²⁴ If I did not the works in them which none other has done, they had not sin: and now have they also seen and hated also me and my Father.

³ And this is eternal life, that they might know thee the only true God, and whom thou hast sent, Jesus Christ.

⁵ And now, honour thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the honour which I had with thee before the world was.

²² And I, the honour which thou hast given me, have-given them; that they might be one, as we are one. ²³ I in them, and thou in me, that they might be perfected in one: and that the world might know that thou sentest me, and lovedst them, as thou lovedst me. ²⁴ O Father, those thou hast given me, I will that where I am these also be with me: that they might behold my glory, which thou gavest me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

²⁶ And I made known to them thy name, and I will make known: that the love with which thou lovedst me might be in them, and I in them.

¹⁷ Jesus says to her, Touch me not; for I have not yet ascended to my Father: and go thou to my brethren, and say to them, I ascend to my Father, and your Father; to my God, and your God.

⁸ But ye shall receive power, the Holy Spirit having come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses to me also in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the last of the earth.

¹⁷ For he was numbered with us, and obtained the lot of this service.

²⁵ To take the lot of this service and sending forth, from which Judas passed by, to go to his own place.

⁵ And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, circumspect men, from every nation of those under heaven.

³⁸ And Peter said to them, Repent, and be each of you immersed in the name of Jesus Christ for remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

²⁰ And he send Jesus Christ, before proclaimed to you,

¹² And salvation is in no other: for neither is another name given under heaven among men, in which we must be saved.

⁴¹ Truly therefore they went rejoicing from the face of the council, that for his name they were deemed worthy to be dishonoured. ⁴² And every day in the temple, and at the house, they ceased not teaching and announcing the good news, Jesus the Christ.

⁵ And Philip having come down to the city of Samaria, proclaimed Christ to them.

³⁵ And Philip having opened his mouth, and begun from this writing, announced to him the good news, Jesus.

²⁰ And quickly in the synagogues he proclaimed Jesus, that he is the Son of God.

³⁰ And Cornelius said, From the fourth day till this hour I was fasting; and the ninth hour praying in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

³⁶ The word which he sent to the sons of Israel, announcing good news, peace through Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)

⁴³ To him all the prophets testify, for all believing on him to receive remission of sins through his name.

¹⁸ And having heard these, they were silent, and honoured God, saying, For also God gave the nations repentance to life.

²⁰ And certain of them were Cyprian and Cyrenian men, who having come to Antioch, spake to the Greeks announcing good news, the Lord Jesus.

²³ Who, having been present, and seen the grace of God, rejoiced, and besought them all, with purpose of heart, to remain to the Lord.

⁵ Truly therefore was Peter kept in prison: and prayer was made continually by the church to God for him.

²⁴ And the word of God increased and multiplied.

²⁶ Men, brethren, sons of Abraham's race, and those among you fearing God, to you was the word of this salvation sent.

³⁸ Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that for him remission of sins is announced to you.

³⁸ Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that for him remission of sins is announced to you. ³⁹ And from all which ye could not be justified by Moses' law, every one believing in him is justified.

²² And supporting the souls of the disciples, beseeching to remain in the faith, that through many pressures we must come into the kingdom of God.

¹⁴ And a certain woman, by name Lydia, a dealer in purple garments, of the city of Thyatira, worshipping God, heard: whose heart the Lord opened to attend to things spoken by Paul.

³ Opening and setting before, that it was necessary for Christ to suffer, and rise from, the dead; and that this is Christ Jesus, whom I announce to you.

¹⁸ And certain of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers deliberated with him. And certain said, What may this idle, talkative man wish to say? and others, He seems to be a declarer of strange demons: because he announced to them good news, and the rising up.

²⁸ For in him we live, and move, and are; as certain of the composers among you have said, For we also are his race.

²⁴ But the word of none do I make mine own, neither have I my soul highly prized to myself, in order to finish my course with joy, and the service which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the good news of the grace of God.

