King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
It is goodH2896 for me that I have been afflictedH6031; that I might learnH3925 thy statutesH2706.
Be carefulG3309 for nothingG3367; butG235 inG1722 every thingG3956 by prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 letG1107 yourG5216 requestsG155 be made knownG1107 untoG4314 GodG2316.
AndG2532 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316, whichG3588 passethG5242 allG3956 understandingG3563, shall keepG5432 yourG5216 heartsG2588 andG2532 mindsG5216+G3540 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
NeverthelessG235 GodG2316, that comfortethG3870 those that are cast downG5011, comfortedG3870 usG2248 byG1722 the comingG3952 of TitusG5103;
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767 that AbrahamG11 ourG2257 fatherG3962, as pertainingG2596 to the fleshG4561, hath foundG2147?
ForG1063 ifG1487 AbrahamG11 were justifiedG1344 byG1537 worksG2041, he hathG2192 whereof to gloryG2745; butG235 notG3756 beforeG4314 GodG2316.
ForG1063 whatG5101 saithG3004 the scriptureG1124+G1161? AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG2316, andG2532 it was countedG3049 unto himG846 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
NowG1161 to him that workethG2038 isG3049 the rewardG3408 notG3756 reckonedG3049 ofG2596 graceG5485, butG235 ofG2596 debtG3783.
ButG1161 to him that workethG2038 notG3361, butG1161 believethG4100 onG1909 him that justifiethG1344 the ungodlyG765, hisG846 faithG4102 is countedG3049 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
Even asG2509 DavidG1138 alsoG2532 describethG3004 the blessednessG3108 of the manG444, unto whomG3739 GodG2316 imputethG3049 righteousnessG1343 withoutG5565 worksG2041,
Saying, BlessedG3107 are they whoseG3739 iniquitiesG458 are forgivenG863, andG2532 whoseG3739 sinsG266 are coveredG1943.
BlessedG3107 is the manG435 to whomG3739 the LordG2962 willG3049 notG3364 imputeG3049 sinG266.
Cometh thisG3778 blessednessG3108 thenG3767 uponG1909 the circumcisionG4061 only, orG2228 uponG1909 the uncircumcisionG203 alsoG2532? forG1063 we sayG3004 thatG3754 faithG4102 was reckonedG3049 to AbrahamG11 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
HowG4459 was itG3049 thenG3767 reckonedG3049? when he wasG5607 inG1722 circumcisionG4061, orG2228 inG1722 uncircumcisionG203? NotG3756 inG1722 circumcisionG4061, butG235 inG1722 uncircumcisionG203.
AndG2532 he receivedG2983 the signG4592 of circumcisionG4061, a sealG4973 of the righteousnessG1343 of the faithG4102 whichG3588 he had yet beingG1722 uncircumcisedG203: thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the fatherG3962 of allG3956 them that believeG4100, thoughG1223 they be not circumcisedG203; thatG1519 righteousnessG1343 might be imputedG3049 unto themG846 alsoG2532:
AndG2532 the fatherG3962 of circumcisionG4061 to them who are notG3756 ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061 onlyG3440, butG235 who alsoG2532 walkG4748 in the stepsG2487 of that faithG4102 of ourG2257 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11, which he had beingG1722 yet uncircumcisedG203.
ForG1063 the promiseG1860, that he should beG1511 theG846 heirG2818 of the worldG2889, was notG3756 to AbrahamG11, orG2228 to hisG846 seedG4690, throughG1223 the lawG3551, butG235 throughG1223 the righteousnessG1343 of faithG4102.
ForG1063 ifG1487 they which are ofG1537 the lawG3551 be heirsG2818, faithG4102 is made voidG2758, andG2532 the promiseG1860 made of none effectG2673:
BecauseG1063 the lawG3551 workethG2716 wrathG3709: forG1063 whereG3757 noG3756 lawG3551 isG2076, there is noG3761 transgressionG3847.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 it is ofG1537 faithG4102, thatG2443 it might be byG2596 graceG5485; to the endG1519 the promiseG1860 might beG1511 sureG949 to allG3956 the seedG4690; notG3756 to that onlyG3440 which is ofG1537 the lawG3551, butG235 to that alsoG2532 which is ofG1537 the faithG4102 of AbrahamG11; whoG3739 isG2076 the fatherG3962 of usG2257 allG3956,
(AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, I have madeG5087 theeG4571 a fatherG3962 of manyG4183 nationsG1484,) beforeG2713 him whomG3739 he believedG4100, even GodG2316, who quickenethG2227 the deadG3498, andG2532 callethG2564 those things which beG5607 notG3361 as thoughG5613 they wereG5607. {before him: or, like unto him}
WhoG3739 againstG3844 hopeG1680 believedG4100 inG1909 hopeG1680, thatG1519 heG846 might becomeG1096 the fatherG3962 of manyG4183 nationsG1484; accordingG2596 to that which was spokenG2046, SoG3779 shallG2071 thyG4675 seedG4690 beG2071.
AndG2532 being notG3361 weakG770 in faithG4102, he consideredG2657 notG3756 his ownG1438 bodyG4983 nowG2235 deadG3499, when he wasG5225 aboutG4225 an hundred years oldG1541, neither yetG2532 the deadnessG3500 of Sarah'sG4564 wombG3388:
He staggeredG1252 notG3756 atG1519 the promiseG1860 of GodG2316 through unbeliefG570; butG235 was strongG1743 in faithG4102, givingG1325 gloryG1391 to GodG2316;
AndG2532 being fully persuadedG4135 thatG3754, whatG3739 he had promisedG1861, he wasG2076 ableG1415 alsoG2532 to performG4160.
