1 Timothy 2 Cross References - Godbey

¹ Moreover, first of all things, I exhort you, that prayers, supplications, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made in behalf of all men; ² for kings and all who are in authority; in order that we may lead a peaceable and quiet life in all godliness and honesty. ³ This is beautiful and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; ⁴ who wishes all men to be saved, and to come to the perfect knowledge of the truth. ⁵ For there is one God, and there is also one mediator of God and men, the man, Christ Jesus, ⁶ the one having given himself a ransom for all, a testimony in due time; ⁷ in which I have been placed a herald and an apostle I speak the truth, I lie not, a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and in truth. ⁸ Therefore I wish that men in every place would all pray, holding up holy hands, without wrath and doubting: ⁹ likewise that the women adorn themselves in comely apparel, with modesty and prudence; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly garments; ¹⁰ but whatsoever becomes women professing godliness, through good works. ¹¹ Let a woman learn in silence in all submission; ¹² but I do not permit a woman to dictate or usurp authority over her husband, but to be in silence. ¹³ For Adam was first created, then Eve. ¹⁴ And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression; ¹⁵ but she shall be saved through child-bearing, if they may abide in faith and in divine love and in sanctification with prudence.

²¹ she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for He will save His people from their sins. ²² And all this took place in order that the Word, having been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, might be fulfilled, saying; ²³ Behold, the virgin shall have gestation and bring forth a son, and they will call his name Emmanuel, which is interpreted, God is with us.

²³ Behold, the virgin shall have gestation and bring forth a son, and they will call his name Emmanuel, which is interpreted, God is with us. ²⁴ And Joseph rising from sleep did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; ²⁵ and he took his wife to himself, and did not know her until she brought forth a son, and called his name Jesus.

⁴⁴ But I say unto you, Love your enemies with a divine love, bless those who curse you and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you:

⁹ Therefore pray ye after this manner: Our Father who art in the heavens, let thy name be hallowed: ¹⁰ let thy kingdom come: let thy will be done, as in heaven, even so upon earth:

¹² and forgive us our debts, as we have also forgiven our debtors:

¹⁴ For if you may not forgive the people their trespasses, your heavenly Father will not forgive you: ¹⁵ and if you do not forgive the people, your Father will not forgive you your trespasses.

²⁸ And why are you solicitous concerning raiment? Know the lilies of the field how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin. ²⁹ But I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these.

⁸ But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold those wearing soft raiment are in the houses of the kings.

²⁸ as the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His soul a ransom for many.

¹⁹ Going, disciple all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost:

⁴⁵ for the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His soul a ransom for many.

²³ Truly I say unto you, That whosoever may say to this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and may not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says does take place; it shall be unto him. ²⁴ Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever you pray for and ask, believe that you just now received them, and they shall be unto you. ²⁵ And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have aught against any one; in order that your Father who is in the heavens may forgive you your trespasses.

²⁹ And Jesus responded to him, The first commandment of all; Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, is one Lord: ³⁰ and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment. ³¹ And the second is like unto it; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these. ³² And the scribes said to Him, Truly, Teacher; thou hast spoken in truth that He is One; and there is no other besides Him. ³³ And love Him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to love thy neighbor as thyself is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

¹⁶ In this I also exercise, to always have a conscience void of offense toward God and men.

²⁰ but first to those in Damascus, and also in Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and to the Gentiles, I was preaching that they should repent and turn to God, doing things worthy of repentance.

⁸ In the first place, indeed, I praise my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. ⁹ For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how I unceasingly make mention of you always in my prayer;

²⁹ Whether is he the God of the Jews only? is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yea, also of the Gentiles: ³⁰ truly there is one God, who will justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith.

⁶ For we being yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly:

¹⁷ But thanks be unto God, that whereas ye were servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the type of teaching into which ye were delivered:

¹ I speak the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

¹² For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: for the same is Lord of all, rich unto all that call on him.

