ThenG5119 shall the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 be likenedG3666 unto tenG1176 virginsG3933, whichG3748 tookG2983 theirG846 lampsG2985, and went forthG1831 to meetG529+G1519 the bridegroomG3566.
AndG1161 fiveG4002 ofG1537 themG846 wereG2258 wiseG5429, andG2532 fiveG4002 were foolishG3474.
TheyG3748 that were foolishG3474 tookG2983 theirG846+G1438 lampsG2985, and tookG2983 noG3756 oilG1637 withG3326 themG1438:
ButG1161 the wiseG5429 tookG2983 oilG1637 inG1722 theirG846 vesselsG30 withG3326 theirG846 lampsG2985.
WhileG1161 the bridegroomG3566 tarriedG5549, they allG3956 slumberedG3573 andG2532 sleptG2518.
AndG1161 at midnightG3319+G3571 there was a cryG2906 madeG1096, BeholdG2400, the bridegroomG3566 comethG2064; go ye outG1831 toG1519 meetG529 himG846.
ThenG5119 allG3956 thoseG1565 virginsG3933 aroseG1453, andG2532 trimmedG2885 theirG846 lampsG2985.
AndG1161 the foolishG3474 saidG2036 unto the wiseG5429, GiveG1325 usG2254 ofG1537 yourG5216 oilG1637; forG3754 ourG2257 lampsG2985 are gone outG4570. {gone out: or, going out}
ButG1161 the wiseG5429 answeredG611, sayingG3004, Not so; lestG3379 there beG714 notG3756 enoughG714 for usG2254 andG2532 youG5213: butG1161 go yeG4198 ratherG3123 to themG4314 that sellG4453, andG2532 buyG59 for yourselvesG1438.
AndG1161 while theyG846 wentG565 to buyG59, the bridegroomG3566 cameG2064; andG2532 they that were readyG2092 went inG1525 withG3326 himG846 toG1519 the marriageG1062: andG2532 the doorG2374 was shutG2808.
AfterwardG1161+G5305 cameG2064 alsoG2532 the otherG3062 virginsG3933, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 to usG2254.
ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, I knowG1492 youG5209 notG3756.
WatchG1127 thereforeG3767, forG3754 ye knowG1492 neitherG3756 the dayG2250 norG3761 the hourG5610 whereinG1722+G3739 the SonG5207 of manG444 comethG2064.
ForG1063 the kingdom of heaven is asG5618 a manG444 travelling into a far countryG589, who calledG2564 his ownG2398 servantsG1401, andG2532 deliveredG3860 unto themG846 hisG846 goodsG5224.
AndG2532 unto oneG3739+G3303 he gaveG1325 fiveG4002 talentsG5007+G1161, to anotherG3739 twoG1417, andG1161 to anotherG3739 oneG1520; to every manG1538 accordingG2596 to his severalG2398 abilityG1411; andG2532 straightwayG2112 took his journeyG589. {talents: a talent is 187.pounds 10.ten shillings, chap.18.24}
ThenG1161 he that had receivedG2983 the fiveG4002 talentsG5007 wentG4198 and tradedG2038 withG1722 the sameG846, andG2532 madeG4160 them otherG243 fiveG4002 talentsG5007.
AndG2532 likewiseG5615 he that had receivedG3588 twoG1417, heG846 alsoG2532 gainedG2770 otherG243 twoG1417.
ButG1161 he that had receivedG2983 oneG1520 wentG565 and diggedG3736 inG1722 the earthG1093, andG2532 hidG613 hisG846 lord'sG2962 moneyG694.
AfterG1161+G3326 a longG4183 timeG5550 the lordG2962 of thoseG1565 servantsG1401 comethG2064, andG2532 reckonethG4868+G3056 withG3326 themG846.
And soG2532 he that had receivedG2983 fiveG4002 talentsG5007 cameG4334 and broughtG4374 otherG243 fiveG4002 talentsG5007, sayingG3004, LordG2962, thou deliveredstG3860 unto meG3427 fiveG4002 talentsG5007: beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 besideG1909 themG846 fiveG4002 talentsG5007 moreG243.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, thou goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401: thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
He alsoG2532 that had receivedG2983 twoG1417 talentsG5007 cameG4334 and saidG2036, LordG2962, thou deliveredstG3860 unto meG3427 twoG1417 talentsG5007: beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 twoG1417 otherG243 talentsG5007 besideG1909 themG846.
HisG846 lordG2962 saidG5346 unto himG846, Well doneG2095, goodG18 andG2532 faithfulG4103 servantG1401; thou hast beenG2258 faithfulG4103 overG1909 a few thingsG3641, I will makeG2525 theeG4571 rulerG2525 overG1909 many thingsG4183: enter thouG1525 intoG1519 the joyG5479 of thyG4675 lordG2962.
ThenG1161+G2532 he which had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 talentG5007 cameG4334 and saidG2036, LordG2962, I knewG1097 theeG4571 thatG3754 thou artG1488 an hardG4642 manG444, reapingG2325 whereG3699 thou hastG4687 notG3756 sownG4687, andG2532 gatheringG4863 whereG3606 thou hastG1287 notG3756 strawedG1287:
AndG2532 I was afraidG5399, and wentG565 and hidG2928 thyG4675 talentG5007 inG1722 the earthG1093: loG2396, there thou hastG2192 that is thineG4674.
HisG846 lordG2962 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou wickedG4190 andG2532 slothfulG3636 servantG1401, thou knewestG1492 thatG3754 I reapG2325 whereG3699 I sowedG4687 notG3756, andG2532 gatherG4863 whereG3606 I haveG1287 notG3756 strawedG1287:
ThouG4571 oughtestG1163 thereforeG3767 to have putG906 myG3450 moneyG694 to the exchangersG5133, andG2532 then at my comingG2064 IG1473 shouldG302 have receivedG2865 mine ownG1699 withG4862 usuryG5110.
TakeG142 thereforeG3767 the talentG5007 fromG575 himG846, andG2532 giveG1325 it unto him which hathG2192 tenG1176 talentsG5007.
ForG1063 unto every oneG3956 that hathG2192 shall be givenG1325, andG2532 he shall have abundanceG4052: butG1161 fromG575 himG846 that hathG2192 notG3361 shall be taken awayG142+G575 evenG2532 that whichG3739 he hathG2192.
