JohnG2491 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, A manG444 canG1410+G3756 receiveG2983 nothingG3762, exceptG3362 it beG5600 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. {receive: or, take unto himself}
AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG3303+G3767 being brought on their wayG4311 byG5259 the churchG1577, they passed throughG1330 PheniceG5403 andG2532 SamariaG4540, declaringG1555 the conversionG1995 of the GentilesG1484: andG2532 they causedG4160 greatG3173 joyG5479 unto allG3956 the brethrenG80.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 there rose upG1817 certainG5100 ofG575 the sectG139 of the PhariseesG5330 which believedG4100, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 it was needfulG1163 to circumciseG4059 themG846, andG5037 to commandG3853 them to keepG5083 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. {rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain}
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
AndG1161 when there had beenG1096 muchG4183 disputingG4803, PeterG4074 rose upG450, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, yeG5210 knowG1987 how thatG3754 a goodG744 whileG2250 agoG575 GodG2316 made choiceG1586 amongG1722 usG2254, that the GentilesG1484 byG1223 myG3450 mouthG4750 should hearG191 the wordG3056 of the gospelG2098, andG2532 believeG4100.
AndG2532 GodG2316, which knoweth the heartsG2589, bare themG846 witnessG3140, givingG1325 themG846 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2532 asG2531 he did unto usG2254;
AndG2532 putG1252 noG3762 differenceG1252 betweenG3342+G5037 usG2257 andG2532 themG846, purifyingG2511 theirG846 heartsG2588 by faithG4102.
NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 tempt yeG3985 GodG2316, to putG2007 a yokeG2218 uponG1909 the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101, whichG3739 neitherG3777 ourG2257 fathersG3962 norG3777 weG2249 were ableG2480 to bearG941?
ButG235 we believeG4100 that throughG1223 the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 we shall be savedG4982, evenG2596+G3739 asG5158 theyG2548.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 gave audienceG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 themG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 they had heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435 and brethrenG80, hearkenG191 unto meG3450:
SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 did visitG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 out ofG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 the ruinsG2679 thereofG846, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461:
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
ButG235 that we writeG1989 unto themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from fornicationG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596+G3956 sabbath dayG4521.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495+G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 unto the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791:
Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 which went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291:
It seemed goodG1380 unto usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 untoG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972,
MenG444 that have hazardedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056. {mouth: Gr. word}
ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876;
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
SoG3303+G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992:
Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874. {consolation: or, exhortation}
And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them.
AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a spaceG5550, they were let goG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 untoG4314 the apostlesG652.
NotwithstandingG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961.
PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 untoG4314 BarnabasG921+G1211, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722+G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138.
ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041.
AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departed asunderG673 one from the otherG575+G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 untoG1519 CyprusG2954;
AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being recommendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 unto the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
ThenG1899 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 afterG1223 I went upG305 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 BarnabasG921, and tookG4838 TitusG5103 with meG4838 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 I went upG305 byG2596 revelationG602, andG2532 communicatedG394 unto themG846 that gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachG2784 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, butG1161 privatelyG2596+G2398 to them which were of reputationG1380, lest by any meansG3381+G4458 I should runG5143, orG2228 had runG5143, inG1519 vainG2756. {privately: or, severally}
ButG235 neitherG3761 TitusG5103, whoG3588 was withG4862 meG1698, beingG5607 a GreekG1672, was compelledG315 to be circumcisedG4059:
AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in privilyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:
To whomG3739 we gave placeG1502 by subjectionG5292, no, notG3761 forG4314 an hourG5610; thatG2443 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098 might continueG1265 withG4314 youG5209.
ButG1161 ofG575 these who seemedG1380 to beG1511 somewhatG5100, (whatsoeverG3697+G4218 they wereG2258, it makethG1308 noG3762 matterG1308 to meG3427: GodG2316 acceptethG2983 noG3756 man'sG444 personG4383:) forG1063 they who seemedG1380 to be somewhat in conference addedG4323 nothingG3762 to meG1698:
ButG235 contrariwiseG5121, when they sawG1492 thatG3754 the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203 was committed unto meG4100, asG2531 the gospel of the circumcisionG4061 was unto PeterG4074;
(ForG1063 he that wrought effectuallyG1754 in PeterG4074 toG1519 the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061, the sameG2532 was mightyG1754 in meG1698 towardG1519 the GentilesG1484:)
AndG2532 when JamesG2385+G2532, CephasG2786, andG2532 JohnG2491, whoG3588 seemedG1380 to beG1511 pillarsG4769, perceivedG1097 the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 unto meG3427, they gaveG1325 to meG1698 andG2532 BarnabasG921 the right handsG1188 of fellowshipG2842; thatG2443 weG2249 should go untoG1519 the heathenG1484, andG1161 theyG846 untoG1519 the circumcisionG4061.
OnlyG3440 they would thatG2443 we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434; the sameG846+G5124 whichG3739 IG4704 alsoG2532 was forwardG4704 to doG4160.
ButG1161 whenG3753 PeterG4074 was comeG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490, I withstoodG436 himG846 toG2596 the faceG4383, becauseG3754 he wasG2258 to be blamedG2607.
ForG1063 beforeG4253 that certainG5100 cameG2064 fromG575 JamesG2385, he did eatG4906 withG3326 the GentilesG1484: butG1161 whenG3753 they were comeG2064, he withdrewG5288 andG2532 separatedG873 himselfG1438, fearingG5399 them which were ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061.
AndG2532 the otherG3062 JewsG2453 dissembledG4942 likewiseG2532 with himG846; insomuchG5620 that BarnabasG921 alsoG2532 was carried awayG4879 with theirG846 dissimulationG5272.
ButG235 whenG3753 I sawG1492 thatG3754 they walkedG3716 notG3756 uprightlyG3716 according toG4314 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098, I saidG2036 unto PeterG4074 beforeG1715 them allG3956, IfG1487 thouG4771, beingG5225 a JewG2453, livestG2198 after the manner of GentilesG1483, andG2532 notG3756 as do the JewsG2452, whyG5101 compellest thouG315 the GentilesG1484 to live as do the JewsG2450?
WeG2249 who are JewsG2453 by natureG5449, andG2532 notG3756 sinnersG268 ofG1537 the GentilesG1484,
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 a manG444 isG1344 notG3756 justifiedG1344 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551, butG3362 byG1223 the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 weG2249 have believedG4100 inG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551: forG1360 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 shallG1344 noG3756+G3956 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344.
ButG1161 ifG1487, while we seekG2212 to be justifiedG1344 byG1722 ChristG5547, weG2147 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532 are foundG2147 sinnersG268, is thereforeG687 ChristG5547 the ministerG1249 of sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096.
ForG1063 ifG1487 I buildG3618 againG3825 the thingsG5023 whichG3739 I destroyedG2647, I makeG4921 myselfG1683 a transgressorG3848.
ForG1063 IG1473 throughG1223 the lawG3551 am deadG599 to the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might liveG2198 unto GodG2316.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
I doG114 notG3756 frustrateG114 the graceG5485 of GodG2316: forG1063 ifG1487 righteousnessG1343 come byG1223 the lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 is deadG599 in vainG1432.
AndG2532 accountG2233 that the longsufferingG3115 of ourG2257 LordG2962 is salvationG4991; even asG2531 ourG2257 belovedG27 brotherG80 PaulG3972 alsoG2532 according toG2596 the wisdomG4678 givenG1325 unto himG846 hath writtenG1125 unto youG5213;
AsG5613 alsoG2532 inG1722 allG3956 his epistlesG1992, speakingG2980 inG1722 themG846 ofG4012 these thingsG5130; inG1722 whichG3739 areG2076 some thingsG5100 hard to be understoodG1425, whichG3739 they that are unlearnedG261 andG2532 unstableG793 wrestG4761, asG5613 they do alsoG2532 the otherG3062 scripturesG1124, untoG4314 theirG846 ownG2398 destructionG684.
SevenH7651 weeksH7620 shalt thou numberH5608 unto thee: beginH2490 to numberH5608 the sevenH7651 weeksH7620 from such time as thou beginnestH2490 to put the sickleH2770 to the cornH7054.
And thou shalt keepH6213 the feastH2282 of weeksH7620 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 with a tributeH4530 of a freewill offeringH5071 of thine handH3027, which thou shalt giveH5414 unto the LORD thy God, according as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath blessedH1288 thee: {a tribute: or, sufficiency}
And thou shalt rejoiceH8055 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, thou, and thy sonH1121, and thy daughterH1323, and thy manservantH5650, and thy maidservantH519, and the LeviteH3881 that is within thy gatesH8179, and the strangerH1616, and the fatherlessH3490, and the widowH490, that are amongH7130 you, in the placeH4725 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath chosenH977 to placeH7931 his nameH8034 there.
And thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a bondmanH5650 in EgyptH4714: and thou shalt observeH8104 and doH6213 these statutesH2706.
And ye shall countH5608 unto you from the morrowH4283 after the sabbathH7676, from the dayH3117 that ye broughtH935 the sheafH6016 of the wave offeringH8573; sevenH7651 sabbathsH7676 shall beH1961 completeH8549:
Even untoH5704 the morrowH4283 after the seventhH7637 sabbathH7676 shall ye numberH5608 fiftyH2572 daysH3117; and ye shall offerH7126 a newH2319 meat offeringH4503 unto the LORDH3068.
Ye shall bring outH935 of your habitationsH4186 twoH8147 waveH8573 loavesH3899 of twoH8147 tenth dealsH6241: they shall be of fine flourH5560; they shall be bakenH644 with leavenH2557; they are the firstfruitsH1061 unto the LORDH3068.
And ye shall offerH7126 with the breadH3899 sevenH7651 lambsH3532 without blemishH8549 of the firstH1121 yearH8141, and oneH259 youngH1241+H1121 bullockH6499, and twoH8147 ramsH352: they shall be for a burnt offeringH5930 unto the LORDH3068, with their meat offeringH4503, and their drink offeringsH5262, even an offering made by fireH801, of sweetH5207 savourH7381 unto the LORDH3068.