²⁷ For I concealed not to announce to you all the counsel of God. ²⁸ Attend therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit set you inspectors, to feed the church of God, which he acquired by his own blood.

²⁸ Attend therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit set you inspectors, to feed the church of God, which he acquired by his own blood.

³¹ Wherefore watch ye, remembering that the space of three years night and day I ceased not reminding each one with tears. ³² And now I commit you, brethren, to God, and to the word of his grace, being able to build up, and give you inheritance among all the consecrated.

⁶ And Paul having known that one part is of the Sadducees, and the other of the Pharisees, cried in the council, Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, son of a Pharisee: for the hope and rising up of the dead am I judged.

¹⁵ Having hope to God, which they themselves also admit, a rising from the dead about to be, both of just and unjust.

⁶ And now in the hope of the solemn promise having been made to the fathers by God, I stand, being judged, ⁷ To which our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to arrive. For which hope I am accused, king Agrippa, by the Jews.

¹⁶ But arise, and stand upon thy feet: for, for this was I sent to thee, to take thee in hand, a servant and witness both of what things thou sawest, and of what I shall be seen to thee;

¹⁸ To open their eyes, to turn them back from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, fur them to receive remission of sins, and inheritance with the consecrated by faith in me.

²³ That Christ exposed to suffering, that first from the rising of the dead, he is about to announce light to the people, and nations.

¹ Paul, servant of Jesus Christ, called sent, separated to the good news of God,

⁷ To all being in Rome, beloved of God, called holy: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. ⁸ First, I return thanks to my God by Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is announced in the whole world.

⁸ First, I return thanks to my God by Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is announced in the whole world. ⁹ For my witness is God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, so that continually I make mention of you, always supplicating in my prayers;

⁹ For my witness is God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, so that continually I make mention of you, always supplicating in my prayers; ¹⁰ If in any way I shall be prospered on my way in the will of God to come to you.

¹³ And I would not ye should be ignorant, brethren, that many times I proposed to come to you, (and I was hindered till this time,) that I might have some fruit also in you, and in the rest of the nations.

³⁰ Whisperers, slanderers, odious to God, abusers of power, proud, tumultuous, inventors of injuries, disobedient to parents,

⁷ To them truly by perseverance of the good work they seek glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

²⁴ Being justified as a gift by his grace by the redemption which is in Christ Jesus: ²⁵ Whom God had set before a propitiatory by faith in his blood, for a manifestation of his justice by passing over of sins before existing, in the sufferance of God;

⁶ As also David speaks the happiness of the man, to whom God reckons justice without works, ⁷ Happy they whose iniquities were remitted, and whose sins were covered. ⁸ A happy man to whom the Lord should not reckon sin.

¹² And father of circumcision to them not of circumcision only, but also to them, walking in order in the tracks of the uncircumcision, of the faith of our father Abraham.

¹ Justified therefore of faith we have peace with God by our Lord Jesus Christ: ² By whom also we have had access by faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast upon hope of the glory of God. ³ And not only, but also we boast in affliction: knowing that affliction works perseverance;

³ And not only, but also we boast in affliction: knowing that affliction works perseverance; ⁴ And perseverance, proof; and proof, hope. ⁵ And hope shames not; for the love of God has been poured in our hearts by the Holy Spirit given us.

⁵ And hope shames not; for the love of God has been poured in our hearts by the Holy Spirit given us.

⁹ Much more then, justified now in his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath. ¹⁰ For if, being enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, reconciled, we shall be saved in his life.

⁴ Therefore were we buried with him by immersion into death: that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so also we should walk in newness of life.

