Take heedG3708 that ye despiseG2706 notG3361 oneG1520 of theseG5130 little onesG3398; forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 inG1722 heavenG3772 theirG846 angelsG32 do alwaysG1223+G3956 beholdG991 the faceG4383 of myG3450 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
And the nextH7138 unto him was CarshenaH3771, ShetharH8369, AdmathaH133, TarshishH8659, MeresH4825, MarsenaH4826, and MemucanH4462, the sevenH7651 princesH8269 of PersiaH6539 and MediaH4074, which sawH7200 the king'sH4428 faceH6440, and which satH3427 the firstH7223 in the kingdomH4438;)
All the king'sH4428 servantsH5650, and the peopleH5971 of the king'sH4428 provincesH4082, do knowH3045, that whosoever, whether manH376 or womanH802, shall comeH935 unto the kingH4428 into the innerH6442 courtH2691, who is not calledH7121, there is oneH259 lawH1881 of his to put him to deathH4191, exceptH905 such to whom the kingH4428 shall hold outH3447 the goldenH2091 sceptreH8275, that he may liveH2421: but I have not been calledH7121 to come inH935 unto the kingH4428 these thirtyH7970 daysH3117.
AndG1161 they saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846, Thou art madG3105. ButG1161 she constantly affirmedG1340 that it wasG2192 even soG3779. ThenG1161 said theyG3004, It isG2076 hisG846 angelG32.
AndG2532 he hadG2192 inG1722 hisG846 rightG1188 handG5495 sevenG2033 starsG792: andG2532 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750 wentG1607 a sharpG3691 twoedgedG1366 swordG4501: andG2532 hisG846 countenanceG3799 was asG5613 the sunG2246 shinethG5316 inG1722 hisG846 strengthG1411.
The mysteryG3466 of the sevenG2033 starsG792 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 inG1909 myG3450 right handG1188, andG2532 the sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticksG3087. The sevenG2033 starsG792 areG1526 the angelsG32 of the sevenG2033 churchesG1577: andG2532 the sevenG2033 candlesticksG3087 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 areG1526 the sevenG2033 churchesG1577.
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
ThereforeG5124+G1223 I writeG1125 these thingsG5023 being absentG548, lestG3363 being presentG3918 I should useG5530 sharpnessG664, accordingG2596 to the powerG1849 whichG3739 the LordG2962 hath givenG1325 meG3427 toG1519 edificationG3619, andG2532 notG3756 toG1519 destructionG2506.
Of whomG3739 isG2076 HymenaeusG5211 andG2532 AlexanderG223; whomG3739 I have deliveredG3860 unto SatanG4567, thatG2443 they may learnG3811 notG3361 to blasphemeG987.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, WhatsoeverG3745+G1437 ye shall bindG1210 onG1909 earthG1093 shall beG2071 boundG1210 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 whatsoeverG3745+G1437 ye shall looseG3089 onG1909 earthG1093 shall beG2071 loosedG3089 inG1722 heavenG3772.
AndG1161 fromG575 MiletusG3399 he sentG3992 toG1519 EphesusG2181, and calledG3333 the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577.
PaulG3972 andG2532 TimotheusG5095, the servantsG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to allG3956 the saintsG40 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 which areG5607 atG1722 PhilippiG5375, withG4862 the bishopsG1985 andG2532 deaconsG1249:
For thisG5127 causeG5484 left IG2641 theeG4571 inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest set in orderG1930 the things that are wantingG3007, andG2532 ordainG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 had appointedG1299 theeG4671: {wanting: or, left undone}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
You only have I knownH3045 of all the familiesH4940 of the earthH127: therefore I will punishH6485 you for all your iniquitiesH5771. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
SlayH2026 utterlyH4889 oldH2205 and youngH970, both maidsH1330, and little childrenH2945, and womenH802: but come not nearH5066 any manH376 upon whom is the markH8420; and beginH2490 at my sanctuaryH4720. Then they beganH2490 at the ancientH2205 menH582 which were beforeH6440 the houseH1004. {utterly: Heb. to destruction}
ForG3754 the timeG2540 is come that judgmentG2917 must beginG756 atG575 the houseG3624 of GodG2316: andG1161 ifG1487 it firstG4412 begin atG575 usG2257, whatG5101 shall the endG5056 be of them that obey notG544 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316?