AndG2532 cast yeG1544 the unprofitableG888 servantG1401 intoG1519 outerG1857 darknessG4655: thereG1563 shall beG2071 weepingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
WhenG1161+G3752 the SonG5207 of manG444 shall comeG2064 inG1722 hisG846 gloryG1391, andG2532 allG3956 the holyG40 angelsG32 withG3326 himG846, thenG5119 shall he sitG2523 uponG1909 the throneG2362 of hisG846 gloryG1391:
AndG2532 beforeG1715 himG846 shall be gatheredG4863 allG3956 nationsG1484: andG2532 he shall separateG873 themG846 oneG240 fromG575 anotherG240, asG5618 a shepherdG4166 dividethG873 his sheepG4263 fromG575 the goatsG2056:
AndG2532 he shall setG2476+G3303 the sheepG4263 onG1537 hisG846 right handG1188, butG1161 the goatsG2055 onG1537 the leftG2176.
ThenG5119 shall the KingG935 sayG2046 unto them onG1537 hisG846 right handG1188, ComeG1205, ye blessedG2127 of myG3450 FatherG3962, inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 preparedG2090 for youG5213 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889:
ForG1063 I was an hungredG3983, andG2532 ye gaveG1325 meG3427 meatG5315: I was thirstyG1372, andG2532 ye gaveG4222 meG3165 drinkG4222: I wasG2252 a strangerG3581, andG2532 ye tookG4863 meG3165 inG4863:
NakedG1131, andG2532 ye clothedG4016 meG3165: I was sickG770, andG2532 ye visitedG1980 meG3165: I wasG2252 inG1722 prisonG5438, andG2532 ye cameG2064 untoG4314 meG3165.
ThenG5119 shall the righteousG1342 answerG611 himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962, whenG4219 saw weG1492 theeG4571 an hungredG3983, andG2532 fedG5142 thee? orG2228 thirstyG1372, andG2532 gave thee drinkG4222?
WhenG4219 saw weG1492 theeG4571 a strangerG3581, andG2532 took thee inG4863? orG2228 nakedG1131, andG2532 clothedG4016 thee?
Or whenG4219 saw weG1492 theeG4571 sickG772, orG2228 inG1722 prisonG5438, andG2532 cameG2064 untoG4314 theeG4571?
AndG2532 the KingG935 shall answerG611 and sayG2046 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, InasmuchG1909 asG3745 ye have doneG4160 it unto oneG1520 of the leastG1646 of theseG5130 myG3450 brethrenG80, ye have doneG4160 it unto meG1698.
ThenG5119 shall he sayG2046 alsoG2532 unto them onG1537 the left handG2176, DepartG4198 fromG575 meG1700, ye cursedG2672, intoG1519 everlastingG166 fireG4442, preparedG2090 for the devilG1228 andG2532 hisG846 angelsG32:
ForG1063 I was an hungredG3983, andG2532 ye gaveG1325 meG3427 noG3756 meatG5315: I was thirstyG1372, andG2532 ye gaveG4222 meG3165 noG3756 drinkG4222:
I wasG2252 a strangerG3581, andG2532 ye tookG4863 meG3165 notG3756 inG4863: nakedG1131, andG2532 ye clothedG4016 meG3165 notG3756: sickG772, andG2532 inG1722 prisonG5438, andG2532 ye visitedG1980 meG3165 notG3756.
ThenG5119 shall theyG846 alsoG2532 answerG611 himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962, whenG4219 saw weG1492 theeG4571 an hungredG3983, orG2228 athirstG1372, orG2228 a strangerG3581, orG2228 nakedG1131, orG2228 sickG772, orG2228 inG1722 prisonG5438, andG2532 didG1247 notG3756 ministerG1247 unto theeG4671?
ThenG5119 shall he answerG611 themG846, sayingG3004, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, InasmuchG1909 asG3745 ye didG4160 it notG3756 to oneG1520 of the leastG1646 of theseG5130, ye didG4160 it notG3761 to meG1698.
AndG2532 theseG3778 shall go awayG565 intoG1519 everlastingG166 punishmentG2851: butG1161 the righteousG1342 intoG1519 lifeG2222 eternalG166.
PaulG3972, andG2532 SilvanusG4610, andG2532 TimotheusG5095, unto the churchG1577 of the ThessaloniansG2331 which is inG1722 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 andG2532 in the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: GraceG5485 be unto youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We give thanksG2168 to GodG2316 alwaysG3842 forG4012 youG5216 allG3956, makingG4160 mentionG3417 of youG5216 inG1909 ourG2257 prayersG4335;
RememberingG3421 without ceasingG89 yourG5216 workG2041 of faithG4102, andG2532 labourG2873 of loveG26, andG2532 patienceG5281 of hopeG1680 in ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, in the sightG1715 of GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 FatherG3962;
KnowingG1492, brethrenG80 belovedG25, yourG5216 electionG1589 ofG5259 GodG2316. {beloved…: or, beloved of God, your election}
ForG3754 ourG2257 gospelG2098 cameG1096 notG3756 untoG1519 youG5209 inG1722 wordG3056 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 powerG1411, andG2532 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 inG1722 muchG4183 assuranceG4136; asG2531 ye knowG1492 what manner of menG3634 we wereG1096 amongG1722 youG5213 forG1223 yourG5209 sake.
AndG2532 yeG5210 becameG1096 followersG3402 of usG2257, andG2532 of the LordG2962, having receivedG1209 the wordG3056 inG1722 muchG4183 afflictionG2347, withG3326 joyG5479 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
SoG5620 that yeG5209 wereG1096 ensamplesG5179 to allG3956 that believeG4100 inG1722 MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882.
ForG1063 fromG575 youG5216 sounded outG1837 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 notG3756 onlyG3440 inG1722 MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117 yourG5216 faithG4102 toG4314 God-wardG2316 is spread abroadG1831; soG5620 that weG2248 needG5532 notG3361+G2192 to speakG2980 any thingG5100.
ForG1063 theyG518 themselvesG846 shewG518 ofG4012 usG2257 what mannerG3697 of entering inG1529 we hadG2192 untoG4314 youG5209, andG2532 howG4459 ye turnedG1994 toG4314 GodG2316 fromG575 idolsG1497 to serveG1398 the livingG2198 andG2532 trueG228 GodG2316;
AndG2532 to wait forG362 hisG846 SonG5207 fromG1537 heavenG3772, whomG3739 he raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, even JesusG2424, whichG3588 deliveredG4506 usG2248 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG2064.
NowG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, byG5228 the comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 by ourG2257 gathering togetherG1997 untoG1909 himG846, {unto him: or, around him}
ThatG1519 yeG5209 beG4531 notG3361 soonG5030 shakenG4531 inG575 mindG3563, orG3383 be troubledG2360, neitherG3383 byG1223 spiritG4151, norG3383 byG1223 wordG3056, norG3383 byG1223 letterG1992 asG5613 fromG1223 usG2257, asG5613 thatG3754 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547 is at handG1764.
