King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
Let us walkG4043 honestlyG2156, asG5613 inG1722 the dayG2250; notG3361 in riotingG2970 andG2532 drunkennessG3178, notG3361 in chamberingG2845 andG2532 wantonnessG766, notG3361 in strifeG2054 andG2532 envyingG2205. {honestly: or, decently}
ButG235 put ye onG1746 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 makeG4160 notG3361 provisionG4307 forG1519 the fleshG4561, to fulfil the lustsG1939 thereof.
PaulG3972, a servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652, separatedG873 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316,
I sayG3004 the truthG225 inG1722 ChristG5547, I lieG5574 notG3756, myG3450 conscienceG4893 also bearingG4828 meG3427 witnessG4828 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
ThatG3754 IG3427 haveG2076 greatG3173 heavinessG3077 andG2532 continualG88 sorrow inG3601 myG3450 heartG2588.
ForG1063 IG1473 could wishG2172 that myselfG846 wereG1511 accursedG331 fromG575 ChristG5547 forG5228 myG3450 brethrenG80, myG3450 kinsmenG4773 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561: {accursed: or, separated}
WhoG3748 areG1526 IsraelitesG2475; to whomG3739 pertaineth the adoptionG5206, andG2532 the gloryG1391, andG2532 the covenantsG1242, andG2532 the giving of the lawG3548, andG2532 the serviceG2999 of God, andG2532 the promisesG1860; {covenants: or, testaments}
WhoseG3739 are the fathersG3962, andG2532 ofG1537 whomG3739 as concerningG2596 the fleshG4561 ChristG5547 came, whoG5607 is overG1909 allG3956, GodG2316 blessedG2128 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281.
I sayG3004 thenG3767+G3361, HathG683 GodG2316 cast awayG683 hisG846 peopleG2992? God forbidG3361+G1096. ForG1063 IG1473 alsoG2532 amG1510 an IsraeliteG2475, ofG1537 the seedG4690 of AbrahamG11, of the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958.
To allG3956 that beG5607 inG1722 RomeG4516, belovedG27 of GodG2316, calledG2822 to be saintsG40: GraceG5485 to youG5213 andG2532 peaceG1515 fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
YeaG1161, soG3779 have I strivedG5389 to preach the gospelG2097, notG3756 whereG3699 ChristG5547 was namedG3687, lestG3363 I should buildG3618 uponG1909 another man'sG245 foundationG2310:
ButG235 asG2531 it is writtenG1125, To whomG3739 heG846 wasG312 notG3756 spokenG312 ofG4012, they shall seeG3700: andG2532 theyG3739 that haveG191 notG3756 heardG191 shall understandG4920.
For which causeG1352 alsoG2532 I have beenG1465 muchG4183 hinderedG1465 from comingG2064 toG4314 youG5209. {much: or, many ways, or oftentimes}
ButG1161 nowG3570 havingG2192 no moreG3371 placeG5117 inG1722 theseG575+G5125 partsG2824, andG1161 havingG2192 a great desireG1974 these manyG4183 yearsG2094 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209;
ByG1223 whomG3739 we have receivedG2983 graceG5485 andG2532 apostleshipG651, forG1519 obedienceG5218 to the faithG4102 amongG1722 allG3956 nationsG1484, forG5228 hisG846 nameG3686: {for obedience…: or, to the obedience of faith}
AmongG1722 whomG3739 areG2075 yeG5210 alsoG2532 the calledG2822 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
NowG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50, brethrenG80, thatG3754 oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, (butG2532 was letG2967 hithertoG891+G1204,) thatG2443 I might haveG2192 someG5100 fruitG2590 amongG1722 youG5213 alsoG2532, even asG2531+G2532 amongG1722 otherG3062 GentilesG1484. {among: or, in}
I amG1510 debtorG3781 bothG5037 to the GreeksG1672, andG2532 to the BarbariansG915; bothG5037 to the wiseG4680, andG2532 to the unwiseG453.
SoG3779, as much asG2596 in me isG1691, I am readyG4289 to preach the gospelG2097 to youG5213 that are atG1722 RomeG4516 alsoG2532.
Him that is weakG770 in the faithG4102 receive yeG4355, butG1161 notG3361 toG1519 doubtfulG1261 disputationsG1253. {not…: or, not to judge his doubtful thoughts}
ForG3303 oneG3739 believethG4100 that he may eatG5315 all thingsG3956: anotherG1161, who is weakG770, eatethG2068 herbsG3001.
LetG1848 notG3361 him that eatethG2068 despiseG1848 him that eatethG2068 notG3361; andG2532 letG2068 notG3361 him which eatethG2068 notG3361 judgeG2919 him that eatethG2068: forG1063 GodG2316 hath receivedG4355 himG846.
WhoG5101 artG1488 thouG4771 that judgestG2919 another man'sG245 servantG3610? to his ownG2398 masterG2962 he standethG4739 orG2228 fallethG4098. YeaG1161, he shall be holden upG2476: forG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 ableG1415 to makeG2476 himG846 standG2476.
OneG3303 manG3739 esteemethG2919 one dayG2250 aboveG3844 anotherG2250+G1161: anotherG3739 esteemethG2919 everyG3956 dayG2250 alike. LetG4135 every manG1538 be fully persuadedG4135 inG1722 his ownG2398 mindG3563. {fully persuaded: or, fully assured}
He that regardethG5426 the dayG2250, regardethG5426 it unto the LordG2962; andG2532 he that regardethG5426 notG3361 the dayG2250, to the LordG2962 he dothG5426 notG3756 regardG5426 it. He that eatethG2068, eatethG2068 to the LordG2962, forG1063 he giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168; andG2532 he that eatethG2068 notG3361, to the LordG2962 he eatethG2068 notG3756, andG2532 giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168. {regardeth: or, observeth}
ForG1063 noneG3762 of usG2257 livethG2198 to himselfG1438, andG2532 no manG3762 diethG599 to himselfG1438.
ForG1063 whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198, we liveG2198 unto the LordG2962; and whetherG1437+G5037 we dieG599, we dieG599 unto the LordG2962: whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198 thereforeG3767, orG1437+G5037 dieG599, we areG2070 the Lord'sG2962.
ForG1063 toG1519 thisG5124 end ChristG5547 bothG2532 diedG599, andG2532 roseG450, andG2532 revivedG326, thatG2443 he might be LordG2961 bothG2532 of the deadG3498 andG2532 livingG2198.
ButG1161 whyG5101 dostG2919 thouG4771 judgeG2919 thyG4675 brotherG80? orG2228+G2532 whyG5101 dostG1848 thouG4771 set at noughtG1848 thyG4675 brotherG80? forG1063 we shallG3936 allG3956 stand beforeG3936 the judgment seatG968 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, As IG1473 liveG2198, saithG3004 the LordG2962+G3754, everyG3956 kneeG1119 shall bowG2578 to meG1698, andG2532 everyG3956 tongueG1100 shall confessG1843 to GodG2316.
SoG3767 thenG686 every oneG1538 of usG2257 shall giveG1325 accountG3056 ofG4012 himselfG1438 to GodG2316.
Let usG2919 not thereforeG3767 judgeG2919 one anotherG240 any moreG3371: butG235 judgeG2919 thisG5124 ratherG3123, that no manG3361 putG5087 a stumblingblockG4348 orG2228 an occasion to fallG4625 in his brother's wayG80.
I knowG1492, andG2532 am persuadedG3982 byG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, thatG3754 there is nothingG3762 uncleanG2839 ofG1223 itselfG1438: butG1508 to him that esteemethG3049 any thingG5100 to beG1511 uncleanG2839, to himG1565 it is uncleanG2839. {unclean: Gr. common}
ButG1161 ifG1487 thyG4675 brotherG80 be grievedG3076 withG1223 thy meatG1033, nowG3765 walkest thouG4043 notG3765 charitablyG26+G2596. DestroyG622 notG3361 himG1565 with thyG4675 meatG1033, forG5228 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599. {charitably: Gr. according to charity}
Let notG3361 thenG3767 yourG5216 goodG18 be evil spoken ofG987:
ForG1063 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 notG3756 meatG1035 andG2532 drinkG4213; butG235 righteousnessG1343, andG2532 peaceG1515, andG2532 joyG5479 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ForG1063 he that inG1722 these thingsG5125 servethG1398 ChristG5547 is acceptableG2101 to GodG2316, andG2532 approvedG1384 of menG444.
Let usG1377 thereforeG686+G3767 follow afterG1377 the things which make forG3588 peaceG1515, andG2532 things wherewithG1519 oneG240 may edifyG3619 anotherG240.
ForG1752 meatG1033 destroyG2647 notG3361 the workG2041 of GodG2316. All thingsG3956 indeedG3303 are pureG2513; butG235 it is evilG2556 for that manG444 who eatethG2068 withG1223 offenceG4348.
It is goodG2570 neitherG3361 to eatG5315 fleshG2907, norG3366 to drinkG4095 wineG3631, norG3366 any thing wherebyG1722+G3739 thyG4675 brotherG80 stumblethG4350, orG2228 is offendedG4624, orG2228 is made weakG770.
HastG2192 thouG4771 faithG4102? haveG2192 it toG2596 thyselfG4572 beforeG1799 GodG2316. HappyG3107 is he that condemnethG2919 notG3361 himselfG1438 inG1722 that thing whichG3739 he allowethG1381.
AndG1161 he that doubtethG1252 is damnedG2632 ifG1437 he eatG5315, becauseG3754 he eateth notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102: forG1161 whatsoeverG3739+G3956 is notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102 isG2076 sinG266. {doubteth: or, discerneth and putteth a difference between meats} {damned: or, condemned, or liable to punishment}
WeG2249 thenG1161 that are strongG1415 oughtG3784 to bearG941 the infirmitiesG771 of the weakG102, andG2532 notG3361 to pleaseG700 ourselvesG1438.
LetG700 every oneG1538 of usG2257 pleaseG700 his neighbourG4139 forG1519 his goodG18 toG4314 edificationG3619.
ForG1063 evenG2532 ChristG5547 pleasedG700 notG3756 himselfG1438; butG235, asG2531 it is writtenG1125, The reproachesG3680 of them that reproachedG3679 theeG4571 fellG1968 onG1909 meG1691.
ForG1063 whatsoever thingsG3745 were written aforetimeG4270 were writtenG4270 forG1519 ourG2251 learningG1319, thatG2443 weG2192 throughG1223 patienceG5281 andG2532 comfortG3874 of the scripturesG1124 might haveG2192 hopeG1680.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of patienceG5281 andG2532 consolationG3874 grantG1325 youG5213 to beG846 likemindedG5426 oneG240 toward anotherG1722+G240 accordingG2596 to ChristG5547 JesusG2424: {according to: or, after the example of}
ThatG2443 ye mayG1392 with one mindG3661 andG1722 oneG1520 mouthG4750 glorifyG1392 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 receive yeG4355 one anotherG240, asG2531+G2532 ChristG5547 alsoG2531 receivedG4355 usG2248 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 I sayG3004 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG1096 a ministerG1249 of the circumcisionG4061 forG5228 the truthG225 of GodG2316, toG1519 confirmG950 the promisesG1860 made unto the fathersG3962:
AndG1161 that the GentilesG1484 might glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG5228 his mercyG1656; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 I will confessG1843 to theeG4671 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 singG5567 unto thyG4675 nameG3686.
AndG2532 againG3825 he saithG3004, Rejoice, yeG2165 GentilesG1484, withG3326 hisG846 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, PraiseG134 the LordG2962, allG3956 yeG134 GentilesG1484; andG2532 laudG1867 himG846, all yeG3956 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, EsaiasG2268 saithG3004, There shall beG2071 a rootG4491 of JesseG2421, andG2532 he that shall riseG450 to reign overG757 the GentilesG1484; inG1909 himG846 shallG1679 the GentilesG1484 trustG1679.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of hopeG1680 fillG4137 youG5209 with allG3956 joyG5479 andG2532 peaceG1515 inG1722 believingG4100, thatG1519 yeG5209 may aboundG4052 inG1722 hopeG1680, throughG1722 the powerG1411 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
BeholdG2396, thouG4771 art calledG2028 a JewG2453, andG2532 restestG1879 in the lawG3551, andG2532 makest thy boastG2744 ofG1722 GodG2316,
NowG1161 aboutG2596 thatG1565 timeG2540 HerodG2264 the kingG935 stretched forthG1911 his handsG5495 to vexG2559 certainG5100 ofG575 the churchG1577. {stretched…: or, began}
AndG1161 he killedG337 JamesG2385 the brotherG80 of JohnG2491 with the swordG3162.
AndG2532 because he sawG1492 itG3754 pleasedG2076+G701 the JewsG2453, he proceeded furtherG4369 to takeG4815 PeterG4074 alsoG2532. (ThenG1161 wereG2258 the daysG2250 of unleavened breadG106.)
AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG3303+G3767 being brought on their wayG4311 byG5259 the churchG1577, they passed throughG1330 PheniceG5403 andG2532 SamariaG4540, declaringG1555 the conversionG1995 of the GentilesG1484: andG2532 they causedG4160 greatG3173 joyG5479 unto allG3956 the brethrenG80.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 there rose upG1817 certainG5100 ofG575 the sectG139 of the PhariseesG5330 which believedG4100, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 it was needfulG1163 to circumciseG4059 themG846, andG5037 to commandG3853 them to keepG5083 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. {rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain}
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
AndG1161 when there had beenG1096 muchG4183 disputingG4803, PeterG4074 rose upG450, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, yeG5210 knowG1987 how thatG3754 a goodG744 whileG2250 agoG575 GodG2316 made choiceG1586 amongG1722 usG2254, that the GentilesG1484 byG1223 myG3450 mouthG4750 should hearG191 the wordG3056 of the gospelG2098, andG2532 believeG4100.
AndG2532 GodG2316, which knoweth the heartsG2589, bare themG846 witnessG3140, givingG1325 themG846 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2532 asG2531 he did unto usG2254;
AndG2532 putG1252 noG3762 differenceG1252 betweenG3342+G5037 usG2257 andG2532 themG846, purifyingG2511 theirG846 heartsG2588 by faithG4102.
NowG3568 thereforeG3767 whyG5101 tempt yeG3985 GodG2316, to putG2007 a yokeG2218 uponG1909 the neckG5137 of the disciplesG3101, whichG3739 neitherG3777 ourG2257 fathersG3962 norG3777 weG2249 were ableG2480 to bearG941?
ButG235 we believeG4100 that throughG1223 the graceG5485 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 we shall be savedG4982, evenG2596+G3739 asG5158 theyG2548.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 gave audienceG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 themG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 they had heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435 and brethrenG80, hearkenG191 unto meG3450:
SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 did visitG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 out ofG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125,
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 the ruinsG2679 thereofG846, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461:
ThatG3704+G302 the residueG2645 of menG444 might seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941+G1909+G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
WhereforeG1352 myG1473 sentence isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whichG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316:
ButG235 that we writeG1989 unto themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from fornicationG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596+G3956 sabbath dayG4521.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495+G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 unto the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791:
Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 which went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291:
It seemed goodG1380 unto usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 untoG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972,
MenG444 that have hazardedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056. {mouth: Gr. word}
ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876;
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
SoG3303+G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992:
Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874. {consolation: or, exhortation}
And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them.
AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a spaceG5550, they were let goG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 untoG4314 the apostlesG652.
NotwithstandingG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961.
PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 untoG4314 BarnabasG921+G1211, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722+G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138.
ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041.
AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departed asunderG673 one from the otherG575+G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 untoG1519 CyprusG2954;
AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being recommendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 unto the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
AfterG1161+G5613 these thingsG5023 were endedG4137, PaulG3972 purposedG5087 inG1722 the spiritG4151, when he had passed throughG1330 MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882, to goG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, sayingG2036, AfterG3754+G3326 IG3165 have beenG1096 thereG1563, IG3165 mustG1163 alsoG2532 seeG1492 RomeG4516.
YeaG1161, soG3779 have I strivedG5389 to preach the gospelG2097, notG3756 whereG3699 ChristG5547 was namedG3687, lestG3363 I should buildG3618 uponG1909 another man'sG245 foundationG2310:
I commendG4921 unto youG5213 PhebeG5402 ourG2257 sisterG79, which isG5607 a servantG1249 of the churchG1577 whichG3588 is atG1722 CenchreaG2747:
ThatG2443 ye receiveG4327 herG846 inG1722 the LordG2962, as becomethG516 saintsG40, andG2532 that ye assistG3936 herG846 inG1722 whatsoeverG3739+G302 businessG4229 she hath needG5535 of youG5216: forG1063 sheG3778+G846 hath beenG1096 a succourerG4368 of manyG4183, andG2532 of myselfG846+G1700 alsoG2532.
GreetG782 PriscillaG4252 andG2532 AquilaG207 myG3450 helpersG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhoG3748 haveG5294 forG5228 myG3450 lifeG5590 laid downG5294 their ownG1438 necksG5137: unto whomG3739 notG3756 onlyG3441 IG1473 give thanksG2168, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 the churchesG1577 of the GentilesG1484.
LikewiseG2532 greet the churchG1577 that is inG2596 theirG846 houseG3624. SaluteG782 myG3450 wellbelovedG27 EpaenetusG1866, whoG3739 isG2076 the firstfruitsG536 of AchaiaG882 untoG1519 ChristG5547.
GreetG782 MaryG3137, whoG3748 bestowedG2872 muchG4183 labourG2872 onG1519 usG2248.
SaluteG782 AndronicusG408 andG2532 JuniaG2458, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, andG2532 myG3450 fellowprisonersG4869, whoG3748 areG1526 of noteG1978 amongG1722 the apostlesG652, whoG3739 alsoG2532 wereG1096 inG1722 ChristG5547 beforeG4253 meG1700.
GreetG782 AmpliasG291 myG3450 belovedG27 inG1722 the LordG2962.
SaluteG782 UrbaneG3773, ourG2257 helperG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG2532 StachysG4720 myG3450 belovedG27.
SaluteG782 ApellesG559 approvedG1384 inG1722 ChristG5547. SaluteG782 themG3588 which are ofG1537 Aristobulus'G711 household. {household: or, friends}
SaluteG782 HerodionG2267 myG3450 kinsmanG4773. GreetG782 themG3588 that be ofG1537 the household of NarcissusG3488, whichG3588 areG5607 inG1722 the LordG2962. {household: or, friends}
SaluteG782 TryphenaG5170 andG2532 TryphosaG5173, who labourG2872 inG1722 the LordG2962. SaluteG782 the belovedG27 PersisG4069, whichG3748 labouredG2872 muchG4183 inG1722 the LordG2962.
SaluteG782 RufusG4504 chosenG1588 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 andG2532 mineG1700.
SaluteG782 AsyncritusG799, PhlegonG5393, HermasG2057, PatrobasG3969, HermesG2060, andG2532 the brethrenG80 which are withG4862 themG846.