AndG2532 thereforeG1352 it was imputedG3049 to himG846 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
NowG1161 it wasG1125 notG3756 writtenG1125 for his sakeG1223+G846 aloneG3440, thatG3754 it was imputedG3049 to himG846;
ButG235 forG1223 usG2248 alsoG2532, to whomG3739 it shall beG3195 imputedG3049, if we believeG4100 onG1909 him that raised upG1453 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962 fromG1537 the deadG3498;
WhoG3739 was deliveredG3860 forG1223 ourG2257 offencesG3900, andG2532 was raised againG1453 forG1223 ourG2257 justificationG1347.
ForG1063 the lawG3551 havingG2192 a shadowG4639 of good thingsG18 to comeG3195, and notG3756 the veryG846 imageG1504 of the thingsG4229, canG1410 neverG3763 with thoseG846 sacrificesG2378 whichG3739 they offeredG4374 year by yearG2596+G1763 continuallyG1519+G1336 makeG5048 the comers thereuntoG4334 perfectG5048.
For thenG1893 would theyG302 notG3756 have ceasedG3973 to be offeredG4374? becauseG1223 that the worshippersG3000 onceG530 purgedG2508 should have hadG2192 noG3367 moreG2089 conscienceG4893 of sinsG266. {would…: or, they would have ceased to be offered, because, etc.}
ButG235 inG1722 thoseG846 sacrifices there is a remembrance againG364 made of sinsG266 everyG2596 yearG1763.
ForG1063 it is not possibleG102 that the bloodG129 of bullsG5022 andG2532 of goatsG5131 should take awayG851 sinsG266.
WhereforeG1352 when he comethG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, he saithG3004, SacrificeG2378 andG2532 offeringG4376 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756, butG1161 a bodyG4983 hast thou preparedG2675 meG3427: {hast…: or, thou hast fitted me}
In burnt offeringsG3646 andG2532 sacrifices forG4012 sinG266 thou hast hadG2106 noG3756 pleasureG2106.
ThenG5119 said IG2036, LoG2400, I comeG2240 (inG1722 the volumeG2777 of the bookG975 it is writtenG1125 ofG4012 meG1700,) to doG4160 thyG4675 willG2307, O GodG2316.
AboveG511 when he saidG3004+G3754, SacrificeG2378 andG2532 offeringG4376 andG2532 burnt offeringsG3646 andG2532 offering forG4012 sinG266 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756, neitherG3761 hadst pleasureG2106 therein; whichG3748 are offeredG4374 byG2596 the lawG3551;
ThenG5119 said heG2046, LoG2400, I comeG2240 to doG4160 thyG4675 willG2307, O GodG2316. He taketh awayG337 the firstG4413, thatG2443 he may establishG2476 the secondG1208.
ByG1722 the whichG3739 willG2307 we areG2070 sanctifiedG37 throughG1223 the offeringG4376 of the bodyG4983 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 onceG2178 for all.
AndG2532+G3303 everyG3956 priestG2409 standethG2476 dailyG2596+G2250 ministeringG3008 andG2532 offeringG4374 oftentimesG4178 the sameG846 sacrificesG2378, whichG3748 canG1410 neverG3763 take awayG4014 sinsG266:
ButG1161 this manG846, after he had offeredG4374 oneG3391 sacrificeG2378 forG5228 sinsG266 forG1519 everG1336, sat downG2523 onG1722 the right handG1188 of GodG2316;
From henceforthG3063 expectingG1551 tillG2193 hisG846 enemiesG2190 be madeG5087 hisG846 footstoolG5286+G4228.
ForG1063 by oneG3391 offeringG4376 he hath perfectedG5048 forG1519 everG1336 them that are sanctifiedG37.
WhereofG1161 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 alsoG2532 is a witnessG3140 to usG2254: forG1063 afterG3326 that he had said beforeG4280,
ThisG3778 is the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I will makeG1303 withG4314 themG846 afterG3326 thoseG1565 daysG2250, saithG3004 the LordG2962, I will putG1325 myG3450 lawsG3551 intoG1909 theirG846 heartsG2588, andG2532 inG1909 theirG846 mindsG1271 will I writeG1924 themG846;
AndG2532 theirG846 sinsG266 andG2532 iniquitiesG458+G846 will I rememberG3415 noG3364 moreG2089. {And their: some copies have, Then he said, And their}
NowG1161 whereG3699 remissionG859 of theseG5130 is, there is no moreG3765 offeringG4376 forG4012 sinG266.
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767, brethrenG80, boldnessG3954 toG1519 enterG1529 into the holiestG39 byG1722 the bloodG129 of JesusG2424, {boldness: or, liberty}
By a newG4372 andG2532 livingG2198 wayG3598, whichG3739 he hath consecratedG1457 for usG2254, throughG1223 the veilG2665, that is to sayG5123, hisG846 fleshG4561; {consecrated: or, new made}
AndG2532 having an highG3173 priestG2409 overG1909 the houseG3624 of GodG2316;
Let us draw nearG4334 withG3326 a trueG228 heartG2588 inG1722 full assuranceG4136 of faithG4102, havingG4472 our heartsG2588 sprinkledG4472 fromG575 an evilG4190 conscienceG4893, andG2532 our bodiesG4983 washedG3068 with pureG2513 waterG5204.