LetG1818 noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG1818 youG5209 byG2596 anyG3367 meansG5158: forG3754 that day shall not come, exceptG3362 there comeG2064 a falling awayG646 firstG4412, andG2532 that manG444 of sinG266 be revealedG601, the sonG5207 of perditionG684;
WhoG3588 opposethG480 andG2532 exaltethG5229 himself aboveG1909 allG3956 that is calledG3004 GodG2316, orG2228 that is worshippedG4574; soG5620 that heG846 asG5613 GodG2316 sittethG2523 inG1519 the templeG3485 of GodG2316, shewingG584 himselfG1438 thatG3754 he isG2076 GodG2316.
Remember yeG3421 notG3756, thatG3754, when I wasG5607 yetG2089 withG4314 youG5209, I toldG3004 youG5213 these thingsG5023?
AndG2532 nowG3568 ye knowG1492 what withholdethG2722 thatG1519 heG846 might be revealedG601 inG1722 hisG1438 timeG2540. {withholdeth: or, holdeth}
ForG1063 the mysteryG3466 of iniquityG458 dothG1754 alreadyG2235 workG1754: onlyG3440 he who nowG737 lettethG2722 will let, untilG2193 he be takenG1096 out ofG1537 the wayG3319.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shallG601 that WickedG459 be revealedG601, whomG3739 the LordG2962 shall consumeG355 with the spiritG4151 of hisG846 mouthG4750, andG2532 shall destroyG2673 with the brightnessG2015 of hisG846 comingG3952:
Even him, whoseG3739 comingG3952 isG2076 afterG2596 the workingG1753 of SatanG4567 withG1722 allG3956 powerG1411 andG2532 signsG4592 andG2532 lyingG5579 wondersG5059,
AndG2532 withG1722 allG3956 deceivablenessG539 of unrighteousnessG93 inG1722 them that perishG622; becauseG473+G3739 they receivedG1209 notG3756 the loveG26 of the truthG225, thatG1519 theyG846 might be savedG4982.
AndG2532 for thisG5124 causeG1223 GodG2316 shall sendG3992 themG846 strongG1753 delusionG4106, thatG1519 theyG846 should believeG4100 a lieG5579:
ThatG2443 they allG3956 might be damnedG2919 whoG3588 believedG4100 notG3361 the truthG225, butG235 had pleasureG2106 inG1722 unrighteousnessG93.
ButG1161 weG2249 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG2316 forG4012 youG5216, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG5209 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225:
WhereuntoG1519+G3739 he calledG2564 youG5209 byG1223 ourG2257 gospelG2098, toG1519 the obtainingG4047 of the gloryG1391 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
ThereforeG686+G3767, brethrenG80, stand fastG4739, andG2532 holdG2902 the traditionsG3862 whichG3739 ye have been taughtG1321, whetherG1535 byG1223 wordG3056, orG1535+G1223 ourG2257 epistleG1992.
NowG1161 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846, andG2532 GodG2316, evenG2532 ourG2257 FatherG3962, whichG3588 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG1325 us everlastingG166 consolationG3874 andG2532 goodG18 hopeG1680 throughG1722 graceG5485,
ComfortG3870 yourG5216 heartsG2588, andG2532 stablishG4741 youG5209 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 wordG3056 andG2532 workG2041.
ButG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG2309 youG5209 to be ignorantG50, brethrenG80, concerningG4012 them which are asleepG2837, thatG3363 ye sorrowG3076 notG3363, evenG2532 asG2531 othersG3062 whichG3588 haveG2192 noG3361 hopeG1680.
ForG1063 ifG1487 we believeG4100 thatG3754 JesusG2424 diedG599 andG2532 rose againG450, even soG3779 them alsoG2532 which sleepG2837 inG1223 JesusG2424 willG71 GodG2316 bringG71 withG4862 himG846.
ForG1063 thisG5124 we sayG3004 unto youG5213 byG1722 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, thatG3754 weG2249 whichG3588 are aliveG2198 and remainG4035 untoG1519 the comingG3952 of the LordG2962 shallG5348 notG3364 preventG5348 them whichG3588 are asleepG2837. {prevent: or, come before, or, anticipate, or, precede}
ForG3754 the LordG2962 himselfG846 shall descendG2597 fromG575 heavenG3772 withG1722 a shoutG2752, withG1722 the voiceG5456 of the archangelG743, andG2532 withG1722 the trumpG4536 of GodG2316: andG2532 the deadG3498 inG1722 ChristG5547 shall riseG450 firstG4412:
ThenG1899 weG2249 whichG3588 are aliveG2198 and remainG4035 shall be caught upG726 togetherG260 withG4862 themG846 inG1722 the cloudsG3507, toG1519 meetG529 the LordG2962 inG1519 the airG109: andG2532 soG3779 shall weG2071 everG3842 beG2071 withG4862 the LordG2962.
NowG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, byG5228 the comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 by ourG2257 gathering togetherG1997 untoG1909 himG846, {unto him: or, around him}
ThisG5124 knowG1097 alsoG1161, thatG3754 inG1722 the lastG2078 daysG2250 perilousG5467 timesG2540 shall comeG1764.
ForG1063 menG444 shall beG2071 lovers of their own selvesG5367, covetousG5366, boastersG213, proudG5244, blasphemersG989, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118, unthankfulG884, unholyG462,
Without natural affectionG794, trucebreakersG786, false accusersG1228, incontinentG193, fierceG434, despisers of those that are goodG865, {false…: or, one who foments strife}
TraitorsG4273, headyG4312, highmindedG5187, lovers of pleasuresG5369 moreG3123 thanG2228 lovers of GodG5377;
HavingG2192 a formG3446 of godlinessG2150, butG1161 denyingG720 the powerG1411 thereofG846: fromG2532 suchG5128 turn awayG665.
ThouG4771 thereforeG3767, myG3450 sonG5043, be strongG1743 inG1722 the graceG5485 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
AndG2532 the thingsG3739 that thou hast heardG191 ofG3844 meG1700 amongG1223 manyG4183 witnessesG3144, the sameG5023 commit thouG3908 to faithfulG4103 menG444, whoG3748 shall beG2071 ableG2425 to teachG1321 othersG2087 alsoG2532. {among: or, by}
ThouG4771 thereforeG3767 endure hardnessG2553, asG5613 a goodG2570 soldierG4757 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
No manG3762 that warrethG4754 entangleth himselfG1707 with the affairsG4230 of this lifeG979; thatG2443 he may pleaseG700 him who hath chosen him to be a soldierG4758.
