Now as they were making their heartsH3820 merryH3190, behold, the menH582 of the cityH5892, certainH582 sonsH1121 of BelialH1100, besetH5437 the houseH1004 round aboutH5437, and beatH1849 at the doorH1817, and spakeH559 to the masterH1167 of the houseH1004, the oldH2205 manH376, sayingH559, Bring forthH3318 the manH376 that cameH935 into thine houseH1004, that we may knowH3045 him.
And the manH376, the masterH1167 of the houseH1004, went outH3318 unto them, and saidH559 unto them, NayH408, my brethrenH251, nay, I pray you, do not so wickedlyH7489; seeingH310 that this manH376 is comeH935 into mine houseH1004, doH6213 not this follyH5039.
Behold, here is my daughterH1323 a maidenH1330, and his concubineH6370; them I will bring outH3318 now, and humbleH6031 ye them, and doH6213 with them what seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto you: but unto this manH376 doH6213 not soH2063 vileH5039 a thingH1697. {so vile…: Heb. the matter of this folly}
But the menH582 wouldH14 not hearkenH8085 to him: so the manH376 tookH2388 his concubineH6370, and broughtH3318 her forthH2351 unto them; and they knewH3045 her, and abusedH5953 her all the nightH3915 until the morningH1242: and when the dayH7837 began to springH5927, they let her goH7971.
Then cameH935 the womanH802 in the dawningH6437 of the dayH1242, and fell downH5307 at the doorH6607 of the man'sH376 houseH1004 where her lordH113 was, till it was lightH216.
AndG2532 deliveredG4506 justG1342 LotG3091, vexedG2669 withG5259 the filthyG766 conversationG391 ofG1722 the wickedG113:
But before they lay downH7901, the menH582 of the cityH5892, even the menH582 of SodomH5467, compassedH5437 the houseH1004 roundH5437, both oldH2205 and youngH5288, all the peopleH5971 from every quarterH7097:
And they calledH7121 unto LotH3876, and saidH559 unto him, Where are the menH582 which came inH935 to thee this nightH3915? bring them outH3318 unto us, that we may knowH3045 them.
And there cameH935 twoH8147 angelsH4397 to SodomH5467 at evenH6153; and LotH3876 satH3427 in the gateH8179 of SodomH5467: and LotH3876 seeingH7200 them rose upH6965 to meetH7125 them; and he bowedH7812 himself with his faceH639 toward the groundH776;
And he saidH559, Behold now, my lordsH113, turn inH5493, I pray you, into your servant'sH5650 houseH1004, and tarry all nightH3885, and washH7364 your feetH7272, and ye shall rise up earlyH7925, and goH1980 on your waysH1870. And they saidH559, Nay; but we will abideH3885 in the streetH7339 all nightH3885.
And he pressedH6484 upon them greatlyH3966; and they turned inH5493 unto him, and enteredH935 into his houseH1004; and he madeH6213 them a feastH4960, and did bakeH644 unleavened breadH4682, and they did eatH398.
But before they lay downH7901, the menH582 of the cityH5892, even the menH582 of SodomH5467, compassedH5437 the houseH1004 roundH5437, both oldH2205 and youngH5288, all the peopleH5971 from every quarterH7097:
And they calledH7121 unto LotH3876, and saidH559 unto him, Where are the menH582 which came inH935 to thee this nightH3915? bring them outH3318 unto us, that we may knowH3045 them.
And LotH3876 went outH3318 at the doorH6607 unto them, and shutH5462 the doorH1817 after himH310,
And saidH559, I pray you, brethrenH251, do not so wickedlyH7489.
Behold now, I have twoH8147 daughtersH1323 which have not knownH3045 manH376; let me, I pray you, bring them outH3318 unto you, and doH6213 ye to them as is goodH2896 in your eyesH5869: only unto theseH411 menH582 doH6213 nothingH408+H1697; for therefore cameH935 they under the shadowH6738 of my roofH6982.
And they saidH559, StandH5066 backH1973. And they saidH559 again, This oneH259 fellow came inH935 to sojournH1481, and he will needsH8199 be a judgeH8199: now will we deal worseH7489 with thee, than with them. And they pressedH6484 soreH3966 upon the manH376, even LotH3876, and came nearH5066 to breakH7665 the doorH1817.
But the menH582 put forthH7971 their handH3027, and pulledH935 LotH3876 into the houseH1004 to them, and shutH5462 to the doorH1817.