¹² For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: for the same is Lord of all, rich unto all that call on him. ¹³ For every one who may call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. ¹⁴ Then how can they call on him on whom they have not believed? and how can they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

¹⁴ Then how can they call on him on whom they have not believed? and how can they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? ¹⁵ And how can they preach, unless they may be sent forth? as has been written, How beautiful are the feet of those, who preach the gospel of good things!

¹³ But I speak to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle of the Gentiles, I glorify my ministry:

¹ I exhort you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, your reasonable service: ² and he not fashioned after this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

¹⁸ If possible, so far as it is within your power, living in peace with all men;

¹ Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority except that which is from God; and the existing authorities have been ordained of God. ² So the one resisting the authority, antagonizes the ordinance of God: and those antagonizing shall receive to themselves judgment. ³ For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Whether do you not wish to fear the authority? do the good, and you shall have praise from it: ⁴ for he is the minister of God for you for good. But if you do evil, fear; for he bears not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, executing judgment unto wrath unto the one doing evil. ⁵ Therefore it is necessary to submit, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience. ⁶ For on account of this also pay tribute; for they are the ministers of God, attending to this very thing. ⁷ Give to all their dues: custom to whom custom is due; tribute to whom tribute is due; fear to whom fear is due; honor to whom honor is due.

¹⁸ For in this the one serving Christ is acceptable to God, and approved unto men.

¹⁶ that I should be the minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles may be well received, having been sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

²⁶ but having now indeed been made manifest, through the prophetical scriptures, and having been made known to all the Gentiles, according to the commandment of the eternal God, unto the obedience of faith;

⁶ as the testimony of Christ is confirmed in you;

⁷ But I wish that all men were even as myself; but each one has his own gift from God, some one, and some another.

⁴ Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God except one.

⁶ but there is to us one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we in him.

³ But I wish you to know, that Christ is the head of every man; and the man is the head of the woman, and God is the head of Christ.

⁸ For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man; ⁹ for man indeed was not created on account of the woman; but the woman on account of the man.

³⁴ let the women be silent in the churches: for it is not permitted to them to talk; but let them be subordinate, as the law also says.

³⁴ let the women be silent in the churches: for it is not permitted to them to talk; but let them be subordinate, as the law also says. ³⁵ But if they wish to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is disgraceful for a woman to talk in church.

³ For I delivered unto you in the first place that which I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

⁴⁵ As indeed it has been written; The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last man Adam, a life-creating spirit. ⁴⁶ But that which is spiritual was not first, but that which is animal; afterward that which is spiritual. ⁴⁷ The first man was from the earth, earthy: the second man from heaven.

¹⁴ For the love of Christ constrains us; having judged this, that one died for all; then were all dead; ¹⁵ and he died for all, in order that those living may not live unto themselves, but unto him who died for them and is risen.

¹⁷ So if any one is in Christ, he is a new creature: old things have passed away; behold, they have become new. ¹⁸ All things are from God, the one having reconciled us unto himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, ¹⁹ as that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their transgressions to them, even having placed in us the word of reconciliation.

²¹ He made him sin in our behalf, who knew no sin; in order that we may become the righteousness of God in him.

⁶ that we should exhort Titus, that as he formerly began it, he may indeed also complete this grace unto you.

³ but I fear, lest, as the serpent beguiled Eve by his craftiness, your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity which is in Christ.

³¹ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one being blessed forever, knows that I lie not.

¹⁶ to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:

²⁰ Which things moreover I write unto you, behold, before God, that I lie not.

⁹ and having known the grace of God which was given unto me, James and Cephas and John, who seem to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;

¹⁶ knowing that a man is not justified by works of law, but through the faith of Christ Jesus, and we have believed into Christ Jesus, in order that we may be justified by faith of Christ, and not by works of law, because by works of law no flesh shall be justified.

⁹ Therefore those who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

²⁰ A mediator is not of one; but God is one.