SaluteG782 PhilologusG5378, andG2532 JuliaG2456, NereusG3517, andG2532 hisG846 sisterG79, andG2532 OlympasG3652, andG2532 allG3956 the saintsG40 which are withG4862 themG846.
SaluteG782 one anotherG240 withG1722 an holyG40 kissG5370. The churchesG1577 of ChristG5547 saluteG782 youG5209.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, markG4648 them which causeG4160 divisionsG1370 andG2532 offencesG4625 contraryG3844 to the doctrineG1322 whichG3739 yeG5210 have learnedG3129; andG2532 avoidG1578 themG575+G846.
ForG1063 they that are suchG5108 serveG1398 notG3756 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 their ownG1438 bellyG2836; andG2532 byG1223 good wordsG5542 andG2532 fair speechesG2129 deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the simpleG172.
ForG1063 yourG5216 obedienceG5218 is come abroadG864 untoG1519 allG3956 men. I am gladG5463 thereforeG3767 onG1909 yourG5213 behalfG1909: but yetG1161 I would haveG2309 youG5209 wiseG4680 untoG1519 that which isG1511 goodG3303+G18, andG1161 simpleG185 concerningG1519 evilG2556. {simple: or, harmless}
AndG1161 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 shall bruiseG4937 SatanG4567 underG5259 yourG5216 feetG4228 shortlyG1722+G5034. The graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG5216. AmenG281. {bruise: or, tread}
TimotheusG5095 myG3450 workfellowG4904, andG2532 LuciusG3066, andG2532 JasonG2394, andG2532 SosipaterG4989, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, saluteG782 youG5209.
IG1473 TertiusG5060, who wroteG1125 this epistleG1992, saluteG782 youG5209 inG1722 the LordG2962.
GaiusG1050 mineG3450 hostG3581, andG2532 of the wholeG3650 churchG1577, salutethG782 youG5209. ErastusG2037 the chamberlainG3623 of the cityG4172 salutethG782 youG5209, andG2532 QuartusG2890 a brotherG80.
The graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG5216 allG3956. AmenG281.
NowG1161 to him that is of powerG1410 to stablishG4741 youG5209 accordingG2596 to myG3450 gospelG2098, andG2532 the preachingG2782 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, accordingG2596 to the revelationG602 of the mysteryG3466, which was kept secretG4601 since the world beganG5550+G166,
ButG1161 nowG3568 is made manifestG5319, andG5037 byG1223 the scripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4397, accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of the everlastingG166 GodG2316, made knownG1107 toG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484 forG1519 the obedienceG5218 of faithG4102:
To GodG2316 onlyG3441 wiseG4680, be gloryG1391 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {Written to the Romans from Corinthus, and sent by Phebe servant of the church at Cenchrea.}
AndG2532 when they were escapedG1295, thenG5119 they knewG1921 thatG3754 the islandG3520 was calledG2564 MelitaG3194.
AndG1161 the barbarous peopleG915 shewedG3930 usG2254 noG3756 littleG5177 kindnessG5363: forG1063 they kindledG381 a fireG4443, and receivedG4355 usG2248 every oneG3956, becauseG1223 of the presentG2186 rainG5205, andG2532 becauseG1223 of the coldG5592.
AndG1161 when PaulG3972 had gatheredG4962 a bundleG4128 of sticksG5434, andG2532 laidG2007 them onG1909 the fireG4443, there cameG1831 a viperG2191 out ofG1537 the heatG2329, and fastened onG2510 hisG846 handG5495.
AndG1161 whenG5613 the barbariansG915 sawG1492 the venomous beastG2342 hangG2910 onG1537 hisG846 handG5495, they saidG3004 amongG4314 themselvesG240, No doubtG3843 thisG3778 manG444 isG2076 a murdererG5406, whomG3739, though he hath escapedG1295+G1537 the seaG2281, yet vengeanceG1349 sufferethG1439 notG3756 to liveG2198.
AndG3303+G3767 he shook offG660 the beastG2342 intoG1519 the fireG4442, and feltG3958 noG3762 harmG2556.
HowbeitG1161 they lookedG4328 when heG846 shouldG3195 have swollenG4092, orG2228 fallen downG2667 deadG3498 suddenlyG869: butG1161 after theyG846 had lookedG4328 a great whileG1909+G4183, andG2532 sawG2334 noG3367 harmG824 comeG1096 toG1519 himG846, they changed their mindsG3328, and saidG3004 that heG846 wasG1511 a godG2316.
InG1722+G4012 the sameG1565 quartersG5117 wereG5225 possessionsG5564 of the chief manG4413 of the islandG3520, whose name wasG3686 PubliusG4196; whoG3739 receivedG324 usG2248, and lodged usG3579 threeG5140 daysG2250 courteouslyG5390.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that the fatherG3962 of PubliusG4196 layG2621 sick ofG4912 a feverG4446 andG2532 of a bloody fluxG1420: toG4314 whomG3739 PaulG3972 entered inG1525, andG2532 prayedG4336, and laidG2007 his handsG5495 onG2007 himG846, and healedG2390 himG846.
SoG3767 whenG1096 thisG5127 was doneG1096, othersG3062 alsoG2532, whichG3588 hadG2192 diseasesG769 inG1722 the islandG3520, cameG4334, andG2532 were healedG2323:
WhoG3739 alsoG2532 honouredG5092 usG2248 with manyG4183 honoursG5091; andG2532 when we departedG321, they ladedG2007 us with such things asG4314 were necessaryG5532.
AndG1161 afterG3326 threeG5140 monthsG3376 we departedG321 inG1722 a shipG4143 of AlexandriaG222, which had winteredG3914 inG1722 the isleG3520, whose signG3902 was Castor and PolluxG1359.
AndG2532 landingG2609 atG1519 SyracuseG4946, we tarriedG1961 there threeG5140 daysG2250.
And from thenceG3606 we fetched a compassG4022, and cameG2658 toG1519 RhegiumG4484: andG2532 afterG3326 oneG3391 dayG2250 the south windG3558 blewG1920, and we cameG2064 the next dayG1206 toG1519 PuteoliG4223:
WhereG3757 we foundG2147 brethrenG80, and were desiredG3870 to tarryG1961 withG1909 themG846 sevenG2033 daysG2250: andG2532 soG3779 we wentG2064 towardG1519 RomeG4516.
And from thenceG2547, when the brethrenG80 heardG191 ofG4012 usG2257, they cameG1831 to meetG529+G1519 usG2254 as far asG891 AppiiG675 forumG5410, andG2532 The threeG5140 tavernsG4999: whomG3739 when PaulG3972 sawG1492, he thankedG2168 GodG2316, and tookG2983 courageG2294.
AndG1161 whenG3753 we cameG2064 toG1519 RomeG4516, the centurionG1543 deliveredG3860 the prisonersG1198 to the captain of the guardG4759: butG1161 PaulG3972 was sufferedG2010 to dwellG3306 byG2596 himselfG1438 withG4862 a soldierG4757 that keptG5442 himG846.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that afterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 PaulG3972 calledG4779 the chiefG4413+G5607 of the JewsG2453 togetherG4779: andG1161 when theyG846 were come togetherG4905, he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, though IG1473 have committedG4160 nothingG3762 againstG1727 the peopleG2992, orG2228 customsG1485 of our fathersG3971, yet was I deliveredG3860 prisonerG1198 fromG1537 JerusalemG2414 intoG1519 the handsG5495 of the RomansG4514.
WhoG3748, when they had examinedG350 meG3165, wouldG1014 have let me goG630, becauseG1223 there wasG5225 noG3367 causeG156 of deathG2288 inG1722 meG1698.
ButG1161 when the JewsG2453 spake againstG483 it, I was constrainedG315 to appealG1941 unto CaesarG2541; notG3756 thatG5613 I hadG2192 oughtG5100 to accuseG2723 myG3450 nationG1484 ofG2723.
ForG1223 thisG5026 causeG156 thereforeG3767 have I calledG3870 for youG5209, to seeG1492 you, andG2532 to speak withG4354 you: because thatG1752 forG1063 the hopeG1680 of IsraelG2474 I am bound withG4029 thisG5026 chainG254.
AndG1161 they saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, WeG2249 neitherG3777 receivedG1209 lettersG1121 out ofG575 JudaeaG2449 concerningG4012 theeG4675, neitherG3777 anyG5100 of the brethrenG80 that cameG3854 shewedG518 orG2228 spakeG2980 anyG5100 harmG4190 ofG4012 theeG4675.
ButG1161 we desireG515 to hearG191 ofG3844 theeG4675 whatG3739 thou thinkestG5426: forG1063 as concerningG4012+G3303 thisG5026 sectG139, weG2254 knowG2076+G1110 thatG3754 every whereG3837 it is spoken againstG483.
AndG1161 when they had appointedG5021 himG846 a dayG2250, there cameG2240 manyG4119 toG4314 himG846 intoG1519 his lodgingG3578; to whomG3739 he expoundedG1620 and testifiedG1263 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316+G5037, persuadingG3982 themG846 concerningG4012 JesusG2424, bothG5037 out ofG575 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475, andG2532 out of the prophetsG4396, fromG575 morningG4404 tillG2193 eveningG2073.
AndG2532 someG3303 believedG3982 the things which were spokenG3004, andG1161 some believed notG569.
AndG1161 when they agreed notG800+G5607 amongG4314 themselvesG240, they departedG630, after that PaulG3972 had spokenG2036 oneG1520 wordG4487+G3754, WellG2573 spakeG2980 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 byG1223 EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396 untoG4314 ourG2257 fathersG3962,
SayingG3004, GoG4198 untoG4314 thisG5126 peopleG2992, andG2532 sayG2036, HearingG189 ye shall hearG191, andG2532 shallG4920 notG3364 understandG4920; andG2532 seeingG991 ye shall seeG991, andG2532 notG3364 perceiveG1492:
ForG1063 the heartG2588 of thisG5127 peopleG2992 is waxed grossG3975, andG2532 their earsG3775 are dullG917 of hearingG191, andG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788 have they closedG2576; lestG3379 they should seeG1492 with their eyesG3788, andG2532 hearG191 with their earsG3775, andG2532 understandG4920 with their heartG2588, andG2532 should be convertedG1994, andG2532 I should healG2390 themG846.
Be itG2077 knownG1110 thereforeG3767 unto youG5213, thatG3754 the salvationG4992 of GodG2316 is sentG649 unto the GentilesG1484, andG2532 that they will hearG191 itG846.
AndG2532 when heG846 had saidG2036 these wordsG5023, the JewsG2453 departedG565, and hadG2192 greatG4183 reasoningG4803 amongG1722 themselvesG1438.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 dweltG3306 twoG1333 wholeG3650 yearsG1333 inG1722 his ownG2398 hired houseG3410, andG2532 receivedG588 allG3956 that came inG1531 untoG4314 himG846,
PreachingG2784 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, andG2532 teachingG1321 those things which concernG4012 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, withG3326 allG3956 confidenceG3954, no man forbidding himG209.
PhrygiaG5435, andG5037+G2532 PamphyliaG3828, in EgyptG125, andG2532 in the partsG3313 of LibyaG3033 aboutG2596 CyreneG2957, andG2532 strangersG1927 of RomeG4514+G5037, JewsG2453 andG5037+G2532 proselytesG4339,
GreetG782 PriscillaG4252 andG2532 AquilaG207 myG3450 helpersG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhoG3748 haveG5294 forG5228 myG3450 lifeG5590 laid downG5294 their ownG1438 necksG5137: unto whomG3739 notG3756 onlyG3441 IG1473 give thanksG2168, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 the churchesG1577 of the GentilesG1484.
LikewiseG2532 greet the churchG1577 that is inG2596 theirG846 houseG3624. SaluteG782 myG3450 wellbelovedG27 EpaenetusG1866, whoG3739 isG2076 the firstfruitsG536 of AchaiaG882 untoG1519 ChristG5547.
Making requestG1189, if by any meansG1513 nowG2235 at lengthG4218 I might have a prosperous journeyG2137 byG1722 the willG2307 of GodG2316 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209.
ForG1063 I longG1971 to seeG1492 youG5209, thatG2443 I may impartG3330 unto youG5213 someG5100 spiritualG4152 giftG5486, to the endG1519 yeG5209 may be establishedG4741;
ThatG1161+G5124 isG2076, that I may be comforted togetherG4837 withG1722 youG5213 byG1223+G1722 the mutualG240 faithG4102 bothG5037 of youG5216 andG2532 meG1700. {with: or, in}
NowG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50, brethrenG80, thatG3754 oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, (butG2532 was letG2967 hithertoG891+G1204,) thatG2443 I might haveG2192 someG5100 fruitG2590 amongG1722 youG5213 alsoG2532, even asG2531+G2532 amongG1722 otherG3062 GentilesG1484. {among: or, in}
ButG1161 nowG3570 havingG2192 no moreG3371 placeG5117 inG1722 theseG575+G5125 partsG2824, andG1161 havingG2192 a great desireG1974 these manyG4183 yearsG2094 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209;
WhensoeverG5613+G1437 I take my journeyG4198 intoG1519 SpainG4681, I will comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209: forG1063 I trustG1679 to seeG2300 youG5209 in my journeyG1279, andG2532 to be brought on my wayG4311 thitherwardG1563 byG5259 youG5216, ifG1437 firstG4412 I beG1705 somewhatG3313 filledG1705 withG575 yourG5216 company. {with…: Gr. with you}
ButG1161 nowG3570 I goG4198 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 to ministerG1247 unto the saintsG40.
ButG1161 nowG3570 I goG4198 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 to ministerG1247 unto the saintsG40.
ForG1063 it hath pleased themG2106 of MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882 to makeG4160 a certainG5100 contributionG2842 forG1519 the poorG4434 saintsG40 whichG3588 are atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
It hath pleased themG2106 verilyG1063; andG2532 theirG846 debtorsG3781 they areG1526. ForG1063 ifG1487 the GentilesG1484 have been made partakersG2841 of theirG846 spiritual thingsG4152, their duty isG3784 alsoG2532 to ministerG3008 unto themG846 inG1722 carnal thingsG4559.
When thereforeG3767 I have performedG2005 thisG5124, andG2532 have sealedG4972 to themG846 thisG5126 fruitG2590, I will comeG565 byG1223 youG5216 intoG1519 SpainG4681.
AndG1161 I am sureG1492 thatG3754, when I comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, I shall comeG2064 inG1722 the fulnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, forG1223 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ'sG5547 sakeG2257, andG2532 forG1223 the loveG26 of the SpiritG4151, that ye strive togetherG4865 with meG3427 inG1722 your prayersG4335 toG4314 GodG2316 forG5228 meG1700;
ThatG2443 I may be deliveredG4506 fromG575 them that do not believeG544 inG1722 JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thatG2443 myG3450 serviceG1248 whichG3588 I have forG1519 JerusalemG2419 may beG1096 acceptedG2144 of the saintsG40; {do not…: or, are disobedient}
ThatG2443 I may comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 withG1722 joyG5479 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 mayG4875 with youG5213 be refreshedG4875.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 be withG3326 youG5216 allG3956. AmenG281.
AfterG1161+G5613 these thingsG5023 were endedG4137, PaulG3972 purposedG5087 inG1722 the spiritG4151, when he had passed throughG1330 MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882, to goG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, sayingG2036, AfterG3754+G3326 IG3165 have beenG1096 thereG1563, IG3165 mustG1163 alsoG2532 seeG1492 RomeG4516.
SoG1161 he sentG649 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109 twoG1417 of them that ministeredG1247 unto himG846, TimotheusG5095 andG2532 ErastusG2037; but he himselfG846 stayedG1907 inG1519 AsiaG773 for a seasonG5550.
I commendG4921 unto youG5213 PhebeG5402 ourG2257 sisterG79, which isG5607 a servantG1249 of the churchG1577 whichG3588 is atG1722 CenchreaG2747:
ThatG2443 ye receiveG4327 herG846 inG1722 the LordG2962, as becomethG516 saintsG40, andG2532 that ye assistG3936 herG846 inG1722 whatsoeverG3739+G302 businessG4229 she hath needG5535 of youG5216: forG1063 sheG3778+G846 hath beenG1096 a succourerG4368 of manyG4183, andG2532 of myselfG846+G1700 alsoG2532.
GaiusG1050 mineG3450 hostG3581, andG2532 of the wholeG3650 churchG1577, salutethG782 youG5209. ErastusG2037 the chamberlainG3623 of the cityG4172 salutethG782 youG5209, andG2532 QuartusG2890 a brotherG80.
I thankG2168 GodG2316 thatG3754 I baptizedG907 noneG3762 of youG5216, butG1508 CrispusG2921 andG2532 GaiusG1050;
GaiusG1050 mineG3450 hostG3581, andG2532 of the wholeG3650 churchG1577, salutethG782 youG5209. ErastusG2037 the chamberlainG3623 of the cityG4172 salutethG782 youG5209, andG2532 QuartusG2890 a brotherG80.
ErastusG2037 abodeG3306 atG1722 CorinthG2882: butG1161 TrophimusG5161 have I leftG620 atG1722 MiletumG3399 sickG770.
IG1473 TertiusG5060, who wroteG1125 this epistleG1992, saluteG782 youG5209 inG1722 the LordG2962.
WeG2249 thenG1161 that are strongG1415 oughtG3784 to bearG941 the infirmitiesG771 of the weakG102, andG2532 notG3361 to pleaseG700 ourselvesG1438.
LetG700 every oneG1538 of usG2257 pleaseG700 his neighbourG4139 forG1519 his goodG18 toG4314 edificationG3619.
ForG1063 evenG2532 ChristG5547 pleasedG700 notG3756 himselfG1438; butG235, asG2531 it is writtenG1125, The reproachesG3680 of them that reproachedG3679 theeG4571 fellG1968 onG1909 meG1691.
ForG1063 whatsoever thingsG3745 were written aforetimeG4270 were writtenG4270 forG1519 ourG2251 learningG1319, thatG2443 weG2192 throughG1223 patienceG5281 andG2532 comfortG3874 of the scripturesG1124 might haveG2192 hopeG1680.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of patienceG5281 andG2532 consolationG3874 grantG1325 youG5213 to beG846 likemindedG5426 oneG240 toward anotherG1722+G240 accordingG2596 to ChristG5547 JesusG2424: {according to: or, after the example of}
ThatG2443 ye mayG1392 with one mindG3661 andG1722 oneG1520 mouthG4750 glorifyG1392 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 receive yeG4355 one anotherG240, asG2531+G2532 ChristG5547 alsoG2531 receivedG4355 usG2248 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 I sayG3004 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG1096 a ministerG1249 of the circumcisionG4061 forG5228 the truthG225 of GodG2316, toG1519 confirmG950 the promisesG1860 made unto the fathersG3962:
AndG1161 that the GentilesG1484 might glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG5228 his mercyG1656; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 I will confessG1843 to theeG4671 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 singG5567 unto thyG4675 nameG3686.