Let us hold fastG2722 the professionG3671 of our faithG1680 without waveringG186; (forG1063 he is faithfulG4103 that promisedG1861;)
AndG2532 let us considerG2657 one anotherG240 toG1519 provokeG3948 unto loveG26 andG2532 to goodG2570 worksG2041:
NotG3361 forsakingG1459 the assemblingG1997 of ourselvesG1438 togetherG1997, asG2531 the mannerG1485 of someG5100 is; butG235 exhortingG3870 one another: andG2532 so muchG5118 the moreG3123, asG3745 ye seeG991 the dayG2250 approachingG1448.
ForG1063 if weG2257 sinG264 wilfullyG1596 afterG3326 that we have receivedG2983 the knowledgeG1922 of the truthG225, there remainethG620 no moreG3765 sacrificeG2378 forG4012 sinsG266,
ButG1161 a certainG5100 fearfulG5398 looking forG1561 of judgmentG2920 andG2532 fieryG4442 indignationG2205, which shallG3195 devourG2068 the adversariesG5227.
HeG5100 that despisedG114 Moses'G3475 lawG3551 diedG599 withoutG5565 mercyG3628 underG1909 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 witnessesG3144:
Of how muchG4214 sorerG5501 punishmentG5098, suppose yeG1380, shall he be thought worthyG515, whoG3588 hath trodden under footG2662 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, andG2532 hath countedG2233 the bloodG129 of the covenantG1242, wherewithG3739+G1722 he was sanctifiedG37, an unholy thingG2839, andG2532 hath done despiteG1796 unto the SpiritG4151 of graceG5485?
ForG1063 we knowG1492 him that hath saidG2036, VengeanceG1557 belongeth unto meG1698, IG1473 will recompenseG467, saithG3004 the LordG2962. AndG2532 againG3825, The LordG2962 shall judgeG2919 hisG846 peopleG2992.
It is a fearful thingG5398 to fallG1706 intoG1519 the handsG5495 of the livingG2198 GodG2316.
ButG1161 call to remembranceG363 the formerG4386 daysG2250, inG1722 whichG3739, after ye were illuminatedG5461, ye enduredG5278 a greatG4183 fightG119 of afflictionsG3804;
PartlyG5124+G3303, whilst ye were made a gazingstockG2301 bothG5037 by reproachesG3680 andG2532 afflictionsG2347; andG1161 partlyG5124, whilst ye becameG1096 companionsG2844 of them that wereG390 soG3779 usedG390.
ForG2532+G1063 ye had compassionG4834 of me in myG3450 bondsG1199, andG2532 tookG4327 joyfullyG3326+G5479 the spoilingG724 of yourG5216 goodsG5224, knowingG1097 inG1722 yourselvesG1438 that ye haveG2192 inG1722 heavenG3772 a betterG2909 andG2532 an enduringG3306 substanceG5223.
CastG577 notG3361 awayG577 thereforeG3767 yourG5216 confidenceG3954, whichG3748 hathG2192 greatG3173 recompence of rewardG3405.
ForG1063 ye haveG2192 needG5532 of patienceG5281, thatG2443, after ye have doneG4160 the willG2307 of GodG2316, ye might receiveG2865 the promiseG1860.
ForG1063 yetG2089 a littleG3397 whileG3745+G3745, and he that shall comeG2064 will comeG2240, andG2532 willG5549 notG3756 tarryG5549.
NowG1161 the justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102: butG2532 ifG1437 any man draw backG5288, myG3450 soulG5590 shall haveG2106 noG3756 pleasureG2106 inG1722 himG846.
ButG1161 weG2249 areG2070 notG3756 of them who draw backG5289 untoG1519 perditionG684; butG235 of them that believeG4102 toG1519 the savingG4047 of the soulG5590.
MoreoverG1161 whomG3739 he did predestinateG4309, themG5128 heG2564 alsoG2532 calledG2564: andG2532 whomG3739 he calledG2564, themG5128 heG1344 alsoG2532 justifiedG1344: andG1161 whomG3739 he justifiedG1344, themG5128 heG1392 alsoG2532 glorifiedG1392.
WhereforeH199, JobH347, I pray thee, hearH8085 my speechesH4405, and hearkenH238 to all my wordsH1697.
Behold, now I have openedH6605 my mouthH6310, my tongueH3956 hath spokenH1696 in my mouthH2441. {in my mouth: Heb. in my palate}
My wordsH561 shall be of the uprightnessH3476 of my heartH3820: and my lipsH8193 shall utterH4448 knowledgeH1847 clearlyH1305.
The SpiritH7307 of GodH410 hath madeH6213 me, and the breathH5397 of the AlmightyH7706 hath given me lifeH2421.
If thou canstH3201 answerH7725 me, set thy words in orderH6186 beforeH6440 me, stand upH3320.
Behold, I am according to thy wishH6310 in God'sH410 stead: I also am formedH7169 out of the clayH2563. {wish: Heb. mouth} {formed: Heb. cut}
Behold, my terrorH367 shall not make thee afraidH1204, neither shall my handH405 be heavyH3513 upon thee.
Surely thou hast spokenH559 in mine hearingH241, and I have heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of thy wordsH4405, saying, {hearing: Heb. ears}
I am cleanH2134 without transgressionH6588, I am innocentH2643; neither is there iniquityH5771 in me.
Behold, he findethH4672 occasionsH8569 against me, he countethH2803 me for his enemyH341,
He puttethH7760 my feetH7272 in the stocksH5465, he markethH8104 all my pathsH734.
Behold, in this thou art not justH6663: I will answerH6030 thee, that GodH433 is greaterH7235 than manH582.