¹⁷ And grace to God, that ye were servants of sin, but ye listened from the heart to the type of teaching in which ye were delivered. ¹⁸ And freed from sin, ye were subdued to justice. ¹⁹ (I speak as man through the weakness of your flesh:) for as ye presented your members to uncleanness and iniquity; so now present ye your members servants to justice for consecration. ²⁰ For when ye were servants to sin, ye were free to justice. ²¹ Therefore what fruit had ye then of what ye are now ashamed? for the end of these, death. ²² And now freed from sin, and subdued to God, ye have your fruit to consecration, and the end life eternal.

⁴ Therefore, my brethren, ye also were dead to the law by the body of Christ; for you not to be to another, but to him raised from the dead, that we bring forth fruit to God.

⁷ Wherefore the thought of the flesh enmity to God: for it is not subject to the law of God, for it cannot be. ⁸ And they being in the flesh cannot please God.

¹⁰ And if Christ in you, truly the body dead by sin; and the Spirit life by justice.

¹⁷ And if children, also heirs; truly heirs of God, and coheirs of Christ; if indeed we suffer together, that we may be also glorified together. ¹⁸ For I reckon that the sufferings of the time now not worthy of the glory about to be revealed in us. ¹⁹ For the anxious expectation of the creation awaits the revelation of the sons of God.

²⁹ For whom he before knew, he also before determined of the form of the image of his Son, for him to be first born in many brethren.

²⁹ For whom he before knew, he also before determined of the form of the image of his Son, for him to be first born in many brethren. ³⁰ And whom he before determined, these he also called: and whom he called, these he also justified: and whom he justified, these he also glorified.

³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor beginnings, nor powers, nor things having stood, nor things about to be,

²³ And that he might make known the riches of his glory upon the vessels of mercy, which he before prepared for glory

⁸ But what does it say? The word is near thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we proclaim;

¹⁷ Therefore faith, from the report, and report by the word of God. ¹⁸ But I say, Have they not heard? Surely, in all the earth went out their sound, and their words to the end of the habitable globe.

¹⁸ But I say, Have they not heard? Surely, in all the earth went out their sound, and their words to the end of the habitable globe.

¹⁷ And if certain of the young shoots were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in them, and wert a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

³³ O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! his judgments how unsearchable, and his ways not traced out!

³⁶ For of him, and by him, and to him, all things: to him the glory forever Amen.

² And be ye not conformed to this life, but be transformed by the renovation of your mind, for you to prove what the good, and the pleasing, and the perfected will of God.

¹⁷ For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but justice, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

¹⁵ And I wrote to you more boldly, brethren, from part as reminding you, by the grace given me by God, ¹⁶ For me to be the, workman of Jesus Christ to the nations, offering in sacrifice the good news of God, that the bringing forward of the nations be acceptable, consecrated in the Holy Spirit.

¹⁶ For me to be the, workman of Jesus Christ to the nations, offering in sacrifice the good news of God, that the bringing forward of the nations be acceptable, consecrated in the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ I have therefore boasting in Christ Jesus the things toward God. ¹⁸ For I shall dare to speak nothing that Christ has not brought about by me, for the obedience of the nations, by word and by work, ¹⁹ By power of signs and wonders, by power of the Spirit of God, so that I from Jerusalem, and round about even to Illyricum, have completed the good news of Christ.

¹⁹ By power of signs and wonders, by power of the Spirit of God, so that I from Jerusalem, and round about even to Illyricum, have completed the good news of Christ. ²⁰ And so seeking the honour to announce the good news, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon a strange foundation:

²⁷ For they were contented; and they are their debtors. For if the nations have participated in their spiritual things, they ought also to serve them in things pertaining to the flesh. ²⁸ Therefore having completed this, and sealed to them this fruit, I will come away by you to Spain.