And they smoteH5221 the menH582 that were at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004 with blindnessH5575, both smallH6996 and greatH1419: so that they weariedH3811 themselves to findH4672 the doorH6607.
And the menH582 saidH559 unto LotH3876, Hast thou hereH6311 anyH4310 besides? son in lawH2860, and thy sonsH1121, and thy daughtersH1323, and whatsoeverH834 thou hast in the cityH5892, bring them outH3318 of this placeH4725:
For weH587 will destroyH7843+H853 this placeH4725, because the cry of themH6818 is waxen greatH1431 beforeH854 the faceH6440 of the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 us to destroyH7843 it.
And LotH3876 went outH3318, and spakeH1696 unto his sons in lawH2860, which marriedH3947 his daughtersH1323, and saidH559, UpH6965, get you outH3318 of this placeH4725; for the LORDH3068 will destroyH7843 this cityH5892. But he seemed as one that mockedH6711 untoH5869 his sons in lawH2860.
And whenH3644 the morningH7837 aroseH5927, then the angelsH4397 hastenedH213 LotH3876, sayingH559, AriseH6965, takeH3947 thy wifeH802, and thy twoH8147 daughtersH1323, which are hereH4672; lest thou be consumedH5595 in the iniquityH5771 of the cityH5892. {are here: Heb. are found} {iniquity: or, punishment}
And while he lingeredH4102, the menH582 laid holdH2388 upon his handH3027, and upon the handH3027 of his wifeH802, and upon the handH3027 of his twoH8147 daughtersH1323; the LORDH3068 being mercifulH2551 unto him: and they brought him forthH3318, and set himH3240 withoutH2351 the cityH5892.
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forthH3318 abroadH2351, that he saidH559, EscapeH4422 forH5921 thy lifeH5315; lookH5027 not behind theeH310, neither stayH5975 thou in all the plainH3603; escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lest thou be consumedH5595.
And LotH3876 saidH559 unto them, Oh, not so, my LordH113:
Behold now, thy servantH5650 hath foundH4672 graceH2580 in thy sightH5869, and thou hast magnifiedH1431 thy mercyH2617, which thou hast shewedH6213 unto meH5978 in savingH2421 my lifeH5315; and I cannotH3201 escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lest some evilH7451 takeH1692 me, and I dieH4191:
Behold now, this cityH5892 is nearH7138 to fleeH5127 unto, and itH1931 is a little oneH4705: Oh, let me escapeH4422 thither, (is it not a little oneH4705?) and my soulH5315 shall liveH2421.
And he saidH559 unto him, SeeH2009, I have acceptedH5375 theeH6440 concerning this thingH1697 also, that I will not overthrowH2015 this cityH5892, for the whichH834 thou hast spokenH1696. {thee: Heb. thy face}
HasteH4116 thee, escapeH4422 thither; for I cannotH3201 doH6213 any thingH1697 till thou be comeH935 thither. Therefore the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 ZoarH6820. {Zoar: that is, Little}
The sunH8121 was risenH3318 upon the earthH776 when LotH3876 enteredH935 into ZoarH6820. {risen: Heb. gone forth}
Then the LORDH3068 rainedH4305 upon SodomH5467 and upon GomorrahH6017 brimstoneH1614 and fireH784 from the LORDH3068 out of heavenH8064;
And he overthrewH2015 thoseH411 citiesH5892, and all the plainH3603, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the citiesH5892, and that which grewH6780 upon the groundH127.
But his wifeH802 looked backH5027 from behind himH310, and she became a pillarH5333 of saltH4417.
And AbrahamH85 gat up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 to the placeH4725 where he stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068:
And he lookedH8259 towardH6440 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and towardH6440 all the landH776 of the plainH3603, and beheldH7200, and, lo, the smokeH7008 of the countryH776 went upH5927 as the smokeH7008 of a furnaceH3536.
And it came to pass, when GodH430 destroyedH7843 the citiesH5892 of the plainH3603, that GodH430 rememberedH2142 AbrahamH85, and sentH7971 LotH3876 out of the midstH8432 of the overthrowH2018, when he overthrewH2015 the citiesH5892 in the whichH2004 LotH3876 dweltH3427.
And LotH3876 went upH5927 out of ZoarH6820, and dweltH3427 in the mountainH2022, and his twoH8147 daughtersH1323 with him; for he fearedH3372 to dwellH3427 in ZoarH6820: and he dweltH3427 in a caveH4631, he and his twoH8147 daughtersH1323.