AndG1161 ifG1437 a manG5100 alsoG2532 striveG118 for masteries, yet is heG4737 notG3756 crownedG4737, exceptG3362 he striveG118 lawfullyG3545.
The husbandmanG1092 that labourethG2872 must beG1163 firstG4413 partakerG3335 of the fruitsG2590. {that…: or, labouring first, must be partaker of the fruits}
ConsiderG3539 whatG3739 I sayG3004; andG1063 the LordG2962 giveG1325 theeG4671 understandingG4907 inG1722 all thingsG3956.
RememberG3421 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ofG1537 the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 was raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 according toG2596 myG3450 gospelG2098:
WhereinG1722+G3739 I suffer troubleG2553, asG5613 an evil doerG2557, even untoG3360 bondsG1199; butG235 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 isG1210 notG3756 boundG1210.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 I endureG5278 all thingsG3956 forG1588 the elect'sG1588 sakesG1223, thatG2443 theyG846 mayG5177 alsoG2532 obtainG5177 the salvationG4991 whichG3588 is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 withG3326 eternalG166 gloryG1391.
It is a faithfulG4103 sayingG3056: ForG1063 ifG1487 we be dead withG4880 him, we shallG4800 alsoG2532 live withG4800 him:
IfG1487 we sufferG5278, we shallG4821 alsoG2532 reign withG4821 him: ifG1487 we denyG720 him, he alsoG2548 will denyG720 usG2248:
IfG1487 we believe notG569, yet heG1565 abidethG3306 faithfulG4103: he cannotG3756+G1410 denyG720 himselfG1438.
Of these thingsG5023 put them in remembranceG5279, chargingG1263 them beforeG1799 the LordG2962 that they striveG3054 notG3361 about wordsG3054 toG1519 noG3762 profitG5539, but toG1909 the subvertingG2692 of the hearersG191.
StudyG4704 to shewG3936 thyselfG4572 approvedG1384 unto GodG2316, a workmanG2040 that needeth not to be ashamedG422, rightly dividingG3718 the wordG3056 of truthG225.
ButG1161 shunG4026 profaneG952 and vain babblingsG2757: forG1063 they will increaseG4298 untoG1909 moreG4119 ungodlinessG763.
AndG2532 theirG846 wordG3056 will eatG2192+G3542 asG5613 doth a cankerG1044: of whomG3739 isG2076 HymenaeusG5211 andG2532 PhiletusG5372; {canker: or, gangrene}
WhoG3748 concerningG4012 the truthG225 have erredG795, sayingG3004 that the resurrectionG386 is pastG1096 alreadyG2235; andG2532 overthrowG396 the faithG4102 of someG5100.
NeverthelessG3305 the foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standethG2476 sureG4731, havingG2192 thisG5026 sealG4973, The LordG2962 knowethG1097 them that areG5607 hisG846. AndG2532, LetG868 every oneG3956 that namethG3687 the nameG3686 of ChristG5547 departG868 fromG575 iniquityG93. {sure: or, steady}
ButG1161 inG1722 a greatG3173 houseG3614 there areG2076 notG3756 onlyG3440 vesselsG4632 of goldG5552 andG2532 of silverG693, butG235 alsoG2532 of woodG3585 andG2532 of earthG3749; andG2532 someG3739+G3303 toG1519 honourG5092, andG1161 someG3739 toG1519 dishonourG819.
IfG1437 a manG5100 thereforeG3767 purgeG1571 himselfG1438 fromG575 theseG5130, he shall beG2071 a vesselG4632 untoG1519 honourG5092, sanctifiedG37, andG2532 meetG2173 for the master's useG1203, and preparedG2090 untoG1519 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041.
FleeG5343 alsoG1161 youthfulG3512 lustsG1939: butG1161 followG1377 righteousnessG1343, faithG4102, charityG26, peaceG1515, withG3326 them that call onG1941 the LordG2962 out ofG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588.
ButG1161 foolishG3474 andG2532 unlearnedG521 questionsG2214 avoidG3868, knowingG1492 thatG3754 they do genderG1080 strifesG3163.
AndG1161 the servantG1401 of the LordG2962 mustG1163 notG3756 striveG3164; butG235 beG1511 gentleG2261 untoG4314 allG3956 men, apt to teachG1317, patientG420, {patient: or, forbearing}
InG1722 meeknessG4236 instructingG3811 those that oppose themselvesG475; ifG3379 GodG2316 peradventureG3379 will giveG1325 themG846 repentanceG3341 toG1519 the acknowledgingG1922 of the truthG225;
AndG2532 that they may recover themselvesG366 out ofG1537 the snareG3803 of the devilG1228, who are taken captiveG2221 byG5259 himG846 atG1519 hisG1565 willG2307. {recover…: Gr. awake} {taken…: Gr. taken alive}
IG1473 chargeG1263 thee thereforeG3767 beforeG1799 GodG2316, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 shallG3195 judgeG2919 the quickG2198 andG2532 the deadG3498 atG2596 hisG846 appearingG2015 andG2532 hisG846 kingdomG932;
PreachG2784 the wordG3056; be instantG2186 in seasonG2122, out of seasonG171; reproveG1651, rebukeG2008, exhortG3870 withG1722 allG3956 longsufferingG3115 andG2532 doctrineG1322.
ForG1063 the timeG2540 will comeG2071 whenG3753 they willG430 notG3756 endureG430 soundG5198 doctrineG1319; butG235 afterG2596 their ownG2398 lustsG1939 shall they heapG2002 to themselvesG1438 teachersG1320, having itchingG2833 earsG189;
AndG2532 they shall turn awayG3303+G654 their earsG189 fromG575 the truthG225, andG1161 shall be turnedG1624 untoG1909 fablesG3454.
ButG1161 watchG3525 thouG4771 inG1722 all thingsG3956, endure afflictionsG2553, doG4160 the workG2041 of an evangelistG2099, make full proofG4135 of thyG4675 ministryG1248. {make…: or, fulfil}
ForG1063 IG1473 amG4689 nowG2235 ready to be offeredG4689, andG2532 the timeG2540 of myG1699 departureG359 is at handG2186.
I have foughtG75 a goodG2570 fightG73, I have finishedG5055 my courseG1408, I have keptG5083 the faithG4102:
HenceforthG3063 there is laid upG606 for meG3427 a crownG4735 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3739 the LordG2962, the righteousG1342 judgeG2923, shall giveG591 meG3427 atG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250: andG1161 notG3756 to meG1698 onlyG3440, butG235 unto all themG3956 alsoG2532 that loveG25 hisG846 appearingG2015.