AndG2532 againG3825 he saithG3004, Rejoice, yeG2165 GentilesG1484, withG3326 hisG846 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, PraiseG134 the LordG2962, allG3956 yeG134 GentilesG1484; andG2532 laudG1867 himG846, all yeG3956 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, EsaiasG2268 saithG3004, There shall beG2071 a rootG4491 of JesseG2421, andG2532 he that shall riseG450 to reign overG757 the GentilesG1484; inG1909 himG846 shallG1679 the GentilesG1484 trustG1679.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of hopeG1680 fillG4137 youG5209 with allG3956 joyG5479 andG2532 peaceG1515 inG1722 believingG4100, thatG1519 yeG5209 may aboundG4052 inG1722 hopeG1680, throughG1722 the powerG1411 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
AndG1161 IG1473 myselfG846 alsoG2532 am persuadedG3982 ofG4012 youG5216, myG3450 brethrenG80, thatG3754 yeG846 alsoG2532 areG2075 fullG3324 of goodnessG19, filledG4137 with allG3956 knowledgeG1108, ableG1410 alsoG2532 to admonishG3560 one anotherG240.
NeverthelessG1161, brethrenG80, I have writtenG1125 the more boldlyG5112 unto youG5213 inG575 some sortG3313, asG5613 puttingG1878 youG5209 in mindG1878, becauseG1223 of the graceG5485 that is givenG1325 to meG3427 ofG5259 GodG2316,
That IG3165 should beG1519+G1511 the ministerG3011 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316, thatG2443 the offering upG4376 of the GentilesG1484 might beG1096 acceptableG2144, being sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {offering up: or, sacrificing}
I haveG2192 therefore whereofG3767 I may gloryG2746 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 in those things which pertain toG4314 GodG2316.
ForG1063 I willG5111 notG3756 dareG5111 to speakG2980 of anyG5100 of those things whichG3739 ChristG5547 hathG2716 notG3756 wroughtG2716 byG1223 meG1700, to makeG1519 the GentilesG1484 obedientG5218, by wordG3056 andG2532 deedG2041,
ThroughG1722 mightyG1411 signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059, byG1722 the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316; soG5620 that fromG575 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 round aboutG2945 untoG3360 IllyricumG2437, IG3165 have fully preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
YeaG1161, soG3779 have I strivedG5389 to preach the gospelG2097, notG3756 whereG3699 ChristG5547 was namedG3687, lestG3363 I should buildG3618 uponG1909 another man'sG245 foundationG2310:
ButG235 asG2531 it is writtenG1125, To whomG3739 heG846 wasG312 notG3756 spokenG312 ofG4012, they shall seeG3700: andG2532 theyG3739 that haveG191 notG3756 heardG191 shall understandG4920.
For which causeG1352 alsoG2532 I have beenG1465 muchG4183 hinderedG1465 from comingG2064 toG4314 youG5209. {much: or, many ways, or oftentimes}
ButG1161 nowG3570 havingG2192 no moreG3371 placeG5117 inG1722 theseG575+G5125 partsG2824, andG1161 havingG2192 a great desireG1974 these manyG4183 yearsG2094 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209;
WhensoeverG5613+G1437 I take my journeyG4198 intoG1519 SpainG4681, I will comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209: forG1063 I trustG1679 to seeG2300 youG5209 in my journeyG1279, andG2532 to be brought on my wayG4311 thitherwardG1563 byG5259 youG5216, ifG1437 firstG4412 I beG1705 somewhatG3313 filledG1705 withG575 yourG5216 company. {with…: Gr. with you}
ButG1161 nowG3570 I goG4198 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 to ministerG1247 unto the saintsG40.
ForG1063 it hath pleased themG2106 of MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882 to makeG4160 a certainG5100 contributionG2842 forG1519 the poorG4434 saintsG40 whichG3588 are atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
It hath pleased themG2106 verilyG1063; andG2532 theirG846 debtorsG3781 they areG1526. ForG1063 ifG1487 the GentilesG1484 have been made partakersG2841 of theirG846 spiritual thingsG4152, their duty isG3784 alsoG2532 to ministerG3008 unto themG846 inG1722 carnal thingsG4559.
When thereforeG3767 I have performedG2005 thisG5124, andG2532 have sealedG4972 to themG846 thisG5126 fruitG2590, I will comeG565 byG1223 youG5216 intoG1519 SpainG4681.
AndG1161 I am sureG1492 thatG3754, when I comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, I shall comeG2064 inG1722 the fulnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, forG1223 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ'sG5547 sakeG2257, andG2532 forG1223 the loveG26 of the SpiritG4151, that ye strive togetherG4865 with meG3427 inG1722 your prayersG4335 toG4314 GodG2316 forG5228 meG1700;
ThatG2443 I may be deliveredG4506 fromG575 them that do not believeG544 inG1722 JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thatG2443 myG3450 serviceG1248 whichG3588 I have forG1519 JerusalemG2419 may beG1096 acceptedG2144 of the saintsG40; {do not…: or, are disobedient}
ThatG2443 I may comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 withG1722 joyG5479 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 mayG4875 with youG5213 be refreshedG4875.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 be withG3326 youG5216 allG3956. AmenG281.
I commendG4921 unto youG5213 PhebeG5402 ourG2257 sisterG79, which isG5607 a servantG1249 of the churchG1577 whichG3588 is atG1722 CenchreaG2747:
ThatG2443 ye receiveG4327 herG846 inG1722 the LordG2962, as becomethG516 saintsG40, andG2532 that ye assistG3936 herG846 inG1722 whatsoeverG3739+G302 businessG4229 she hath needG5535 of youG5216: forG1063 sheG3778+G846 hath beenG1096 a succourerG4368 of manyG4183, andG2532 of myselfG846+G1700 alsoG2532.
GreetG782 PriscillaG4252 andG2532 AquilaG207 myG3450 helpersG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhoG3748 haveG5294 forG5228 myG3450 lifeG5590 laid downG5294 their ownG1438 necksG5137: unto whomG3739 notG3756 onlyG3441 IG1473 give thanksG2168, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 the churchesG1577 of the GentilesG1484.
LikewiseG2532 greet the churchG1577 that is inG2596 theirG846 houseG3624. SaluteG782 myG3450 wellbelovedG27 EpaenetusG1866, whoG3739 isG2076 the firstfruitsG536 of AchaiaG882 untoG1519 ChristG5547.
GreetG782 MaryG3137, whoG3748 bestowedG2872 muchG4183 labourG2872 onG1519 usG2248.
SaluteG782 AndronicusG408 andG2532 JuniaG2458, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, andG2532 myG3450 fellowprisonersG4869, whoG3748 areG1526 of noteG1978 amongG1722 the apostlesG652, whoG3739 alsoG2532 wereG1096 inG1722 ChristG5547 beforeG4253 meG1700.

NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, markG4648 them which causeG4160 divisionsG1370 andG2532 offencesG4625 contraryG3844 to the doctrineG1322 whichG3739 yeG5210 have learnedG3129; andG2532 avoidG1578 themG575+G846.
ForG1063 they that are suchG5108 serveG1398 notG3756 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 their ownG1438 bellyG2836; andG2532 byG1223 good wordsG5542 andG2532 fair speechesG2129 deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the simpleG172.

NowG1161 to him that is of powerG1410 to stablishG4741 youG5209 accordingG2596 to myG3450 gospelG2098, andG2532 the preachingG2782 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, accordingG2596 to the revelationG602 of the mysteryG3466, which was kept secretG4601 since the world beganG5550+G166,
ButG1161 nowG3568 is made manifestG5319, andG5037 byG1223 the scripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4397, accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of the everlastingG166 GodG2316, made knownG1107 toG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484 forG1519 the obedienceG5218 of faithG4102:
To GodG2316 onlyG3441 wiseG4680, be gloryG1391 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {Written to the Romans from Corinthus, and sent by Phebe servant of the church at Cenchrea.}
AndG1161 he that doubtethG1252 is damnedG2632 ifG1437 he eatG5315, becauseG3754 he eateth notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102: forG1161 whatsoeverG3739+G3956 is notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102 isG2076 sinG266. {doubteth: or, discerneth and putteth a difference between meats} {damned: or, condemned, or liable to punishment}
ButG1161 ifG1487 thyG4675 brotherG80 be grievedG3076 withG1223 thy meatG1033, nowG3765 walkest thouG4043 notG3765 charitablyG26+G2596. DestroyG622 notG3361 himG1565 with thyG4675 meatG1033, forG5228 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599. {charitably: Gr. according to charity}

(WhichG3739 he had promised aforeG4279 byG1223 hisG846 prophetsG4396 inG1722 the holyG40 scripturesG1124,)
ConcerningG4012 hisG846 SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962, whichG3588 was madeG1096 ofG1537 the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561;
And declaredG3724 to be the SonG5207 of GodG2316 withG1722 powerG1411, accordingG2596 to the spiritG4151 of holinessG42, byG1537 the resurrectionG386 from the deadG3498: {declared: Gr. determined}
ByG1223 whomG3739 we have receivedG2983 graceG5485 andG2532 apostleshipG651, forG1519 obedienceG5218 to the faithG4102 amongG1722 allG3956 nationsG1484, forG5228 hisG846 nameG3686: {for obedience…: or, to the obedience of faith}
AmongG1722 whomG3739 areG2075 yeG5210 alsoG2532 the calledG2822 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To allG3956 that beG5607 inG1722 RomeG4516, belovedG27 of GodG2316, calledG2822 to be saintsG40: GraceG5485 to youG5213 andG2532 peaceG1515 fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
FirstG4412+G3303, I thankG2168 myG3450 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 allG3956, thatG3754 yourG5216 faithG4102 is spokenG2605 of throughoutG1722 the wholeG3650 worldG2889.
ForG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 myG3450 witnessG3144, whomG3739 I serveG3000 withG1722 myG3450 spiritG4151 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG5613 without ceasingG89 I makeG4160 mentionG3417 of youG5216 alwaysG3842 inG1909 myG3450 prayersG4335; {with: or, in}
Making requestG1189, if by any meansG1513 nowG2235 at lengthG4218 I might have a prosperous journeyG2137 byG1722 the willG2307 of GodG2316 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209.
ForG1063 I longG1971 to seeG1492 youG5209, thatG2443 I may impartG3330 unto youG5213 someG5100 spiritualG4152 giftG5486, to the endG1519 yeG5209 may be establishedG4741;
ThatG1161+G5124 isG2076, that I may be comforted togetherG4837 withG1722 youG5213 byG1223+G1722 the mutualG240 faithG4102 bothG5037 of youG5216 andG2532 meG1700. {with: or, in}
NowG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50, brethrenG80, thatG3754 oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, (butG2532 was letG2967 hithertoG891+G1204,) thatG2443 I might haveG2192 someG5100 fruitG2590 amongG1722 youG5213 alsoG2532, even asG2531+G2532 amongG1722 otherG3062 GentilesG1484. {among: or, in}
I amG1510 debtorG3781 bothG5037 to the GreeksG1672, andG2532 to the BarbariansG915; bothG5037 to the wiseG4680, andG2532 to the unwiseG453.
SoG3779, as much asG2596 in me isG1691, I am readyG4289 to preach the gospelG2097 to youG5213 that are atG1722 RomeG4516 alsoG2532.
ForG1063 I amG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: forG1063 it isG2076 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 untoG1519 salvationG4991 to every oneG3956 that believethG4100; to the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 to the GreekG1672.
ForG1063 thereinG1722+G846 isG601 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 revealedG601 fromG1537 faithG4102 toG1519 faithG4102: asG2531 it is writtenG1125+G1161, The justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102.

NowG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50, brethrenG80, thatG3754 oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, (butG2532 was letG2967 hithertoG891+G1204,) thatG2443 I might haveG2192 someG5100 fruitG2590 amongG1722 youG5213 alsoG2532, even asG2531+G2532 amongG1722 otherG3062 GentilesG1484. {among: or, in}
I amG1510 debtorG3781 bothG5037 to the GreeksG1672, andG2532 to the BarbariansG915; bothG5037 to the wiseG4680, andG2532 to the unwiseG453.

ForG1063 I amG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: forG1063 it isG2076 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 untoG1519 salvationG4991 to every oneG3956 that believethG4100; to the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 to the GreekG1672.
ForG1063 thereinG1722+G846 isG601 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 revealedG601 fromG1537 faithG4102 toG1519 faithG4102: asG2531 it is writtenG1125+G1161, The justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102.
ForG1063 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 is revealedG601 fromG575 heavenG3772 againstG1909 allG3956 ungodlinessG763 andG2532 unrighteousnessG93 of menG444, who holdG2722 the truthG225 inG1722 unrighteousnessG93;
BecauseG1360 that which may be knownG1110 of GodG2316 isG2076 manifestG5318 inG1722 themG846; forG1063 GodG2316 hath shewedG5319 it unto themG846. {in them: or, to them}
ForG1063 the invisible thingsG517 of himG846 fromG575 the creationG2937 of the worldG2889 are clearly seenG2529, being understoodG3539 by the things that are madeG4161, evenG5037 hisG846 eternalG126 powerG1411 andG2532 GodheadG2305; soG1519 that theyG846 areG1511 without excuseG379: {so…: or, that they may be}
BecauseG1360 that, when they knewG1097 GodG2316, they glorifiedG1392 him notG3756 asG5613 GodG2316, neitherG2228 were thankfulG2168; butG235 became vainG3154 inG1722 theirG846 imaginationsG1261, andG2532 theirG846 foolishG801 heartG2588 was darkenedG4654.
Professing themselvesG5335 to beG1511 wiseG4680, they became foolsG3471,
AndG2532 changedG236 the gloryG1391 of the uncorruptibleG862 GodG2316 intoG1722 an imageG1504 made likeG3667 to corruptibleG5349 manG444, andG2532 to birdsG4071, andG2532 fourfooted beastsG5074, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062.
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 toG1519 uncleannessG167 throughG1722 the lustsG1939 of their ownG846 heartsG2588, to dishonourG818 their ownG846 bodiesG4983 betweenG1722 themselvesG1438:
WhoG3748 changedG3337 the truthG225 of GodG2316 intoG1722 a lieG5579, andG2532 worshippedG4573 andG2532 servedG3000 the creatureG2937 more thanG3844 the CreatorG2936, whoG3739 isG2076 blessedG2128 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {more: or, rather}
ForG1223 thisG5124 cause GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 untoG1519 vileG819 affectionsG3806: forG1063 evenG5037 theirG846 womenG2338 did changeG3337 the naturalG5446 useG5540 intoG1519 that which is againstG3844 natureG5449:
AndG5037 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the menG730, leavingG863 the naturalG5446 useG5540 of the womanG2338, burnedG1572 inG1722 theirG846 lustG3715 one toward anotherG1519+G240; menG730 withG1722 menG730 workingG2716 that which is unseemlyG808, andG2532 receivingG618 inG1722 themselvesG1438 that recompenceG489 of theirG846 errorG4106 whichG3739 was meetG1163.
AndG2532 even asG2531 they didG1381 notG3756 likeG1381 to retainG2192 GodG2316 inG1722 their knowledgeG1922, GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 overG3860 toG1519 a reprobateG96 mindG3563, to doG4160 those things which areG2520 notG3361 convenientG2520; {to retain: or, to acknowledge} {a reprobate…: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind}
Being filled withG4137 allG3956 unrighteousnessG93, fornicationG4202, wickednessG4189, covetousnessG4124, maliciousnessG2549; fullG3324 of envyG5355, murderG5408, debateG2054, deceitG1388, malignityG2550; whisperersG5588,
BackbitersG2637, haters of GodG2319, despitefulG5197, proudG5244, boastersG213, inventorsG2182 of evil thingsG2556, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118,
Without understandingG801, covenantbreakersG802, without natural affectionG794, implacableG786, unmercifulG415: {without natural…: or unsociable}
WhoG3748 knowingG1921 the judgmentG1345 of GodG2316, thatG3754 they which commitG4238 such thingsG5108 areG1526 worthyG514 of deathG2288, notG3756 onlyG3440 doG4160 the sameG846, butG235+G2532 have pleasureG4909 in them that doG4238 them. {have…: or, consent with}
ThereforeG1352 thou artG1488 inexcusableG379, OG5599 manG444, whosoeverG3956 thou art that judgestG2919: forG1063 whereinG1722+G3739 thou judgestG2919 anotherG2087, thou condemnestG2632 thyselfG4572; forG1063 thou that judgestG2919 doestG4238 the same thingsG846.
ButG1161 we are sureG1492 thatG3754 the judgmentG2917 of GodG2316 isG2076 accordingG2596 to truthG225 againstG1909 them which commitG4238 such thingsG5108.
AndG1161 thinkest thouG3049 thisG5124, OG5599 manG444, that judgestG2919 them which doG4238 such thingsG5108, andG2532 doestG4160 the sameG846, thatG3754 thouG4771 shalt escapeG1628 the judgmentG2917 of GodG2316?
OrG2228 despisest thouG2706 the richesG4149 of hisG846 goodnessG5544 andG2532 forbearanceG463 andG2532 longsufferingG3115; not knowingG50 thatG3754 the goodnessG5543 of GodG2316 leadethG71 theeG4571 toG1519 repentanceG3341?
ButG1161 afterG2596 thyG4675 hardnessG4643 andG2532 impenitentG279 heartG2588 treasurest upG2343 unto thyselfG4572 wrathG3709 againstG1722 the dayG2250 of wrathG3709 andG2532 revelationG602 of the righteous judgmentG1341 of GodG2316;
WhoG3739 will renderG591 to every manG1538 accordingG2596 to hisG846 deedsG2041:
To them who byG3303+G2596 patient continuanceG5281 in wellG18 doingG2041 seekG2212 for gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 immortalityG861, eternalG166 lifeG2222:
ButG1161 unto them that are contentiousG1537+G2052, andG2532 do not obeyG544+G3303 the truthG225, butG1161 obeyG3982 unrighteousnessG93, indignationG2372 andG2532 wrathG3709,
TribulationG2347 andG2532 anguishG4730, uponG1909 everyG3956 soulG5590 of manG444 that doethG2716 evilG2556, of the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 of the GentileG1672; {Gentile: Gr. Greek}
ButG1161+G2532 gloryG1391, honourG5092, andG2532 peaceG1515, to every manG3956 that workethG2038 goodG18, to the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 to the GentileG1672: {Gentile: Gr. Greek}
ForG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 respect of personsG4382 withG3844 GodG2316.
ForG1063 as many asG3745 have sinnedG264 without lawG460 shallG622 alsoG2532 perishG622 without lawG460: andG2532 as many asG3745 have sinnedG264 inG1722 the lawG3551 shall be judgedG2919 byG1223 the lawG3551;
(ForG1063 notG3756 the hearersG202 of the lawG3551 are justG1342 beforeG3844 GodG2316, butG235 the doersG4163 of the lawG3551 shall be justifiedG1344.