Then ye shall sacrificeH6213 oneH259 kidH8163 of the goatsH5795 for a sin offeringH2403, and twoH8147 lambsH3532 of the firstH1121 yearH8141 for a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002.
And the priestH3548 shall waveH5130 them with the breadH3899 of the firstfruitsH1061 for a wave offeringH8573 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, with the twoH8147 lambsH3532: they shall be holyH6944 to the LORDH3068 for the priestH3548.
And ye shall proclaimH7121 on the selfsameH6106 dayH3117, that it may be an holyH6944 convocationH4744 unto you: ye shall doH6213 no servileH5656 workH4399 therein: it shall be a statuteH2708 for everH5769 in all your dwellingsH4186 throughout your generationsH1755.
And when ye reapH7114 the harvestH7105 of your landH776, thou shalt not make clean riddanceH3615 of the cornersH6285 of thy fieldH7704 when thou reapestH7114, neither shalt thou gatherH3950 any gleaningH3951 of thy harvestH7105: thou shalt leaveH5800 them unto the poorH6041, and to the strangerH1616: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
WhenG3303 they thereforeG3767 were come togetherG4905, they askedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962+G1487, wilt thouG600 atG1722 thisG5129 timeG5550 restore againG600 the kingdomG932 to IsraelG2474?
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}
AndG2532 I will giveG1325 unto theeG4671 the keysG2807 of the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772: andG2532 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 thou shalt bindG1210 onG1909 earthG1093 shall beG2071 boundG1210 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 thou shalt looseG3089 onG1909 earthG1093 shall beG2071 loosedG3089 inG1722 heavenG3772.
ButG1161 whenG3753 they believedG4100 PhilipG5376 preachingG2097 the things concerningG4012 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, andG2532 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, they were baptizedG907, bothG5037 menG435 andG2532 womenG1135.
BlowH8628 ye the trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, and sound an alarmH7321 in my holyH6944 mountainH2022: let all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 trembleH7264: for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 comethH935, for it is nigh at handH7138; {trumpet: or, cornet}
A dayH3117 of darknessH2822 and of gloominessH653, a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051 and of thick darknessH6205, as the morningH7837 spreadH6566 upon the mountainsH2022: a greatH7227 peopleH5971 and a strongH6099; there hath not beenH1961 everH5769 the like, neither shall be any moreH3254 afterH310 it, even to the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755. {of many…: Heb. of generation and generation}
A fireH784 devourethH398 beforeH6440 them; and behindH310 them a flameH3852 burnethH3857: the landH776 is as the gardenH1588 of EdenH5731 beforeH6440 them, and behindH310 them a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057; yea, and nothing shall escapeH6413 them.
The appearanceH4758 of them is as the appearanceH4758 of horsesH5483; and as horsemenH6571, so shall they runH7323.
Like the noiseH6963 of chariotsH4818 on the topsH7218 of mountainsH2022 shall they leapH7540, like the noiseH6963 of a flameH3851 of fireH784 that devourethH398 the stubbleH7179, as a strongH6099 peopleH5971 set in battleH4421 arrayH6186.
Before their faceH6440 the peopleH5971 shall be much painedH2342: all facesH6440 shall gatherH6908 blacknessH6289. {blackness: Heb. pot}
They shall runH7323 like mighty menH1368; they shall climbH5927 the wallH2346 like menH582 of warH4421; and they shall marchH3212 every oneH376 on his waysH1870, and they shall not breakH5670 their ranksH734:
Neither shall oneH376 thrustH1766 anotherH251; they shall walkH3212 every oneH1397 in his pathH4546: and when they fallH5307 upon the swordH7973, they shall not be woundedH1214. {sword: or, dart}
They shall run to and froH8264 in the cityH5892; they shall runH7323 upon the wallH2346, they shall climb upH5927 upon the housesH1004; they shall enter inH935 at the windowsH2474 like a thiefH1590.
The earthH776 shall quakeH7264 beforeH6440 them; the heavensH8064 shall trembleH7493: the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 shall be darkH6937, and the starsH3556 shall withdrawH622 their shiningH5051:
And the LORDH3068 shall utterH5414 his voiceH6963 beforeH6440 his armyH2428: for his campH4264 is veryH3966 greatH7227: for he is strongH6099 that executethH6213 his wordH1697: for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is greatH1419 and veryH3966 terribleH3372; and who can abideH3557 it?
Therefore also now, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, turnH7725 ye even to me with all your heartH3824, and with fastingH6685, and with weepingH1065, and with mourningH4553:
And rendH7167 your heartH3824, and not your garmentsH899, and turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430: for he is graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and repentethH5162 him of the evilH7451.
Who knowethH3045 if he will returnH7725 and repentH5162, and leaveH7604 a blessingH1293 behindH310 him; even a meat offeringH4503 and a drink offeringH5262 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430?
BlowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, sanctifyH6942 a fastH6685, callH7121 a solemn assemblyH6116:
GatherH622 the peopleH5971, sanctifyH6942 the congregationH6951, assembleH6908 the eldersH2205, gatherH622 the childrenH5768, and those that suckH3243 the breastsH7699: let the bridegroomH2860 go forthH3318 of his chamberH2315, and the brideH3618 out of her closetH2646.
Let the priestsH3548, the ministersH8334 of the LORDH3068, weepH1058 between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, and let them sayH559, SpareH2347 thy peopleH5971, O LORDH3068, and giveH5414 not thine heritageH5159 to reproachH2781, that the heathenH1471 should rule overH4910 them: wherefore should they sayH559 among the peopleH5971, Where is their GodH430? {rule over: or, use a byword against}
Then will the LORDH3068 be jealousH7065 for his landH776, and pityH2550 his peopleH5971.
Yea, the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 and sayH559 unto his peopleH5971, Behold, I will sendH7971 you cornH1715, and wineH8492, and oilH3323, and ye shall be satisfiedH7646 therewith: and I will no more makeH5414 you a reproachH2781 among the heathenH1471:
But I will remove far offH7368 from you the northernH6830 army, and will driveH5080 him into a landH776 barrenH6723 and desolateH8077, with his faceH6440 toward the eastH6931 seaH3220, and his hinder partH5490 toward the utmostH314 seaH3220, and his stinkH889 shall come upH5927, and his ill savourH6709 shall come upH5927, because he hath doneH6213 great thingsH1431. {hath…: Heb. hath magnified to do}
FearH3372 not, O landH127; be gladH1523 and rejoiceH8055: for the LORDH3068 will doH6213 great thingsH1431. {will…: Heb. hath magnified to do}
Be not afraidH3372, ye beastsH929 of the fieldH7704: for the pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057 do springH1876, for the treeH6086 bearethH5375 her fruitH6529, the fig treeH8384 and the vineH1612 do yieldH5414 their strengthH2428.
Be gladH1523 then, ye childrenH1121 of ZionH6726, and rejoiceH8055 in the LORDH3068 your GodH430: for he hath givenH5414 you the former rainH4175 moderatelyH6666, and he will cause to come downH3381 for you the rainH1653, the former rainH4175, and the latter rainH4456 in the firstH7223 month. {the former rain moderately: or, a teacher of righteousness} {moderately: Heb. according to righteousness}
And the floorsH1637 shall be fullH4390 of wheatH1250, and the fatsH3342 shall overflowH7783 with wineH8492 and oilH3323.
And I will restoreH7999 to you the yearsH8141 that the locustH697 hath eatenH398, the cankerwormH3218, and the caterpillerH2625, and the palmerwormH1501, my greatH1419 armyH2428 which I sentH7971 among you.
And ye shall eatH398 in plentyH398, and be satisfiedH7646, and praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that hath dealtH6213 wondrouslyH6381 with you: and my peopleH5971 shall neverH5769 be ashamedH954.
And ye shall knowH3045 that I am in the midstH7130 of IsraelH3478, and that I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and none else: and my peopleH5971 shall neverH5769 be ashamedH954.
And it shall come to pass afterwardH310, that I will pour outH8210 my spiritH7307 upon all fleshH1320; and your sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 shall prophesyH5012, your old menH2205 shall dreamH2492 dreamsH2472, your young menH970 shall seeH7200 visionsH2384:
And also upon the servantsH5650 and upon the handmaidsH8198 in those daysH3117 will I pour outH8210 my spiritH7307.
And I will shewH5414 wondersH4159 in the heavensH8064 and in the earthH776, bloodH1818, and fireH784, and pillarsH8490 of smokeH6227.
The sunH8121 shall be turnedH2015 into darknessH2822, and the moonH3394 into bloodH1818, beforeH6440 the greatH1419 and the terribleH3372 dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 comeH935.
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall callH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 shall be deliveredH4422: for in mountH2022 ZionH6726 and in JerusalemH3389 shall be deliveranceH6413, as the LORDH3068 hath saidH559, and in the remnantH8300 whom the LORDH3068 shall callH7121.
ButG1161 the ComforterG3875, which is the HolyG40 GhostG4151, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 will sendG3992 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, heG1565 shall teachG1321 youG5209 all thingsG3956, andG2532 bringG5279 all thingsG3956 toG5279 yourG5209 remembranceG5279, whatsoeverG3739 I have saidG2036 unto youG5213.
TheseG5128 twelveG1427 JesusG2424 sent forthG649, and commandedG3853 themG846, sayingG3004, GoG565 notG3361 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of the GentilesG1484, andG2532 intoG1519 any cityG4172 of the SamaritansG4541 enter yeG1525 notG3361:
AndG2532 saidG2036 unto themG846, ThusG3754+G3779 it is writtenG1125, andG2532 thusG3779 it behovedG1163 ChristG5547 to sufferG3958, andG2532 to riseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498 the thirdG5154 dayG2250:
AndG2532 that repentanceG3341 andG2532 remissionG859 of sinsG266 should be preachedG2784 inG1909 hisG846 nameG3686 amongG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484, beginningG756 atG575 JerusalemG2419.