Do thy diligenceG4704 to comeG2064 shortlyG5030 untoG4314 meG3165:
ForG1063 DemasG1214 hath forsakenG1459 meG3165, having lovedG25 this presentG3568 worldG165, andG2532 is departedG4198 untoG1519 ThessalonicaG2332; CrescensG2913 toG1519 GalatiaG1053, TitusG5103 untoG1519 DalmatiaG1149.
OnlyG3441 LukeG3065 isG2076 withG3326 meG1700. TakeG353 MarkG3138, and bring himG71 withG3326 theeG4572: forG1063 he isG2076 profitableG2173 to meG3427 forG1519 the ministryG1248.
AndG1161 TychicusG5190 have I sentG649 toG1519 EphesusG2181.
The clokeG5341 thatG3739 I leftG620 atG1722 TroasG5174 withG3844 CarpusG2591, when thou comestG2064, bringG5342 with thee, andG2532 the booksG975, but especiallyG3122 the parchmentsG3200.
AlexanderG223 the coppersmithG5471 didG1731 meG3427 muchG4183 evilG2556: the LordG2962 rewardG591 himG846 according toG2596 hisG846 worksG2041:
Of whomG3739 beG5442 thouG4771 wareG5442 alsoG2532; forG1063 he hathG436 greatlyG3029 withstoodG436 ourG2251 wordsG3056. {our words: or, our preachings}
AtG1722 myG3450 firstG4413 answerG627 no manG3762 stoodG4836 with meG3427, butG235 allG3956 men forsookG1459 meG3165: I pray God that it mayG3049 notG3361 be laidG3049 to their chargeG846.
NotwithstandingG1161 the LordG2962 stoodG3936 with meG3427, andG2532 strengthenedG1743 meG3165; thatG2443 byG1223 meG1700 the preachingG2782 might be fully knownG4135, andG2532 that allG3956 the GentilesG1484 might hearG191: andG2532 I was deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the mouthG4750 of the lionG3023.
AndG2532 the LordG2962 shall deliverG4506 meG3165 fromG575 everyG3956 evilG4190 workG2041, andG2532 will preserveG4982 me untoG1519 hisG846 heavenlyG2032 kingdomG932: to whomG3739 be gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
SaluteG782 PriscaG4251 andG2532 AquilaG207, andG2532 the householdG3624 of OnesiphorusG3683.
ErastusG2037 abodeG3306 atG1722 CorinthG2882: butG1161 TrophimusG5161 have I leftG620 atG1722 MiletumG3399 sickG770.
Do thy diligenceG4704 to comeG2064 beforeG4253 winterG5494. EubulusG2103 greetethG782 theeG4571, andG2532 PudensG4227, andG2532 LinusG3044, andG2532 ClaudiaG2803, andG2532 allG3956 the brethrenG80.
The LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 thyG4675 spiritG4151. GraceG5485 be withG3326 youG5216. AmenG281. {The second epistle unto Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second time.}
NowG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, byG5228 the comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 by ourG2257 gathering togetherG1997 untoG1909 himG846, {unto him: or, around him}
ThatG1519 yeG5209 beG4531 notG3361 soonG5030 shakenG4531 inG575 mindG3563, orG3383 be troubledG2360, neitherG3383 byG1223 spiritG4151, norG3383 byG1223 wordG3056, norG3383 byG1223 letterG1992 asG5613 fromG1223 usG2257, asG5613 thatG3754 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547 is at handG1764.
LetG1818 noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG1818 youG5209 byG2596 anyG3367 meansG5158: forG3754 that day shall not come, exceptG3362 there comeG2064 a falling awayG646 firstG4412, andG2532 that manG444 of sinG266 be revealedG601, the sonG5207 of perditionG684;
WhoG3588 opposethG480 andG2532 exaltethG5229 himself aboveG1909 allG3956 that is calledG3004 GodG2316, orG2228 that is worshippedG4574; soG5620 that heG846 asG5613 GodG2316 sittethG2523 inG1519 the templeG3485 of GodG2316, shewingG584 himselfG1438 thatG3754 he isG2076 GodG2316.
Remember yeG3421 notG3756, thatG3754, when I wasG5607 yetG2089 withG4314 youG5209, I toldG3004 youG5213 these thingsG5023?
AndG2532 nowG3568 ye knowG1492 what withholdethG2722 thatG1519 heG846 might be revealedG601 inG1722 hisG1438 timeG2540. {withholdeth: or, holdeth}
ForG1063 the mysteryG3466 of iniquityG458 dothG1754 alreadyG2235 workG1754: onlyG3440 he who nowG737 lettethG2722 will let, untilG2193 he be takenG1096 out ofG1537 the wayG3319.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shallG601 that WickedG459 be revealedG601, whomG3739 the LordG2962 shall consumeG355 with the spiritG4151 of hisG846 mouthG4750, andG2532 shall destroyG2673 with the brightnessG2015 of hisG846 comingG3952:
Even him, whoseG3739 comingG3952 isG2076 afterG2596 the workingG1753 of SatanG4567 withG1722 allG3956 powerG1411 andG2532 signsG4592 andG2532 lyingG5579 wondersG5059,
AndG2532 withG1722 allG3956 deceivablenessG539 of unrighteousnessG93 inG1722 them that perishG622; becauseG473+G3739 they receivedG1209 notG3756 the loveG26 of the truthG225, thatG1519 theyG846 might be savedG4982.
AndG2532 for thisG5124 causeG1223 GodG2316 shall sendG3992 themG846 strongG1753 delusionG4106, thatG1519 theyG846 should believeG4100 a lieG5579:
ThatG2443 they allG3956 might be damnedG2919 whoG3588 believedG4100 notG3361 the truthG225, butG235 had pleasureG2106 inG1722 unrighteousnessG93.
ButG1161 weG2249 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG2316 forG4012 youG5216, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG5209 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225:
WhereuntoG1519+G3739 he calledG2564 youG5209 byG1223 ourG2257 gospelG2098, toG1519 the obtainingG4047 of the gloryG1391 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
ThereforeG686+G3767, brethrenG80, stand fastG4739, andG2532 holdG2902 the traditionsG3862 whichG3739 ye have been taughtG1321, whetherG1535 byG1223 wordG3056, orG1535+G1223 ourG2257 epistleG1992.
NowG1161 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846, andG2532 GodG2316, evenG2532 ourG2257 FatherG3962, whichG3588 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG1325 us everlastingG166 consolationG3874 andG2532 goodG18 hopeG1680 throughG1722 graceG5485,
ComfortG3870 yourG5216 heartsG2588, andG2532 stablishG4741 youG5209 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 wordG3056 andG2532 workG2041.
Unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 of EphesusG2179 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he that holdethG2902 the sevenG2033 starsG792 inG1722 hisG846 right handG1188, whoG3588 walkethG4043 inG1722 the midstG3319 of the sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticksG3087;
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 thyG4675 labourG2873, andG2532 thyG4675 patienceG5281, andG2532 howG3754 thou canstG1410 notG3756 bearG941 them which are evilG2556: andG2532 thou hast triedG3985 them which sayG5335 they areG1511 apostlesG652, andG2532 areG1526 notG3756, andG2532 hast foundG2147 themG846 liarsG5571:
AndG2532 hast borneG941, andG2532 hastG2192 patienceG5281, andG2532 forG1223 myG3450 name's sakeG1223+G3686 hast labouredG2872, andG2532 hastG2577 notG3756 faintedG2577.
NeverthelessG235 I haveG2192 somewhat againstG2596 theeG4675, becauseG3754 thou hast leftG863 thyG4675 firstG4413 loveG26.
RememberG3421 thereforeG3767 from whenceG4159 thou art fallenG1601, andG2532 repentG3340, andG2532 doG4160 the firstG4413 worksG2041; or elseG1490 I will comeG2064 unto theeG4671 quicklyG5035, andG2532 will removeG2795 thyG4675 candlestickG3087 out ofG1537 hisG846 placeG5117, exceptG3362 thou repentG3340.
ButG235 thisG5124 thou hastG2192, thatG3754 thou hatestG3404 the deedsG2041 of the NicolaitansG3531, whichG3739 I alsoG2504 hateG3404.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577; To himG846 that overcomethG3528 will I giveG1325 to eatG5315 ofG1537 the treeG3586 of lifeG2222, whichG3739 isG2076 inG1722 the midstG3319 of the paradiseG3857 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 in SmyrnaG4668 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the firstG4413 andG2532 the lastG2078, whichG3739 wasG1096 deadG3498, andG2532 is aliveG2198;
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 tribulationG2347, andG2532 povertyG4432, (butG1161 thou artG1488 richG4145) andG2532 I know the blasphemyG988 of them whichG3588 sayG3004 theyG1438 areG1511 JewsG2453, andG2532 areG1526 notG3756, butG235 are the synagogueG4864 of SatanG4567.
FearG5399 noneG3367 of those things whichG3739 thou shaltG3195 sufferG3958: beholdG2400, the devilG1228 shallG3195 castG906 some ofG1537 youG5216 intoG1519 prisonG5438, thatG2443 ye may be triedG3985; andG2532 ye shall haveG2192 tribulationG2347 tenG1176 daysG2250: be thouG1096 faithfulG4103 untoG891 deathG2288, andG2532 I will giveG1325 theeG4671 a crownG4735 of lifeG2222.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577; He that overcomethG3528 shallG91 notG3364 be hurtG91 ofG1537 the secondG1208 deathG2288.
AndG2532 to the angelG32 of the churchG1577 inG1722 PergamosG4010 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he which hathG2192 the sharpG3691 swordG4501 with two edgesG1366;
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 whereG4226 thou dwellestG2730, even whereG3699 Satan'sG4567 seatG2362 is: andG2532 thou holdest fastG2902 myG3450 nameG3686, andG2532 hastG720 notG3756 deniedG720 myG3450 faithG4102, evenG2532 inG1722 those daysG2250 whereinG1722+G3739 AntipasG493 was myG3450 faithfulG4103 martyrG3144, whoG3739 was slainG615 amongG3844 youG5213, whereG3699 SatanG4567 dwellethG2730.
ButG235 I haveG2192 a few thingsG3641 againstG2596 theeG4675, becauseG3754 thou hastG2192 thereG1563 them that holdG2902 the doctrineG1322 of BalaamG903, whoG3739 taughtG1722+G1321 BalacG904 to castG906 a stumblingblockG4625 beforeG1799 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474, to eatG5315 things sacrificed unto idolsG1494, andG2532 to commit fornicationG4203.
SoG3779 hastG2192 thouG4771 alsoG2532 them that holdG2902 the doctrineG1322 of the NicolaitansG3531, which thingG3739 I hateG3404.
RepentG3340; or elseG1490 I will comeG2064 unto theeG4671 quicklyG5035, andG2532 will fightG4170 againstG3326 themG846 withG1722 the swordG4501 of myG3450 mouthG4750.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577; To himG846 that overcomethG3528 will I giveG1325 to eatG5315 ofG575 the hiddenG2928 mannaG3131, andG2532 will giveG1325 himG846 a whiteG3022 stoneG5586, andG2532 inG1909 the stoneG5586 a newG2537 nameG3686 writtenG1125, whichG3739 no manG3762 knowethG1097 savingG1508 he that receivethG2983 it.
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 inG1722 ThyatiraG2363 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 hathG2192 hisG846 eyesG3788 likeG5613 unto a flameG5395 of fireG4442, andG2532 hisG846 feetG4228 are likeG3664 fine brassG5474;
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, andG2532 charityG26, andG2532 serviceG1248, andG2532 faithG4102, andG2532 thyG4675 patienceG5281, andG2532 thyG4675 worksG2041; andG2532 the lastG2078 to be more thanG4119 the firstG4413.
NotwithstandingG235 I haveG2192 a few thingsG3641 againstG2596 theeG4675, becauseG3754 thou sufferestG1439 that womanG1135 JezebelG2403, whichG3588 callethG3004 herselfG1438 a prophetessG4398, to teachG1321 andG2532 to seduceG4105 myG1699 servantsG1401 to commit fornicationG4203, andG2532 to eatG5315 things sacrificed unto idolsG1494.
AndG2532 I gaveG1325 herG846 spaceG5550 toG2443 repentG3340 ofG1537 herG846 fornicationG4202; andG2532 she repentedG3340 notG3756.
BeholdG2400, IG1473 will castG906 herG846 intoG1519 a bedG2825, andG2532 them that commit adulteryG3431 withG3326 herG846 intoG1519 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, exceptG3362 they repentG3340 ofG1537 theirG846 deedsG2041.
AndG2532 I will killG615 herG846 childrenG5043 withG1722 deathG2288; andG2532 allG3956 the churchesG1577 shall knowG1097 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 he whichG3588 searchethG2045 the reinsG3510 andG2532 heartsG2588: andG2532 I will giveG1325 unto every oneG1538 of youG5213 according toG2596 yourG5216 worksG2041.
ButG1161 unto youG5213 I sayG3004, andG2532 unto the restG3062 inG1722 ThyatiraG2363, as many asG3745 haveG2192 notG3756 thisG5026 doctrineG1322, andG2532 whichG3748 haveG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 the depthsG899 of SatanG4567, asG5613 they speakG3004; I will putG906 uponG1909 youG5209 noneG3756 otherG243 burdenG922.