⁴ but when the fulness of time came, God sent forth his own Son, having been born of a woman, having been born under law,

⁴ but when the fulness of time came, God sent forth his own Son, having been born of a woman, having been born under law, ⁵ in order that he might redeem those under law, that we might receive the adoption of sonship.

⁷ in whom we have redemption through his blood, the remission of transgressions, according to the riches of his grace,

⁹ having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his own good pleasure, which he purposed in himself ¹⁰ in the economy of the fulness of the times, to rehead all things in Christ, those in the heavens, and those upon the earth; in him,

¹⁷ in order that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the glory, may grant unto you the spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the perfect knowledge of himself;

¹⁰ for we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God before prepared that we should walk in them.

⁵ which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets through the Spirit;

⁷ whose minister I became, according to the gift of the grace of God which was given unto me; according to the working of his power. ⁸ To me, the least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

¹³ Therefore I ask that you faint not in my tribulations in your behalf, which is your glory.

⁶ one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and above you all, and in all.

² and walk about in divine love, as Christ also loved you, and gave himself for you, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of sweet savor.

⁹ (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth), ¹⁰ proving what is acceptable to the Lord;

²⁰ always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

²² Wives, be submissive to your own husbands, as to the Lord, ²³ because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is also the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body. ²⁴ But as the church is submissive to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in everything.

³ I thank my God for every mention of you,

¹¹ being filled with the fruit of righteousness, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

⁶ who, being in the form of God, thought it not usurpation to be equal with God, ⁷ but he humbled himself, having taken the form of a servant, being in the likeness of men; and having been found in fashion like a man; ⁸ he humbled himself, being obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.

⁸ Finally, brethren, so many things as are true, so many things as are noble, so many things as are righteous, so many things as are pure, so many things as are lovely, so many things as are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.

¹⁸ But I have all things, and I abound: I am full, having received from Epaphroditus those things from you, an odor of a sweet savor, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God.

¹⁰ that you may walk worthily of the Lord in all loyalty, in every good work bearing fruit, and increasing in the perfect knowledge of God.

¹⁸ Ye wives, submit to your husbands as is becoming in the Lord.

¹⁵ who even killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and persecuted us, and are displeasing to God, and hostile to all men; ¹⁶ forbidding that we should speak to the Gentiles in order that they may be saved; that they may fill up their sins always: but the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

¹² and the Lord fill you and cause you to superabound in divine love toward one another, and toward all, even as we also do towards you;

¹ Finally therefore, brethren, we pray you and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how it behooves you to walk about and to please God, as you do indeed walk about, in order that you may abound more and more.

¹¹ and that you aspire to be quiet, and to prosecute your own employments, and work with your hands, as we proclaimed unto you;

³ We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren, as it is worthy, because your faith increases, and the divine love of each one of you all towards one another abounds more and more;

¹⁰ when he may come to be glorified among his saints, and among all those who believe, to be wondered at in that day, because our testimony was believed by you.

¹ Paul, the apostle of Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Jesus Christ our hope;

⁵ but the end of the commandment is divine love out of a clean heart and a good conscience and faith free from hypocrisy:

¹¹ according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, with which I am intrusted. ¹² I give thanks to Jesus Christ our Lord, the one having filled me up with dynamite, because he considered me faithful, having put me in the ministry;

¹⁴ but the grace of our Lord with faith and the divine love which is in Christ Jesus superabounded.

⁴ who wishes all men to be saved, and to come to the perfect knowledge of the truth.

⁹ likewise that the women adorn themselves in comely apparel, with modesty and prudence; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly garments;

¹⁰ For unto this we toil and agonize, because we have hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of the faithful.

⁴ But if any widow has children, or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety to their own house, and to give benefactions to their ancestors: for this is acceptable in the sight of God. ⁵ She who is truly a widow, and left alone, hopes in God, and abides in prayers and supplication night and day; ⁶ but she who is wanton is dead though living. ⁷ Indeed command these things, in order that they may be blameless. ⁸ But if any one provides not for his own, and especially those of his own house, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. ⁹ Let a widow not be taken into account under three score years, the wife of one husband, ¹⁰ being witness in beautiful works; if she has brought up children, if she has entertained strangers, if she has washed the feet of saints, if she has succored those in tribulation, if she has followed in every good work.