AndG1161 yeG5210 areG2075 witnessesG3144 of these thingsG5130.
ButG235 ye shall receiveG2983 powerG1411, after that the HolyG40 GhostG4151 is comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209: andG2532 ye shall beG2071 witnessesG3144 unto meG3427 bothG5037 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 in SamariaG4540, andG2532 untoG2193 the uttermost partG2078 of the earthG1093. {power…: or, the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you}
Now therefore, if ye will obeyH8085 my voiceH6963 indeedH8085, and keepH8104 my covenantH1285, then ye shall be a peculiar treasureH5459 unto me above all peopleH5971: for all the earthH776 is mine:
If so beG1512 ye have tastedG1089 thatG3754 the LordG2962 is graciousG5543.
ToG4314 whomG3739 comingG4334, as unto a livingG2198 stoneG3037, disallowedG593 indeedG3303 ofG5259 menG444, butG1161 chosenG1588 ofG3844 GodG2316, and preciousG1784,
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}
WhereforeG1352 alsoG2532 it is containedG4023 inG1722 the scriptureG1124, BeholdG2400, I layG5087 inG1722 SionG4622 a chief cornerG204 stoneG3037, electG1588, preciousG1784: andG2532 he that believethG4100 onG1909 himG846 shallG2617 not beG3364 confoundedG2617.
Unto youG5213 thereforeG3767 whichG3588 believeG4100 he is preciousG5092: butG1161 unto them which be disobedientG544, the stoneG3037 whichG3739 the buildersG3618 disallowedG593, the sameG3778 is madeG1096+G1519 the headG2776 of the cornerG1137, {precious: or, an honour}
AndG2532 a stoneG3037 of stumblingG4348, andG2532 a rockG4073 of offenceG4625, even to them whichG3739 stumbleG4350 at the wordG3056, being disobedientG544: whereuntoG1519+G3739 alsoG2532 they were appointedG5087.
ButG1161 yeG5210 are a chosenG1588 generationG1085, a royalG934 priesthoodG2406, an holyG40 nationG1484, a peculiarG1519+G4047 peopleG2992; thatG3704 ye should shew forthG1804 the praisesG703 of him who hath calledG2564 youG5209 out ofG1537 darknessG4655 intoG1519 hisG846 marvellousG2298 lightG5457: {peculiar: or, purchased} {praises: or, virtues}
WhichG3588 in time pastG4218 were notG3756 a peopleG2992, butG1161 are nowG3568 the peopleG2992 of GodG2316: whichG3588 hadG1653 notG3756 obtained mercyG1653, butG1161 nowG3568 have obtained mercyG1653.
And he saidH559, It is a light thingH7043 that thou shouldest be my servantH5650 to raise upH6965 the tribesH7626 of JacobH3290, and to restoreH7725 the preservedH5341+H5336 of IsraelH3478: I will also giveH5414 thee for a lightH216 to the GentilesH1471, that thou mayest be my salvationH3444 unto the endH7097 of the earthH776. {It is…: or, Art thou lighter than that thou shouldest, etc} {preserved: or, desolations}
In that dayH3117 will I raise upH6965 the tabernacleH5521 of DavidH1732 that is fallenH5307, and close upH1443 the breachesH6556 thereof; and I will raise upH6965 his ruinsH2034, and I will buildH1129 it as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769: {close: Heb. hedge, or, wall}
That they may possessH3423 the remnantH7611 of EdomH123, and of all the heathenH1471, which are calledH7121 by my nameH8034, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 that doethH6213 this. {which…: Heb. upon whom my name is called}
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
There wasG2258 a certainG5100 manG435 inG1722 CaesareaG2542 calledG3686 CorneliusG2883, a centurionG1543 ofG1537 the bandG4686 calledG2564 the ItalianG2483 band,
A devoutG2152 man, andG2532 one that fearedG5399 GodG2316 withG4862 allG3956 hisG846 houseG3624, whichG5037 gaveG4160 muchG4183 almsG1654 to the peopleG2992, andG2532 prayedG1189 to GodG2316 alwayG1275.
He sawG1492 inG1722 a visionG3705 evidentlyG5320 aboutG5616 the ninthG1766 hourG5610 of the dayG2250 an angelG32 of GodG2316 coming inG1525 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 sayingG2036 unto himG846, CorneliusG2883.
AndG1161 when he lookedG816 on himG846, he wasG1096 afraidG1719, andG2532 saidG2036, WhatG5101 is itG2076, LordG2962? AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto himG846, ThyG4675 prayersG4335 andG2532 thineG4675 almsG1654 are come upG305 forG1519 a memorialG3422 beforeG1799 GodG2316.
AndG2532 nowG3568 sendG3992 menG435 toG1519 JoppaG2445, andG2532 call forG3343 one SimonG4613, whoseG3739 surname isG1941 PeterG4074:
HeG3778 lodgethG3579 withG3844 oneG5100 SimonG4613 a tannerG1038, whoseG3739 houseG3614 isG2076 byG3844 the sea sideG2281: heG3778 shall tellG2980 theeG4671 whatG5101 thouG4571 oughtestG1163 to doG4160.
AndG1161 whenG5613 the angelG32 whichG3588 spakeG2980 unto CorneliusG2883 was departedG565, he calledG5455 twoG1417 of hisG846 household servantsG3610, andG2532 a devoutG2152 soldierG4757 of them that waited onG4342 himG846 continuallyG4342;
AndG2532 when he had declaredG1834 all these thingsG537 unto themG846, he sentG649 themG846 toG1519 JoppaG2445.
On the morrowG1887, as theyG1565 went on their journeyG3596, andG2532 drew nighG1448 unto the cityG4172, PeterG4074 went upG305 uponG1909 the housetopG1430 to prayG4336 aboutG4012 the sixthG1623 hourG5610:
AndG1161 he becameG1096 very hungryG4361, andG2532 wouldG2309 have eatenG1089: butG1161 while theyG1565 made readyG3903, heG846 fellG1968 intoG1909 a tranceG1611,
AndG2532 sawG2334 heavenG3772 openedG455, andG2532 a certainG5100 vesselG4632 descendingG2597 untoG1909 himG846, asG5613 it had been a greatG3173 sheetG3607 knitG1210 at the fourG5064 cornersG746, andG2532 let downG2524 toG1909 the earthG1093:
WhereinG1722+G3739 wereG5225 all mannerG3956 of fourfooted beastsG5074 of the earthG1093, andG2532 wild beastsG2342, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062, andG2532 fowlsG4071 of the airG3772.
AndG2532 there cameG1096 a voiceG5456 toG4314 himG846, RiseG450, PeterG4074; killG2380, andG2532 eatG5315.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036, Not soG3365, LordG2962; forG3754 I haveG5315 neverG3763 eatenG5315 any thingG3956 that is commonG2839 orG2228 uncleanG169.
AndG2532 the voiceG5456 spake untoG4314 himG846 againG3825+G1537 the second timeG1208, WhatG3739 GodG2316 hath cleansedG2511, that callG2840 notG3361 thouG4771 commonG2840.
ThisG5124 was doneG1096 thriceG1909+G5151: andG2532 the vesselG4632 was received upG353 againG3825 intoG1519 heavenG3772.
NowG1161 whileG5613 PeterG4074 doubtedG1280 inG1722 himselfG1438 whatG5101 this visionG3705 whichG3739 he had seenG1492 should meanG302+G1498, beholdG2400+G2532, the menG435 whichG3588 were sentG649 fromG575 CorneliusG2883 had made enquiryG1331 for Simon'sG4613 houseG3614, and stoodG2186 beforeG1909 the gateG4440,
AndG2532 calledG5455, and askedG4441 whetherG1487 SimonG4613, whichG3588 was surnamedG1941 PeterG4074, were lodgedG3579 thereG1759.
WhileG1161 PeterG4074 thoughtG1760 onG4012 the visionG3705, the SpiritG4151 saidG2036 unto himG846, BeholdG2400, threeG5140 menG435 seekG2212 theeG4571.
AriseG450 thereforeG235, and get thee downG2597, andG2532 goG4198 withG4862 themG846, doubtingG1252 nothingG3367: forG1360 IG1473 have sentG649 themG846.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 went downG2597 toG4314 the menG435 whichG3588 were sentG649 untoG4314 himG846 fromG575 CorneliusG2883; and saidG2036, BeholdG2400, IG1473 amG1510 he whomG3739 ye seekG2212: whatG5101 is the causeG156 whereforeG1223+G3739 ye are comeG3918?
AndG1161 they saidG2036, CorneliusG2883 the centurionG1543, a justG1342 manG435, andG2532 one that fearethG5399 GodG2316, andG5037 of good reportG3140 amongG5259 allG3650 the nationG1484 of the JewsG2453, was warned from GodG5537 byG5259 an holyG40 angelG32 to sendG3343 for theeG4571 intoG1519 hisG846 houseG3624, andG2532 to hearG191 wordsG4487 ofG3844 theeG4675.
ThenG3767 called heG1528 themG846 inG1528, and lodgedG3579 them. AndG1161 on the morrowG1887 PeterG4074 went awayG1831 withG4862 themG846, andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 fromG575 JoppaG2445 accompaniedG4905 himG846.
AndG2532 the morrowG1887 after they enteredG1525 intoG1519 CaesareaG2542. AndG1161 CorneliusG2883 waited forG4328 themG846+G2258, and had called togetherG4779 hisG846 kinsmenG4773 andG2532 nearG316 friendsG5384.
AndG1161 asG5613 PeterG4074 wasG1096 coming inG1525, CorneliusG2883 metG4876 himG846, and fell downG4098 atG1909 his feetG4228, and worshippedG4352 him.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 tookG1453 himG846 upG1453, sayingG3004, Stand upG450; IG2504 myselfG846 alsoG2504 amG1510 a manG444.