ForG1063 whenG3752 the GentilesG1484, whichG3588 haveG2192 notG3361 the lawG3551, doG4160 by natureG5449 the thingsG3588 contained in the lawG3551, theseG3778, havingG2192 notG3361 the lawG3551, areG1526 a lawG3551 unto themselvesG1438:
WhichG3748 shewG1731 the workG2041 of the lawG3551 writtenG1123 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588, theirG846 conscienceG4893 also bearing witnessG4828, andG2532 their thoughtsG3053 the mean while accusingG2723 orG2228 elseG2532 excusingG626 one anotherG3342+G240;) {their conscience…: or, the conscience witnessing with them} {the mean…: or, between themselves}
InG1722 the dayG2250 whenG3753 GodG2316 shall judgeG2919 the secretsG2927 of menG444 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 accordingG2596 to myG3450 gospelG2098.
BeholdG2396, thouG4771 art calledG2028 a JewG2453, andG2532 restestG1879 in the lawG3551, andG2532 makest thy boastG2744 ofG1722 GodG2316,
AndG2532 knowestG1097 his willG2307, andG2532 approvestG1381 the things that are more excellentG1308, being instructedG2727 out ofG1537 the lawG3551; {approvest…: or, triest the things that differ}
AndG5037 art confidentG3982 that thou thyselfG4572 artG1511 a guideG3595 of the blindG5185, a lightG5457 of them which are inG1722 darknessG4655,
An instructorG3810 of the foolishG878, a teacherG1320 of babesG3516, which hastG2192 the formG3446 of knowledgeG1108 andG2532 of the truthG225 inG1722 the lawG3551.
Thou thereforeG3767 whichG3588 teachestG1321 anotherG2087, teachest thouG1321 notG3756 thyselfG4572? thou that preachestG2784 a man shouldG2813 notG3361 stealG2813, dost thou stealG2813?
Thou that sayestG3004 a man shouldG3431 notG3361 commit adulteryG3431, dost thou commit adulteryG3431? thou that abhorrestG948 idolsG1497, dost thou commit sacrilegeG2416?
ThouG3739 that makest thy boastG2744 ofG1722 the lawG3551, throughG1223 breakingG3847 the lawG3551 dishonourest thouG818 GodG2316?
ForG1063 the nameG3686 of GodG2316 is blasphemedG987 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 throughG1223 youG5209, asG2531 it is writtenG1125.
ForG1063 circumcisionG4061 verilyG3303 profitethG5623, ifG1437 thou keepG4238 the lawG3551: butG1161 ifG1437 thou beG5600 a breakerG3848 of the lawG3551, thyG4675 circumcisionG4061 is madeG1096 uncircumcisionG203.
ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 the uncircumcisionG203 keepG5442 the righteousnessG1345 of the lawG3551, shallG3049 notG3780 hisG846 uncircumcisionG203 be countedG3049 forG1519 circumcisionG4061?
AndG2532 shall notG2919 uncircumcisionG203 which is byG1537 natureG5449, if it fulfilG5055 the lawG3551, judgeG2919 theeG4571, who byG1223 the letterG1121 andG2532 circumcisionG4061 dost transgressG3848 the lawG3551?
ForG1063 he isG2076 notG3756 a JewG2453, which is one outwardlyG1722+G5318; neitherG3761 is that circumcisionG4061, which is outwardG1722+G5318 inG1722 the fleshG4561:
ButG235 he is a JewG2453, which is one inwardlyG1722+G2927; andG2532 circumcisionG4061 is that of the heartG2588, inG1722 the spiritG4151, and notG3756 in the letterG1121; whoseG3739 praiseG1868 is notG3756 ofG1537 menG444, butG235 ofG1537 GodG2316.
WhatG5101 advantageG4053 thenG3767 hath the JewG2453? orG2228 whatG5101 profitG5622 is there of circumcisionG4061?
MuchG4183 everyG2596+G3956 wayG5158: chieflyG4412, becauseG3303+G1063 thatG3754 unto them were committedG4100 the oraclesG3051 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 whatG5101 ifG1487 someG5100 did not believeG569+G3361? shallG2673 theirG846 unbeliefG570 makeG2673 the faithG4102 of GodG2316 without effectG2673?
God forbidG3361+G1096: yeaG1161, letG1096 GodG2316 beG1096 trueG227, butG1161 everyG3956 manG444 a liarG5583; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, ThatG3704 thou mightestG302 be justifiedG1344 inG1722 thyG4675 sayingsG3056, andG2532 mightest overcomeG3528 whenG1722 thouG4571 art judgedG2919.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ourG2257 unrighteousnessG93 commendG4921 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316, whatG5101 shall we sayG2046+G3361? Is GodG2316 unrighteousG94 who takethG2018 vengeanceG3709? (I speakG3004 asG2596 a manG444)
God forbidG3361+G1096: for thenG1893 howG4459 shallG2919 GodG2316 judgeG2919 the worldG2889?
ForG1063 ifG1487 the truthG225 of GodG2316 hath more aboundedG4052 throughG1722 myG1699 lieG5582 untoG1519 hisG846 gloryG1391; whyG5101 yetG2089 amG2919 I alsoG2504 judgedG2919 asG5613 a sinnerG268?
AndG2532 notG3361 rather, (asG2531 we be slanderously reportedG987, andG2532 asG2531 someG5100 affirmG5346 that weG2248 sayG3004+G3754,) Let us doG4160 evilG2556, thatG2443 goodG18 may comeG2064? whoseG3739 damnationG2917 isG2076 justG1738.
WhatG5101 thenG3767? are we betterG4284 than they? NoG3756, in no wiseG3843: forG1063 we have before provedG4256 bothG5037 JewsG2453 andG2532 GentilesG1672, that they areG1511 allG3956 underG5259 sinG266; {proved: Gr. charged}
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3756 righteousG1342, no, notG3761 oneG1520:
There isG2076 noneG3756 that understandethG4920, there isG2076 noneG3756 that seeketh afterG1567 GodG2316.
They areG1578 allG3956 gone out of the wayG1578, they areG889 togetherG260 become unprofitableG889; there isG2076 noneG3756 that doethG4160 goodG5544, no, notG3756 oneG2076+G2193+G1520.
TheirG846 throatG2995 is an openG455 sepulchreG5028; with theirG846 tonguesG1100 they have used deceitG1387; the poisonG2447 of aspsG785 is underG5259 theirG846 lipsG5491:
WhoseG3739 mouthG4750 is fullG1073 of cursingG685 andG2532 bitternessG4088:
TheirG846 feetG4228 are swiftG3691 to shedG1632 bloodG129:
DestructionG4938 andG2532 miseryG5004 are inG1722 theirG846 waysG3598:
AndG2532 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515 haveG1097 they notG3756 knownG1097:
There isG2076 noG3756 fearG5401 of GodG2316 beforeG561 theirG846 eyesG3788.
NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 what things soeverG3745 the lawG3551 saithG3004, it saithG2980 to them who are underG1722 the lawG3551: thatG2443 everyG3956 mouthG4750 may be stoppedG5420, andG2532 allG3956 the worldG2889 may becomeG1096 guiltyG5267 before GodG2316. {guilty…: or, subject to the judgment of God}
ThereforeG1360 byG1537 the deedsG2041 of the lawG3551 there shallG1344 noG3956+G3756 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344 in hisG846 sightG1799: forG1063 byG1223 the lawG3551 is the knowledgeG1922 of sinG266.
ButG1161 nowG3570 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 is manifestedG5319, being witnessedG3140 byG5259 the lawG3551 andG2532 the prophetsG4396;
EvenG1161 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 which is byG1223 faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 untoG1519 allG3956 andG2532 uponG1909 allG3956 them that believeG4100: forG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 differenceG1293:
ForG1063 allG3956 have sinnedG264, andG2532 come shortG5302 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316;
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhomG3739 GodG2316 hath set forthG4388 to be a propitiationG2435 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, toG1519 declareG1732 hisG846 righteousnessG1343 forG1223 the remissionG3929 of sinsG265 that are pastG4266, throughG1722 the forbearanceG463 of GodG2316; {set forth: or, foreordained} {remission: or, passing over}
ToG4314 declareG1732, I say, atG1722 thisG3568 timeG2540 hisG846 righteousnessG1343: thatG1519 he might beG1511 justG1342, andG2532 the justifierG1344 of himG846 which believethG4102 inG1537 JesusG2424.
WhereG4226 is boastingG2746 thenG3767? It is excludedG1576. ByG1223 whatG4169 lawG3551? of worksG2041? NayG3780: butG235 byG1223 the lawG3551 of faithG4102.
ThereforeG3767 we concludeG3049 that a manG444 is justifiedG1344 by faithG4102 withoutG5565 the deedsG2041 of the lawG3551.
Is heG2228 the GodG2316 of the JewsG2453 onlyG3440? is he notG3780 alsoG1161+G2532 of the GentilesG1484? YesG3483, of the GentilesG1484 alsoG2532:
SeeingG1897 it is oneG1520 GodG2316, whichG3739 shall justifyG1344 the circumcisionG4061 byG1537 faithG4102, andG2532 uncircumcisionG203 throughG1223 faithG4102.
Do weG2673 thenG3767 make voidG2673 the lawG3551 throughG1223 faithG4102? God forbidG3361+G1096: yeaG235, we establishG2476 the lawG3551.
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.
ThereforeG3767 being justifiedG1344 byG1537 faithG4102, we haveG2192 peaceG1515 withG4314 GodG2316 throughG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
ByG1223 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we haveG2192 accessG4318 by faithG4102 intoG1519 thisG5026 graceG5485 whereinG1722+G3739 we standG2476, andG2532 rejoiceG2744 inG1909 hopeG1680 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 so, butG235 we gloryG2744 inG1722 tribulationsG2347 alsoG2532: knowingG1492 thatG3754 tribulationG2347 workethG2716 patienceG5281;
AndG1161 patienceG5281, experienceG1382; andG1161 experienceG1382, hopeG1680:
AndG1161 hopeG1680 makethG2617 notG3756 ashamedG2617; becauseG3754 the loveG26 of GodG2316 is shed abroadG1632 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588 byG1223 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 whichG3588 is givenG1325 unto usG2254.
ForG1063 when weG2257 wereG5607 yetG2089 without strengthG772, in dueG2596 timeG2540 ChristG5547 diedG599 forG5228 the ungodlyG765. {in due time: or, according to the time}
ForG1063 scarcelyG3433 forG5228 a righteous manG1342 willG599 oneG5100 dieG599: yetG1063 peradventureG5029 forG5228 a good manG18 someG5100 wouldG5111 evenG2532 dareG5111 to dieG599.
ButG1161 GodG2316 commendethG4921 hisG1438 loveG26 towardG1519 usG2248, in thatG3754, while weG2257 wereG5607 yetG2089 sinnersG268, ChristG5547 diedG599 forG5228 usG2257.
MuchG4183 moreG3123 thenG3767, beingG1344 nowG3568 justifiedG1344 byG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, we shall be savedG4982 fromG575 wrathG3709 throughG1223 himG846.
ForG1063 ifG1487, when we wereG5607 enemiesG2190, we were reconciledG2644 to GodG2316 byG1223 the deathG2288 of hisG846 SonG5207, muchG4183 moreG3123, being reconciledG2644, we shall be savedG4982 byG1722 hisG846 lifeG2222.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 so, butG235 we alsoG2532 joyG2744 inG1722 GodG2316 throughG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 we haveG2983 nowG3568 receivedG2983 the atonementG2643. {atonement: or, reconciliation}
WhereforeG1223+G5124, asG5618 byG1223 oneG1520 manG444 sinG266 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 deathG2288 byG1223 sinG266; andG2532 soG3779 deathG2288 passedG1330 uponG1519 allG3956 menG444, forG1909 thatG3739 allG3956 have sinnedG264: {for that: or, in whom}
(ForG1063 untilG891 the lawG3551 sinG266 wasG2258 inG1722 the worldG2889: butG1161 sinG266 isG1677 notG3756 imputedG1677 when there isG5607 noG3361 lawG3551.
NeverthelessG235 deathG2288 reignedG936 fromG575 AdamG76 toG3360 MosesG3475, evenG2532 overG1909 them that hadG264 notG3361 sinnedG264 afterG1909 the similitudeG3667 of Adam'sG76 transgressionG3847, whoG3739 isG2076 the figureG5179 of him that was to comeG3195.
ButG235 notG3756 asG5613 the offenceG3900, soG3779 alsoG2532 is the free giftG5486. ForG1063 ifG1487 through the offenceG3900 of oneG1520 manyG4183 be deadG599, muchG4183 moreG3123 the graceG5485 of GodG2316, andG2532 the giftG1431 byG1722 graceG5485, which isG3588 by oneG1520 manG444, JesusG2424 ChristG5547, hath aboundedG4052 untoG1519 manyG4183.
AndG2532 notG3756 asG5613 it was byG1223 oneG1520 that sinnedG264, so is the giftG1434: forG1063+G3303 the judgmentG2917 was byG1537 oneG1520 toG1519 condemnationG2631, butG1161 the free giftG5486 is ofG1537 manyG4183 offencesG3900 untoG1519 justificationG1345.
ForG1063 ifG1487 by one man'sG1520 offenceG3900 deathG2288 reignedG936 byG1223 oneG1520; muchG4183 moreG3123 they which receiveG2983 abundanceG4050 of graceG5485 andG2532 of the giftG1431 of righteousnessG1343 shall reignG936 inG1722 lifeG2222 byG1223 oneG1520, JesusG2424 ChristG5547.) {by one man's…: or, by one offence}
ThereforeG686+G3767 asG5613 byG1223 the offenceG3900 of oneG1520 judgment came uponG1519 allG3956 menG444 toG1519 condemnationG2631; evenG2532 soG3779 byG1223 the righteousnessG1345 of oneG1520 the free gift came uponG1519 allG3956 menG444 untoG1519 justificationG1347 of lifeG2222. {by the offence…: or, by one offence} {by the righteousness…: or, by one righteousness}
ForG1063 asG5618 byG1223 oneG1520 man'sG444 disobedienceG3876 manyG4183 were madeG2525 sinnersG268, soG3779+G2532 byG1223 the obedienceG5218 of oneG1520 shallG2525 manyG4183 be madeG2525 righteousG1342.
MoreoverG1161 the lawG3551 enteredG3922, thatG2443 the offenceG3900 might aboundG4121. ButG1161 whereG3757 sinG266 aboundedG4121, graceG5485 did much more aboundG5248:
ThatG2443 asG5618 sinG266 hath reignedG936 untoG1722 deathG2288, evenG2532 soG3779 mightG936 graceG5485 reignG936 throughG1223 righteousnessG1343 untoG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Shall we continueG1961 in sinG266, thatG2443 graceG5485 may aboundG4121?
God forbidG3361+G1096. HowG4459 shall we, thatG3748 are deadG599 to sinG266, liveG2198 any longerG2089 thereinG1722+G846?
Know ye notG50, that soG3754 many of usG3745 as were baptizedG907 intoG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 were baptizedG907 intoG1519 hisG846 deathG2288? {were: or, are} {were: or, are}
ThereforeG3767 we are buried withG4916 himG846 byG1223 baptismG908 intoG1519 deathG2288: thatG2443 like asG5618 ChristG5547 was raised upG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 byG1223 the gloryG1391 of the FatherG3962, even soG3779 weG2249 alsoG2532 should walkG4043 inG1722 newnessG2538 of lifeG2222.
ForG1063 ifG1487 we have beenG1096 planted togetherG4854 in the likenessG3667 of hisG846 deathG2288, we shall beG2071 alsoG235+G2532 in the likeness of his resurrectionG386:
KnowingG1097 thisG5124, thatG3754 ourG2257 oldG3820 manG444 is crucified withG4957 him, thatG2443 the bodyG4983 of sinG266 might be destroyedG2673, that henceforthG3371 weG2248 shouldG1398 notG3371 serveG1398 sinG266.
ForG1063 he that is deadG599 is freedG1344 fromG575 sinG266. {freed: Gr. justified}
NowG1161 ifG1487 we be deadG599 withG4862 ChristG5547, we believeG4100 thatG3754 we shallG4800 alsoG2532 liveG4800 with himG846:
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 ChristG5547 being raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 diethG599 no moreG3765; deathG2288 hathG2961 no moreG3765 dominion overG2961 himG846.
ForG3739+G1063 in that he diedG599, he diedG599 unto sinG266 onceG2178: butG1161 in thatG3739 he livethG2198, he livethG2198 unto GodG2316.
LikewiseG3779 reckonG3049 yeG5210 alsoG2532 yourselvesG1438 to beG1511 deadG3498 indeedG3303 unto sinG266, butG1161 aliveG2198 unto GodG2316 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
LetG936 notG3361 sinG266 thereforeG3767 reignG936 inG1722 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodyG4983, thatG1519 ye should obeyG5219 itG846 inG1722 the lustsG1939 thereofG846.
NeitherG3366 yield yeG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of unrighteousnessG93 unto sinG266: butG235 yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 unto GodG2316, asG5613 those that are aliveG2198 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 unto GodG2316. {instruments: Gr. arms, or, weapons}
ForG1063 sinG266 shallG2961 notG3756 have dominion overG2961 youG5216: forG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485.
WhatG5101 thenG3767? shall we sinG264, becauseG3754 we areG2070 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485? God forbidG3361+G1096.
Know yeG1492 notG3756, thatG3754 to whomG3739 ye yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 servantsG1401 toG1519 obeyG5218, his servantsG1401 ye areG2075 to whomG3739 ye obeyG5219; whetherG2273 of sinG266 untoG1519 deathG2288, orG2228 of obedienceG5218 untoG1519 righteousnessG1343?
ButG1161 GodG2316 be thankedG5485, thatG3754 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, butG1161 ye have obeyedG5219 fromG1537 the heartG2588 that formG5179 of doctrineG1322 whichG1519+G3739 was delivered youG3860. {which…: Gr. whereto ye were delivered}
BeingG1659 thenG1161 made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, ye became the servantsG1402 of righteousnessG1343.
I speakG3004 after the manner of menG442 becauseG1223 of the infirmityG769 of yourG5216 fleshG4561: forG1063 asG5618 ye have yieldedG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to uncleannessG167 andG2532 to iniquityG458 untoG1519 iniquityG458; even soG3779 nowG3568 yieldG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to righteousnessG1343 untoG1519 holinessG38.
ForG1063 whenG3753 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, ye wereG2258 freeG1658 from righteousnessG1343. {from…: Gr. to righteousness}
WhatG5101+G3767 fruitG2590 had yeG2192 thenG5119 inG1909 those things whereofG3739 ye areG1870 nowG3568 ashamedG1870? forG1063 the endG5056 of those thingsG1565 is deathG2288.
ButG1161 nowG3570 being made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, andG1161 become servantsG1402 to GodG2316, ye haveG2192 yourG5216 fruitG2590 untoG1519 holinessG38, andG1161 the endG5056 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 the wagesG3800 of sinG266 is deathG2288; butG1161 the giftG5486 of GodG2316 is eternalG166 lifeG2222 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
Know ye notG50, brethrenG80, (forG1063 I speakG2980 to them that knowG1097 the lawG3551,) how thatG3754 the lawG3551 hath dominion overG2961 a manG444 as long asG1909+G3745+G5550 he livethG2198?