And the firstbornH1067 saidH559 unto the youngerH6810, Our fatherH1 is oldH2204, and there is not a manH376 in the earthH776 to come inH935 unto us after the mannerH1870 of all the earthH776:
ComeH3212, let us makeH8248 our fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196, and we will lieH7901 with him, that we may preserveH2421 seedH2233 of our fatherH1.
And they madeH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 that nightH3915: and the firstbornH1067 went inH935, and layH7901 with her fatherH1; and he perceivedH3045 not when she lay downH7901, nor when she aroseH6965.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, that the firstbornH1067 saidH559 unto the youngerH6810, Behold, I layH7901 yesternightH570 with my fatherH1: let us make him drinkH8248 wineH3196 this nightH3915 also; and go thou inH935, and lieH7901 with him, that we may preserveH2421 seedH2233 of our fatherH1.
And they madeH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 thatH1931 nightH3915 also: and the youngerH6810 aroseH6965, and layH7901 with him; and he perceivedH3045 not when she lay downH7901, nor when she aroseH6965.
Thus were bothH8147 the daughtersH1323 of LotH3876 with childH2029 by their fatherH1.
And the firstbornH1067 bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 MoabH4124: the sameH1931 is the fatherH1 of the MoabitesH4124 unto this dayH3117.
And the youngerH6810, she also bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 BenammiH1151: the same is the fatherH1 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 unto this dayH3117.
But the menH582 put forthH7971 their handH3027, and pulledH935 LotH3876 into the houseH1004 to them, and shutH5462 to the doorH1817.
And they smoteH5221 the menH582 that were at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004 with blindnessH5575, both smallH6996 and greatH1419: so that they weariedH3811 themselves to findH4672 the doorH6607.
I have seenH7200 also in the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 an horrible thingH8186: they commit adulteryH5003, and walkH1980 in liesH8267: they strengthenH2388 also the handsH3027 of evildoersH7489, that noneH376 doth returnH7725 from his wickednessH7451: they are all of them unto me as SodomH5467, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof as GomorrahH6017. {an…: or, filthiness}
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}
ThisG5124 knowG1097 alsoG1161, thatG3754 inG1722 the lastG2078 daysG2250 perilousG5467 timesG2540 shall comeG1764.
ForG1063 menG444 shall beG2071 lovers of their own selvesG5367, covetousG5366, boastersG213, proudG5244, blasphemersG989, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118, unthankfulG884, unholyG462,
Without natural affectionG794, trucebreakersG786, false accusersG1228, incontinentG193, fierceG434, despisers of those that are goodG865, {false…: or, one who foments strife}
TraitorsG4273, headyG4312, highmindedG5187, lovers of pleasuresG5369 moreG3123 thanG2228 lovers of GodG5377;
HavingG2192 a formG3446 of godlinessG2150, butG1161 denyingG720 the powerG1411 thereofG846: fromG2532 suchG5128 turn awayG665.
ThisG5124 knowG1097 alsoG1161, thatG3754 inG1722 the lastG2078 daysG2250 perilousG5467 timesG2540 shall comeG1764.

PaulG3972, a servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652, separatedG873 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316,
(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.
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,

TraitorsG4273, headyG4312, highmindedG5187, lovers of pleasuresG5369 moreG3123 thanG2228 lovers of GodG5377;
HavingG2192 a formG3446 of godlinessG2150, butG1161 denyingG720 the powerG1411 thereofG846: fromG2532 suchG5128 turn awayG665.
ForG1063 ofG1537 this sortG5130 are theyG1526 which creepG1744 intoG1519 housesG3614, andG2532 lead captiveG162 silly womenG1133 ladenG4987 with sinsG266, led awayG71 with diversG4164 lustsG1939,
EverG3842 learningG3129, andG2532 neverG3368 ableG1410 to comeG2064 toG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of the truthG225.
NowG1161 asG5158 JannesG2389 andG2532 JambresG2387 withstoodG436 MosesG3475, soG3779 doG436 theseG3778 alsoG2532 resistG436 the truthG225: menG444 of corruptG2704 mindsG3563, reprobateG96 concerningG4012 the faithG4102. {reprobate: or, of no judgment} {reprobate: or, of no judgment}
ButG235 they shall proceedG4298 noG3756 furtherG1909+G4119: forG1063 theirG846 follyG454 shall beG2071 manifestG1552 unto allG3956 men, asG5613 theirsG1565 alsoG2532 wasG1096.