AndG2532 as he talkedG4926 with himG846, he went inG1525, andG2532 foundG2147 manyG4183 that were come togetherG4905.
AndG5037 he saidG5346 untoG4314 themG846, YeG5210 knowG1987 howG5613 that it isG2076 an unlawful thingG111 for a manG435 that is a JewG2453 to keep companyG2853, orG2228 come untoG4334 one of another nationG246; butG2532 GodG2316 hath shewedG1166 meG1698 that I should notG3367 callG3004 anyG3367 manG444 commonG2839 orG2228 uncleanG169.
ThereforeG1352+G2532 came IG2064 unto you without gainsayingG369, as soon as I was sent forG3343: I askG4441 thereforeG3767 for whatG5101 intentG3056 ye have sent forG3343 meG3165?
AndG2532 CorneliusG2883 saidG5346, FourG5067 daysG2250 agoG575 I wasG2252 fastingG3522 untilG3360 thisG5026 hourG5610; andG2532 at the ninthG1766 hourG5610 I prayedG4336 inG1722 myG3450 houseG3624, andG2532, beholdG2400, a manG435 stoodG2476 beforeG1799 meG3450 inG1722 brightG2986 clothingG2066,
AndG2532 saidG5346, CorneliusG2883, thyG4675 prayerG4335 is heardG1522, andG2532 thineG4675 almsG1654 are had in remembranceG3415 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.
SendG3992 thereforeG3767 toG1519 JoppaG2445, andG2532 call hitherG3333 SimonG4613, whoseG3739 surname isG1941 PeterG4074; heG3778 is lodgedG3579 inG1722 the houseG3614 of one SimonG4613 a tannerG1038 byG3844 the sea sideG2281: whoG3739, when he comethG3854, shall speakG2980 unto theeG4671.
ImmediatelyG1824 thereforeG3767 I sentG3992 toG4314 theeG4571; andG5037 thouG4771 hast wellG2573 doneG4160 that thou art comeG3854. NowG3568 thereforeG3767 areG3918 weG2249 allG3956 here presentG3918 beforeG1799 GodG2316, to hearG191 all thingsG3956 that are commandedG4367 theeG4671 ofG5259 GodG2316.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 openedG455 his mouthG4750, and saidG2036, OfG1909 a truthG225 I perceiveG2638 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 noG3756 respecter of personsG4381:
ButG235 inG1722 everyG3956 nationG1484 he that fearethG5399 himG846, andG2532 workethG2038 righteousnessG1343, isG2076 acceptedG1184 with himG846.
The wordG3056 whichG3739 God sentG649 unto the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474, preachingG2097 peaceG1515 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: (heG3778 isG2076 LordG2962 of allG3956:)
That wordG4487, I say, yeG5210 knowG1492, which was publishedG1096 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449, and beganG756 fromG575 GalileeG1056, afterG3326 the baptismG908 whichG3739 JohnG2491 preachedG2784;
HowG5613 GodG2316 anointedG5548 JesusG2424 ofG575 NazarethG3478 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with powerG1411: whoG846+G3739 went aboutG1330 doing goodG2109, andG2532 healingG2390 allG3956 that were oppressedG2616 ofG5259 the devilG1228; forG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
AndG2532 weG2249 areG2070 witnessesG3144 of all thingsG3956 whichG3739 he didG4160 bothG5037 inG1722 the landG5561 of the JewsG2453, andG2532 inG1722 JerusalemG2419; whomG3739 they slewG337 and hangedG2910 onG1909 a treeG3586:
HimG5126 GodG2316 raised upG1453 the thirdG5154 dayG2250, andG2532 shewedG1096 himG846 openlyG1717+G1325;
NotG3756 to allG3956 the peopleG2992, butG235 unto witnessesG3144 chosen beforeG4401 ofG5259 GodG2316, even to usG2254, whoG3748 did eatG4906 andG2532 drink withG4844 himG846 afterG3326 heG846 roseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498.
AndG2532 he commandedG3853 usG2254 to preachG2784 unto the peopleG2992, andG2532 to testifyG1263 thatG3754 it isG2076 heG846 whichG3588 was ordainedG3724 ofG5259 GodG2316 to be the JudgeG2923 of quickG2198 andG2532 deadG3498.
To himG5129 giveG3140 allG3956 the prophetsG4396 witnessG3140, that throughG1223 hisG846 nameG3686 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shall receiveG2983 remissionG859 of sinsG266.
While PeterG4074 yetG2089 spakeG2980 theseG5023 wordsG4487, the HolyG40 GhostG4151 fellG1968 onG1909 allG3956 them which heardG191 the wordG3056.
AndG2532 they ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061 which believedG4103 were astonishedG1839, as many asG3745 came withG4905 PeterG4074, becauseG3754 that onG1909 the GentilesG1484 alsoG2532 was poured outG1632 the giftG1431 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ForG1063 they heardG191 themG846 speak withG2980 tonguesG1100, andG2532 magnifyG3170 GodG2316. ThenG5119 answeredG611 PeterG4074,
CanG3385+G1410 any manG5100 forbidG2967 waterG5204, that theseG5128 shouldG907 notG3361 be baptizedG907, whichG3748 have receivedG2983 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 asG2532 well asG2531 weG2249?
AndG5037 he commandedG4367 themG846 to be baptizedG907 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962. ThenG5119 prayed theyG2065 himG846 to tarryG1961 certainG5100 daysG2250.
ForG1063 heG846 isG2076 ourG2257 peaceG1515, whoG3588 hath madeG4160 bothG297 oneG1520, andG2532 hath broken downG3089 the middle wallG3320 of partitionG5418 between us;
And are builtG2026 uponG1909 the foundationG2310 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846 beingG5607 the chief cornerG204 stone;
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;
AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG3303+G3767 being brought on their wayG4311 byG5259 the churchG1577, they passed throughG1330 PheniceG5403 andG2532 SamariaG4540, declaringG1555 the conversionG1995 of the GentilesG1484: andG2532 they causedG4160 greatG3173 joyG5479 unto allG3956 the brethrenG80.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 there rose upG1817 certainG5100 ofG575 the sectG139 of the PhariseesG5330 which believedG4100, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 it was needfulG1163 to circumciseG4059 themG846, andG5037 to commandG3853 them to keepG5083 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. {rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain}
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
AndG1161 when there had beenG1096 muchG4183 disputingG4803, PeterG4074 rose upG450, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, yeG5210 knowG1987 how thatG3754 a goodG744 whileG2250 agoG575 GodG2316 made choiceG1586 amongG1722 usG2254, that the GentilesG1484 byG1223 myG3450 mouthG4750 should hearG191 the wordG3056 of the gospelG2098, andG2532 believeG4100.
AndG2532 GodG2316, which knoweth the heartsG2589, bare themG846 witnessG3140, givingG1325 themG846 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2532 asG2531 he did unto usG2254;
AndG2532 putG1252 noG3762 differenceG1252 betweenG3342+G5037 usG2257 andG2532 themG846, purifyingG2511 theirG846 heartsG2588 by faithG4102.
NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 tempt yeG3985 GodG2316, to putG2007 a yokeG2218 uponG1909 the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101, whichG3739 neitherG3777 ourG2257 fathersG3962 norG3777 weG2249 were ableG2480 to bearG941?
ButG235 we believeG4100 that throughG1223 the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 we shall be savedG4982, evenG2596+G3739 asG5158 theyG2548.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 gave audienceG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 themG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 they had heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435 and brethrenG80, hearkenG191 unto meG3450:
SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 did visitG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 out ofG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 the ruinsG2679 thereofG846, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461:
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
ButG235 that we writeG1989 unto themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from fornicationG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596+G3956 sabbath dayG4521.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495+G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 unto the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791:
Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 which went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291:
It seemed goodG1380 unto usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 untoG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972,
MenG444 that have hazardedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056. {mouth: Gr. word}
ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876;
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
SoG3303+G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992:
Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874. {consolation: or, exhortation}
And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them.
AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a spaceG5550, they were let goG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 untoG4314 the apostlesG652.
NotwithstandingG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961.
PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 untoG4314 BarnabasG921+G1211, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722+G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138.
ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041.
AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departed asunderG673 one from the otherG575+G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 untoG1519 CyprusG2954;
AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being recommendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 unto the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
AndG1161 the day followingG1966 PaulG3972 went inG1524 withG4862 usG2254 untoG4314 JamesG2385; andG5037 allG3956 the eldersG4245 were presentG3854.
ThenG1899 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 afterG1223 I went upG305 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 BarnabasG921, and tookG4838 TitusG5103 with meG4838 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 I went upG305 byG2596 revelationG602, andG2532 communicatedG394 unto themG846 that gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachG2784 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, butG1161 privatelyG2596+G2398 to them which were of reputationG1380, lest by any meansG3381+G4458 I should runG5143, orG2228 had runG5143, inG1519 vainG2756. {privately: or, severally}
ButG235 neitherG3761 TitusG5103, whoG3588 was withG4862 meG1698, beingG5607 a GreekG1672, was compelledG315 to be circumcisedG4059:
AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in privilyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:
To whomG3739 we gave placeG1502 by subjectionG5292, no, notG3761 forG4314 an hourG5610; thatG2443 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098 might continueG1265 withG4314 youG5209.