ForG1063 the womanG1135 which hath an husbandG5220 is boundG1210 by the lawG3551 to her husbandG435 so long as he livethG2198; butG1161 ifG1437 the husbandG435 be deadG599, she is loosedG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551 of her husbandG435.
So thenG686+G3767 ifG1437, while her husbandG435 livethG2198, she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435, she shall be calledG5537 an adulteressG3428: butG1161 ifG1437 her husbandG435 be deadG599, she isG2076 freeG1658 fromG575 that lawG3551; so that sheG846 isG1511 noG3361 adulteressG3428, though she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 brethrenG80, yeG5210 alsoG2532 are become deadG2289 to the lawG3551 byG1223 the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547; thatG1519 yeG5209 should be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087, even to him who is raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, thatG2443 we should bring forth fruitG2592 unto GodG2316.
ForG1063 whenG3753 we wereG2258 inG1722 the fleshG4561, the motionsG3804 of sinsG266, whichG3588 were byG1223 the lawG3551, did workG1754 inG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196 to bringG1519 forth fruitG2592 unto deathG2288. {motions: Gr. passions}
ButG1161 nowG3570 we are deliveredG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551, that being deadG599 whereinG1722+G3739 we were heldG2722; thatG5620 weG2248 should serveG1398 inG1722 newnessG2538 of spiritG4151, andG2532 notG3756 in the oldnessG3821 of the letterG1121. {that being…: or, being dead to that}
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Is the lawG3551 sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096. NayG235, I hadG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 sinG266, butG1508 byG1223 the lawG3551: forG1063+G5037 I hadG1492 notG3756 knownG1492 lustG1939, exceptG1508 the lawG3551 had saidG3004, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937. {lust: or, concupiscence}
ButG1161 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, wroughtG2716 inG1722 meG1698 all manner ofG3956 concupiscenceG1939. ForG1063 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 sinG266 was deadG3498.
ForG1161 IG1473 was aliveG2198 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 onceG4218: butG1161 when the commandmentG1785 cameG2064, sinG266 revivedG326, andG1161 IG1473 diedG599.
AndG2532 the commandmentG1785, whichG3588 was ordained toG1519 lifeG2222, IG3427 foundG2147+G3778 to be untoG1519 deathG2288.
ForG1063 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, deceivedG1818 meG3165, andG2532 byG1223 itG846 slewG615 me.
WhereforeG5620+G3303 the lawG3551 is holyG40, andG2532 the commandmentG1785 holyG40, andG2532 justG1342, andG2532 goodG18.
Was thenG3767 that which is goodG18 madeG1096 deathG2288 unto meG1698? God forbidG3361+G1096. ButG235 sinG266, thatG2443 it might appearG5316 sinG266, workingG2716 deathG2288 in meG3427 byG1223 that which is goodG18; thatG2443 sinG266 byG1223 the commandmentG1785 might becomeG1096 exceedingG2596+G5236 sinfulG268.
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the lawG3551 isG2076 spiritualG4152: butG1161 IG1473 amG1510 carnalG4559, soldG4097 underG5259 sinG266.
ForG1063 that whichG3739 I doG2716 I allowG1097 notG3756: forG1063 whatG3739 I wouldG2309, thatG5124 do IG4238 notG3756; butG235 whatG3739 I hateG3404, thatG5124 do IG4160. {allow: Gr. know}
IfG1487 thenG1161 I doG4160 thatG5124 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, I consentG4852 unto the lawG3551 thatG3754 it is goodG2570.
NowG3570 thenG1161 it is no moreG3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
ForG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 inG1722 meG1698 (that isG5123, inG1722 myG3450 fleshG4561,) dwellethG3611 noG3756 good thingG18: forG1063 to willG2309 is presentG3873 with meG3427; butG1161 how to performG2716 that which is goodG2570 I findG2147 notG3756.
ForG1063+G3739 the goodG18 that I wouldG2309 I doG4160 notG3756: butG235 the evilG2556 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, thatG5124 I doG4238.
NowG1161 ifG1487+G3739 I doG4160 thatG5124 IG1473 wouldG2309 notG3756, it is no moreG2089+G3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
I findG2147 thenG686 a lawG3551, thatG3754, when IG1698 wouldG2309 doG4160 goodG2570, evilG2556 is presentG3873 with meG1698.
ForG1063 I delightG4913 in the lawG3551 of GodG2316 afterG2596 the inwardG2080 manG444:
ButG1161 I seeG991 anotherG2087 lawG3551 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196, warring againstG497 the lawG3551 of myG3450 mindG3563, andG2532 bringingG163 meG3165 into captivityG163 to the lawG3551 of sinG266 whichG3588 isG5607 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196.
O wretchedG5005 manG444 that I amG1473! whoG5101 shall deliverG4506 meG3165 fromG1537 the bodyG4983 of thisG5127 deathG2288? {the body…: or, this body of death}
I thankG2168 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962. So thenG686+G3767 with the mindG3563 IG1473 myselfG846 serveG3303+G1398 the lawG3551 of GodG2316; butG1161 with the fleshG4561 the lawG3551 of sinG266.
There is thereforeG686 nowG3568 noG3762 condemnationG2631 to them which are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 the lawG3551 of the SpiritG4151 of lifeG2222 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 hath madeG1659 meG3165 freeG1659 fromG575 the lawG3551 of sinG266 andG2532 deathG2288.
ForG1063 what the lawG3551 could not doG102, inG1722 thatG3739 it was weakG770 throughG1223 the fleshG4561, GodG2316 sendingG3992 his ownG1438 SonG5207 inG1722 the likenessG3667 of sinfulG266 fleshG4561, andG2532 forG4012 sinG266, condemnedG2632 sinG266 inG1722 the fleshG4561: {for sin: or, by a sacrifice for sin}
ThatG2443 the righteousnessG1345 of the lawG3551 might be fulfilledG4137 inG1722 usG2254, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 they that areG5607 afterG2596 the fleshG4561 do mindG5426 the thingsG3588 of the fleshG4561; butG1161 they that are afterG2596 the SpiritG4151 the thingsG3588 of the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 to beG5427 carnallyG4561 mindedG5427 is deathG2288; butG1161 to beG5427 spirituallyG4151 mindedG5427 is lifeG2222 andG2532 peaceG1515. {to be carnally…: Gr. the minding of the flesh} {to be spiritually…: Gr. the minding of the Spirit}
BecauseG1360 the carnalG4561 mindG5427 is enmityG2189 againstG1519 GodG2316: forG1063 it isG5293 notG3756 subjectG5293 to the lawG3551 of GodG2316, neitherG3761 indeedG1063 can beG1410. {the carnal…: Gr. the minding of the flesh}
So thenG1161 they that areG5607 inG1722 the fleshG4561 cannotG3756+G1410 pleaseG700 GodG2316.
ButG1161 yeG5210 areG2075 notG3756 inG1722 the fleshG4561, butG235 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, if so beG1512 that the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 dwellG3611 inG1722 youG5213. NowG1161 if any manG1536 haveG2192 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547, heG3778 isG2076 noneG3756 of hisG846.
AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 be inG1722 youG5213, the bodyG4983+G3303 is deadG3498 becauseG1223 of sinG266; butG1161 the SpiritG4151 is lifeG2222 becauseG1223 of righteousnessG1343.
ButG1161 ifG1487 the SpiritG4151 of him that raised upG1453 JesusG2424 fromG1537 the deadG3498 dwellG3611 inG1722 youG5213, he that raised upG1453 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498 shallG2227 alsoG2532 quickenG2227 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodiesG4983 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 that dwellethG1774 inG1722 youG5213. {by: or, because of}
ThereforeG686+G3767, brethrenG80, we areG2070 debtorsG3781, notG3756 to the fleshG4561, to liveG2198 afterG2596 the fleshG4561.
ForG1063 ifG1487 ye liveG2198 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, ye shallG3195 dieG599: butG1161 ifG1487 yeG2289 through the SpiritG4151 do mortifyG2289 the deedsG4234 of the bodyG4983, ye shall liveG2198.
ForG1063 as many asG3745 are ledG71 by the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, theyG3778 areG1526 the sonsG5207 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of bondageG1397 againG3825 toG1519 fearG5401; butG235 ye have receivedG2983 the SpiritG4151 of adoptionG5206, wherebyG1722+G3739 we cryG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962.
The SpiritG4151 itselfG846 beareth witnessG4828 with ourG2257 spiritG4151, thatG3754 we areG2070 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316:
AndG1161 ifG1487 childrenG5043, thenG2532 heirsG2818; heirsG2818 of GodG3303+G2316, andG1161 joint-heirsG4789 with ChristG5547; if so beG1512 that we suffer withG4841 him, thatG2443 we may beG4888 alsoG2532 glorified togetherG4888.
ForG1063 I reckonG3049 thatG3754 the sufferingsG3804 of this presentG3568 timeG2540 are notG3756 worthyG514 to be compared withG4314 the gloryG1391 which shallG3195 be revealedG601 inG1519 usG2248.
ForG1063 the earnest expectationG603 of the creatureG2937 waitethG553 for the manifestationG602 of the sonsG5207 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 the creatureG2937 was made subjectG5293 to vanityG3153, notG3756 willinglyG1635, butG235 by reasonG1223 of him who hath subjectedG5293 the same inG1909 hopeG1680,
BecauseG3754 the creatureG2937 itselfG846 alsoG2532 shall be deliveredG1659 fromG575 the bondageG1397 of corruptionG5356 intoG1519 the gloriousG1391 libertyG1657 of the childrenG5043 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the wholeG3956 creationG2937 groanethG4959 andG2532 travaileth in pain togetherG4944 untilG891 nowG3568. {the…: or, every creature}
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 they, butG235 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532, which haveG2192 the firstfruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 weG2249 ourselvesG846 groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, waitingG553 for the adoptionG5206, to wit, the redemptionG629 of ourG2257 bodyG4983.
ForG1063 we are savedG4982 by hopeG1680: butG1161 hopeG1680 that is seenG991 isG2076 notG3756 hopeG1680: forG1063 whatG3739 a manG5100 seethG991, whyG5101 doth heG1679 yetG2532 hope forG1679?
ButG1161 ifG1487 we hopeG1679 for thatG3739 we seeG991 notG3756, then do weG553 withG1223 patienceG5281 wait forG553 it.
LikewiseG5615 the SpiritG4151 alsoG2532 helpethG4878 ourG2257 infirmitiesG769: forG1063 we knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 we should pray forG4336 asG2526 we oughtG1163: butG235 the SpiritG4151 itselfG846 maketh intercessionG5241 forG5228 usG2257 with groaningsG4726 which cannot be utteredG215.
AndG1161 he that searchethG2045 the heartsG2588 knowethG1492 whatG5101 is the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151, becauseG3754 he maketh intercessionG1793 forG5228 the saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316. {because: or, that}
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.
ForG3754 whomG3739 he did foreknowG4267, heG4309 alsoG2532 did predestinateG4309 to be conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80.
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.
WhatG5101 shall weG2046 thenG3767 sayG2046 toG4314 these thingsG5023? IfG1487 GodG2316 be forG5228 usG2257, whoG5101 can be againstG2596 usG2257?
He thatG3739+G1065 sparedG5339 notG3756 his ownG2398 SonG5207, butG235 deliveredG3860 himG846 upG3860 forG5228 usG2257 allG3956, howG4459 shall heG5483 notG3780 withG4862 himG846 alsoG2532 freely giveG5483 usG2254 all thingsG3956?
WhoG5101 shall lay any thingG1458 to the chargeG2596 of God'sG2316 electG1588? It is GodG2316 that justifiethG1344.
WhoG5101 is he that condemnethG2632? It is ChristG5547 that diedG599, yeaG1161 ratherG3123+G2532, that is risen againG1453, whoG3739 isG2076 evenG2532 atG1722 the right handG1188 of GodG2316, whoG3739 alsoG2532 maketh intercessionG1793 forG5228 usG2257.
WhoG5101 shall separateG5563 usG2248 fromG575 the loveG26 of ChristG5547? shall tribulationG2347, orG2228 distressG4730, orG2228 persecutionG1375, orG2228 famineG3042, orG2228 nakednessG1132, orG2228 perilG2794, orG2228 swordG3162?
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, For thyG4675 sakeG1752 we are killedG2289 allG3650 the day longG2250; we are accountedG3049 asG5613 sheepG4263 for the slaughterG4967.
NayG235, inG1722 allG3956 these thingsG5125 we are more than conquerorsG5245 throughG1223 him that lovedG25 usG2248.
ForG1063 I am persuadedG3982, thatG3754 neitherG3777 deathG2288, norG3777 lifeG2222, norG3777 angelsG32, norG3777 principalitiesG746, norG3777 powersG1411, norG3777 things presentG1764, norG3777 things to comeG3195,
NorG3777 heightG5313, norG3777 depthG899, norG3777 anyG5100 otherG2087 creatureG2937, shall be ableG1410 to separateG5563 usG2248 fromG575 the loveG26 of GodG2316, which is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962.
I sayG3004 the truthG225 inG1722 ChristG5547, I lieG5574 notG3756, myG3450 conscienceG4893 also bearingG4828 meG3427 witnessG4828 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
ThatG3754 IG3427 haveG2076 greatG3173 heavinessG3077 andG2532 continualG88 sorrow inG3601 myG3450 heartG2588.
ForG1063 IG1473 could wishG2172 that myselfG846 wereG1511 accursedG331 fromG575 ChristG5547 forG5228 myG3450 brethrenG80, myG3450 kinsmenG4773 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561: {accursed: or, separated}
WhoG3748 areG1526 IsraelitesG2475; to whomG3739 pertaineth the adoptionG5206, andG2532 the gloryG1391, andG2532 the covenantsG1242, andG2532 the giving of the lawG3548, andG2532 the serviceG2999 of God, andG2532 the promisesG1860; {covenants: or, testaments}
WhoseG3739 are the fathersG3962, andG2532 ofG1537 whomG3739 as concerningG2596 the fleshG4561 ChristG5547 came, whoG5607 is overG1909 allG3956, GodG2316 blessedG2128 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281.
NotG3756 asG3634 thoughG1161+G3754 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 hath taken none effectG1601. ForG1063 they are notG3756 allG3956+G1537 IsraelG2474, whichG3588+G3778 are of IsraelG2474:
NeitherG3761, becauseG3754 they areG1526 the seedG4690 of AbrahamG11, are they allG3956 childrenG5043: butG235, InG1722 IsaacG2464 shallG2564 thyG4671 seedG4690 be calledG2564.
That isG5123, They which are the childrenG5043 of the fleshG4561, theseG5023 are notG3756 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316: butG235 the childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are countedG3049 forG1519 the seedG4690.
ForG1063 thisG3778 is the wordG3056 of promiseG1860, AtG2596 thisG5126 timeG2540 will I comeG2064, andG2532 SarahG4564 shall haveG2071 a sonG5207.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 this; butG235 when RebeccaG4479 alsoG2532 had conceivedG2845 byG1537 oneG1520+G2192, even by ourG2257 fatherG3962 IsaacG2464;
(ForG1063 the children beingG1080 not yetG3380 bornG1080, neitherG3366 having doneG4238 anyG5100 goodG18 orG2228 evilG2556, thatG2443 the purposeG4286 of GodG2316 accordingG2596 to electionG1589 might standG3306, notG3756 ofG1537 worksG2041, butG235 ofG1537 him that callethG2564;)
It was saidG4483 unto herG846, The elderG3187 shall serveG1398 the youngerG1640. {elder: or, greater} {elder: or, greater} {younger: or, lesser}
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125, JacobG2384 have I lovedG25, butG1161 EsauG2269 have I hatedG3404.
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767+G3361? Is there unrighteousnessG93 withG3844 GodG2316? God forbidG3361+G1096.
ForG1063 he saithG3004 to MosesG3475, I will have mercy onG1653 whomG3739+G302 I will have mercyG1653, andG2532 I will have compassionG3627 on whomG3739+G302 I will have compassionG3627.
SoG686 thenG3767 it is notG3756 of him that willethG2309, norG3761 of him that runnethG5143, butG235 of GodG2316 that sheweth mercyG1653.
ForG1063 the scriptureG1124 saithG3004 unto PharaohG5328, Even forG3754+G1519 thisG5124 same purposeG846 have I raisedG1825 theeG4571 upG1825, thatG3704 I might shewG1731 myG3450 powerG1411 inG1722 theeG4671, andG2532 thatG3704 myG3450 nameG3686 might be declaredG1229 throughoutG1722 allG3956 the earthG1093.
ThereforeG686+G3767 hath he mercyG1653 on whomG3739 he willG2309 have mercy, andG1161 whomG3739 he willG2309 he hardenethG4645.
Thou wilt sayG2046 thenG3767 unto meG3427, WhyG5101 doth he yetG2089 find faultG3201? ForG1063 whoG5101 hath resistedG436 hisG846 willG1013?
Nay butG3304, OG5599 manG444, whoG5101 artG1488 thouG4771 that repliest againstG470 GodG2316+G3361? ShallG2046 the thing formedG4110 sayG2046 to him that formedG4111 it, WhyG5101 hast thou madeG4160 meG3165 thusG3779? {repliest…: or, answerest again, or, disputest with God?}
HathG2192 notG3756 the potterG2763 powerG1849 over the clayG4081, ofG1537 the sameG846 lumpG5445 toG3739+G3303 makeG4160 one vesselG4632 untoG1519 honourG5092, andG1161 anotherG3739 untoG1519 dishonourG819?
What ifG1487+G1161 GodG2316, willingG2309 to shewG1731 his wrathG3709, andG2532 to makeG1107 hisG846 powerG1415 knownG1107, enduredG5342 withG1722 muchG4183 longsufferingG3115 the vesselsG4632 of wrathG3709 fittedG2675 toG1519 destructionG684: {fitted: or, made up}
AndG2532 thatG2443 he might make knownG1107 the richesG4149 of hisG846 gloryG1391 onG1909 the vesselsG4632 of mercyG1656, whichG3739 he had afore preparedG4282 untoG1519 gloryG1391,
EvenG2532 usG2248, whomG3739 he hath calledG2564, notG3756 ofG1537 the JewsG2453 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 ofG1537 the GentilesG1484?
As he saithG3004 alsoG2532 inG1722 OseeG5617, I will callG2564 them myG3450 peopleG2992, which were notG3756 myG3450 peopleG2992; andG2532 her belovedG25, which wasG25 notG3756 belovedG25.
AndG2532 it shall come to passG2071, that inG1722 the placeG5117 whereG3757+G3739 it was saidG4483 unto themG846, YeG5210 are notG3756 myG3450 peopleG2992; thereG1563 shall they be calledG2564 the childrenG5207 of the livingG2198 GodG2316.