Why dost thou striveH7378 against him? for he giveth not accountH6030 of any of his mattersH1697. {he giveth…: Heb. he answereth not}
For GodH410 speakethH1696 onceH259, yea twiceH8147, yet man perceivethH7789 it not.
In a dreamH2472, in a visionH2384 of the nightH3915, when deepH8639 sleep fallethH5307 upon menH582, in slumberingsH8572 upon the bedH4904;
Then he openethH1540 the earsH241 of menH582, and sealethH2856 their instructionH4561, {he…: Heb. he revealeth, or, uncovereth}
That he may withdrawH5493 manH120 from his purposeH4639, and hideH3680 prideH1466 from manH1397. {purpose: Heb. work}
He keepeth backH2820 his soulH5315 from the pitH7845, and his lifeH2416 from perishingH5674 by the swordH7973. {from perishing: Heb. from passing}
He is chastenedH3198 also with painH4341 upon his bedH4904, and the multitudeH7230+H7379 of his bonesH6106 with strongH386 pain:
So that his lifeH2416 abhorrethH2092 breadH3899, and his soulH5315 daintyH8378 meatH3978. {dainty…: Heb. meat of desire}
His fleshH1320 is consumed awayH3615, that it cannot be seenH7210; and his bonesH6106 that were not seenH7200 stick outH8192+H8205.
Yea, his soulH5315 draweth nearH7126 unto the graveH7845, and his lifeH2416 to the destroyersH4191.
If thereH3426 be a messengerH4397 with him, an interpreterH3887, oneH259 among a thousandH505, to shewH5046 unto manH120 his uprightnessH3476:
Then he is graciousH2603 unto him, and saithH559, DeliverH6308 him from going downH3381 to the pitH7845: I have foundH4672 a ransomH3724. {a ransom: or, an atonement}
His fleshH1320 shall be fresherH7375 than a child'sH5290: he shall returnH7725 to the daysH3117 of his youthH5934: {a child's: Heb. childhood}
He shall prayH6279 unto GodH433, and he will be favourableH7521 unto him: and he shall seeH7200 his faceH6440 with joyH8643: for he will renderH7725 unto manH582 his righteousnessH6666.
He lookethH7789 upon menH582, and if any sayH559, I have sinnedH2398, and pervertedH5753 that which was rightH3477, and it profitedH7737 me not; {He…: or, He shall look upon men, and say}
He will deliverH6299 his soulH5315 from goingH5674 into the pitH7845, and his lifeH2416 shall seeH7200 the lightH216. {He…: or, He hath delivered my soul, etc, and my life}
Lo, all these things workethH6466 GodH410 oftentimesH6471+H7969 with manH1397, {oftentimes: Heb. twice and thrice}
To bring backH7725 his soulH5315 from the pitH7845, to be enlightenedH215 with the lightH216 of the livingH2416.
Mark wellH7181, O JobH347, hearkenH8085 unto me: hold thy peaceH2790, and I will speakH1696.
If thou hastH3426 any thing to sayH4405, answerH7725 me: speakH1696, for I desireH2654 to justifyH6663 thee.
If not, hearkenH8085 unto me: hold thy peaceH2790, and I shall teachH502 thee wisdomH2451.
It isG4851 notG3756 expedientG4851 for meG3427 doubtlessG1211 to gloryG2744+G1063. I will comeG2064 toG1519 visionsG3701 andG2532 revelationsG602 of the LordG2962. {I will come: Gr. For I will come}
I knewG1492 a manG444 inG1722 ChristG5547 aboveG4253 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 agoG4253, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492; or whetherG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;) such an oneG5108 caught upG726 toG2193 the thirdG5154 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 I knewG1492 suchG5108 a manG444, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, orG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;)
How thatG3754 he was caught upG726 intoG1519 paradiseG3857, andG2532 heardG191 unspeakableG731 wordsG4487, whichG3739 it isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for a manG444 to utterG2980. {lawful: or, possible}
OfG5228 such an oneG5108 will I gloryG2744: yetG1161 ofG5228 myselfG1683 I willG2744 notG3756 gloryG2744, butG1508 inG1722 mineG3450 infirmitiesG769.
ForG1063 thoughG1437 I would desireG2309 to gloryG2744, I shallG2071 notG3756 beG2071 a foolG878; forG1063 I will sayG2046 the truthG225: butG1161 now I forbearG5339, lestG3361 any manG5100 should thinkG3049 ofG1519 meG1691 aboveG5228 that whichG3739 he seethG991 meG3165 to be, orG2228 that he hearethG191 ofG5100+G1537 meG1700.
AndG2532 lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229 through the abundanceG5236 of the revelationsG602, there was givenG1325 to meG3427 a thornG4647 in the fleshG4561, the messengerG32 of SatanG4566 toG2443 buffetG2852 meG3165, lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229.
ForG5228 this thingG5127 I besoughtG3870 the LordG2962 thriceG5151, thatG2443 it might departG868 fromG575 meG1700.
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769. Most gladlyG2236 thereforeG3767 will IG2744 ratherG3123 gloryG2744 inG1722 myG3450 infirmitiesG769, thatG2443 the powerG1411 of ChristG5547 may restG1981 uponG1909 meG1691.
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
I am becomeG1096 a foolG878 in gloryingG2744; yeG5210 have compelledG315 meG3165: forG1063 IG1473 oughtG3784 to have been commendedG4921 ofG5259 youG5216: forG1063 in nothingG3762 am I behindG5302 the very chiefestG3029 apostlesG652+G5228, thoughG1499 I beG1510 nothingG3762.