ButG4133 that whichG3739 ye haveG2192 already hold fastG2902 tillG891+G3739 I comeG302+G2240.
AndG2532 he that overcomethG3528, andG2532 keepethG5083 myG3450 worksG2041 untoG891 the endG5056, to himG846 will I giveG1325 powerG1849 overG1909 the nationsG1484:
AndG2532 he shall ruleG4165 themG846 withG1722 a rodG4464 of ironG4603; asG5613 the vesselsG4632 of a potterG2764 shall they be broken to shiversG4937: evenG2504 asG5613 IG2504 receivedG2983 ofG3844 myG3450 FatherG3962.
AndG2532 I will giveG1325 himG846 the morningG4407 starG792.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577.
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 inG1722 SardisG4554 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he that hathG2192 the sevenG2033 SpiritsG4151 of GodG2316, andG2532 the sevenG2033 starsG792; I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, thatG3754 thou hastG2192 a nameG3686 thatG3754 thou livestG2198, andG2532 artG1488 deadG3498.
BeG1096 watchfulG1127, andG2532 strengthenG4741 the things which remainG3062, thatG3739 areG3195 ready to dieG599: forG1063 I haveG2147 notG3756 foundG2147 thyG4675 worksG2041 perfectG4137 beforeG1799 GodG2316.
RememberG3421 thereforeG3767 howG4459 thou hast receivedG2983 andG2532 heardG191, andG2532 hold fastG5083, andG2532 repentG3340. IfG3362 thereforeG3767 thou shaltG1127 notG3362 watchG1127, I will comeG2240 onG1909 theeG4571 asG5613 a thiefG2812, andG2532 thou shaltG1097 notG3364 knowG1097 whatG4169 hourG5610 I will comeG2240 uponG1909 theeG4571.
Thou hastG2192 a fewG3641 namesG3686 evenG2532 inG1722 SardisG4554 whichG3739 haveG3435 notG3756 defiledG3435 theirG846 garmentsG2440; andG2532 they shall walkG4043 withG3326 meG1700 inG1722 whiteG3022: forG3754 they areG1526 worthyG514.
He that overcomethG3528, the sameG3778 shall be clothedG4016 inG1722 whiteG3022 raimentG2440; andG2532 I willG1813 notG3364 blot outG1813 hisG846 nameG3686 out ofG1537 the bookG976 of lifeG2222, butG2532 I will confessG1843 hisG846 nameG3686 beforeG1799 myG3450 FatherG3962, andG2532 beforeG1799 hisG846 angelsG32.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577.
AndG2532 to the angelG32 of the churchG1577 inG1722 PhiladelphiaG5359 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he that is holyG40, he that is trueG228, he that hathG2192 the keyG2807 of DavidG1138, he that openethG455, andG2532 no manG3762 shuttethG2808; andG2532 shuttethG2808, andG2532 no manG3762 openethG455;
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041: beholdG2400, I have setG1325 beforeG1799 theeG4675 an openG455 doorG2374, andG2532 no manG3762 canG1410 shutG2808 itG846: forG3754 thou hastG2192 a littleG3398 strengthG1411, andG2532 hast keptG5083 myG3450 wordG3056, andG2532 hastG720 notG3756 deniedG720 myG3450 nameG3686.
BeholdG2400, I will makeG1325 them ofG1537 the synagogueG4864 of SatanG4567, whichG3588 sayG3004 theyG1438 areG1511 JewsG2453, andG2532 areG1526 notG3756, butG235 do lieG5574; beholdG2400, I will makeG4160 themG846 toG2443 comeG2240 andG2532 worshipG4352 beforeG1799 thyG4675 feetG4228, andG2532 to knowG1097 thatG3754 IG1473 have lovedG25 theeG4571.
BecauseG3754 thou hast keptG5083 the wordG3056 of myG3450 patienceG5281, I alsoG2504 will keepG5083 theeG4571 fromG1537 the hourG5610 of temptationG3986, whichG3588 shall comeG3195+G2064 uponG1909 allG3650 the worldG3625, to tryG3985 them that dwellG2730 uponG1909 the earthG1093.
BeholdG2400, I comeG2064 quicklyG5035: hold that fastG2902 whichG3739 thou hastG2192, thatG2443 no manG3367 takeG2983 thyG4675 crownG4735.
HimG846 that overcomethG3528 will I makeG4160 a pillarG4769 inG1722 the templeG3485 of myG3450 GodG2316, andG2532 he shall goG1831 noG3364 moreG2089 outG1854: andG2532 I will writeG1125 uponG1909 himG846 the nameG3686 of myG3450 GodG2316, andG2532 the nameG3686 of the cityG4172 of myG3450 GodG2316, which isG3588 newG2537 JerusalemG2419, whichG3588 cometh downG2597 out ofG1537 heavenG3772 fromG575 myG3450 GodG2316: andG2532 I will write upon him myG3450 newG2537 nameG3686.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577.
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 of the LaodiceansG2994 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the AmenG281, the faithfulG4103 andG2532 trueG228 witnessG3144, the beginningG746 of the creationG2937 of GodG2316; {of the Laodiceans: or, in Laodicea}
I knowG1492 thyG4675 worksG2041, thatG3754 thou artG1488 neitherG3777 coldG5593 norG3777 hotG2200: I wouldG3785 thou wertG1498 coldG5593 orG2228 hotG2200.
SoG3779 then becauseG3754 thou artG1488 lukewarmG5513, andG2532 neitherG3777 coldG5593 norG3777 hotG2200, I willG3195 spueG1692 theeG4571 out ofG1537 myG3450 mouthG4750.
BecauseG3754 thou sayestG3004+G3754, I amG1510 richG4145, andG2532 increased with goodsG4147, andG2532 haveG2192 needG5532 of nothingG3762; andG2532 knowestG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 thouG4771 artG1488 wretchedG5005, andG2532 miserableG1652, andG2532 poorG4434, andG2532 blindG5185, andG2532 nakedG1131:
I counselG4823 theeG4671 to buyG59 ofG3844 meG1700 goldG5553 triedG4448 inG1537 the fireG4442, thatG2443 thou mayest be richG4147; andG2532 whiteG3022 raimentG2440, thatG2443 thou mayest be clothedG4016, andG2532 that the shameG152 of thyG4675 nakednessG1132 doG5319 notG3361 appearG5319; andG2532 anointG1472 thineG4675 eyesG3788 with eyesalveG2854, thatG2443 thou mayest seeG991.