¹⁴ Therefore I wish the younger women to marry, to raise up children, to rule the house, to give no occasion to the adversary for the sake of reproach;

¹⁵ which the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of the kings, and Lord of the lords, will manifest in his own due times;

⁸ Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor me his prisoner: but suffer affliction for the sake of the gospel according to the power of God; ⁹ the one having saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the eternal times,

¹¹ unto which I have been placed a herald, and an apostle, and teacher:

²⁴ But it does not behoove the servant of the Lord to strive, but to be gentle toward all, competent to teach, enduring evil, ²⁵ in meekness correcting the adversaries; if peradventure God may grant unto them repentance into the perfect knowledge of the truth,

⁷ always learning, and never able to come into the perfect knowledge of the truth.

¹ Paul, the servant of God, and apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the elect of God, and the perfect knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,

³ and manifested in his own seasons his word by preaching, with which I am intrusted, according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

³ likewise that the elderly women be reverent in demeanor, not tattlers, not given to much wine, teachers of that which is good; ⁴ in order that they instruct the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, ⁵ to be prudent, chaste, domestic, good, submissive to their own husbands, in order that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

⁵ to be prudent, chaste, domestic, good, submissive to their own husbands, in order that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

¹⁰ not purloining, but exhibiting all good faith, that they may adorn the teaching of God our Saviour in all things. ¹¹ For the grace of God, that brings salvation to all men, has appeared,

¹¹ For the grace of God, that brings salvation to all men, has appeared, ¹² teaching us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we must live prudently and righteously and holily in this present age;

¹² teaching us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we must live prudently and righteously and holily in this present age; ¹³ looking for the blessed hope even the appearing of the glory of our great God and our Saviour Christ Jesus; ¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

² to speak evil of no one, that they should be peaceable, gentle, showing all meekness to all men.

⁸ The word is faithful, and I wish you to be established concerning these things, in order that those having believed in God may think to excel in good works. These things are beautiful and useful to the people:

⁶ But somewhere one testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the Son of man, that thou visitest him? ⁷ Thou didst humiliate him somewhat comparatively with the angels; thou didst crown him with glory and honor; ⁸ thou didst subordinate all things beneath his feet. For in subordinating all things beneath him, he left nothing which is not subordinated beneath him. ⁹ But we see Jesus humiliated somewhat in comparison with the angels, having been crowned with glory and honor on account of the suffering of death, in order that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one. ¹⁰ For it became him, on account of whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in leading many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through suffering. ¹¹ For both the one sanctifying and they who are sanctified are all of one: on account of which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹² saying, I will proclaim thy name to thy brethren, in the midst of the church will sing praises to thee. ¹³ And again, I will put my trust in him: and again; Behold, I and the children which God has given unto me.

¹¹ But we desire each one of you to exhibit the same diligence unto the full assurance of hope unto the end:

²⁵ wherefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those coming unto God through him, ever living to intercede for them.

⁶ but now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, insomuch that he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been founded on better promises.

¹² neither through the blood of goats and bullocks, but through his own blood, came once into the holies, having found eternal redemption.

¹⁵ And on this account he is mediator of the new covenant, since there being death, unto the redemption of the transgressions unto the first covenant, those having been called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

²² let us draw nigh with a true heart in a full assurance of faith, having been sprinkled as to our hearts from an evil conscience,

²⁶ For we sinning willingly after we have received the perfect knowledge of the truth, there is left no more sacrifice for sins,

¹⁴ Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification, without which no one shall see the Lord:

²⁴ and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, speaking something better than the blood of Abel.

¹⁶ But do not forget benefaction and fellowship: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

⁶ But let him ask in faith, doubting as to nothing; for he that doubts is like unto a wave of the sea driven by the winds and tossed by the tempest. ⁷ For let not that man think that he will receive anything from the Lord, ⁸ the double-minded man, the most unstable in all his ways.