ButG1161 ofG575 these who seemedG1380 to beG1511 somewhatG5100, (whatsoeverG3697+G4218 they wereG2258, it makethG1308 noG3762 matterG1308 to meG3427: GodG2316 acceptethG2983 noG3756 man'sG444 personG4383:) forG1063 they who seemedG1380 to be somewhat in conference addedG4323 nothingG3762 to meG1698:
ButG235 contrariwiseG5121, when they sawG1492 thatG3754 the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203 was committed unto meG4100, asG2531 the gospel of the circumcisionG4061 was unto PeterG4074;
(ForG1063 he that wrought effectuallyG1754 in PeterG4074 toG1519 the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061, the sameG2532 was mightyG1754 in meG1698 towardG1519 the GentilesG1484:)
AndG2532 when JamesG2385+G2532, CephasG2786, andG2532 JohnG2491, whoG3588 seemedG1380 to beG1511 pillarsG4769, perceivedG1097 the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 unto meG3427, they gaveG1325 to meG1698 andG2532 BarnabasG921 the right handsG1188 of fellowshipG2842; thatG2443 weG2249 should go untoG1519 the heathenG1484, andG1161 theyG846 untoG1519 the circumcisionG4061.
OnlyG3440 they would thatG2443 we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434; the sameG846+G5124 whichG3739 IG4704 alsoG2532 was forwardG4704 to doG4160.
ButG1161 whenG3753 PeterG4074 was comeG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490, I withstoodG436 himG846 toG2596 the faceG4383, becauseG3754 he wasG2258 to be blamedG2607.
ForG1063 beforeG4253 that certainG5100 cameG2064 fromG575 JamesG2385, he did eatG4906 withG3326 the GentilesG1484: butG1161 whenG3753 they were comeG2064, he withdrewG5288 andG2532 separatedG873 himselfG1438, fearingG5399 them which were ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061.
AndG2532 the otherG3062 JewsG2453 dissembledG4942 likewiseG2532 with himG846; insomuchG5620 that BarnabasG921 alsoG2532 was carried awayG4879 with theirG846 dissimulationG5272.
ButG235 whenG3753 I sawG1492 thatG3754 they walkedG3716 notG3756 uprightlyG3716 according toG4314 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098, I saidG2036 unto PeterG4074 beforeG1715 them allG3956, IfG1487 thouG4771, beingG5225 a JewG2453, livestG2198 after the manner of GentilesG1483, andG2532 notG3756 as do the JewsG2452, whyG5101 compellest thouG315 the GentilesG1484 to live as do the JewsG2450?
WeG2249 who are JewsG2453 by natureG5449, andG2532 notG3756 sinnersG268 ofG1537 the GentilesG1484,
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 a manG444 isG1344 notG3756 justifiedG1344 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551, butG3362 byG1223 the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 weG2249 have believedG4100 inG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551: forG1360 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 shallG1344 noG3756+G3956 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344.
ButG1161 ifG1487, while we seekG2212 to be justifiedG1344 byG1722 ChristG5547, weG2147 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532 are foundG2147 sinnersG268, is thereforeG687 ChristG5547 the ministerG1249 of sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096.
ForG1063 ifG1487 I buildG3618 againG3825 the thingsG5023 whichG3739 I destroyedG2647, I makeG4921 myselfG1683 a transgressorG3848.
ForG1063 IG1473 throughG1223 the lawG3551 am deadG599 to the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might liveG2198 unto GodG2316.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
I doG114 notG3756 frustrateG114 the graceG5485 of GodG2316: forG1063 ifG1487 righteousnessG1343 come byG1223 the lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 is deadG599 in vainG1432.
AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG3303+G3767 being brought on their wayG4311 byG5259 the churchG1577, they passed throughG1330 PheniceG5403 andG2532 SamariaG4540, declaringG1555 the conversionG1995 of the GentilesG1484: andG2532 they causedG4160 greatG3173 joyG5479 unto allG3956 the brethrenG80.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 there rose upG1817 certainG5100 ofG575 the sectG139 of the PhariseesG5330 which believedG4100, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 it was needfulG1163 to circumciseG4059 themG846, andG5037 to commandG3853 them to keepG5083 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. {rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain}
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
AndG1161 when there had beenG1096 muchG4183 disputingG4803, PeterG4074 rose upG450, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, yeG5210 knowG1987 how thatG3754 a goodG744 whileG2250 agoG575 GodG2316 made choiceG1586 amongG1722 usG2254, that the GentilesG1484 byG1223 myG3450 mouthG4750 should hearG191 the wordG3056 of the gospelG2098, andG2532 believeG4100.
AndG2532 GodG2316, which knoweth the heartsG2589, bare themG846 witnessG3140, givingG1325 themG846 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2532 asG2531 he did unto usG2254;
AndG2532 putG1252 noG3762 differenceG1252 betweenG3342+G5037 usG2257 andG2532 themG846, purifyingG2511 theirG846 heartsG2588 by faithG4102.
NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 tempt yeG3985 GodG2316, to putG2007 a yokeG2218 uponG1909 the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101, whichG3739 neitherG3777 ourG2257 fathersG3962 norG3777 weG2249 were ableG2480 to bearG941?
ButG235 we believeG4100 that throughG1223 the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 we shall be savedG4982, evenG2596+G3739 asG5158 theyG2548.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 gave audienceG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 themG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 they had heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435 and brethrenG80, hearkenG191 unto meG3450:
SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 did visitG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 out ofG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 the ruinsG2679 thereofG846, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461:
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
ButG235 that we writeG1989 unto themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from fornicationG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596+G3956 sabbath dayG4521.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495+G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 unto the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791:
Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 which went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291:
It seemed goodG1380 unto usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 untoG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972,
MenG444 that have hazardedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056. {mouth: Gr. word}
ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876;
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
SoG3303+G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992:
Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874. {consolation: or, exhortation}
And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them.
AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a spaceG5550, they were let goG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 untoG4314 the apostlesG652.
NotwithstandingG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961.
PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 untoG4314 BarnabasG921+G1211, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722+G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138.
ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041.
AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departed asunderG673 one from the otherG575+G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 untoG1519 CyprusG2954;
AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being recommendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 unto the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
Him that is weakG770 in the faithG4102 receive yeG4355, butG1161 notG3361 toG1519 doubtfulG1261 disputationsG1253. {not…: or, not to judge his doubtful thoughts}
ForG3303 oneG3739 believethG4100 that he may eatG5315 all thingsG3956: anotherG1161, who is weakG770, eatethG2068 herbsG3001.
LetG1848 notG3361 him that eatethG2068 despiseG1848 him that eatethG2068 notG3361; andG2532 letG2068 notG3361 him which eatethG2068 notG3361 judgeG2919 him that eatethG2068: forG1063 GodG2316 hath receivedG4355 himG846.
WhoG5101 artG1488 thouG4771 that judgestG2919 another man'sG245 servantG3610? to his ownG2398 masterG2962 he standethG4739 orG2228 fallethG4098. YeaG1161, he shall be holden upG2476: forG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 ableG1415 to makeG2476 himG846 standG2476.
OneG3303 manG3739 esteemethG2919 one dayG2250 aboveG3844 anotherG2250+G1161: anotherG3739 esteemethG2919 everyG3956 dayG2250 alike. LetG4135 every manG1538 be fully persuadedG4135 inG1722 his ownG2398 mindG3563. {fully persuaded: or, fully assured}
He that regardethG5426 the dayG2250, regardethG5426 it unto the LordG2962; andG2532 he that regardethG5426 notG3361 the dayG2250, to the LordG2962 he dothG5426 notG3756 regardG5426 it. He that eatethG2068, eatethG2068 to the LordG2962, forG1063 he giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168; andG2532 he that eatethG2068 notG3361, to the LordG2962 he eatethG2068 notG3756, andG2532 giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168. {regardeth: or, observeth}
ForG1063 noneG3762 of usG2257 livethG2198 to himselfG1438, andG2532 no manG3762 diethG599 to himselfG1438.
ForG1063 whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198, we liveG2198 unto the LordG2962; and whetherG1437+G5037 we dieG599, we dieG599 unto the LordG2962: whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198 thereforeG3767, orG1437+G5037 dieG599, we areG2070 the Lord'sG2962.
ForG1063 toG1519 thisG5124 end ChristG5547 bothG2532 diedG599, andG2532 roseG450, andG2532 revivedG326, thatG2443 he might be LordG2961 bothG2532 of the deadG3498 andG2532 livingG2198.
ButG1161 whyG5101 dostG2919 thouG4771 judgeG2919 thyG4675 brotherG80? orG2228+G2532 whyG5101 dostG1848 thouG4771 set at noughtG1848 thyG4675 brotherG80? forG1063 we shallG3936 allG3956 stand beforeG3936 the judgment seatG968 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, As IG1473 liveG2198, saithG3004 the LordG2962+G3754, everyG3956 kneeG1119 shall bowG2578 to meG1698, andG2532 everyG3956 tongueG1100 shall confessG1843 to GodG2316.
SoG3767 thenG686 every oneG1538 of usG2257 shall giveG1325 accountG3056 ofG4012 himselfG1438 to GodG2316.
Let usG2919 not thereforeG3767 judgeG2919 one anotherG240 any moreG3371: butG235 judgeG2919 thisG5124 ratherG3123, that no manG3361 putG5087 a stumblingblockG4348 orG2228 an occasion to fallG4625 in his brother's wayG80.
I knowG1492, andG2532 am persuadedG3982 byG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, thatG3754 there is nothingG3762 uncleanG2839 ofG1223 itselfG1438: butG1508 to him that esteemethG3049 any thingG5100 to beG1511 uncleanG2839, to himG1565 it is uncleanG2839. {unclean: Gr. common}
ButG1161 ifG1487 thyG4675 brotherG80 be grievedG3076 withG1223 thy meatG1033, nowG3765 walkest thouG4043 notG3765 charitablyG26+G2596. DestroyG622 notG3361 himG1565 with thyG4675 meatG1033, forG5228 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599. {charitably: Gr. according to charity}
Let notG3361 thenG3767 yourG5216 goodG18 be evil spoken ofG987:
ForG1063 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 notG3756 meatG1035 andG2532 drinkG4213; butG235 righteousnessG1343, andG2532 peaceG1515, andG2532 joyG5479 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ForG1063 he that inG1722 these thingsG5125 servethG1398 ChristG5547 is acceptableG2101 to GodG2316, andG2532 approvedG1384 of menG444.