³⁰ And I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by love of the Spirit, to fight together with me in prayers for me to God;

²⁵ And to him being able to support you according to my good news, and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept silent from eternal times,

²⁵ And to him being able to support you according to my good news, and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept silent from eternal times, ²⁶ And now made manifest, also by the prophetic writings according to the command of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith made known to all nations:

²⁶ And now made manifest, also by the prophetic writings according to the command of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith made known to all nations:

¹ Paul, called, sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother, ² To the church of God being in Corinth, to the consecrated in Christ Jesus, to the Called holy ones, with all calling upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:

⁴ I return thanks to my God always for you, for the grace of God given you in Christ Jesus; ⁵ That in every thing we were enriched in him, in all the word, and all knowledge;

²³ And we proclaim Christ crucified, to the Jews truly a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

³⁰ And ye are of him in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and also justice, and consecration, and holiness:

⁶ But we speak wisdom among the perfected: and the wisdom not of this life, nor of the rulers of this life, they being left unemployed: ⁷ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, hidden, which God determined beforehand, before the times to our glory:

¹² And we have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit from God; that we might know things bestowed upon us as a gift by God. ¹³ Which also we speak, not in words taught of man's wisdom, but in them taught of the Holy Spirit; examining spiritual things by spiritual. ¹⁴ And the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: and he cannot know, for they are spiritually examined. ¹⁵ And the spiritual truly examines all things, and he is examined by no one.

⁵ Who then is Paul, and who Apollos, but servants by whom ye believed, and to each as the Lord gave?

¹⁶ Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and the spirit of God dwells in you?

¹ So let a man reckon us, as servants of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. ² And besides it is sought in stewards, that any one be found faithful.

² And besides it is sought in stewards, that any one be found faithful. ³ And to me it is the least that I be judged by you, or by man's day: but neither do I judge myself.

¹⁴ Not shaming you, write I these, but as my beloved children I admonish you.

¹⁷ Therefore sent I Timothens to you, who is my beloved child, and faithful in the Lord, who will remind you of all my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in all the churches.

⁹ Or know ye not that the unjust shall not inherit the kingdom of God Be ye not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites, ¹⁰ Nor thieves; nor covetous, nor intoxicated, nor railers, nor rapacious, shall inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And these were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye were consecrated, but ye were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

²⁵ But for virgins I have not an order of the Lord: and I give an opinion as compassionated by the Lord to be faithful.

⁶ But to us one God, the Father, of whom all things, and we for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom all things, and we by him.

¹⁷ For if of free will I do this, I have reward: and if unwillingly, I have been entrusted with a stewardship.

²³ And this. I do on account of the good news, that I might become a partaker of it.

²⁵ And every one contending for the prize, has self command in all things. These surely therefore that they might receive a corruptible crown; and we an incorruptible. ²⁶ I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so practise I pugilism, as not laying stripes upon air: ²⁷ But I give my body a blow under the eyes, and reduce to bondage: lest having proclaimed to others, I myself be rejected.

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

⁶ And there are distinctions of performances, and it is the same God performing all things in all.

⁸ For truly to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

¹¹ And all these works one and the same Spirit, dividing to each his own things as be will.

¹³ And now remains faith, hope, love, these three; and the greater of these, love.

¹⁰ And by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which in me was not vain; but I was more abundantly wearied than they all: and not I, but the grace of God which with me.

¹⁰ And by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which in me was not vain; but I was more abundantly wearied than they all: and not I, but the grace of God which with me. ¹¹ Whether therefore I or they, so we proclaim, and so ye believed. ¹² And if Christ is proclaimed that he arose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no rising up of the dead?

¹⁹ If in this life only we have been hoping in Christ, we are more to be compassionated than all men. ²⁰ And now Was Christ raised from the dead, he was the first fruits of those having died. ²¹ For since by man death, also by man the rising up of the dead. ²² For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. ²³ And each in his own order: the first fruit Christ; then they of Christ in his arrival.

²³ And each in his own order: the first fruit Christ; then they of Christ in his arrival. ²⁴ Then the end, when he should deliver up the kingdom to God, and the Father; when he should leave unemployed every beginning and every authority and power. ²⁵ For he must reign, till he put all enemies under his feet.

²⁵ For he must reign, till he put all enemies under his feet.