TrulyG3303 the signsG4592 of an apostleG652 were wroughtG2716 amongG1722 youG5213 inG1722 allG3956 patienceG5281, inG1722 signsG4592, andG2532 wondersG5059, andG2532 mighty deedsG1411.
ForG1063 whatG5101 is itG2076 whereinG3739 ye were inferiorG2274 toG5228 otherG3062 churchesG1577, exceptG1508 it be thatG3754 IG1473 myselfG846 wasG2655 notG3756 burdensomeG2655 to youG5216? forgiveG5483 meG3427 thisG5026 wrongG93.
BeholdG2400, the third timeG5154 I amG2192 readyG2093 to comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209; andG2532 I willG2655 notG3756 be burdensomeG2655 to youG5216: forG1063 I seekG2212 notG3756 yoursG5216, butG235 youG5209: forG1063 the childrenG5043 oughtG3784 notG3756 to lay upG2343 for the parentsG1118, butG235 the parentsG1118 for the childrenG5043.
AndG1161 IG1473 will very gladlyG2236 spendG1159 andG2532 be spentG1550 forG5228 youG5590+G5216; thoughG1499 the more abundantlyG4056 I loveG25 youG5209, the lessG2276 I be lovedG25. {for you: Gr. for your souls}
ButG1161 be it soG2077, IG1473 didG2599 notG3756 burdenG2599 youG5209: neverthelessG235, beingG5225 craftyG3835, I caughtG2983 youG5209 with guileG1388.
Did I make a gainG4122+G3361 of youG5209 byG1223 anyG5100 of themG846 whomG3739 I sentG649 untoG4314 youG5209?
I desiredG3870 TitusG5103, andG2532 with him I sentG4882 a brotherG80. DidG4122+G3387 TitusG5103 make a gainG4122 of youG5209? walked weG4043 notG3756 in the sameG846 spiritG4151? walked we notG3756 in the sameG846 stepsG2487?
AgainG3825, think yeG1380 thatG3754 we excuse ourselvesG626 unto youG5213? we speakG2980 beforeG2714 GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547: butG1161 we do all thingsG3956, dearly belovedG27, forG5228 yourG5216 edifyingG3619.
ForG1063 I fearG5399, lestG3381+G4458, when I comeG2064, I shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 youG5209 such asG3634 I wouldG2309, and that IG2504 shall be foundG2147 unto youG5213 such asG3634 ye wouldG2309 notG3756: lestG3381+G4458 there be debatesG2054, envyingsG2205, wrathsG2372, strifesG2052, backbitingsG2636, whisperingsG5587, swellingsG5450, tumultsG181:
And lestG3361, when I comeG2064 againG3825, myG3450 GodG2316 will humbleG5013 meG3165 amongG4314 youG5209, andG2532 that I shall bewailG3996 manyG4183 whichG3588 have sinned alreadyG4258, andG2532 haveG3340 notG3361 repentedG3340 ofG1909 the uncleannessG167 andG2532 fornicationG4202 andG2532 lasciviousnessG766 whichG3739 they have committedG4238.
AndG1161 we knowG1492 that all thingsG3956 work togetherG4903 forG1519 goodG18 to them thatG3754 loveG25 GodG2316, to them who areG5607 the calledG2822 accordingG2596 to his purposeG4286.
ButG1161 I determinedG2919 thisG5124 with myselfG1683, that I wouldG2064 notG3361 comeG2064 againG3825 toG4314 youG5209 inG1722 heavinessG3077.
ForG1063 ifG1487 IG1473 makeG3076 youG5209 sorryG3076, whoG5101 is heG2076 thenG2532 that makethG2165 meG3165 gladG2165, butG1508 the same which is made sorryG3076 byG1537 meG1700?
AndG2532 I wroteG1125 thisG5124 sameG846 unto youG5213, lestG3363, when I cameG2064, I should haveG2192 sorrowG3077 fromG575 them of whomG3739 IG3165 oughtG1163 to rejoiceG5463; having confidenceG3982 inG1909 youG5209 allG3956, thatG3754 myG1699 joyG5479 isG2076 the joy of youG5216 allG3956.
ForG1063 out ofG1537 muchG4183 afflictionG2347 andG2532 anguishG4928 of heartG2588 I wroteG1125 unto youG5213 withG1223 manyG4183 tearsG1144; notG3756 thatG2443 ye should be grievedG3076, butG235 thatG2443 ye might knowG1097 the loveG26 whichG3739 I haveG2192 more abundantlyG4056 untoG1519 youG5209.
ButG1161 if anyG1536 have caused griefG3076, he hathG3076 notG3756 grievedG3076 meG1691, butG235 inG575 partG3313: thatG3363 I mayG1912 notG3363 overchargeG1912 youG5209 allG3956.
SufficientG2425 to such a manG5108 is thisG3778 punishmentG2009, whichG3588 was inflicted ofG5259 manyG4119. {punishment: or, censure}
SoG5620 that contrariwiseG5121 yeG5209 ought ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483 him, andG2532 comfortG3870 him, lestG3381 perhapsG4458 such a oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666 with overmuchG4055 sorrowG3077.
WhereforeG1352 I beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye would confirmG2964 your loveG26 towardG1519 himG846.
ForG1063 toG1519 this endG5124 alsoG2532 did I writeG1125, thatG2443 I might knowG1097 the proofG1382 of youG5216, whetherG1487 ye beG2075 obedientG5255 inG1519 all thingsG3956.
