696 of lightG5457.
Let us walkG4043 honestlyG2156, asG5613 inG1722 the dayG2250; notG3361 in riotingG2970 andG2532 drunkennessG3178, notG3361 in chamberingG2845 andG2532 wantonnessG766, notG3361 in strifeG2054 andG2532 envyingG2205. {honestly: or, decently}
ButG235 put ye onG1746 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 makeG4160 notG3361 provisionG4307 forG1519 the fleshG4561, to fulfil the lustsG1939 thereof.
AndG1161 I saidG2036, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160, LordG2962? AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036 untoG4314 meG3165, AriseG450, and goG4198 intoG1519 DamascusG1154; and thereG2546 it shall be toldG2980 theeG4671 ofG4012 all thingsG3956 whichG3739 are appointedG5021 for theeG4671 to doG4160.
And we knowG1492 thatG3754 we areG2070 ofG1537 GodG2316, andG2532 the wholeG3650 worldG2889 liethG2749 inG1722 wickednessG4190.
AndG1161 afterG3326 certainG5100 daysG2250, when FelixG5344 cameG3854 withG4862 hisG846 wifeG1135 DrusillaG1409, which wasG5607 a JewessG2453, he sent forG3343 PaulG3972, andG2532 heardG191 himG846 concerningG4012 the faithG4102 inG1519 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 broughtG4254 themG846 outG1854, and saidG5346, SirsG2962, whatG5101 mustG1163 IG3165 doG4160 toG2443 be savedG4982?
AndG1161 they saidG2036, BelieveG4100 onG1909 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 thouG4771 shalt be savedG4982, andG2532 thyG4675 houseG3624.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, markG4648 them which causeG4160 divisionsG1370 andG2532 offencesG4625 contraryG3844 to the doctrineG1322 whichG3739 yeG5210 have learnedG3129; andG2532 avoidG1578 themG575+G846.
ForG1063 they that are suchG5108 serveG1398 notG3756 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 their ownG1438 bellyG2836; andG2532 byG1223 good wordsG5542 andG2532 fair speechesG2129 deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the simpleG172.
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.
AndG2532 beG4964 notG3361 conformedG4964 to thisG5129 worldG165: butG235 be ye transformedG3339 by the renewingG342 of yourG5216 mindG3563, thatG1519 yeG5209 may proveG1381 whatG5101 is that goodG18, andG2532 acceptableG2101, andG2532 perfectG5046, willG2307 of GodG2316.