Let usG1377 thereforeG686+G3767 follow afterG1377 the things which make forG3588 peaceG1515, andG2532 things wherewithG1519 oneG240 may edifyG3619 anotherG240.
ForG1752 meatG1033 destroyG2647 notG3361 the workG2041 of GodG2316. All thingsG3956 indeedG3303 are pureG2513; butG235 it is evilG2556 for that manG444 who eatethG2068 withG1223 offenceG4348.
It is goodG2570 neitherG3361 to eatG5315 fleshG2907, norG3366 to drinkG4095 wineG3631, norG3366 any thing wherebyG1722+G3739 thyG4675 brotherG80 stumblethG4350, orG2228 is offendedG4624, orG2228 is made weakG770.
HastG2192 thouG4771 faithG4102? haveG2192 it toG2596 thyselfG4572 beforeG1799 GodG2316. HappyG3107 is he that condemnethG2919 notG3361 himselfG1438 inG1722 that thing whichG3739 he allowethG1381.
AndG1161 he that doubtethG1252 is damnedG2632 ifG1437 he eatG5315, becauseG3754 he eateth notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102: forG1161 whatsoeverG3739+G3956 is notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102 isG2076 sinG266. {doubteth: or, discerneth and putteth a difference between meats} {damned: or, condemned, or liable to punishment}
NowG1161 as touchingG4012 things offered unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192 knowledgeG1108. KnowledgeG1108 puffeth upG5448, butG1161 charityG26 edifiethG3618.
AndG1161 if any manG1536 thinkG1380 that he knowethG1492 any thingG5100, he knowethG1097 nothingG3762 yetG3764 asG2531 he oughtG1163 to knowG1097.
ButG1161 if any manG1536 loveG25 GodG2316, the sameG3778 is knownG1097 ofG5259 himG846.
As concerningG4012 thereforeG3767 the eatingG1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 an idolG1497 is nothingG3762 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 thatG3754 there is noneG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1508 oneG1520.
ForG1063 thoughG1512+G2532 there beG1526 that are calledG3004 godsG2316, whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 inG1909 earthG1093, (asG5618 there beG1526 godsG2316 manyG4183, andG2532 lordsG2962 manyG4183,)
ButG235 to usG2254 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3962, ofG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 himG846. {in: or, for}
HowbeitG235 there is notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068 it asG5613 a thing offered unto an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607 weakG772 is defiledG3435.
ButG1161 meatG1033 commendethG3936 usG2248 notG3756 to GodG2316: forG1063 neitherG3777, ifG1437 we eatG5315, are we the betterG4052; neitherG3777, ifG3362 we eatG5315 notG3362, are we the worseG5302. {are we the better: or, have we the more} {are we the worse: or, have we the less}
ButG1161 take heedG991 lestG3381 by any meansG4458 thisG3778 libertyG1849 of yoursG5216 becomeG1096 a stumblingblockG4348 to them that are weakG770. {liberty: or, power}
ForG1063 ifG1437 any manG5100 seeG1492 theeG4571 whichG3588 hastG2192 knowledgeG1108 sit at meatG2621 inG1722 the idol's templeG1493, shallG3618 notG3780 the conscienceG4893 of himG846 which isG5607 weakG772 be emboldenedG3618+G1519 to eatG2068 those things which are offered to idolsG1494; {emboldened: Gr. edified}
AndG2532 throughG1909 thyG4674 knowledgeG1108 shallG622 the weakG770 brotherG80 perishG622, forG1223 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599?
ButG1161 when ye sinG264 soG3779 againstG1519 the brethrenG80, andG2532 woundG5180 theirG846 weakG770 conscienceG4893, ye sinG264 againstG1519 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1355, ifG1487 meatG1033 makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624, I will eatG5315 noG3364 fleshG2907 while the world standethG1519+G165, lestG3363 I makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624.
NowG1161 as touchingG4012 things offered unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192 knowledgeG1108. KnowledgeG1108 puffeth upG5448, butG1161 charityG26 edifiethG3618.
AndG1161 if any manG1536 thinkG1380 that he knowethG1492 any thingG5100, he knowethG1097 nothingG3762 yetG3764 asG2531 he oughtG1163 to knowG1097.
ButG1161 if any manG1536 loveG25 GodG2316, the sameG3778 is knownG1097 ofG5259 himG846.

ButG235 to usG2254 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3962, ofG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 himG846. {in: or, for}
HowbeitG235 there is notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068 it asG5613 a thing offered unto an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607 weakG772 is defiledG3435.

WhereforeG1355, ifG1487 meatG1033 makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624, I will eatG5315 noG3364 fleshG2907 while the world standethG1519+G165, lestG3363 I makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624.
There wasG2258 a certainG5100 manG435 inG1722 CaesareaG2542 calledG3686 CorneliusG2883, a centurionG1543 ofG1537 the bandG4686 calledG2564 the ItalianG2483 band,
A devoutG2152 man, andG2532 one that fearedG5399 GodG2316 withG4862 allG3956 hisG846 houseG3624, whichG5037 gaveG4160 muchG4183 almsG1654 to the peopleG2992, andG2532 prayedG1189 to GodG2316 alwayG1275.
He sawG1492 inG1722 a visionG3705 evidentlyG5320 aboutG5616 the ninthG1766 hourG5610 of the dayG2250 an angelG32 of GodG2316 coming inG1525 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 sayingG2036 unto himG846, CorneliusG2883.
AndG1161 when he lookedG816 on himG846, he wasG1096 afraidG1719, andG2532 saidG2036, WhatG5101 is itG2076, LordG2962? AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto himG846, ThyG4675 prayersG4335 andG2532 thineG4675 almsG1654 are come upG305 forG1519 a memorialG3422 beforeG1799 GodG2316.
AndG2532 nowG3568 sendG3992 menG435 toG1519 JoppaG2445, andG2532 call forG3343 one SimonG4613, whoseG3739 surname isG1941 PeterG4074:
HeG3778 lodgethG3579 withG3844 oneG5100 SimonG4613 a tannerG1038, whoseG3739 houseG3614 isG2076 byG3844 the sea sideG2281: heG3778 shall tellG2980 theeG4671 whatG5101 thouG4571 oughtestG1163 to doG4160.
AndG1161 whenG5613 the angelG32 whichG3588 spakeG2980 unto CorneliusG2883 was departedG565, he calledG5455 twoG1417 of hisG846 household servantsG3610, andG2532 a devoutG2152 soldierG4757 of them that waited onG4342 himG846 continuallyG4342;
AndG2532 when he had declaredG1834 all these thingsG537 unto themG846, he sentG649 themG846 toG1519 JoppaG2445.
On the morrowG1887, as theyG1565 went on their journeyG3596, andG2532 drew nighG1448 unto the cityG4172, PeterG4074 went upG305 uponG1909 the housetopG1430 to prayG4336 aboutG4012 the sixthG1623 hourG5610:
AndG1161 he becameG1096 very hungryG4361, andG2532 wouldG2309 have eatenG1089: butG1161 while theyG1565 made readyG3903, heG846 fellG1968 intoG1909 a tranceG1611,
AndG2532 sawG2334 heavenG3772 openedG455, andG2532 a certainG5100 vesselG4632 descendingG2597 untoG1909 himG846, asG5613 it had been a greatG3173 sheetG3607 knitG1210 at the fourG5064 cornersG746, andG2532 let downG2524 toG1909 the earthG1093:
WhereinG1722+G3739 wereG5225 all mannerG3956 of fourfooted beastsG5074 of the earthG1093, andG2532 wild beastsG2342, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062, andG2532 fowlsG4071 of the airG3772.
AndG2532 there cameG1096 a voiceG5456 toG4314 himG846, RiseG450, PeterG4074; killG2380, andG2532 eatG5315.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036, Not soG3365, LordG2962; forG3754 I haveG5315 neverG3763 eatenG5315 any thingG3956 that is commonG2839 orG2228 uncleanG169.
AndG2532 the voiceG5456 spake untoG4314 himG846 againG3825+G1537 the second timeG1208, WhatG3739 GodG2316 hath cleansedG2511, that callG2840 notG3361 thouG4771 commonG2840.
ThisG5124 was doneG1096 thriceG1909+G5151: andG2532 the vesselG4632 was received upG353 againG3825 intoG1519 heavenG3772.
NowG1161 whileG5613 PeterG4074 doubtedG1280 inG1722 himselfG1438 whatG5101 this visionG3705 whichG3739 he had seenG1492 should meanG302+G1498, beholdG2400+G2532, the menG435 whichG3588 were sentG649 fromG575 CorneliusG2883 had made enquiryG1331 for Simon'sG4613 houseG3614, and stoodG2186 beforeG1909 the gateG4440,
AndG2532 calledG5455, and askedG4441 whetherG1487 SimonG4613, whichG3588 was surnamedG1941 PeterG4074, were lodgedG3579 thereG1759.
WhileG1161 PeterG4074 thoughtG1760 onG4012 the visionG3705, the SpiritG4151 saidG2036 unto himG846, BeholdG2400, threeG5140 menG435 seekG2212 theeG4571.
AriseG450 thereforeG235, and get thee downG2597, andG2532 goG4198 withG4862 themG846, doubtingG1252 nothingG3367: forG1360 IG1473 have sentG649 themG846.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 went downG2597 toG4314 the menG435 whichG3588 were sentG649 untoG4314 himG846 fromG575 CorneliusG2883; and saidG2036, BeholdG2400, IG1473 amG1510 he whomG3739 ye seekG2212: whatG5101 is the causeG156 whereforeG1223+G3739 ye are comeG3918?