To whomG3739 ye forgiveG5483 any thingG5100, IG1473 forgive alsoG2532: forG2532+G1063 if IG1473 forgaveG5483 any thingG1536, to whomG3739 I forgaveG5483 it, for your sakesG1223+G5209 forgave I it inG1722 the personG4383 of ChristG5547; {person: or, sight} {in the person: or, in the sight}
LestG3363 SatanG5259+G4567 should get an advantage of usG4122: forG1063 we are notG3756 ignorantG50 of hisG846 devicesG3540.
FurthermoreG1161, when I cameG2064 toG1519 TroasG5174 toG1519 preach Christ'sG5547 gospelG2098, andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455 unto meG3427 ofG1722 the LordG2962,
I hadG2192 noG3756 restG425 in myG3450 spiritG4151, because IG3165 foundG2147 notG3361 TitusG5103 myG3450 brotherG80: butG235 taking my leaveG657 of themG846, I went from thenceG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109.
NowG1161 thanksG5485 be unto GodG2316, which alwaysG3842 causethG2358 usG2248 to triumphG2358 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG2532 maketh manifestG5319 the savourG3744 of hisG846 knowledgeG1108 byG1223 usG2257 inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117.
ForG3754 we areG2070 unto GodG2316 a sweet savourG2175 of ChristG5547, inG1722 them that are savedG4982, andG2532 inG1722 them that perishG622:
ToG3739 the oneG3303 we are the savourG3744 of deathG2288 untoG1519 deathG2288; andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 untoG1519 lifeG2222. AndG2532 whoG5101 is sufficientG2425 forG4314 these thingsG5023?
ForG1063 we areG2070 notG3756 asG5613 manyG4183, which corruptG2585 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 sincerityG1505, butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 GodG2316, in the sightG2714 of GodG2316 speak weG2980 inG1722 ChristG5547. {corrupt: or, deal deceitfully with} {in Christ: or, of Christ}
SoG5620 that contrariwiseG5121 yeG5209 ought ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483 him, andG2532 comfortG3870 him, lestG3381 perhapsG4458 such a oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666 with overmuchG4055 sorrowG3077.
WhereforeG1352 I beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye would confirmG2964 your loveG26 towardG1519 himG846.
AtG1722 the sameG1565 timeG5610 cameG4334 the disciplesG3101 unto JesusG2424, sayingG3004, WhoG5101+G686 isG2076 the greatestG3187 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772?
AndG2532 JesusG2424 calledG4341 a little childG3813 unto himG4341, and setG2476 himG846 inG1722 the midstG3319 of themG846,
AndG2532 saidG2036, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ExceptG3362 ye be convertedG4762, andG2532 becomeG1096 asG5613 little childrenG3813, ye shallG1525 notG3364 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772.
WhosoeverG3748 thereforeG3767 shall humbleG5013 himselfG1438 asG5613 thisG5124 little childG3813, the sameG3778 isG2076 greatestG3187 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772.
AndG2532 whosoG3739+G1437 shall receiveG1209 oneG1520 suchG5108 little childG3813 inG1909 myG3450 nameG3686 receivethG1209 meG1691.
ButG1161 whosoG3739+G302 shall offendG4624 oneG1520 of theseG5130 little onesG3398 whichG3588 believeG4100 inG1519 meG1691, it were betterG4851 for himG846 thatG2443 a millstoneG3458+G3684 were hangedG2910 aboutG1909 hisG846 neckG5137, andG2532 that he were drownedG2670 inG1722 the depthG3989 of the seaG2281.
WoeG3759 unto the worldG2889 because ofG575 offencesG4625! forG1063 it must needsG318 beG2076 that offencesG4625 comeG2064; butG4133 woeG3759 to that manG444 byG1565 whomG1223+G3739 the offenceG4625 comethG2064!
WhereforeG1161 ifG1487 thyG4675 handG5495 orG2228 thyG4675 footG4228 offend theeG4624, cutG1581 themG846 offG1581, andG2532 castG906 them fromG575 theeG4571+G4675: it isG2076 betterG2570 for theeG4671 to enter intoG1525+G1519 lifeG2222 haltG5560 orG2228 maimedG2948, rather thanG2228 havingG2192 twoG1417 handsG5495 orG2228 twoG1417 feetG4228 to be castG906 intoG1519 everlastingG166 fireG4442.
AndG2532 ifG1487 thineG4675 eyeG3788 offendG4624 theeG4571, pluckG1807 itG846 outG1807, andG2532 castG906 it fromG575 theeG4675: it isG2076 betterG2570 for theeG4671 to enterG1525 intoG1519 lifeG2222 with one eyeG3442, rather thanG2228 havingG2192 twoG1417 eyesG3788 to be castG906 intoG1519 hellG1067 fireG4442.
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.
ForG1063 the SonG5207 of manG444 is comeG2064 to saveG4982 that whichG3588 was lostG622.
HowG5101 thinkG1380 yeG5213? ifG1437+G5100 a manG444 haveG1096 an hundredG1540 sheepG4263, andG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 be gone astrayG4105, doth heG863 notG3780 leaveG863 the ninety and nineG1768, and goethG4198 intoG1909 the mountainsG3735, and seekethG2212 that whichG3588 is gone astrayG4105?
AndG2532 if soG1437 beG1096 that he findG2147 itG846, verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, he rejoicethG5463 moreG3123 ofG1909 thatG846 sheep, thanG2228 ofG1909 the ninety and nineG1768 whichG3588 wentG4105 notG3361 astrayG4105.
