KJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G1063 For G846 yourselves G80 , brethren G1492 , know [G5758] G2257 our G1529 entrance in G4314 unto G5209 you G3754 , that G1096 it was [G5754] G3756 not G2756 in vain:

2 G235 But G2532 even G4310 after that we had suffered before [G5631] G2532 , and G5195 were shamefully entreated [G5685] G2531 , as G1492 ye know [G5758] G1722 , at G5375 Philippi G3955 , we were bold [G5662] G1722 in G2257 our G2316 God G2980 to speak [G5658] G4314 unto G5209 you G2098 the gospel G2316 of God G1722 with G4183 much G73 contention.

3 G1063 For G2257 our G3874 exhortation G3756 was not G1537 of G4106 deceit G3761 , nor G1537 of G167 uncleanness G3777 , nor G1722 in G1388 guile:

4 G235 But G2531 as G1381 we were allowed [G5769] G5259 of G2316 God G4100 to be put in trust [G5683] G2098 with the gospel G3779 , even so G2980 we speak [G5719] G3756 ; not G5613 as G700 pleasing [G5723] G444 men G235 , but G2316 God G1381 , which trieth [G5723] G2257 our G2588 hearts.

5 G1063 For G3777 neither G4218 at any time G1096 used we [G5675] G2850 flattering G1722 words G3056 G2531 , as G1492 ye know [G5758] G3777 , nor G1722 a cloke G4392 G4124 of covetousness G2316 ; God G3144 is witness:

6 G3777 Nor G1537 of G444 men G2212 sought [G5723] G1391 we glory G3777 , neither G575 of G5216 you G3777 , nor G575 yet of G243 others G1410 , when we might [G5740] G1511 have been [G5750] G1722 burdensome G922 G5613 , as G652 the apostles G5547 of Christ.

7 G235 But G1096 we were [G5675] G2261 gentle G1722 among G3319 G5216 you G5613 , even as G5162 a nurse G302 cherisheth G2282 [G5725] G1438 her G5043 children:

8 G3779 So G2442 being affectionately desirous [G5734] G5216 of you G2106 , we were willing [G5707] G3330 to have imparted [G5629] G5213 unto you G3756 , not G2098 the gospel G2316 of God G3440 only G235 , but G2532 also G1438 our own G5590 souls G1360 , because G1096 ye were [G5769] G27 dear G2254 unto us.

9 G1063 For G3421 ye remember [G5719] G80 , brethren G2257 , our G2873 labour G2532 and G3449 travail G1063 : for G2038 labouring [G5740] G3571 night G2532 and G2250 day G4314 , because G1912 we would G3361 not G1912 be chargeable [G5658] G5100 unto any G5216 of you G2784 , we preached [G5656] G1519 unto G5209 you G2098 the gospel G2316 of God.

10 G5210 Ye G3144 are witnesses G2532 , and G2316 God G5613 also, how G3743 holily G2532 and G1346 justly G2532 and G274 unblameably G1096 we behaved ourselves [G5675] G5213 among you G4100 that believe [G5723] :

11 G2509 As G1492 ye know [G5758] G5613 how G3870 we exhorted [G5723] G2532 and G3888 comforted [G5740] G3140 and charged [G5734] G1538 every G1520 one G5209 of you G5216 G5613 , as G3962 a father G1438 doth his G5043 children,

12 G2532 G1519 That G5209 ye G4043 would walk [G5658] G516 worthy G2316 of God G2564 , who hath called [G5723] G5209 you G1519 unto G1438 his G932 kingdom G2532 and G1391 glory.

13 G5124 For this G1223 cause G2532 also G2168 thank [G5719] G2249 we G2316 God G89 without ceasing G3754 , because G3880 , when ye received [G5631] G3056 the word G2316 of God G189 which ye heard G3844 of G2257 us G1209 , ye received [G5662] G3756 it not G3056 as the word G444 of men G235 , but G2531 as G2076 it is [G5748] G230 in truth G3056 , the word G2316 of God G3739 , which G1754 effectually worketh [G5731] G2532 also G1722 in G5213 you G4100 that believe [G5723] .

14 G1063 For G5210 ye G80 , brethren G1096 , became [G5675] G3402 followers G1577 of the churches G2316 of God G3588 which G1722 in G2449 Judaea G5607 are [G5752] G1722 in G5547 Christ G2424 Jesus G3754 : for G5210 ye G2532 also G3958 have suffered [G5627] G5024 like things G5259 of G2398 your own G4853 countrymen G2532 , even G2531 as G846 they have G5259 of G2453 the Jews:

15 G2532 Who both G615 killed [G5660] G2962 the Lord G2424 Jesus G2532 , and G2398 their own G4396 prophets G2532 , and G1559 have persecuted [G5660] G2248 us G2532 ; and G700 they please [G5723] G3361 not G2316 God G2532 , and G1727 are contrary G3956 to all G444 men:

16 G2967 Forbidding [G5723] G2248 us G2980 to speak [G5658] G1484 to the Gentiles G2443 that G4982 they might be saved [G5686] G1519 , to G378 fill up [G5658] G846 their G266 sins G3842 alway G1161 : for G3709 the wrath G5348 is come [G5656] G1909 upon G846 them G1519 to G5056 the uttermost.

17 G1161 But G2249 we G80 , brethren G642 , being taken [G5685] G575 from G5216 you G4314 for G5610 a short G2540 time G4383 in presence G3756 , not G2588 in heart G4704 , endeavoured [G5656] G4056 the more abundantly G1492 to see [G5629] G5216 your G4383 face G1722 with G4183 great G1939 desire.

18 G1352 Wherefore G2309 we would [G5656] G2064 have come [G5629] G4314 unto G5209 you G3303 , even G1473 I G3972 Paul G2532 , once G530 G2532 and G1364 again G2532 ; but G4567 Satan G1465 hindered [G5656] G2248 us.

19 G1063 For G5101 what G2257 is our G1680 hope G2228 , or G5479 joy G2228 , or G4735 crown G2746 of rejoicing G2228 ? G3780 Are not G2532 even G5210 ye G1715 in the presence G2257 of our G2962 Lord G2424 Jesus G5547 Christ G1722 at G846 his G3952 coming?

20 G1063 For G5210 ye G2075 are [G5748] G2257 our G1391 glory G2532 and G5479 joy.