AndG1161 they saidG2036, CorneliusG2883 the centurionG1543, a justG1342 manG435, andG2532 one that fearethG5399 GodG2316, andG5037 of good reportG3140 amongG5259 allG3650 the nationG1484 of the JewsG2453, was warned from GodG5537 byG5259 an holyG40 angelG32 to sendG3343 for theeG4571 intoG1519 hisG846 houseG3624, andG2532 to hearG191 wordsG4487 ofG3844 theeG4675.
ThenG3767 called heG1528 themG846 inG1528, and lodgedG3579 them. AndG1161 on the morrowG1887 PeterG4074 went awayG1831 withG4862 themG846, andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 fromG575 JoppaG2445 accompaniedG4905 himG846.
AndG2532 the morrowG1887 after they enteredG1525 intoG1519 CaesareaG2542. AndG1161 CorneliusG2883 waited forG4328 themG846+G2258, and had called togetherG4779 hisG846 kinsmenG4773 andG2532 nearG316 friendsG5384.
AndG1161 asG5613 PeterG4074 wasG1096 coming inG1525, CorneliusG2883 metG4876 himG846, and fell downG4098 atG1909 his feetG4228, and worshippedG4352 him.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 tookG1453 himG846 upG1453, sayingG3004, Stand upG450; IG2504 myselfG846 alsoG2504 amG1510 a manG444.
AndG2532 as he talkedG4926 with himG846, he went inG1525, andG2532 foundG2147 manyG4183 that were come togetherG4905.
AndG5037 he saidG5346 untoG4314 themG846, YeG5210 knowG1987 howG5613 that it isG2076 an unlawful thingG111 for a manG435 that is a JewG2453 to keep companyG2853, orG2228 come untoG4334 one of another nationG246; butG2532 GodG2316 hath shewedG1166 meG1698 that I should notG3367 callG3004 anyG3367 manG444 commonG2839 orG2228 uncleanG169.
ThereforeG1352+G2532 came IG2064 unto you without gainsayingG369, as soon as I was sent forG3343: I askG4441 thereforeG3767 for whatG5101 intentG3056 ye have sent forG3343 meG3165?
AndG2532 CorneliusG2883 saidG5346, FourG5067 daysG2250 agoG575 I wasG2252 fastingG3522 untilG3360 thisG5026 hourG5610; andG2532 at the ninthG1766 hourG5610 I prayedG4336 inG1722 myG3450 houseG3624, andG2532, beholdG2400, a manG435 stoodG2476 beforeG1799 meG3450 inG1722 brightG2986 clothingG2066,
AndG2532 saidG5346, CorneliusG2883, thyG4675 prayerG4335 is heardG1522, andG2532 thineG4675 almsG1654 are had in remembranceG3415 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.
SendG3992 thereforeG3767 toG1519 JoppaG2445, andG2532 call hitherG3333 SimonG4613, whoseG3739 surname isG1941 PeterG4074; heG3778 is lodgedG3579 inG1722 the houseG3614 of one SimonG4613 a tannerG1038 byG3844 the sea sideG2281: whoG3739, when he comethG3854, shall speakG2980 unto theeG4671.
ImmediatelyG1824 thereforeG3767 I sentG3992 toG4314 theeG4571; andG5037 thouG4771 hast wellG2573 doneG4160 that thou art comeG3854. NowG3568 thereforeG3767 areG3918 weG2249 allG3956 here presentG3918 beforeG1799 GodG2316, to hearG191 all thingsG3956 that are commandedG4367 theeG4671 ofG5259 GodG2316.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 openedG455 his mouthG4750, and saidG2036, OfG1909 a truthG225 I perceiveG2638 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 noG3756 respecter of personsG4381:
ButG235 inG1722 everyG3956 nationG1484 he that fearethG5399 himG846, andG2532 workethG2038 righteousnessG1343, isG2076 acceptedG1184 with himG846.
The wordG3056 whichG3739 God sentG649 unto the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474, preachingG2097 peaceG1515 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: (heG3778 isG2076 LordG2962 of allG3956:)
That wordG4487, I say, yeG5210 knowG1492, which was publishedG1096 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449, and beganG756 fromG575 GalileeG1056, afterG3326 the baptismG908 whichG3739 JohnG2491 preachedG2784;
HowG5613 GodG2316 anointedG5548 JesusG2424 ofG575 NazarethG3478 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with powerG1411: whoG846+G3739 went aboutG1330 doing goodG2109, andG2532 healingG2390 allG3956 that were oppressedG2616 ofG5259 the devilG1228; forG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
AndG2532 weG2249 areG2070 witnessesG3144 of all thingsG3956 whichG3739 he didG4160 bothG5037 inG1722 the landG5561 of the JewsG2453, andG2532 inG1722 JerusalemG2419; whomG3739 they slewG337 and hangedG2910 onG1909 a treeG3586:
HimG5126 GodG2316 raised upG1453 the thirdG5154 dayG2250, andG2532 shewedG1096 himG846 openlyG1717+G1325;
NotG3756 to allG3956 the peopleG2992, butG235 unto witnessesG3144 chosen beforeG4401 ofG5259 GodG2316, even to usG2254, whoG3748 did eatG4906 andG2532 drink withG4844 himG846 afterG3326 heG846 roseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498.
AndG2532 he commandedG3853 usG2254 to preachG2784 unto the peopleG2992, andG2532 to testifyG1263 thatG3754 it isG2076 heG846 whichG3588 was ordainedG3724 ofG5259 GodG2316 to be the JudgeG2923 of quickG2198 andG2532 deadG3498.
To himG5129 giveG3140 allG3956 the prophetsG4396 witnessG3140, that throughG1223 hisG846 nameG3686 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shall receiveG2983 remissionG859 of sinsG266.
While PeterG4074 yetG2089 spakeG2980 theseG5023 wordsG4487, the HolyG40 GhostG4151 fellG1968 onG1909 allG3956 them which heardG191 the wordG3056.
AndG2532 they ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061 which believedG4103 were astonishedG1839, as many asG3745 came withG4905 PeterG4074, becauseG3754 that onG1909 the GentilesG1484 alsoG2532 was poured outG1632 the giftG1431 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ForG1063 they heardG191 themG846 speak withG2980 tonguesG1100, andG2532 magnifyG3170 GodG2316. ThenG5119 answeredG611 PeterG4074,
CanG3385+G1410 any manG5100 forbidG2967 waterG5204, that theseG5128 shouldG907 notG3361 be baptizedG907, whichG3748 have receivedG2983 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 asG2532 well asG2531 weG2249?
AndG5037 he commandedG4367 themG846 to be baptizedG907 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962. ThenG5119 prayed theyG2065 himG846 to tarryG1961 certainG5100 daysG2250.
ForG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 differenceG1293 betweenG5037 the JewG2453 andG2532 the GreekG1672: forG1063 the sameG846 LordG2962 over allG3956 is richG4147 untoG1519 allG3956 that call uponG1941 himG846.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872 and to AaronH175, sayingH559 unto them,
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, TheseH2063 are the beastsH2416 which ye shall eatH398 among all the beastsH929 that are on the earthH776.
Whatsoever partethH6536 the hoofH6541, and is clovenfootedH8156+H8157, and chewethH5927 the cudH1625, among the beastsH929, that shall ye eatH398.
NeverthelessH389 these shall ye not eatH398 of them that chewH5927 the cudH1625, or of them that divideH6536 the hoofH6541: as the camelH1581, because he chewethH5927 the cudH1625, but dividethH6536 not the hoofH6541; he is uncleanH2931 unto you.
And the coneyH8227, because he chewethH5927 the cudH1625, but dividethH6536 not the hoofH6541; he is uncleanH2931 unto you.
And the hareH768, because he chewethH5927 the cudH1625, but dividethH6536 not the hoofH6541; he is uncleanH2931 unto you.
And the swineH2386, though he divideH6536 the hoofH6541, and be clovenfootedH8156+H8157, yet he chewethH1641 not the cudH1625; he is uncleanH2931 to you.
Of their fleshH1320 shall ye not eatH398, and their carcaseH5038 shall ye not touchH5060; they are uncleanH2931 to you.
These shall ye eatH398 of all that are in the watersH4325: whatsoever hath finsH5579 and scalesH7193 in the watersH4325, in the seasH3220, and in the riversH5158, them shall ye eatH398.
And all that have not finsH5579 and scalesH7193 in the seasH3220, and in the riversH5158, of all that moveH8318 in the watersH4325, and of any livingH2416 thingH5315 which is in the watersH4325, they shall be an abominationH8263 unto you:
They shall be even an abominationH8263 unto you; ye shall not eatH398 of their fleshH1320, but ye shall have their carcasesH5038 in abominationH8262.
Whatsoever hath no finsH5579 nor scalesH7193 in the watersH4325, that shall be an abominationH8263 unto you.
And these are they which ye shall have in abominationH8262 amongH4480 the fowlsH5775; they shall not be eatenH398, they are an abominationH8263: the eagleH5404, and the ossifrageH6538, and the osprayH5822,
And the vultureH1676, and the kiteH344 after his kindH4327;
Every ravenH6158 after his kindH4327;
And the owlH1323+H3284, and the night hawkH8464, and the cuckowH7828, and the hawkH5322 after his kindH4327,
And the little owlH3563, and the cormorantH7994, and the great owlH3244,
And the swanH8580, and the pelicanH6893, and the gier eagleH7360,
And the storkH2624, the heronH601 after her kindH4327, and the lapwingH1744, and the batH5847.
All fowlsH5775 that creepH8318, goingH1980 upon all fourH702, shall be an abominationH8263 unto you.
Yet these may ye eatH398 of every flyingH5775 creepingH8318 thing that goethH1980 upon all fourH702, which have legsH3767 aboveH4605 their feetH7272, to leapH5425 withalH2004 upon the earthH776;
Even these of them ye may eatH398; the locustH697 after his kindH4327, and the bald locustH5556 after his kindH4327, and the beetleH2728 after his kindH4327, and the grasshopperH2284 after his kindH4327.
But all other flyingH5775 creeping thingsH8318, which have fourH702 feetH7272, shall be an abominationH8263 unto you.