Even soG3779 it isG2076 notG3756 the willG2307 ofG1715 yourG5216 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772, thatG2443 oneG1520 of theseG5130 little onesG3398 should perishG622.
MoreoverG1161 ifG1437 thyG4675 brotherG80 shall trespassG264 againstG1519 theeG4571, goG5217 andG2532 tellG1651 himG846 his faultG1651 betweenG3342 theeG4675 andG2532 himG846 aloneG3441: ifG1437 he shall hearG191 theeG4675, thou hast gainedG2770 thyG4675 brotherG80.
ButG1161 ifG3362 he willG191 notG3362 hearG191 thee, then takeG3880 withG3326 theeG4675 oneG1520 orG2228 twoG1417 moreG2089, thatG2443 inG1909 the mouthG4750 of twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 witnessesG3144 everyG3956 wordG4487 may be establishedG2476.
AndG1161 ifG1437 he shall neglect to hearG3878 themG846, tellG2036 it unto the churchG1577: butG1161+G2532 ifG1437 he neglect to hearG3878 the churchG1577, let him beG2077 unto theeG4671 asG5618 an heathen manG1482 andG2532 a publicanG5057.
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.
AgainG3825 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 ifG1437 twoG1417 of youG5216 shall agreeG4856 onG1909 earthG1093 as touchingG4012 anyG3956 thingG4229 thatG3739+G1437 they shall askG154, it shall be doneG1096 for themG846 ofG3844 myG3450 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
ForG1063 whereG3757 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 areG1526 gathered togetherG4863 inG1519 myG1699 nameG3686, thereG1563 am IG1510 inG1722 the midstG3319 of themG846.
ThenG5119 cameG4334 PeterG4074 to himG846, and saidG2036, LordG2962, how oftG4212 shall myG3450 brotherG80 sinG264 againstG1519 meG1691, andG2532 I forgiveG863 himG846? tillG2193 seven timesG2034?
JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, I sayG3004 notG3756 unto theeG4671, UntilG2193 seven timesG2034: butG235, UntilG2193 seventy timesG1441 sevenG2033.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 is the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 likenedG3666 unto a certainG444 kingG935, whichG3739 wouldG2309 takeG4868 accountG3056 ofG3326 hisG846 servantsG1401.
AndG1161 when heG846 had begunG756 to reckonG4868, oneG1520 was broughtG4374 unto himG846, which owedG3781 himG846 ten thousandG3463 talentsG5007. {talents: a talent is 750.ounces of silver, which after five shillings the ounce is 187.li. 10.s.}
But forasmuch asG1161 heG846 hadG2192 notG3361 to payG591, hisG846 lordG2962 commandedG2753 himG846 to be soldG4097, andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 childrenG5043, andG2532 allG3956 thatG3745 he hadG2192, andG2532 payment to be madeG591.
The servantG1401 thereforeG3767 fell downG4098, and worshippedG4352 himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962, have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG1698, andG2532 I will payG591 theeG4671 allG3956. {worshipped him: or, besought him}
ThenG1161 the lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 was moved with compassionG4697, and loosedG630 himG846, andG2532 forgaveG863 himG846 the debtG1156.
ButG1161 the sameG1565 servantG1401 went outG1831, and foundG2147 oneG1520 of hisG846 fellowservantsG4889, whichG3739 owedG3784 himG846 an hundredG1540 penceG1220: andG2532 he laid handsG2902 on himG846, and took him by the throatG4155, sayingG3004, PayG591 meG3427 thatG3748 thou owestG3784. {pence: the Roman penny is the eighth part of an ounce, which after five shillings the ounce is seven pence halfpenny; about fourteen cents}
AndG3767 hisG846 fellowservantG4889 fell downG4098 atG1519 hisG846 feetG4228, and besoughtG3870 himG846, sayingG3004, Have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG1698, andG2532 I will payG591 theeG4671 allG3956.
AndG1161 he wouldG2309 notG3756: butG235 wentG565 and castG906 himG846 intoG1519 prisonG5438, tillG2193+G3739 he should payG591 the debtG3784.
SoG1161 when hisG846 fellowservantsG4889 sawG1492 what was doneG1096, they were veryG4970 sorryG3076, andG2532 cameG2064 and toldG1285 unto theirG846 lordG2962 allG3956 that was doneG1096.
ThenG5119 hisG846 lordG2962, after that he had calledG4341 himG846, saidG3004 unto himG846, O thou wickedG4190 servantG1401, I forgaveG863 theeG4671 allG3956 thatG1565 debtG3782, becauseG1893 thou desiredstG3870 meG3165:
ShouldestG1163 notG3756 thouG4571 alsoG2532 have had compassionG1653 on thyG4675 fellowservantG4889, evenG2532 asG5613 IG1473 had pityG1653 on theeG4571?
AndG2532 hisG846 lordG2962 was wrothG3710, and deliveredG3860 himG846 to the tormentorsG930, tillG2193+G3739 he should payG591 allG3956 that was dueG3784 unto himG846.
SoG3779 likewise shall myG3450 heavenlyG2032 FatherG3962 doG4160 alsoG2532 unto youG5213, ifG3362 ye fromG575 yourG5216 heartsG2588 forgiveG863 notG3362 every oneG1538 hisG846 brotherG80 theirG846 trespassesG3900.
SoG5620 that contrariwiseG5121 yeG5209 ought ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483 him, andG2532 comfortG3870 him, lestG3381 perhapsG4458 such a oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666 with overmuchG4055 sorrowG3077.