⁵⁸ Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be stable, unmoved, abounding in the work of the Lord always, knowing that our fatigue is not in vain in the Lord.

¹ Paul, sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and brother Timothy, to the church of God being in Corinth, with all holy ones being in the whole of Achaia:

⁵ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so by Christ abounds also our comfort. ⁶ And whether we are pressed, for your comfort and salvation, being well wrought in endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer: whether we are comforted, for your comfort and salvation. ⁷ And our hope firm for you, knowing, that as ye are participators of the sufferings, so also of the comfort. ⁸ For we wish you not to be ignorant, brethren, of our pressure having been to us in Asia, that we were exceedingly loaded, above strength, so that we were in utter perplexity even to live:

¹⁴ Grace to God, always leading us to triumph in Christ, and making manifest the order of his knowledge by us in every place.

⁶ Who rendered as fitting servants of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter kills, and the Spirit makes alive.

¹ For this, having this service, as we were compassionated, we lose not courage;

⁴ In whom the God of this world blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so that the enlightening of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, does not enlighten them. ⁵ For we proclaim not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus. ⁶ For God, having spoken light to shine out of darkness, who shone in our hearts, to the enlightening of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. ⁷ And we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the eminence of power be of God, and not of us. ⁸ Being pressed in every thing, but not straightened; being at a loss, but not utterly perplexed; ⁹ Being driven out, but not forsaken; being cast down, but not destroyed; ¹⁰ Always bearing about in the body the death of the Lord Jesus, that also the life of Jesus be made manifest in our body. ¹¹ For we, the living, are always delivered to death for Jesus, that also the life of Jesus be made manifest in our mortal flesh. ¹² So that death is truly energetic in us, and life in you.

¹⁷ For the present moment the lightness of our pressure works to us an eternal weight of glory, as eminence upon eminence;

⁵ And he having brought us about to this same, God, he having also given us the pledge of the Spirit.

⁹ Wherefore also let us seek the honour, whether being at home, whether being absent, to be pleasing to him.

¹⁸ And all things of God, having reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and given us the service of reconciliation;

¹⁸ And all things of God, having reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and given us the service of reconciliation; ¹⁹ For as God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their faults; and having set in us the word of reconciliation.

¹⁹ For as God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their faults; and having set in us the word of reconciliation.

¹⁹ For as God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their faults; and having set in us the word of reconciliation. ²⁰ For Christ therefore are we ambassadors, as of God beseeching by us: we pray for the sake of Christ, be ye reconciled to God.

²⁰ For Christ therefore are we ambassadors, as of God beseeching by us: we pray for the sake of Christ, be ye reconciled to God. ²¹ For him not knowing sin, he made sin for us; that we might be the justice of God in him.

¹ And working together, we also beseech, lest also ye receive the grace of God in vain.

⁴ But in every thing recommending ourselves as servants of God, in much patience, in pressures, in necessities, in extremities, ⁵ In blows, in imprisonments, in disorders, in fatigues, in watchings, in fastings;

⁵ In blows, in imprisonments, in disorders, in fatigues, in watchings, in fastings; ⁶ In purity, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned. ⁷ In the word of truth, in the power of God, through the weapons of justice of the right hands and the left,

¹⁶ And what agreement to the temple of God with images? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God said, That I will dwell in them, and will go round about; and will be their God, and they shall be a people to me. ¹⁷ Therefore come out from the midst of them, and be separated, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you. ¹⁸ And I will be to you for a Father, and ye shall be to me for sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.

⁴ Much freedom of speech to me toward you; to me much boasting over you: I am filled with consolation, I superabound in joy in all your pressure.

⁷ And not only in his arrival, but also in the comfort which he was comforted in you, announcing to us your anxious desire, your lamentations, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced the more.