And for these ye shall be uncleanH2930: whosoever touchethH5060 the carcaseH5038 of them shall be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
And whosoever bearethH5375 ought of the carcaseH5038 of them shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
The carcases of every beastH929 which dividethH6536 the hoofH6541, and is not clovenfootedH8157+H8156, nor chewethH5927 the cudH1625, are uncleanH2931 unto you: every one that touchethH5060 them shall be uncleanH2930.
And whatsoeverH3605+H1992 goethH1980 upon his pawsH3709, among all manner of beastsH2416 that goH1980 on all fourH702, those are uncleanH2931 unto you: whoso touchethH5060 their carcaseH5038 shall be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
And he that bearethH5375 the carcaseH5038 of them shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153: they are uncleanH2931 unto you.
These also shall be uncleanH2931 unto you among the creeping thingsH8318 that creepH8317 upon the earthH776; the weaselH2467, and the mouseH5909, and the tortoiseH6632 after his kindH4327,
And the ferretH604, and the chameleonH3581, and the lizardH3911, and the snailH2546, and the moleH8580.
These are uncleanH2931 to you among all that creepH8318: whosoever doth touchH5060 them, when they be deadH4194, shall be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are deadH4194, doth fallH5307, it shall be uncleanH2930; whether it be any vesselH3627 of woodH6086, or raimentH899, or skinH5785, or sackH8242, whatsoever vesselH3627 it be, wherein any workH4399 is doneH6213, it must be putH935 into waterH4325, and it shall be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153; so it shall be cleansedH2891.
And every earthenH2789 vesselH3627, whereinto any of them fallethH5307+H8432, whatsoever is in it shall be uncleanH2930; and ye shall breakH7665 it.
Of all meatH400 which may be eatenH398, that on which such waterH4325 comethH935 shall be uncleanH2930: and all drinkH4945 that may be drunkH8354 in every such vesselH3627 shall be uncleanH2930.
And every thing whereupon any part of their carcaseH5038 fallethH5307 shall be uncleanH2930; whether it be ovenH8574, or rangesH3600 for pots, they shall be broken downH5422: for they are uncleanH2931, and shall be uncleanH2931 unto you.
Nevertheless a fountainH4599 or pitH953, wherein there is plentyH4723 of waterH4325, shall be cleanH2889: but that which touchethH5060 their carcaseH5038 shall be uncleanH2930. {wherein…: Heb. a gathering together of waters}
And if any part of their carcaseH5038 fallH5307 upon any sowingH2221 seedH2233 which is to be sownH2232, it shall be cleanH2889.
But if any waterH4325 be putH5414 upon the seedH2233, and any part of their carcaseH5038 fallH5307 thereon, it shall be uncleanH2931 unto you.
And if any beastH929, of which ye may eatH402, dieH4191; he that touchethH5060 the carcaseH5038 thereof shall be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
And he that eatethH398 of the carcaseH5038 of it shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153: he also that bearethH5375 the carcaseH5038 of it shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 until the evenH6153.
And every creeping thingH8318 that creepethH8317 upon the earthH776 shall be an abominationH8263; it shall not be eatenH398.
Whatsoever goethH1980 upon the bellyH1512, and whatsoever goethH1980 upon all fourH702, or whatsoever hath moreH7235 feetH7272 among all creeping thingsH8318 that creepH8317 upon the earthH776, them ye shall not eatH398; for they are an abominationH8263. {hath…: Heb. doth multiply feet}
Ye shall not makeH8262 yourselvesH5315 abominableH8262 with any creeping thingH8318 that creepethH8317, neither shall ye make yourselves uncleanH2933 with them, that ye should be defiledH2930 thereby. {yourselves abominable: Heb. your souls, etc}
For I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselvesH6942, and ye shall be holyH6918; for I am holyH6918: neither shall ye defileH2930 yourselvesH5315 with any manner of creeping thingH8318 that creepethH7430 upon the earthH776.
For I am the LORDH3068 that bringethH5927 you up out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to be your GodH430: ye shall therefore be holyH6918, for I am holyH6918.
This is the lawH8451 of the beastsH929, and of the fowlH5775, and of every livingH2416 creatureH5315 that movethH7430 in the watersH4325, and of every creatureH5315 that creepethH8317 upon the earthH776:
To make a differenceH914 between the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889, and between the beastH2416 that may be eatenH398 and the beastH2416 that may not be eatenH398.
Ye are the childrenH1121 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430: ye shall not cutH1413 yourselves, nor makeH7760 any baldnessH7144 between your eyesH5869 for the deadH4191.
For thou art an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 thee to be a peculiarH5459 peopleH5971 unto himself, above all the nationsH5971 that are uponH6440 the earthH127.
Thou shalt not eatH398 any abominable thingH8441.
These are the beastsH929 which ye shall eatH398: the oxH7794, the sheepH7716+H3775, and the goatH5795,
The hartH354, and the roebuckH6643, and the fallow deerH3180, and the wild goatH689, and the pygargH1788, and the wild oxH8377, and the chamoisH2169.
And every beastH929 that partethH6536 the hoofH6541, and cleavethH8157 the cleftH8156 into twoH8147 clawsH6541, and chewethH5927 the cudH1625 among the beastsH929, that ye shall eatH398.
Nevertheless these ye shall not eatH398 of them that chewH5927 the cudH1625, or of them that divideH6536 the clovenH8156 hoofH6541; as the camelH1581, and the hareH768, and the coneyH8227: for they chewH5927 the cudH1625, but divideH6536 not the hoofH6541; therefore they are uncleanH2931 unto you.
And the swineH2386, because it dividethH6536 the hoofH6541, yet cheweth not the cudH1625, it is uncleanH2931 unto you: ye shall not eatH398 of their fleshH1320, nor touchH5060 their dead carcaseH5038.
These ye shall eatH398 of all that are in the watersH4325: all that have finsH5579 and scalesH7193 shall ye eatH398:
And whatsoever hath not finsH5579 and scalesH7193 ye may not eatH398; it is uncleanH2931 unto you.
Of all cleanH2889 birdsH6833 ye shall eatH398.
But these are they of which ye shall not eatH398: the eagleH5404, and the ossifrageH6538, and the osprayH5822,
And the gledeH7201, and the kiteH344, and the vultureH1772 after his kindH4327,
And every ravenH6158 after his kindH4327,
And the owlH1323+H3284, and the night hawkH8464, and the cuckowH7828, and the hawkH5322 after his kindH4327,
The little owlH3563, and the great owlH3244, and the swanH8580,
And the pelicanH6893, and the gier eagleH7360, and the cormorantH7994,
And the storkH2624, and the heronH601 after her kindH4327, and the lapwingH1744, and the batH5847.
And every creeping thingH8318 that fliethH5775 is uncleanH2931 unto you: they shall not be eatenH398.
But of all cleanH2889 fowlsH5775 ye may eatH398.
Ye shall not eatH398 of any thing that dieth of itselfH5038: thou shalt giveH5414 it unto the strangerH1616 that is in thy gatesH8179, that he may eatH398 it; or thou mayest sellH4376 it unto an alienH5237: for thou art an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430. Thou shalt not seetheH1310 a kidH1423 in his mother'sH517 milkH2461.
Thou shalt trulyH6237 titheH6237 all the increaseH8393 of thy seedH2233, that the fieldH7704 bringeth forthH3318 yearH8141 by yearH8141.
And thou shalt eatH398 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, in the placeH4725 which he shall chooseH977 to placeH7931 his nameH8034 there, the titheH4643 of thy cornH1715, of thy wineH8492, and of thine oilH3323, and the firstlingsH1062 of thy herdsH1241 and of thy flocksH6629; that thou mayest learnH3925 to fearH3372 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 alwaysH3117.
And if the wayH1870 be too longH7235 for thee, so thatH3588 thou art not ableH3201 to carryH5375 it; or if the placeH4725 be too farH7368 from thee, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977 to setH7760 his nameH8034 there, when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath blessedH1288 thee:
Then shalt thou turnH5414 it into moneyH3701, and bind upH6696 the moneyH3701 in thine handH3027, and shalt goH1980 unto the placeH4725 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977:
And thou shalt bestowH5414 that moneyH3701 for whatsoever thy soulH5315 lusteth afterH183, for oxenH1241, or for sheepH6629, or for wineH3196, or for strong drinkH7941, or for whatsoever thy soulH5315 desirethH7592: and thou shalt eatH398 there beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and thou shalt rejoiceH8055, thou, and thine householdH1004, {desireth: Heb. asketh of thee}
And the LeviteH3881 that is within thy gatesH8179; thou shalt not forsakeH5800 him; for he hath no partH2506 nor inheritanceH5159 with thee.
At the endH7097 of threeH7969 yearsH8141 thou shalt bring forthH3318 all the titheH4643 of thine increaseH8393 the same yearH8141, and shalt lay it upH3240 within thy gatesH8179:
And the LeviteH3881, (because he hath no partH2506 nor inheritanceH5159 with thee,) and the strangerH1616, and the fatherlessH3490, and the widowH490, which are within thy gatesH8179, shall comeH935, and shall eatH398 and be satisfiedH7646; that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in all the workH4639 of thine handH3027 which thou doestH6213.
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}
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, WhenG3753 thou wastG2258 youngG3501, thou girdedstG2224 thyselfG4572, andG2532 walkedstG4043 whitherG3699 thou wouldestG2309: butG1161 whenG3752 thou shalt be oldG1095, thou shalt stretch forthG1614 thyG4675 handsG5495, andG2532 anotherG243 shall girdG2224 theeG4571, andG2532 carryG5342 thee whitherG3699 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 as great delightH2656 in burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificesH2077, as in obeyingH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068? Behold, to obeyH8085 is betterH2896 than sacrificeH2077, and to hearkenH7181 than the fatH2459 of ramsH352.