YeaG1161, andG2532 allG3956 that willG2309 liveG2198 godlyG2153 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 shall suffer persecutionG1377.
ButG1161 evilG4190 menG444 andG2532 seducersG1114 shall waxG4298 worse and worseG1909+G5501, deceivingG4105, andG2532 being deceivedG4105.

PaulG3972, a servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652, separatedG873 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316,
(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.
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}
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.
IfG1437 we confessG3670 ourG2257 sinsG266, he isG2076 faithfulG4103 andG2532 justG1342 toG2443 forgiveG863 usG2254 our sinsG266, andG2532 to cleanseG2511 usG2248 fromG575 allG3956 unrighteousnessG93.
Behold now, I have twoH8147 daughtersH1323 which have not knownH3045 manH376; let me, I pray you, bring them outH3318 unto you, and doH6213 ye to them as is goodH2896 in your eyesH5869: only unto theseH411 menH582 doH6213 nothingH408+H1697; for therefore cameH935 they under the shadowH6738 of my roofH6982.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
Having the understandingG1271 darkenedG4654, beingG5607 alienatedG526 from the lifeG2222 of GodG2316 throughG1223 the ignoranceG52 that isG5607 inG1722 themG846, becauseG1223 of the blindnessG4457 of theirG846 heartG2588: {blindness: or, hardness}
WhoG3748 being past feelingG524 have givenG3860 themselvesG1438 overG3860 unto lasciviousnessG766, toG1519 workG2039 allG3956 uncleannessG167 withG1722 greedinessG4124.
WhereinG1722+G3739 they think it strangeG3579 that yeG5216 runG4936 notG3361 with them toG1519 the sameG846 excessG401 of riotG810, speaking evil ofG987 you:
IG1473 thereforeG3767, the prisonerG1198 ofG1722 the LordG2962, beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye walkG4043 worthyG516 of the vocationG2821 wherewithG3739 ye are calledG2564, {of the Lord: or, in the Lord}
WithG3326 allG3956 lowlinessG5012 andG2532 meeknessG4236, withG3326 longsufferingG3115, forbearingG430 one anotherG240 inG1722 loveG26;
EndeavouringG4704 to keepG5083 the unityG1775 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 the bondG4886 of peaceG1515.
There is oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG2532 oneG1520 SpiritG4151, even asG2531+G2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG3391 hopeG1680 of yourG5216 callingG2821;
OneG1520 LordG2962, oneG1520 faithG4102, oneG3391 baptismG908,
OneG1520 GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of allG3956, whoG3588 is aboveG1909 allG3956, andG2532 throughG1223 allG3956, andG2532 inG1722 youG5213 allG3956.
ButG1161 unto everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257 is givenG1325 graceG5485 according toG2596 the measureG3358 of the giftG1431 of ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, When he ascendedG305 upG1519 on highG5311, he led captivityG162 captiveG161, andG2532 gaveG1325 giftsG1390 unto menG444. {captivity…: or, a multitude of captives}
(NowG1161 that he ascendedG305, whatG5101 is itG2076 butG1508 thatG3754 heG2597 alsoG2532 descendedG2597 firstG4412 intoG1519 the lowerG2737 partsG3313 of the earthG1093?
HeG846 that descendedG2597 isG2076 the same alsoG2532 that ascended upG305 far aboveG5231 allG3956 heavensG3772, thatG2443 he might fillG4137 all thingsG3956.) {fill: or, fulfil}
AndG2532 heG846 gaveG1325 someG3303, apostlesG652; andG1161 some, prophetsG4396; andG1161 some, evangelistsG2099; andG1161 some, pastorsG4166 andG2532 teachersG1320;
ForG4314 the perfectingG2677 of the saintsG40, forG1519 the workG2041 of the ministryG1248, forG1519 the edifyingG3619 of the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547:
TillG3360 we allG3956 comeG2658 inG1519 the unityG1775 of the faithG4102, andG2532 of the knowledgeG1922 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, untoG1519 a perfectG5046 manG435, untoG1519 the measureG3358 of the statureG2244 of the fulnessG4138 of ChristG5547: {in: or, into} {stature: or, age}
ThatG2443 we henceforth beG5600 no moreG3371 childrenG3516, tossed to and froG2831, andG2532 carried about withG4064 everyG3956 windG417 of doctrineG1319, byG1722 the sleightG2940 of menG444, and cunning craftinessG1722+G3834, wherebyG4314 they lie in waitG3180 to deceiveG4106;
ButG1161 speaking the truthG226 inG1722 loveG26, may grow upG837 intoG1519 himG846 in all thingsG3956, whichG3739 isG2076 the headG2776, even ChristG5547: {speaking…: or, being sincere}
FromG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 bodyG4983 fitly joined togetherG4883 andG2532 compactedG4822 byG1223 that which everyG3956 jointG860 suppliethG2024, accordingG2596 to the effectual workingG1753 inG1722 the measureG3358 of everyG1538 partG1520+G3313, makethG4160 increaseG838 of the bodyG4983 untoG1519 the edifyingG3619 of itselfG1438 inG1722 loveG26.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
Having the understandingG1271 darkenedG4654, beingG5607 alienatedG526 from the lifeG2222 of GodG2316 throughG1223 the ignoranceG52 that isG5607 inG1722 themG846, becauseG1223 of the blindnessG4457 of theirG846 heartG2588: {blindness: or, hardness}
WhoG3748 being past feelingG524 have givenG3860 themselvesG1438 overG3860 unto lasciviousnessG766, toG1519 workG2039 allG3956 uncleannessG167 withG1722 greedinessG4124.