EsaiasG2268 alsoG1161 criethG2896 concerningG5228 IsraelG2474, ThoughG1437 the numberG706 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 beG5600 asG5613 the sandG285 of the seaG2281, a remnantG2640 shall be savedG4982:
ForG1063 he will finishG4931 the workG3056, andG2532 cut it shortG4932 inG1722 righteousnessG1343: becauseG3754 a shortG4932 workG3056 willG4160 the LordG2962 makeG4160 uponG1909 the earthG1093. {the work: or, the account}
AndG2532 asG2531 EsaiasG2268 said beforeG4280, ExceptG1508 the LordG2962 of SabaothG4519 had leftG1459 usG2254 a seedG4690, we had beenG302+G1096 asG5613 SodomaG4670, andG2532 been made likeG302+G3666 untoG5613 GomorrhaG1116.
I sayG3004 thenG3767+G3361, HathG683 GodG2316 cast awayG683 hisG846 peopleG2992? God forbidG3361+G1096. ForG1063 IG1473 alsoG2532 amG1510 an IsraeliteG2475, ofG1537 the seedG4690 of AbrahamG11, of the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958.
GodG2316 hathG683 notG3756 cast awayG683 hisG846 peopleG2992 whichG3739 he foreknewG4267+G2228. Wot yeG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 the scriptureG1124 saithG3004 ofG1722 EliasG2243? howG5613 he maketh intercessionG1793 to GodG2316 againstG2596 IsraelG2474, sayingG3004, {of Elias: Gr. in Elias?}
LordG2962, they have killedG615 thyG4675 prophetsG4396, andG2532 digged downG2679 thineG4675 altarsG2379; and IG2504 am leftG5275 aloneG3441, andG2532 they seekG2212 myG3450 lifeG5590.
ButG235 whatG5101 saithG3004 the answer of GodG5538 unto himG846? I have reservedG2641 to myselfG1683 seven thousandG2035 menG435, whoG3748 haveG2578 notG3756 bowedG2578 the kneeG1119 to the image of BaalG896.
Even soG3779 thenG3767 atG1722 this presentG3568 timeG2540 alsoG2532 there isG1096 a remnantG3005 accordingG2596 to the electionG1589 of graceG5485.
AndG1161 ifG1487 by graceG5485, then is it no moreG2089+G3765 ofG1537 worksG2041: otherwiseG1893 graceG5485 isG1096 no moreG2089+G3765 graceG5485. ButG1161 ifG1487 it be ofG1537 worksG2041, then is itG2076 no moreG2089+G3765 graceG5485: otherwiseG1893 workG2041 isG2076 no moreG2089+G3765 workG2041.
WhatG5101 thenG3767? IsraelG2474 hathG2013 notG3756 obtainedG2013 thatG5127 whichG3739 he seeketh forG1934; butG1161 the electionG1589 hath obtained itG2013, andG1161 the restG3062 were blindedG4456 {blinded: or, hardened}
(According asG2531 it is writtenG1125, GodG2316 hath givenG1325 themG846 the spiritG4151 of slumberG2659, eyesG3788 that they shouldG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 earsG3775 that they shouldG191 notG3361 hearG191;) untoG2193 thisG4594 dayG2250. {slumber: or, remorse}
AndG2532 DavidG1138 saithG3004, LetG1096 theirG846 tableG5132 be madeG1096 a snareG1519+G3803, andG2532 a trapG1519+G2339, andG2532 a stumblingblockG1519+G4625, andG2532 a recompenceG1519+G468 unto themG846:
LetG4654 theirG846 eyesG3788 be darkenedG4654, that they mayG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 bow downG4781 theirG846 backG3577 alwayG1275.
I sayG3004 thenG3767+G3361, Have they stumbledG4417 thatG2443 they should fallG4098? God forbidG3361+G1096: butG235 rather through theirG846 fallG3900 salvationG4991 is come unto the GentilesG1484, for toG1519 provokeG3863 themG846 to jealousyG3863.
NowG1161 ifG1487 the fallG3900 of themG846 be the richesG4149 of the worldG2889, andG2532 the diminishingG2275 of themG846 the richesG4149 of the GentilesG1484; howG4214 much moreG3123 theirG846 fulnessG4138? {diminishing: or, decay, or, loss}
ForG1063 I speakG3004 to youG5213 GentilesG1484, inasmuch asG1909+G3745+G3303 IG1473 amG1510 the apostleG652 of the GentilesG1484, I magnifyG1392 mineG3450 officeG1248:
If by any meansG1513+G4458 I may provoke to emulationG3863 them which are myG3450 fleshG4561, andG2532 might saveG4982 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846.
ForG1063 ifG1487 the casting awayG580 of themG846 be the reconcilingG2643 of the worldG2889, whatG5101 shall the receivingG4356 of them be, butG1508 lifeG2222 fromG1537 the deadG3498?
ForG1161 ifG1487 the firstfruitG536 be holyG40, the lumpG5445 is alsoG2532 holy: andG2532 ifG1487 the rootG4491 be holyG40, soG2532 are the branchesG2798.
AndG1161 if someG1536 of the branchesG2798 be broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771, beingG5607 a wild olive treeG65, wert graffed inG1461 amongG1722 themG846, andG2532 withG4791 themG1096 partakestG4791 of the rootG4491 andG2532 fatnessG4096 of the olive treeG1636; {among them: or, for them}
BoastG2620 notG3361 againstG2620 the branchesG2798. ButG1161 ifG1487 thou boastG2620, thouG4771 bearestG941 notG3756 the rootG4491, butG235 the rootG4491 theeG4571.
Thou wilt sayG2046 thenG3767, The branchesG2798 were broken offG1575, thatG2443 IG1473 might be graffed inG1461.
WellG2573; because of unbeliefG570 they were broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771 standestG2476 by faithG4102. BeG5309 notG3361 highmindedG5309, butG235 fearG5399:
ForG1063 ifG1487 GodG2316 sparedG5339 notG3756 the naturalG5449 branchesG2798+G2596, take heed lestG4458+G3381 heG5339 alsoG3381 spareG5339 notG3761 theeG4675.
BeholdG1492 thereforeG3767 the goodnessG5544 andG2532 severityG663 of GodG2316: onG1909 them which fellG4098+G3303, severityG663; butG1161 towardG1909 theeG4571, goodnessG5544, ifG1437 thou continueG1961 in his goodnessG5544: otherwiseG1893 thouG4771 alsoG2532 shalt be cut offG1581.
AndG1161 theyG1565 alsoG2532, ifG3362 they abideG1961 notG3362 still in unbeliefG570, shall be graffed inG1461: forG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 ableG1415 to graffG1461 themG846 inG1461 againG3825.
ForG1063 ifG1487 thouG4771 wert cutG1581 out ofG1537 the olive tree which is wildG65 byG2596 natureG5449, andG2532 wert graffedG1461 contrary toG3844 natureG5449 intoG1519 a good olive treeG2565: how muchG4214 moreG3123 shall theseG3778, which be the naturalG2596+G5449 branches, be graffed intoG1461 their ownG2398 olive treeG1636?
ForG1063 I wouldG2309 notG3756, brethrenG80, that yeG5209 should be ignorantG50 of thisG5124 mysteryG3466, lestG3363 ye should beG5600 wiseG5429 inG3844 your own conceitsG1438; thatG3754 blindnessG4457 inG575 partG3313 is happenedG1096 to IsraelG2474, untilG891+G3739 the fulnessG4138 of the GentilesG1484 be come inG1525. {blindness: or, hardness}
AndG2532 soG3779 allG3956 IsraelG2474 shall be savedG4982: asG2531 it is writtenG1125, There shall comeG2240 out ofG1537 SionG4622 the DelivererG4506, andG2532 shall turn awayG654 ungodlinessG763 fromG575 JacobG2384:
ForG2532 thisG3778 is myG3844+G1700 covenantG1242 unto themG846, whenG3752 I shall take awayG851 theirG846 sinsG266.
As concerningG2596+G3303 the gospelG2098, they are enemiesG2190 for your sakesG1223+G5209: butG1161 as touchingG2596 the electionG1589, they are belovedG27 forG1223 the fathers'G3962 sakesG1223.
ForG1063 the giftsG5486 andG2532 callingG2821 of GodG2316 are without repentanceG278.
ForG1063 asG5618+G2532 yeG5210 in times pastG4218 have not believedG544 GodG2316, yetG1161 haveG1653 nowG3568 obtained mercyG1653 throughG5130 their unbeliefG543: {believed: or, obeyed}
Even soG3779 haveG544 theseG3778 alsoG2532 nowG3568 not believedG544, thatG2443 through yourG5212 mercyG1656 theyG846 alsoG2532 may obtain mercyG1653. {believed: or, obeyed}
ForG1063 GodG2316 hath concludedG4788 them allG3956 inG1519 unbeliefG543, thatG2443 he might have mercyG1653 upon allG3956. {concluded…: or, shut them all up together}
OG5599 the depthG899 of the richesG4149 bothG2532 of the wisdomG4678 andG2532 knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316! howG5613 unsearchableG419 are hisG846 judgmentsG2917, andG2532 hisG846 waysG3598 past finding outG421!
ForG1063 whoG5101 hath knownG1097 the mindG3563 of the LordG2962? orG2228 whoG5101 hath beenG1096 hisG846 counsellorG4825?
OrG2228 whoG5101 hath first givenG4272 to himG846, andG2532 it shall be recompensedG467 unto himG846 againG467?
ForG3754 ofG1537 himG846, andG2532 throughG1223 himG846, andG2532 toG1519 himG846, are all thingsG3956: to whomG846 be gloryG1391 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {whom: Gr. him}
I beseechG3870 youG5209 thereforeG3767, brethrenG80, byG1223 the merciesG3628 of GodG2316, that ye presentG3936 yourG5216 bodiesG4983 a livingG2198 sacrificeG2378, holyG40, acceptableG2101 unto GodG2316, which is yourG5216 reasonableG3050 serviceG2999.
AndG2532 beG4964 notG3361 conformedG4964 to thisG5129 worldG165: butG235 be ye transformedG3339 by the renewingG342 of yourG5216 mindG3563, thatG1519 yeG5209 may proveG1381 whatG5101 is that goodG18, andG2532 acceptableG2101, andG2532 perfectG5046, willG2307 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 I sayG3004, throughG1223 the graceG5485 givenG1325 unto meG3427, to every manG3956 that isG5607 amongG1722 youG5213, notG3361 to think of himself moreG3844 highlyG5252 thanG3739 he oughtG1163 to thinkG5426; butG235 to thinkG5426 soberlyG1519+G4993, according asG5613 GodG2316 hath dealtG3307 to every manG1538 the measureG3358 of faithG4102. {soberly: Gr. to sobriety}
ForG1063 asG2509 we haveG2192 manyG4183 membersG3196 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG1161 allG3956 membersG3196 haveG2192 notG3756 the sameG846 officeG4234:
SoG3779 weG2070, being manyG4183, areG2070 oneG1520 bodyG4983 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG1161 everyG2596 oneG1520 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
HavingG2192 thenG1161 giftsG5486 differingG1313 accordingG2596 to the graceG5485 that is givenG1325 to usG2254, whetherG1535 prophecyG4394, let us prophesy accordingG2596 to the proportionG356 of faithG4102;
OrG1535 ministryG1248, let us wait onG1722 our ministeringG1248: orG1535 he that teachethG1321, onG1722 teachingG1319;
OrG1535 he that exhortethG3870, onG1722 exhortationG3874: he that givethG3330, let him do it withG1722 simplicityG572; he that rulethG4291, withG1722 diligenceG4710; he that sheweth mercyG1653, withG1722 cheerfulnessG2432. {giveth: or, imparteth} {with simplicity: or, liberally}
Let loveG26 be without dissimulationG505. AbhorG655 that which is evilG4190; cleaveG2853 to that which is goodG18.
Be kindly affectionedG5387 one to anotherG1519+G240 with brotherly loveG5360; in honourG5092 preferringG4285 one anotherG240; {with…: or, in the love of the brethren}
NotG3361 slothfulG3636 in businessG4710; ferventG2204 in spiritG4151; servingG1398 the LordG2962;
RejoicingG5463 in hopeG1680; patientG5278 in tribulationG2347; continuing instantG4342 in prayerG4335;
DistributingG2841 to the necessityG5532 of saintsG40; givenG1377 to hospitalityG5381.
BlessG2127 them which persecuteG1377 youG5209: blessG2127, andG2532 curseG2672 notG3361.
RejoiceG5463 withG3326 them that do rejoiceG5463, andG2532 weepG2799 withG3326 them that weepG2799.
Be of the sameG846 mindG5426 one toward anotherG1519+G240. MindG5426 notG3361 high thingsG5308, butG235 condescendG4879 to men of low estateG5011. BeG1096 notG3361 wiseG5429 inG3844 your own conceitsG1438. {condescend…: or, be contented with mean things}
RecompenseG591 to no manG3367 evilG2556 forG473 evilG2556. ProvideG4306 things honestG2570 in the sightG1799 of allG3956 menG444.
IfG1487 it be possibleG1415, as much as lieth inG1537 youG5216, live peaceablyG1514 withG3326 allG3956 menG444.
Dearly belovedG27, avengeG1556 notG3361 yourselvesG1438, butG235 rather giveG1325 placeG5117 unto wrathG3709: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, VengeanceG1557 is mineG1698; IG1473 will repayG467, saithG3004 the LordG2962.
ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 thineG4675 enemyG2190 hungerG3983, feedG5595 himG846; ifG1437 he thirstG1372, giveG4222 himG846 drinkG4222: forG1063 in soG5124 doingG4160 thou shalt heapG4987 coalsG440 of fireG4442 onG1909 hisG846 headG2776.
BeG3528 notG3361 overcomeG3528 ofG5259 evilG2556, butG235 overcomeG3528 evilG2556 withG1722 goodG18.
Let everyG3956 soulG5590 be subjectG5293 unto the higherG5242 powersG1849. ForG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 powerG1849 butG1508 ofG575 GodG2316+G1161: the powersG1849 that beG5607 areG1526 ordainedG5021 ofG5259 GodG2316. {ordained: or, ordered}
Whosoever thereforeG5620 resistethG498 the powerG1849, resistethG436 the ordinanceG1296 of GodG2316: andG1161 they that resistG436 shall receiveG2983 to themselvesG1438 damnationG2917.
ForG1063 rulersG758 areG1526 notG3756 a terrorG5401 to goodG18 worksG2041, butG235 to the evilG2556. Wilt thouG2309 thenG1161 notG3361 be afraidG5399 of the powerG1849? doG4160 that which is goodG18, andG2532 thou shalt haveG2192 praiseG1868 ofG1537 the sameG846:
ForG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316 to theeG4671 forG1519 goodG18. ButG1161 ifG1437 thou doG4160 that which is evilG2556, be afraidG5399; forG1063 he bearethG5409 notG3756 the swordG3162 in vainG1500: forG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316, a revengerG1558 to execute wrathG3709 uponG1519 him that doethG4238 evilG2556.
WhereforeG1352 ye must needsG318 be subjectG5293, notG3756 onlyG3440 forG1223 wrathG3709, butG235 alsoG2532 for conscienceG4893 sakeG1223.
ForG1063 forG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 pay yeG5055 tributeG5411 alsoG2532: forG1063 they areG1526 God'sG2316 ministersG3011, attending continuallyG4342 uponG1519 thisG5124 very thingG846.
RenderG591 thereforeG3767 to allG3956 their duesG3782: tributeG5411 to whomG3588 tributeG5411 is due; customG5056 to whomG3588 customG5056; fearG5401 to whomG3588 fearG5401; honourG5092 to whomG3588 honourG5092.
OweG3784 no manG3367 any thingG3367, butG1508 to loveG25 one anotherG240: forG1063 he that lovethG25 anotherG2087 hath fulfilledG4137 the lawG3551.
ForG1063 this, Thou shaltG3431 notG3756 commit adulteryG3431, Thou shaltG5407 notG3756 killG5407, Thou shaltG2813 notG3756 stealG2813, Thou shaltG5576 notG3756 bear false witnessG5576, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937; andG2532 if there be anyG1536 otherG2087 commandmentG1785, it is briefly comprehendedG346 inG1722 thisG5129 sayingG3056, namelyG1722, Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4675 neighbourG4139 asG5613 thyselfG1438.
LoveG26 workethG2038 noG3756 illG2556 to his neighbourG4139: thereforeG3767 loveG26 is the fulfillingG4138 of the lawG3551.
AndG2532 thatG5124, knowingG1492 the timeG2540, thatG3754 nowG2235 it is high timeG5610 to awakeG2248+G1453 out ofG1537 sleepG5258: forG1063 nowG3568 is ourG2257 salvationG4991 nearerG1452 thanG2228 whenG3753 we believedG4100.
The nightG3571 is far spentG4298+G1161, the dayG2250 is at handG1448: let usG659 thereforeG3767 cast offG659 the worksG2041 of darknessG4655, andG2532 let us put onG1746 the armourG3696 of lightG5457.
Let us walkG4043 honestlyG2156, asG5613 inG1722 the dayG2250; notG3361 in riotingG2970 andG2532 drunkennessG3178, notG3361 in chamberingG2845 andG2532 wantonnessG766, notG3361 in strifeG2054 andG2532 envyingG2205. {honestly: or, decently}
ButG235 put ye onG1746 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 makeG4160 notG3361 provisionG4307 forG1519 the fleshG4561, to fulfil the lustsG1939 thereof.
Him that is weakG770 in the faithG4102 receive yeG4355, butG1161 notG3361 toG1519 doubtfulG1261 disputationsG1253. {not…: or, not to judge his doubtful thoughts}
ForG3303 oneG3739 believethG4100 that he may eatG5315 all thingsG3956: anotherG1161, who is weakG770, eatethG2068 herbsG3001.
LetG1848 notG3361 him that eatethG2068 despiseG1848 him that eatethG2068 notG3361; andG2532 letG2068 notG3361 him which eatethG2068 notG3361 judgeG2919 him that eatethG2068: forG1063 GodG2316 hath receivedG4355 himG846.
WhoG5101 artG1488 thouG4771 that judgestG2919 another man'sG245 servantG3610? to his ownG2398 masterG2962 he standethG4739 orG2228 fallethG4098. YeaG1161, he shall be holden upG2476: forG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 ableG1415 to makeG2476 himG846 standG2476.
OneG3303 manG3739 esteemethG2919 one dayG2250 aboveG3844 anotherG2250+G1161: anotherG3739 esteemethG2919 everyG3956 dayG2250 alike. LetG4135 every manG1538 be fully persuadedG4135 inG1722 his ownG2398 mindG3563. {fully persuaded: or, fully assured}
He that regardethG5426 the dayG2250, regardethG5426 it unto the LordG2962; andG2532 he that regardethG5426 notG3361 the dayG2250, to the LordG2962 he dothG5426 notG3756 regardG5426 it. He that eatethG2068, eatethG2068 to the LordG2962, forG1063 he giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168; andG2532 he that eatethG2068 notG3361, to the LordG2962 he eatethG2068 notG3756, andG2532 giveth GodG2316 thanksG2168. {regardeth: or, observeth}
ForG1063 noneG3762 of usG2257 livethG2198 to himselfG1438, andG2532 no manG3762 diethG599 to himselfG1438.