As many asG3745+G1437 I loveG5368, IG1473 rebukeG1651 andG2532 chastenG3811: be zealousG2206 thereforeG3767, andG2532 repentG3340.
BeholdG2400, I standG2476 atG1909 the doorG2374, andG2532 knockG2925: ifG1437 any manG5100 hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456, andG2532 openG455 the doorG2374, I will come inG1525 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 will supG1172 withG3326 himG846, andG2532 heG846 withG3326 meG1700.
To himG846 that overcomethG3528 will I grantG1325 to sitG2523 withG3326 meG1700 inG1722 myG3450 throneG2362, evenG2504 asG5613 I alsoG2504 overcameG3528, andG2532 am set downG2523 withG3326 myG3450 FatherG3962 inG1722 hisG846 throneG2362.

BeG1096 watchfulG1127, andG2532 strengthenG4741 the things which remainG3062, thatG3739 areG3195 ready to dieG599: forG1063 I haveG2147 notG3756 foundG2147 thyG4675 worksG2041 perfectG4137 beforeG1799 GodG2316.

BecauseG3754 thou sayestG3004+G3754, I amG1510 richG4145, andG2532 increased with goodsG4147, andG2532 haveG2192 needG5532 of nothingG3762; andG2532 knowestG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 thouG4771 artG1488 wretchedG5005, andG2532 miserableG1652, andG2532 poorG4434, andG2532 blindG5185, andG2532 nakedG1131:
I counselG4823 theeG4671 to buyG59 ofG3844 meG1700 goldG5553 triedG4448 inG1537 the fireG4442, thatG2443 thou mayest be richG4147; andG2532 whiteG3022 raimentG2440, thatG2443 thou mayest be clothedG4016, andG2532 that the shameG152 of thyG4675 nakednessG1132 doG5319 notG3361 appearG5319; andG2532 anointG1472 thineG4675 eyesG3788 with eyesalveG2854, thatG2443 thou mayest seeG991.
As many asG3745+G1437 I loveG5368, IG1473 rebukeG1651 andG2532 chastenG3811: be zealousG2206 thereforeG3767, andG2532 repentG3340.
BeholdG2400, I standG2476 atG1909 the doorG2374, andG2532 knockG2925: ifG1437 any manG5100 hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456, andG2532 openG455 the doorG2374, I will come inG1525 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 will supG1172 withG3326 himG846, andG2532 heG846 withG3326 meG1700.
To himG846 that overcomethG3528 will I grantG1325 to sitG2523 withG3326 meG1700 inG1722 myG3450 throneG2362, evenG2504 asG5613 I alsoG2504 overcameG3528, andG2532 am set downG2523 withG3326 myG3450 FatherG3962 inG1722 hisG846 throneG2362.
He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saithG3004 unto the churchesG1577.
NowG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, byG5228 the comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 by ourG2257 gathering togetherG1997 untoG1909 himG846, {unto him: or, around him}
ThatG1519 yeG5209 beG4531 notG3361 soonG5030 shakenG4531 inG575 mindG3563, orG3383 be troubledG2360, neitherG3383 byG1223 spiritG4151, norG3383 byG1223 wordG3056, norG3383 byG1223 letterG1992 asG5613 fromG1223 usG2257, asG5613 thatG3754 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547 is at handG1764.
LetG1818 noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG1818 youG5209 byG2596 anyG3367 meansG5158: forG3754 that day shall not come, exceptG3362 there comeG2064 a falling awayG646 firstG4412, andG2532 that manG444 of sinG266 be revealedG601, the sonG5207 of perditionG684;
WhoG3588 opposethG480 andG2532 exaltethG5229 himself aboveG1909 allG3956 that is calledG3004 GodG2316, orG2228 that is worshippedG4574; soG5620 that heG846 asG5613 GodG2316 sittethG2523 inG1519 the templeG3485 of GodG2316, shewingG584 himselfG1438 thatG3754 he isG2076 GodG2316.
Remember yeG3421 notG3756, thatG3754, when I wasG5607 yetG2089 withG4314 youG5209, I toldG3004 youG5213 these thingsG5023?
AndG2532 nowG3568 ye knowG1492 what withholdethG2722 thatG1519 heG846 might be revealedG601 inG1722 hisG1438 timeG2540. {withholdeth: or, holdeth}
ForG1063 the mysteryG3466 of iniquityG458 dothG1754 alreadyG2235 workG1754: onlyG3440 he who nowG737 lettethG2722 will let, untilG2193 he be takenG1096 out ofG1537 the wayG3319.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shallG601 that WickedG459 be revealedG601, whomG3739 the LordG2962 shall consumeG355 with the spiritG4151 of hisG846 mouthG4750, andG2532 shall destroyG2673 with the brightnessG2015 of hisG846 comingG3952:
Even him, whoseG3739 comingG3952 isG2076 afterG2596 the workingG1753 of SatanG4567 withG1722 allG3956 powerG1411 andG2532 signsG4592 andG2532 lyingG5579 wondersG5059,
AndG2532 withG1722 allG3956 deceivablenessG539 of unrighteousnessG93 inG1722 them that perishG622; becauseG473+G3739 they receivedG1209 notG3756 the loveG26 of the truthG225, thatG1519 theyG846 might be savedG4982.
AndG2532 for thisG5124 causeG1223 GodG2316 shall sendG3992 themG846 strongG1753 delusionG4106, thatG1519 theyG846 should believeG4100 a lieG5579:
ThatG2443 they allG3956 might be damnedG2919 whoG3588 believedG4100 notG3361 the truthG225, butG235 had pleasureG2106 inG1722 unrighteousnessG93.
ButG1161 weG2249 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG2316 forG4012 youG5216, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG5209 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225:
WhereuntoG1519+G3739 he calledG2564 youG5209 byG1223 ourG2257 gospelG2098, toG1519 the obtainingG4047 of the gloryG1391 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
ThereforeG686+G3767, brethrenG80, stand fastG4739, andG2532 holdG2902 the traditionsG3862 whichG3739 ye have been taughtG1321, whetherG1535 byG1223 wordG3056, orG1535+G1223 ourG2257 epistleG1992.
NowG1161 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846, andG2532 GodG2316, evenG2532 ourG2257 FatherG3962, whichG3588 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG1325 us everlastingG166 consolationG3874 andG2532 goodG18 hopeG1680 throughG1722 graceG5485,
ComfortG3870 yourG5216 heartsG2588, andG2532 stablishG4741 youG5209 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 wordG3056 andG2532 workG2041.
But the pathH734 of the justH6662 is as the shiningH5051 lightH216, that shinethH215 moreH1980 and more unto the perfectH3559 dayH3117.