ButG1161 yeG5210 haveG3129 notG3756 soG3779 learnedG3129 ChristG5547;
If so be thatG1489 ye have heardG191 himG846, andG2532 have been taughtG1321 byG1722 himG846, asG2531 the truthG225 isG2076 inG1722 JesusG2424:
That yeG5209 put offG659 concerningG2596 the formerG4387 conversationG391 the oldG3820 manG444, whichG3588 is corruptG5351 accordingG2596 to the deceitfulG539 lustsG1939;
AndG1161 be renewedG365 in the spiritG4151 of yourG5216 mindG3563;
AndG2532 that ye put onG1746 the newG2537 manG444, whichG3588 afterG2596 GodG2316 is createdG2936 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 trueG225 holinessG3742. {true…: or, holiness of truth}
WhereforeG1352 putting awayG659 lyingG5579, speakG2980 every manG1538 truthG225 withG3326 hisG846 neighbourG4139: forG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
Be ye angryG3710, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361: letG1931 notG3361 the sunG2246 go downG1931 uponG1909 yourG5216 wrathG3950:
NeitherG3383 giveG1325 placeG5117 to the devilG1228.
LetG2813 him that stoleG2813 stealG2813 no moreG3371: butG1161 ratherG3123 let him labourG2872, workingG2038 with his handsG5495 the thing which is goodG18, thatG2443 he may haveG2192 to giveG3330 to him that needethG5532+G2192. {to give: or, to distribute}
LetG4550 noG3361+G3956 corruptG4550 communicationG3056 proceedG1607 out ofG1537 yourG5216 mouthG4750, butG235 that whichG1536 is goodG18 toG4314 the useG5532 of edifyingG3619, thatG2443 it may ministerG1325 graceG5485 unto the hearersG191. {to…: or, to edify profitably}
AndG2532 grieveG3076 notG3361 the holyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, wherebyG1722+G3739 ye are sealedG4972 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
LetG142 allG3956 bitternessG4088, andG2532 wrathG2372, andG2532 angerG3709, andG2532 clamourG2906, andG2532 evil speakingG988, be put awayG142 fromG575 youG5216, withG4862 allG3956 maliceG2549:
AndG1161 beG1096 ye kindG5543 one to anotherG1519+G240, tenderheartedG2155, forgivingG5483 one anotherG1438, even asG2531+G2532 GodG2316 forG1722 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1722 hath forgivenG5483 youG5213.
ButG1161 yeG5210 haveG3129 notG3756 soG3779 learnedG3129 ChristG5547;
If so be thatG1489 ye have heardG191 himG846, andG2532 have been taughtG1321 byG1722 himG846, asG2531 the truthG225 isG2076 inG1722 JesusG2424:
That yeG5209 put offG659 concerningG2596 the formerG4387 conversationG391 the oldG3820 manG444, whichG3588 is corruptG5351 accordingG2596 to the deceitfulG539 lustsG1939;
AndG1161 be renewedG365 in the spiritG4151 of yourG5216 mindG3563;
AndG2532 that ye put onG1746 the newG2537 manG444, whichG3588 afterG2596 GodG2316 is createdG2936 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 trueG225 holinessG3742. {true…: or, holiness of truth}
AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darknessG4655, butG1161 ratherG3123+G2532 reproveG1651 them.
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