ForG1063 whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198, we liveG2198 unto the LordG2962; and whetherG1437+G5037 we dieG599, we dieG599 unto the LordG2962: whetherG1437+G5037 we liveG2198 thereforeG3767, orG1437+G5037 dieG599, we areG2070 the Lord'sG2962.
ForG1063 toG1519 thisG5124 end ChristG5547 bothG2532 diedG599, andG2532 roseG450, andG2532 revivedG326, thatG2443 he might be LordG2961 bothG2532 of the deadG3498 andG2532 livingG2198.
ButG1161 whyG5101 dostG2919 thouG4771 judgeG2919 thyG4675 brotherG80? orG2228+G2532 whyG5101 dostG1848 thouG4771 set at noughtG1848 thyG4675 brotherG80? forG1063 we shallG3936 allG3956 stand beforeG3936 the judgment seatG968 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, As IG1473 liveG2198, saithG3004 the LordG2962+G3754, everyG3956 kneeG1119 shall bowG2578 to meG1698, andG2532 everyG3956 tongueG1100 shall confessG1843 to GodG2316.
SoG3767 thenG686 every oneG1538 of usG2257 shall giveG1325 accountG3056 ofG4012 himselfG1438 to GodG2316.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of patienceG5281 andG2532 consolationG3874 grantG1325 youG5213 to beG846 likemindedG5426 oneG240 toward anotherG1722+G240 accordingG2596 to ChristG5547 JesusG2424: {according to: or, after the example of}
ThatG2443 ye mayG1392 with one mindG3661 andG1722 oneG1520 mouthG4750 glorifyG1392 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 receive yeG4355 one anotherG240, asG2531+G2532 ChristG5547 alsoG2531 receivedG4355 usG2248 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 I sayG3004 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG1096 a ministerG1249 of the circumcisionG4061 forG5228 the truthG225 of GodG2316, toG1519 confirmG950 the promisesG1860 made unto the fathersG3962:
AndG1161 that the GentilesG1484 might glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG5228 his mercyG1656; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 I will confessG1843 to theeG4671 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 singG5567 unto thyG4675 nameG3686.
AndG2532 againG3825 he saithG3004, Rejoice, yeG2165 GentilesG1484, withG3326 hisG846 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, PraiseG134 the LordG2962, allG3956 yeG134 GentilesG1484; andG2532 laudG1867 himG846, all yeG3956 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, EsaiasG2268 saithG3004, There shall beG2071 a rootG4491 of JesseG2421, andG2532 he that shall riseG450 to reign overG757 the GentilesG1484; inG1909 himG846 shallG1679 the GentilesG1484 trustG1679.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of hopeG1680 fillG4137 youG5209 with allG3956 joyG5479 andG2532 peaceG1515 inG1722 believingG4100, thatG1519 yeG5209 may aboundG4052 inG1722 hopeG1680, throughG1722 the powerG1411 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
AndG1161 IG1473 myselfG846 alsoG2532 am persuadedG3982 ofG4012 youG5216, myG3450 brethrenG80, thatG3754 yeG846 alsoG2532 areG2075 fullG3324 of goodnessG19, filledG4137 with allG3956 knowledgeG1108, ableG1410 alsoG2532 to admonishG3560 one anotherG240.
NeverthelessG1161, brethrenG80, I have writtenG1125 the more boldlyG5112 unto youG5213 inG575 some sortG3313, asG5613 puttingG1878 youG5209 in mindG1878, becauseG1223 of the graceG5485 that is givenG1325 to meG3427 ofG5259 GodG2316,
That IG3165 should beG1519+G1511 the ministerG3011 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316, thatG2443 the offering upG4376 of the GentilesG1484 might beG1096 acceptableG2144, being sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {offering up: or, sacrificing}
I haveG2192 therefore whereofG3767 I may gloryG2746 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 in those things which pertain toG4314 GodG2316.
ForG1063 I willG5111 notG3756 dareG5111 to speakG2980 of anyG5100 of those things whichG3739 ChristG5547 hathG2716 notG3756 wroughtG2716 byG1223 meG1700, to makeG1519 the GentilesG1484 obedientG5218, by wordG3056 andG2532 deedG2041,
ThroughG1722 mightyG1411 signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059, byG1722 the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316; soG5620 that fromG575 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 round aboutG2945 untoG3360 IllyricumG2437, IG3165 have fully preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
YeaG1161, soG3779 have I strivedG5389 to preach the gospelG2097, notG3756 whereG3699 ChristG5547 was namedG3687, lestG3363 I should buildG3618 uponG1909 another man'sG245 foundationG2310:
ButG235 asG2531 it is writtenG1125, To whomG3739 heG846 wasG312 notG3756 spokenG312 ofG4012, they shall seeG3700: andG2532 theyG3739 that haveG191 notG3756 heardG191 shall understandG4920.
For which causeG1352 alsoG2532 I have beenG1465 muchG4183 hinderedG1465 from comingG2064 toG4314 youG5209. {much: or, many ways, or oftentimes}
ButG1161 nowG3570 havingG2192 no moreG3371 placeG5117 inG1722 theseG575+G5125 partsG2824, andG1161 havingG2192 a great desireG1974 these manyG4183 yearsG2094 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209;
WhensoeverG5613+G1437 I take my journeyG4198 intoG1519 SpainG4681, I will comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209: forG1063 I trustG1679 to seeG2300 youG5209 in my journeyG1279, andG2532 to be brought on my wayG4311 thitherwardG1563 byG5259 youG5216, ifG1437 firstG4412 I beG1705 somewhatG3313 filledG1705 withG575 yourG5216 company. {with…: Gr. with you}
ButG1161 nowG3570 I goG4198 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 to ministerG1247 unto the saintsG40.
ForG1063 it hath pleased themG2106 of MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882 to makeG4160 a certainG5100 contributionG2842 forG1519 the poorG4434 saintsG40 whichG3588 are atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
It hath pleased themG2106 verilyG1063; andG2532 theirG846 debtorsG3781 they areG1526. ForG1063 ifG1487 the GentilesG1484 have been made partakersG2841 of theirG846 spiritual thingsG4152, their duty isG3784 alsoG2532 to ministerG3008 unto themG846 inG1722 carnal thingsG4559.
When thereforeG3767 I have performedG2005 thisG5124, andG2532 have sealedG4972 to themG846 thisG5126 fruitG2590, I will comeG565 byG1223 youG5216 intoG1519 SpainG4681.
AndG1161 I am sureG1492 thatG3754, when I comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, I shall comeG2064 inG1722 the fulnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, forG1223 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ'sG5547 sakeG2257, andG2532 forG1223 the loveG26 of the SpiritG4151, that ye strive togetherG4865 with meG3427 inG1722 your prayersG4335 toG4314 GodG2316 forG5228 meG1700;
ThatG2443 I may be deliveredG4506 fromG575 them that do not believeG544 inG1722 JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thatG2443 myG3450 serviceG1248 whichG3588 I have forG1519 JerusalemG2419 may beG1096 acceptedG2144 of the saintsG40; {do not…: or, are disobedient}
ThatG2443 I may comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 withG1722 joyG5479 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 mayG4875 with youG5213 be refreshedG4875.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 be withG3326 youG5216 allG3956. AmenG281.
I commendG4921 unto youG5213 PhebeG5402 ourG2257 sisterG79, which isG5607 a servantG1249 of the churchG1577 whichG3588 is atG1722 CenchreaG2747:
ThatG2443 ye receiveG4327 herG846 inG1722 the LordG2962, as becomethG516 saintsG40, andG2532 that ye assistG3936 herG846 inG1722 whatsoeverG3739+G302 businessG4229 she hath needG5535 of youG5216: forG1063 sheG3778+G846 hath beenG1096 a succourerG4368 of manyG4183, andG2532 of myselfG846+G1700 alsoG2532.
GreetG782 PriscillaG4252 andG2532 AquilaG207 myG3450 helpersG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhoG3748 haveG5294 forG5228 myG3450 lifeG5590 laid downG5294 their ownG1438 necksG5137: unto whomG3739 notG3756 onlyG3441 IG1473 give thanksG2168, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 the churchesG1577 of the GentilesG1484.
LikewiseG2532 greet the churchG1577 that is inG2596 theirG846 houseG3624. SaluteG782 myG3450 wellbelovedG27 EpaenetusG1866, whoG3739 isG2076 the firstfruitsG536 of AchaiaG882 untoG1519 ChristG5547.
GreetG782 MaryG3137, whoG3748 bestowedG2872 muchG4183 labourG2872 onG1519 usG2248.
SaluteG782 AndronicusG408 andG2532 JuniaG2458, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, andG2532 myG3450 fellowprisonersG4869, whoG3748 areG1526 of noteG1978 amongG1722 the apostlesG652, whoG3739 alsoG2532 wereG1096 inG1722 ChristG5547 beforeG4253 meG1700.
GreetG782 AmpliasG291 myG3450 belovedG27 inG1722 the LordG2962.
SaluteG782 UrbaneG3773, ourG2257 helperG4904 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG2532 StachysG4720 myG3450 belovedG27.
SaluteG782 ApellesG559 approvedG1384 inG1722 ChristG5547. SaluteG782 themG3588 which are ofG1537 Aristobulus'G711 household. {household: or, friends}
SaluteG782 HerodionG2267 myG3450 kinsmanG4773. GreetG782 themG3588 that be ofG1537 the household of NarcissusG3488, whichG3588 areG5607 inG1722 the LordG2962. {household: or, friends}
SaluteG782 TryphenaG5170 andG2532 TryphosaG5173, who labourG2872 inG1722 the LordG2962. SaluteG782 the belovedG27 PersisG4069, whichG3748 labouredG2872 muchG4183 inG1722 the LordG2962.
SaluteG782 RufusG4504 chosenG1588 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 andG2532 mineG1700.
SaluteG782 AsyncritusG799, PhlegonG5393, HermasG2057, PatrobasG3969, HermesG2060, andG2532 the brethrenG80 which are withG4862 themG846.
SaluteG782 PhilologusG5378, andG2532 JuliaG2456, NereusG3517, andG2532 hisG846 sisterG79, andG2532 OlympasG3652, andG2532 allG3956 the saintsG40 which are withG4862 themG846.
SaluteG782 one anotherG240 withG1722 an holyG40 kissG5370. The churchesG1577 of ChristG5547 saluteG782 youG5209.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, markG4648 them which causeG4160 divisionsG1370 andG2532 offencesG4625 contraryG3844 to the doctrineG1322 whichG3739 yeG5210 have learnedG3129; andG2532 avoidG1578 themG575+G846.
ForG1063 they that are suchG5108 serveG1398 notG3756 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 their ownG1438 bellyG2836; andG2532 byG1223 good wordsG5542 andG2532 fair speechesG2129 deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the simpleG172.
ForG1063 yourG5216 obedienceG5218 is come abroadG864 untoG1519 allG3956 men. I am gladG5463 thereforeG3767 onG1909 yourG5213 behalfG1909: but yetG1161 I would haveG2309 youG5209 wiseG4680 untoG1519 that which isG1511 goodG3303+G18, andG1161 simpleG185 concerningG1519 evilG2556. {simple: or, harmless}
AndG1161 the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 shall bruiseG4937 SatanG4567 underG5259 yourG5216 feetG4228 shortlyG1722+G5034. The graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG5216. AmenG281. {bruise: or, tread}
TimotheusG5095 myG3450 workfellowG4904, andG2532 LuciusG3066, andG2532 JasonG2394, andG2532 SosipaterG4989, myG3450 kinsmenG4773, saluteG782 youG5209.
IG1473 TertiusG5060, who wroteG1125 this epistleG1992, saluteG782 youG5209 inG1722 the LordG2962.
GaiusG1050 mineG3450 hostG3581, andG2532 of the wholeG3650 churchG1577, salutethG782 youG5209. ErastusG2037 the chamberlainG3623 of the cityG4172 salutethG782 youG5209, andG2532 QuartusG2890 a brotherG80.
The graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG5216 allG3956. AmenG281.
NowG1161 to him that is of powerG1410 to stablishG4741 youG5209 accordingG2596 to myG3450 gospelG2098, andG2532 the preachingG2782 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, accordingG2596 to the revelationG602 of the mysteryG3466, which was kept secretG4601 since the world beganG5550+G166,
ButG1161 nowG3568 is made manifestG5319, andG5037 byG1223 the scripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4397, accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of the everlastingG166 GodG2316, made knownG1107 toG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484 forG1519 the obedienceG5218 of faithG4102:
To GodG2316 onlyG3441 wiseG4680, be gloryG1391 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {Written to the Romans from Corinthus, and sent by Phebe servant of the church at Cenchrea.}
ForG1063 allG3956 have sinnedG264, andG2532 come shortG5302 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316;
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
ForG1063 the invisible thingsG517 of himG846 fromG575 the creationG2937 of the worldG2889 are clearly seenG2529, being understoodG3539 by the things that are madeG4161, evenG5037 hisG846 eternalG126 powerG1411 andG2532 GodheadG2305; soG1519 that theyG846 areG1511 without excuseG379: {so…: or, that they may be}
BecauseG1360 that, when they knewG1097 GodG2316, they glorifiedG1392 him notG3756 asG5613 GodG2316, neitherG2228 were thankfulG2168; butG235 became vainG3154 inG1722 theirG846 imaginationsG1261, andG2532 theirG846 foolishG801 heartG2588 was darkenedG4654.
Professing themselvesG5335 to beG1511 wiseG4680, they became foolsG3471,
AndG2532 changedG236 the gloryG1391 of the uncorruptibleG862 GodG2316 intoG1722 an imageG1504 made likeG3667 to corruptibleG5349 manG444, andG2532 to birdsG4071, andG2532 fourfooted beastsG5074, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062.
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 toG1519 uncleannessG167 throughG1722 the lustsG1939 of their ownG846 heartsG2588, to dishonourG818 their ownG846 bodiesG4983 betweenG1722 themselvesG1438:
WhoG3748 changedG3337 the truthG225 of GodG2316 intoG1722 a lieG5579, andG2532 worshippedG4573 andG2532 servedG3000 the creatureG2937 more thanG3844 the CreatorG2936, whoG3739 isG2076 blessedG2128 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {more: or, rather}
ForG1223 thisG5124 cause GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 untoG1519 vileG819 affectionsG3806: forG1063 evenG5037 theirG846 womenG2338 did changeG3337 the naturalG5446 useG5540 intoG1519 that which is againstG3844 natureG5449:
AndG5037 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the menG730, leavingG863 the naturalG5446 useG5540 of the womanG2338, burnedG1572 inG1722 theirG846 lustG3715 one toward anotherG1519+G240; menG730 withG1722 menG730 workingG2716 that which is unseemlyG808, andG2532 receivingG618 inG1722 themselvesG1438 that recompenceG489 of theirG846 errorG4106 whichG3739 was meetG1163.
AndG2532 even asG2531 they didG1381 notG3756 likeG1381 to retainG2192 GodG2316 inG1722 their knowledgeG1922, GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 overG3860 toG1519 a reprobateG96 mindG3563, to doG4160 those things which areG2520 notG3361 convenientG2520; {to retain: or, to acknowledge} {a reprobate…: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind}
AndG2532 even asG2531 they didG1381 notG3756 likeG1381 to retainG2192 GodG2316 inG1722 their knowledgeG1922, GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 overG3860 toG1519 a reprobateG96 mindG3563, to doG4160 those things which areG2520 notG3361 convenientG2520; {to retain: or, to acknowledge} {a reprobate…: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind}
Being filled withG4137 allG3956 unrighteousnessG93, fornicationG4202, wickednessG4189, covetousnessG4124, maliciousnessG2549; fullG3324 of envyG5355, murderG5408, debateG2054, deceitG1388, malignityG2550; whisperersG5588,
BackbitersG2637, haters of GodG2319, despitefulG5197, proudG5244, boastersG213, inventorsG2182 of evil thingsG2556, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118,
Without understandingG801, covenantbreakersG802, without natural affectionG794, implacableG786, unmercifulG415: {without natural…: or unsociable}
Without understandingG801, covenantbreakersG802, without natural affectionG794, implacableG786, unmercifulG415: {without natural…: or unsociable}
ButG1161 ofG1537 himG846 areG2075 yeG5210 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, whoG3739 ofG575 GodG2316 is madeG1096 unto usG2254+G5037 wisdomG4678, and righteousnessG1343, andG2532 sanctificationG38, andG2532 redemptionG629:
EvenG1161 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 which is byG1223 faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 untoG1519 allG3956 andG2532 uponG1909 allG3956 them that believeG4100: forG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 differenceG1293:
ToG4314 declareG1732, I say, atG1722 thisG3568 timeG2540 hisG846 righteousnessG1343: thatG1519 he might beG1511 justG1342, andG2532 the justifierG1344 of himG846 which believethG4102 inG1537 JesusG2424.
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhomG3739 GodG2316 hath set forthG4388 to be a propitiationG2435 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, toG1519 declareG1732 hisG846 righteousnessG1343 forG1223 the remissionG3929 of sinsG265 that are pastG4266, throughG1722 the forbearanceG463 of GodG2316; {set forth: or, foreordained} {remission: or, passing over}
WhomG3739 GodG2316 hath set forthG4388 to be a propitiationG2435 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, toG1519 declareG1732 hisG846 righteousnessG1343 forG1223 the remissionG3929 of sinsG265 that are pastG4266, throughG1722 the forbearanceG463 of GodG2316; {set forth: or, foreordained} {remission: or, passing over}
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhomG3739 GodG2316 hath set forthG4388 to be a propitiationG2435 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 hisG846 bloodG129, toG1519 declareG1732 hisG846 righteousnessG1343 forG1223 the remissionG3929 of sinsG265 that are pastG4266, throughG1722 the forbearanceG463 of GodG2316; {set forth: or, foreordained} {remission: or, passing over}
ToG4314 declareG1732, I say, atG1722 thisG3568 timeG2540 hisG846 righteousnessG1343: thatG1519 he might beG1511 justG1342, andG2532 the justifierG1344 of himG846 which believethG4102 inG1537 JesusG2424.
WhereG4226 is boastingG2746 thenG3767? It is excludedG1576. ByG1223 whatG4169 lawG3551? of worksG2041? NayG3780: butG235 byG1223 the lawG3551 of faithG4102.
ThereforeG3767 we concludeG3049 that a manG444 is justifiedG1344 by faithG4102 withoutG5565 the deedsG2041 of the lawG3551.
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.