⁸ draw nigh unto God, and he draws nigh unto you. Purify your hands, ye sinners; and cleanse your hearts, ye double-minded.

¹⁶ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, in order that you may be healed: the inward working prayer of a righteous man avails much.

¹⁸ knowing that you have been redeemed from your depraved character transmitted from your ancestors, not by corruptible things, silver or gold, ¹⁹ but by the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and spotless:

⁵ and you, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, into a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, acceptable unto God through Jesus Christ.

⁹ But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people unto conquest; in order that you may proclaim the virtues of the one having called you out of darkness unto his own marvelous light: ¹⁰ who at one time were no people, but now you are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, lint just now having received mercy. ¹¹ Beloved, I exhort you as pilgrims and strangers, to abstain from the carnal desire which wars against the soul; ¹² having your deportment beautiful among the Gentiles: in order that in whatsoever they calumniate you as evil doers, seeing from your beautiful works, they may glorify God in the day of his visitation.

¹² having your deportment beautiful among the Gentiles: in order that in whatsoever they calumniate you as evil doers, seeing from your beautiful works, they may glorify God in the day of his visitation. ¹³ Submit to every human creature for the sake of the Lord: whether to the king as supereminent,

²⁰ For what glory is there, if, committing sin and being buffeted, you endure it? But if, doing good and suffering you endure it, this is grace with God.

²⁴ who himself has borne our sins in his own body on the wood, in order that we, being made free from sins, may live unto righteousness: by whose stripe you are healed.

¹ Likewise, ye wives, be submissive to your own husbands; in order that, if any do not believe the word, they shall be gained through the deportment of their wives, without the word;

³ whose beauty, let it not be the external beauty of braiding the hairs, and wearing golds, or putting on of outer garments; ⁴ but let their beauty be the hidden man of the heart, in the purity of the meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is perfection complete. ⁵ For in this way in olden times the holy wives, the ones having hope toward God, were indeed accustomed to beautify themselves, submissive to their own husbands:

⁵ For in this way in olden times the holy wives, the ones having hope toward God, were indeed accustomed to beautify themselves, submissive to their own husbands: ⁶ as Sarah submitted to Abraham, calling him Lord: whose children you have become, doing good, and not fearing any calamity. ⁷ Likewise, ye husbands, dwelling with the wife according to knowledge, as the weaker vessel, extending to them honor, as indeed the equal heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers should not be hindered.

¹⁸ Because Christ indeed once died for our sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, indeed being put to death in the flesh, but quickened in spirit:

⁷ But the end of all things is at hand. Therefore be prudent, and sober unto prayers:

³ As His divine power having given unto us all things which appertain to life and godliness, through the perfect knowledge of the one having called us to his own glory and virtue: ⁴ through which precious and greatest promises have been given unto us; that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust. ⁵ And in harmony with this same thing also, add to your faith heroism; and to heroism, knowledge; ⁶ and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness;

⁶ and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness; ⁷ and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love.

⁷ and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love. ⁸ For these things, being in you and overflowing, render you neither barren nor unfruitful in the perfect knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;

¹⁰ In him is divine love, not because we loved God with divine love, but because he loved us with divine love, and sent his Son an expiation for our sins.

¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God has given unto us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ¹² The one having the Son has the life; the one not having the Son of God has not the life.

⁵ and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstbegotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. To the one loving us with divine love, and having washed us from our sins in His own blood,

¹³ and in the midst of the candlesticks one like the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to his feet, and girded about the breast with a golden girdle.

¹⁹ I know your works, and your divine love, and faith, and ministry, and patience, and your works: the last more than the first.

⁹ And they sing a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to receive the book, and to open its seals: because thou wast slain, and didst with thy blood redeem unto God out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

⁶ And I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven having the eternal gospel to preach to those dwelling upon the earth, and to every nation, and tribe, and tongue, and people,