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thisG5124, thatG3754 afterG3326 myG3450 departingG867 shall grievousG926 wolvesG3074 enter inG1525 amongG1519 youG5209, notG3361 sparingG5339 the flockG4168.
AlsoG2532 ofG1537 yourG5216 own selvesG846 shallG450 menG435 ariseG450, speakingG2980 perverse thingsG1294, to draw awayG645 disciplesG3101 afterG3694 themG846.
ThereforeG1352 watchG1127, and rememberG3421, thatG3754 by the space of three yearsG5148 I ceasedG3973 notG3756 to warnG3560 everyG1538 oneG1520 nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250 withG3326 tearsG1144.
AndG2532 nowG3569, brethrenG80, I commendG3908 youG5209 to GodG2316, andG2532 to the wordG3056 of hisG846 graceG5485, whichG3588 is ableG1410 to build you upG2026, andG2532 to giveG1325 youG5213 an inheritanceG2817 amongG1722 allG3956 them which are sanctifiedG37.
Him that is weakG770 in the faithG4102 receive yeG4355, butG1161 notG3361 toG1519 doubtfulG1261 disputationsG1253. {not…: or, not to judge his doubtful thoughts}
The mysteryG3466 of the sevenG2033 starsG792 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 inG1909 myG3450 right handG1188, andG2532 the sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticksG3087. The sevenG2033 starsG792 areG1526 the angelsG32 of the sevenG2033 churchesG1577: andG2532 the sevenG2033 candlesticksG3087 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 areG1526 the sevenG2033 churchesG1577.
This matterH6600 is by the decreeH1510 of the watchersH5894, and the demandH7595 by the wordH3983 of the holy onesH6922: toH5705 the intentH1701 that the livingH2417 may knowH3046 that the most HighH5943 rulethH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and givethH5415 it to whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634, and setteth upH6966 overH5922 it the basestH8215 of menH606.
ThisH1836 is the interpretationH6591, O kingH4430, and thisH1932 is the decreeH1510 of the most HighH5943, which is comeH4291 uponH5922 my lordH4756 the kingH4430:
RememberG3421 them which have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, whoG3748 have spokenG2980 unto youG5213 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: whoseG3739 faithG4102 followG3401, consideringG333 the endG1545 of their conversationG391. {have the rule: or, are the guides}
ObeyG3982 them that have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, andG2532 submit yourselvesG5226: forG1063 theyG846 watchG69 forG5228 yourG5216 soulsG5590, asG5613 they that must giveG591 accountG3056, thatG2443 they may doG4160 itG5124 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 notG3361 with griefG4727: forG1063 thatG5124 is unprofitableG255 for youG5213. {have…: or, guide}
MakeG2675 youG5209 perfectG2675 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041 toG1519 doG4160 hisG846 willG2307, workingG4160 inG1722 youG5213 that which is wellpleasingG2101 in hisG846 sightG1799, throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; to whomG3739 be gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281. {working: or, doing}
Are theyG1526 notG3780 allG3956 ministeringG3010 spiritsG4151, sent forthG649 toG1519 ministerG1248 forG1223 them who shallG3195 be heirs ofG2816 salvationG4991?
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, which givethH5414 the sunH8121 for a lightH216 by dayH3119, and the ordinancesH2708 of the moonH3394 and of the starsH3556 for a lightH216 by nightH3915, which dividethH7280 the seaH3220 when the wavesH1530 thereof roarH1993; The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034:
Holding forthG1907 the wordG3056 of lifeG2222; thatG1519 IG1698 may rejoiceG2745 inG1519 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547, thatG3754 I haveG5143 notG3756 runG5143 inG1519 vainG2756, neitherG3761 labouredG2872 inG1519 vainG2756.
AndG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, to knowG1492 them whichG3588 labourG2872 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 are overG4291 youG5216 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 admonishG3560 youG5209;
I rejoiceH7797 at thy wordH565, as one that findethH4672 greatH7227 spoilH7998.