ThereforeG3767 being justifiedG1344 byG1537 faithG4102, we haveG2192 peaceG1515 withG4314 GodG2316 throughG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
ByG1223 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we haveG2192 accessG4318 by faithG4102 intoG1519 thisG5026 graceG5485 whereinG1722+G3739 we standG2476, andG2532 rejoiceG2744 inG1909 hopeG1680 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 so, butG235 we gloryG2744 inG1722 tribulationsG2347 alsoG2532: knowingG1492 thatG3754 tribulationG2347 workethG2716 patienceG5281;
AndG1161 patienceG5281, experienceG1382; andG1161 experienceG1382, hopeG1680:
AndG1161 hopeG1680 makethG2617 notG3756 ashamedG2617; becauseG3754 the loveG26 of GodG2316 is shed abroadG1632 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588 byG1223 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 whichG3588 is givenG1325 unto usG2254.
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Shall we continueG1961 in sinG266, thatG2443 graceG5485 may aboundG4121?
God forbidG3361+G1096. HowG4459 shall we, thatG3748 are deadG599 to sinG266, liveG2198 any longerG2089 thereinG1722+G846?
Know ye notG50, that soG3754 many of usG3745 as were baptizedG907 intoG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 were baptizedG907 intoG1519 hisG846 deathG2288? {were: or, are} {were: or, are}
ThereforeG3767 we are buried withG4916 himG846 byG1223 baptismG908 intoG1519 deathG2288: thatG2443 like asG5618 ChristG5547 was raised upG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 byG1223 the gloryG1391 of the FatherG3962, even soG3779 weG2249 alsoG2532 should walkG4043 inG1722 newnessG2538 of lifeG2222.
ForG1063 ifG1487 we have beenG1096 planted togetherG4854 in the likenessG3667 of hisG846 deathG2288, we shall beG2071 alsoG235+G2532 in the likeness of his resurrectionG386:
KnowingG1097 thisG5124, thatG3754 ourG2257 oldG3820 manG444 is crucified withG4957 him, thatG2443 the bodyG4983 of sinG266 might be destroyedG2673, that henceforthG3371 weG2248 shouldG1398 notG3371 serveG1398 sinG266.
ForG1063 he that is deadG599 is freedG1344 fromG575 sinG266. {freed: Gr. justified}
NowG1161 ifG1487 we be deadG599 withG4862 ChristG5547, we believeG4100 thatG3754 we shallG4800 alsoG2532 liveG4800 with himG846:
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 ChristG5547 being raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 diethG599 no moreG3765; deathG2288 hathG2961 no moreG3765 dominion overG2961 himG846.
ForG3739+G1063 in that he diedG599, he diedG599 unto sinG266 onceG2178: butG1161 in thatG3739 he livethG2198, he livethG2198 unto GodG2316.
LikewiseG3779 reckonG3049 yeG5210 alsoG2532 yourselvesG1438 to beG1511 deadG3498 indeedG3303 unto sinG266, butG1161 aliveG2198 unto GodG2316 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
LetG936 notG3361 sinG266 thereforeG3767 reignG936 inG1722 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodyG4983, thatG1519 ye should obeyG5219 itG846 inG1722 the lustsG1939 thereofG846.
NeitherG3366 yield yeG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of unrighteousnessG93 unto sinG266: butG235 yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 unto GodG2316, asG5613 those that are aliveG2198 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 unto GodG2316. {instruments: Gr. arms, or, weapons}
ForG1063 sinG266 shallG2961 notG3756 have dominion overG2961 youG5216: forG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485.
WhatG5101 thenG3767? shall we sinG264, becauseG3754 we areG2070 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485? God forbidG3361+G1096.
Know yeG1492 notG3756, thatG3754 to whomG3739 ye yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 servantsG1401 toG1519 obeyG5218, his servantsG1401 ye areG2075 to whomG3739 ye obeyG5219; whetherG2273 of sinG266 untoG1519 deathG2288, orG2228 of obedienceG5218 untoG1519 righteousnessG1343?
ButG1161 GodG2316 be thankedG5485, thatG3754 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, butG1161 ye have obeyedG5219 fromG1537 the heartG2588 that formG5179 of doctrineG1322 whichG1519+G3739 was delivered youG3860. {which…: Gr. whereto ye were delivered}
BeingG1659 thenG1161 made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, ye became the servantsG1402 of righteousnessG1343.
I speakG3004 after the manner of menG442 becauseG1223 of the infirmityG769 of yourG5216 fleshG4561: forG1063 asG5618 ye have yieldedG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to uncleannessG167 andG2532 to iniquityG458 untoG1519 iniquityG458; even soG3779 nowG3568 yieldG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to righteousnessG1343 untoG1519 holinessG38.
ForG1063 whenG3753 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, ye wereG2258 freeG1658 from righteousnessG1343. {from…: Gr. to righteousness}
WhatG5101+G3767 fruitG2590 had yeG2192 thenG5119 inG1909 those things whereofG3739 ye areG1870 nowG3568 ashamedG1870? forG1063 the endG5056 of those thingsG1565 is deathG2288.
ButG1161 nowG3570 being made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, andG1161 become servantsG1402 to GodG2316, ye haveG2192 yourG5216 fruitG2590 untoG1519 holinessG38, andG1161 the endG5056 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 the wagesG3800 of sinG266 is deathG2288; butG1161 the giftG5486 of GodG2316 is eternalG166 lifeG2222 throughG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962.
Know ye notG50, brethrenG80, (forG1063 I speakG2980 to them that knowG1097 the lawG3551,) how thatG3754 the lawG3551 hath dominion overG2961 a manG444 as long asG1909+G3745+G5550 he livethG2198?
ForG1063 the womanG1135 which hath an husbandG5220 is boundG1210 by the lawG3551 to her husbandG435 so long as he livethG2198; butG1161 ifG1437 the husbandG435 be deadG599, she is loosedG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551 of her husbandG435.
So thenG686+G3767 ifG1437, while her husbandG435 livethG2198, she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435, she shall be calledG5537 an adulteressG3428: butG1161 ifG1437 her husbandG435 be deadG599, she isG2076 freeG1658 fromG575 that lawG3551; so that sheG846 isG1511 noG3361 adulteressG3428, though she be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 brethrenG80, yeG5210 alsoG2532 are become deadG2289 to the lawG3551 byG1223 the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547; thatG1519 yeG5209 should be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087, even to him who is raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, thatG2443 we should bring forth fruitG2592 unto GodG2316.
ForG1063 whenG3753 we wereG2258 inG1722 the fleshG4561, the motionsG3804 of sinsG266, whichG3588 were byG1223 the lawG3551, did workG1754 inG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196 to bringG1519 forth fruitG2592 unto deathG2288. {motions: Gr. passions}
ButG1161 nowG3570 we are deliveredG2673 fromG575 the lawG3551, that being deadG599 whereinG1722+G3739 we were heldG2722; thatG5620 weG2248 should serveG1398 inG1722 newnessG2538 of spiritG4151, andG2532 notG3756 in the oldnessG3821 of the letterG1121. {that being…: or, being dead to that}
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Is the lawG3551 sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096. NayG235, I hadG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 sinG266, butG1508 byG1223 the lawG3551: forG1063+G5037 I hadG1492 notG3756 knownG1492 lustG1939, exceptG1508 the lawG3551 had saidG3004, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937. {lust: or, concupiscence}
ButG1161 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, wroughtG2716 inG1722 meG1698 all manner ofG3956 concupiscenceG1939. ForG1063 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 sinG266 was deadG3498.
ForG1161 IG1473 was aliveG2198 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 onceG4218: butG1161 when the commandmentG1785 cameG2064, sinG266 revivedG326, andG1161 IG1473 diedG599.
AndG2532 the commandmentG1785, whichG3588 was ordained toG1519 lifeG2222, IG3427 foundG2147+G3778 to be untoG1519 deathG2288.
ForG1063 sinG266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG1785, deceivedG1818 meG3165, andG2532 byG1223 itG846 slewG615 me.
WhereforeG5620+G3303 the lawG3551 is holyG40, andG2532 the commandmentG1785 holyG40, andG2532 justG1342, andG2532 goodG18.
Was thenG3767 that which is goodG18 madeG1096 deathG2288 unto meG1698? God forbidG3361+G1096. ButG235 sinG266, thatG2443 it might appearG5316 sinG266, workingG2716 deathG2288 in meG3427 byG1223 that which is goodG18; thatG2443 sinG266 byG1223 the commandmentG1785 might becomeG1096 exceedingG2596+G5236 sinfulG268.
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the lawG3551 isG2076 spiritualG4152: butG1161 IG1473 amG1510 carnalG4559, soldG4097 underG5259 sinG266.
ForG1063 that whichG3739 I doG2716 I allowG1097 notG3756: forG1063 whatG3739 I wouldG2309, thatG5124 do IG4238 notG3756; butG235 whatG3739 I hateG3404, thatG5124 do IG4160. {allow: Gr. know}
IfG1487 thenG1161 I doG4160 thatG5124 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, I consentG4852 unto the lawG3551 thatG3754 it is goodG2570.
NowG3570 thenG1161 it is no moreG3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
ForG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 inG1722 meG1698 (that isG5123, inG1722 myG3450 fleshG4561,) dwellethG3611 noG3756 good thingG18: forG1063 to willG2309 is presentG3873 with meG3427; butG1161 how to performG2716 that which is goodG2570 I findG2147 notG3756.
ForG1063+G3739 the goodG18 that I wouldG2309 I doG4160 notG3756: butG235 the evilG2556 whichG3739 I wouldG2309 notG3756, thatG5124 I doG4238.
NowG1161 ifG1487+G3739 I doG4160 thatG5124 IG1473 wouldG2309 notG3756, it is no moreG2089+G3765 IG1473 that doG2716 itG846, butG235 sinG266 that dwellethG3611 inG1722 meG1698.
I findG2147 thenG686 a lawG3551, thatG3754, when IG1698 wouldG2309 doG4160 goodG2570, evilG2556 is presentG3873 with meG1698.
ForG1063 I delightG4913 in the lawG3551 of GodG2316 afterG2596 the inwardG2080 manG444:
ButG1161 I seeG991 anotherG2087 lawG3551 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196, warring againstG497 the lawG3551 of myG3450 mindG3563, andG2532 bringingG163 meG3165 into captivityG163 to the lawG3551 of sinG266 whichG3588 isG5607 inG1722 myG3450 membersG3196.
O wretchedG5005 manG444 that I amG1473! whoG5101 shall deliverG4506 meG3165 fromG1537 the bodyG4983 of thisG5127 deathG2288? {the body…: or, this body of death}
I thankG2168 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962. So thenG686+G3767 with the mindG3563 IG1473 myselfG846 serveG3303+G1398 the lawG3551 of GodG2316; butG1161 with the fleshG4561 the lawG3551 of sinG266.
There is thereforeG686 nowG3568 noG3762 condemnationG2631 to them which are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 the lawG3551 of the SpiritG4151 of lifeG2222 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 hath madeG1659 meG3165 freeG1659 fromG575 the lawG3551 of sinG266 andG2532 deathG2288.
ForG1063 what the lawG3551 could not doG102, inG1722 thatG3739 it was weakG770 throughG1223 the fleshG4561, GodG2316 sendingG3992 his ownG1438 SonG5207 inG1722 the likenessG3667 of sinfulG266 fleshG4561, andG2532 forG4012 sinG266, condemnedG2632 sinG266 inG1722 the fleshG4561: {for sin: or, by a sacrifice for sin}
ThatG2443 the righteousnessG1345 of the lawG3551 might be fulfilledG4137 inG1722 usG2254, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 they that areG5607 afterG2596 the fleshG4561 do mindG5426 the thingsG3588 of the fleshG4561; butG1161 they that are afterG2596 the SpiritG4151 the thingsG3588 of the SpiritG4151.
ForG1063 to beG5427 carnallyG4561 mindedG5427 is deathG2288; butG1161 to beG5427 spirituallyG4151 mindedG5427 is lifeG2222 andG2532 peaceG1515. {to be carnally…: Gr. the minding of the flesh} {to be spiritually…: Gr. the minding of the Spirit}
BecauseG1360 the carnalG4561 mindG5427 is enmityG2189 againstG1519 GodG2316: forG1063 it isG5293 notG3756 subjectG5293 to the lawG3551 of GodG2316, neitherG3761 indeedG1063 can beG1410. {the carnal…: Gr. the minding of the flesh}
So thenG1161 they that areG5607 inG1722 the fleshG4561 cannotG3756+G1410 pleaseG700 GodG2316.
ButG1161 yeG5210 areG2075 notG3756 inG1722 the fleshG4561, butG235 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, if so beG1512 that the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 dwellG3611 inG1722 youG5213. NowG1161 if any manG1536 haveG2192 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547, heG3778 isG2076 noneG3756 of hisG846.
AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 be inG1722 youG5213, the bodyG4983+G3303 is deadG3498 becauseG1223 of sinG266; butG1161 the SpiritG4151 is lifeG2222 becauseG1223 of righteousnessG1343.
ButG1161 ifG1487 the SpiritG4151 of him that raised upG1453 JesusG2424 fromG1537 the deadG3498 dwellG3611 inG1722 youG5213, he that raised upG1453 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498 shallG2227 alsoG2532 quickenG2227 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodiesG4983 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 that dwellethG1774 inG1722 youG5213. {by: or, because of}
ThereforeG686+G3767, brethrenG80, we areG2070 debtorsG3781, notG3756 to the fleshG4561, to liveG2198 afterG2596 the fleshG4561.
ForG1063 ifG1487 ye liveG2198 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, ye shallG3195 dieG599: butG1161 ifG1487 yeG2289 through the SpiritG4151 do mortifyG2289 the deedsG4234 of the bodyG4983, ye shall liveG2198.
ForG1063 as many asG3745 are ledG71 by the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, theyG3778 areG1526 the sonsG5207 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of bondageG1397 againG3825 toG1519 fearG5401; butG235 ye have receivedG2983 the SpiritG4151 of adoptionG5206, wherebyG1722+G3739 we cryG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962.
The SpiritG4151 itselfG846 beareth witnessG4828 with ourG2257 spiritG4151, thatG3754 we areG2070 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316:
AndG1161 ifG1487 childrenG5043, thenG2532 heirsG2818; heirsG2818 of GodG3303+G2316, andG1161 joint-heirsG4789 with ChristG5547; if so beG1512 that we suffer withG4841 him, thatG2443 we may beG4888 alsoG2532 glorified togetherG4888.
ForG1063 I reckonG3049 thatG3754 the sufferingsG3804 of this presentG3568 timeG2540 are notG3756 worthyG514 to be compared withG4314 the gloryG1391 which shallG3195 be revealedG601 inG1519 usG2248.
ForG1063 the earnest expectationG603 of the creatureG2937 waitethG553 for the manifestationG602 of the sonsG5207 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 the creatureG2937 was made subjectG5293 to vanityG3153, notG3756 willinglyG1635, butG235 by reasonG1223 of him who hath subjectedG5293 the same inG1909 hopeG1680,
BecauseG3754 the creatureG2937 itselfG846 alsoG2532 shall be deliveredG1659 fromG575 the bondageG1397 of corruptionG5356 intoG1519 the gloriousG1391 libertyG1657 of the childrenG5043 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the wholeG3956 creationG2937 groanethG4959 andG2532 travaileth in pain togetherG4944 untilG891 nowG3568. {the…: or, every creature}
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 they, butG235 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532, which haveG2192 the firstfruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 weG2249 ourselvesG846 groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, waitingG553 for the adoptionG5206, to wit, the redemptionG629 of ourG2257 bodyG4983.
ForG1063 we are savedG4982 by hopeG1680: butG1161 hopeG1680 that is seenG991 isG2076 notG3756 hopeG1680: forG1063 whatG3739 a manG5100 seethG991, whyG5101 doth heG1679 yetG2532 hope forG1679?
ButG1161 ifG1487 we hopeG1679 for thatG3739 we seeG991 notG3756, then do weG553 withG1223 patienceG5281 wait forG553 it.
LikewiseG5615 the SpiritG4151 alsoG2532 helpethG4878 ourG2257 infirmitiesG769: forG1063 we knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 we should pray forG4336 asG2526 we oughtG1163: butG235 the SpiritG4151 itselfG846 maketh intercessionG5241 forG5228 usG2257 with groaningsG4726 which cannot be utteredG215.
AndG1161 he that searchethG2045 the heartsG2588 knowethG1492 whatG5101 is the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151, becauseG3754 he maketh intercessionG1793 forG5228 the saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316. {because: or, that}
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.
ForG3754 whomG3739 he did foreknowG4267, heG4309 alsoG2532 did predestinateG4309 to be conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80.
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.
WhatG5101 shall weG2046 thenG3767 sayG2046 toG4314 these thingsG5023? IfG1487 GodG2316 be forG5228 usG2257, whoG5101 can be againstG2596 usG2257?
He thatG3739+G1065 sparedG5339 notG3756 his ownG2398 SonG5207, butG235 deliveredG3860 himG846 upG3860 forG5228 usG2257 allG3956, howG4459 shall heG5483 notG3780 withG4862 himG846 alsoG2532 freely giveG5483 usG2254 all thingsG3956?
WhoG5101 shall lay any thingG1458 to the chargeG2596 of God'sG2316 electG1588? It is GodG2316 that justifiethG1344.
WhoG5101 is he that condemnethG2632? It is ChristG5547 that diedG599, yeaG1161 ratherG3123+G2532, that is risen againG1453, whoG3739 isG2076 evenG2532 atG1722 the right handG1188 of GodG2316, whoG3739 alsoG2532 maketh intercessionG1793 forG5228 usG2257.
WhoG5101 shall separateG5563 usG2248 fromG575 the loveG26 of ChristG5547? shall tribulationG2347, orG2228 distressG4730, orG2228 persecutionG1375, orG2228 famineG3042, orG2228 nakednessG1132, orG2228 perilG2794, orG2228 swordG3162?
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, For thyG4675 sakeG1752 we are killedG2289 allG3650 the day longG2250; we are accountedG3049 asG5613 sheepG4263 for the slaughterG4967.
NayG235, inG1722 allG3956 these thingsG5125 we are more than conquerorsG5245 throughG1223 him that lovedG25 usG2248.
ForG1063 I am persuadedG3982, thatG3754 neitherG3777 deathG2288, norG3777 lifeG2222, norG3777 angelsG32, norG3777 principalitiesG746, norG3777 powersG1411, norG3777 things presentG1764, norG3777 things to comeG3195,
NorG3777 heightG5313, norG3777 depthG899, norG3777 anyG5100 otherG2087 creatureG2937, shall be ableG1410 to separateG5563 usG2248 fromG575 the loveG26 of GodG2316, which is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962.
Being justifiedG1344 freelyG1432 by hisG846 graceG5485 throughG1223 the redemptionG629 that is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
Saying, BlessedG3107 are they whoseG3739 iniquitiesG458 are forgivenG863, andG2532 whoseG3739 sinsG266 are coveredG1943.
ForG1063 ifG1487, when we wereG5607 enemiesG2190, we were reconciledG2644 to GodG2316 byG1223 the deathG2288 of hisG846 SonG5207, muchG4183 moreG3123, being reconciledG2644, we shall be savedG4982 byG1722 hisG846 lifeG2222.