WhereforeG1352 I beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye would confirmG2964 your loveG26 towardG1519 himG846.
AndG2532 they cast outG1544 manyG4183 devilsG1140, andG2532 anointedG218 with oilG1637 manyG4183 that were sickG732, andG2532 healedG2323 them.
He answerethG611 himG846, andG1161 saithG3004, OG5599 faithlessG571 generationG1074, how longG2193+G4219 shall I beG2071 withG4314 youG5209? how longG2193+G4219 shall I sufferG430 youG5216? bringG5342 himG846 untoG4314 meG3165.
ElihuH453 also proceededH3254, and saidH559,
SufferH3803 me a littleH2191, and I will shewH2331 thee that I have yet to speakH4405 on God'sH433 behalf. {I have…: Heb. there are yet words for God}
I will fetchH5375 my knowledgeH1843 from afarH7350, and will ascribeH5414 righteousnessH6664 to my MakerH6466.
For trulyH551 my wordsH4405 shall not be falseH8267: he that is perfectH8549 in knowledgeH1844 is with thee.
Behold, GodH410 is mightyH3524, and despisethH3988 not any: he is mightyH3524 in strengthH3581 and wisdomH3820. {wisdom: Heb. heart}
He preserveth not the lifeH2421 of the wickedH7563: but givethH5414 rightH4941 to the poorH6041. {poor: or, afflicted}
He withdrawethH1639 not his eyesH5869 from the righteousH6662: but with kingsH4428 are they on the throneH3678; yea, he doth establishH3427 them for everH5331, and they are exaltedH1361.
And if they be boundH631 in fettersH2131, and be holdenH3920 in cordsH2256 of afflictionH6040;
Then he shewethH5046 them their workH6467, and their transgressionsH6588 that they have exceededH1396.
He openethH1540 also their earH241 to disciplineH4148, and commandethH559 that they returnH7725 from iniquityH205.
If they obeyH8085 and serveH5647 him, they shall spendH3615 their daysH3117 in prosperityH2896, and their yearsH8141 in pleasuresH5273.
But if they obeyH8085 not, they shall perishH5674 by the swordH7973, and they shall dieH1478 without knowledgeH1847. {perish: Heb. pass away}
But the hypocritesH2611 in heartH3820 heap upH7760 wrathH639: they cryH7768 not when he bindethH631 them.
TheyH5315 dieH4191 in youthH5290, and their lifeH2416 is among the uncleanH6945. {They…: Heb. Their soul dieth} {unclean: or, sodomites}
He deliverethH2502 the poorH6041 in his afflictionH6040, and openethH1540 their earsH241 in oppressionH3906. {poor: or, afflicted}
Even so would he have removedH5496 thee out of the straitH6310+H6862 into a broad placeH7338, whereH8478 there is no straitnessH4164; and that which should be setH5183 on thy tableH7979 should be fullH4390 of fatnessH1880. {that…: Heb. the rest of thy table}
But thou hast fulfilledH4390 the judgmentH1779 of the wickedH7563: judgmentH1779 and justiceH4941 take holdH8551 on thee. {take…: or, should uphold thee}
Because there is wrathH2534, beware lest he take thee awayH5496 with his strokeH5607: then a greatH7230 ransomH3724 cannot deliverH5186 thee. {deliver…: Heb. turn thee aside}
Will he esteemH6186 thy richesH7769? no, not goldH1222, nor all the forcesH3981 of strengthH3581.
DesireH7602 not the nightH3915, when peopleH5971 are cut offH5927 in their place.
Take heedH8104, regardH6437 not iniquityH205: for this hast thou chosenH977 rather than afflictionH6040.
Behold, GodH410 exaltethH7682 by his powerH3581: who teachethH3384 like him?
Who hath enjoinedH6485 him his wayH1870? or who can sayH559, Thou hast wroughtH6466 iniquityH5766?
RememberH2142 that thou magnifyH7679 his workH6467, which menH582 beholdH7891.
Every manH120 may seeH2372 it; manH582 may beholdH5027 it afar offH7350.
Behold, GodH410 is greatH7689, and we knowH3045 him not, neither can the numberH4557 of his yearsH8141 be searched outH2714.
For he maketh smallH1639 the dropsH5198 of waterH4325: they pour downH2212 rainH4306 according to the vapourH108 thereof:
Which the cloudsH7834 do dropH5140 and distilH7491 upon manH120 abundantlyH7227.
Also can any understandH995 the spreadingsH4666 of the cloudsH5645, or the noiseH8663 of his tabernacleH5521?
Behold, he spreadethH6566 his lightH216 upon it, and coverethH3680 the bottomH8328 of the seaH3220. {bottom: Heb. roots}
For by them judgethH1777 he the peopleH5971; he givethH5414 meatH400 in abundanceH4342.
With cloudsH3709 he coverethH3680 the lightH216; and commandethH6680 it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixtH6293.
The noiseH7452 thereof shewethH5046 concerning it, the cattleH4735 also concerning the vapourH5927. {the vapour: Heb. that which goeth up}
He will turn againH7725, he will have compassionH7355 upon us; he will subdueH3533 our iniquitiesH5771; and thou wilt castH7993 all their sinsH2403 into the depthsH4688 of the seaH3220.
AndG1161 aboveG4253 all thingsG3956 haveG2192 ferventG1618 charityG26 amongG1519 yourselvesG1438: forG3754 charityG26 shall coverG2572 the multitudeG4128 of sinsG266. {shall: or, will}