⁸ And God able for all grace to abound in you; having always all sufficiency in everything, ye abound in every good work:

¹⁴ For not as reaching to you we stretch beyond ourselves: for also even to you we came before in the good news of Christ:

² For I am zealous of you with the zeal of God: for I fitted you to one husband, to present a pure virgin to Christ.

²³ Are they Christ's servants? (I speak being light-headed) I above; in toils more abundant, in blows more excessively, in watchings more abundantly, in deaths often.

²³ Are they Christ's servants? (I speak being light-headed) I above; in toils more abundant, in blows more excessively, in watchings more abundantly, in deaths often. ²⁴ Of the Jews five times I received forty, except one. ²⁵ Thrice was I scourged with rods, once was I stoned, thrice suffered I shipwreck, I have made a night and day in the deep; ²⁶ In journeys often, in dangers of rivers, in dangers of robbers, in dangers of the family, in dangers from the nations, in dangers in the city, in dangers in solitude, in dangers in the sea, in dangers with false brethren; ²⁷ In fatigue and toil, in watchfulnesses often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

⁹ And he said to me, My grace suffices thee: for my power is perfected in weakness. Therefore very willingly will I boast rather in my weaknesses, that Christ's power may lodge upon me. ¹⁰ Therefore am I contented in weaknesses, in reproaches, in necessities in expulsions, in extremities for Christ: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

³ Since seek proof of Christ speaking in me, who to you is no weak, but has power in you.

³ Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

¹⁵ And when God was contented, having separated me from my mother's womb, and having called me, by his grace, ¹⁶ To reveal his Son in me, that I might announce him the good news in the nations; I consulted not with flesh and blood:

⁷ But on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the good news of uncircumcision, as Peter of circumcision; ⁸ (For be having been energetic in Peter for the mission of circumcision, was energetic also in me for the nations:)

²⁰ I am crucified with Christ: and I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in we: and what I now live in the flesh I live in the faith of the Son of God, having loved me, and given himself for me.

⁹ So that they of faith are praised with faithful Abraham.

¹³ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having been a curse for us: for it has been written, Cursed every one hanging upon a tree:

¹¹ I am afraid of you, lest I have been wearied for you in vain.

¹⁹ My children, for whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you,

⁵ For we in spirit by faith expect the hope of justice. ⁶ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any power, nor uncircumcision; but faith being energetic through love. ⁷ Ye were running well; who hindered you not to obey the truth?

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith, ²³ Meekness, temperance: against such is no law.

⁹ And doing good let us not despond: for in proper time we shall reap, not being enervated.

¹ Paul, sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the holy ones being in Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

³ Praised be God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, he having praised us in every spiritual praise in heavenly things in Christ: ⁴ As he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, for us to be holy and blameless before him in love: ⁵ Having determined us beforehand for adoption as a son by Jesus Christ to him, according to benevolence of his will, ⁶ To the praise of the glory of his grace, in which he rendered us acceptable in the beloved. ⁷ In whom we have redemption by his blood, the letting go of faults, according to the riches of his grace; ⁸ In which he abounded to us in all wisdom and intelligence;

¹⁰ For the arrangement of the completion of the times, to unite in a whole all things in Christ, both the things in the heavens, and the things upon earth; in him: ¹¹ In whom also we were cast by lot, determined beforehand according to the purpose of him performing all things according to the counsel of his will:

¹³ In whom ye also, having heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation: in whom also having believed, ye were sealed by the holy Spirit of solemn promise,

¹⁵ For this, I also, having heard the faith among you in the Lord Jesus, and love to all the holy,

¹⁵ For this, I also, having heard the faith among you in the Lord Jesus, and love to all the holy, ¹⁶ Cease not returning thanks for you, making remembrance of you in my prayers; ¹⁷ That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, might give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in his knowledge:

¹⁷ That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, might give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in his knowledge:

¹⁷ That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, might give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in his knowledge: ¹⁸ The eyes of your understanding enlightened; for you to know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the holy ones,

¹⁸ The eyes of your understanding enlightened; for you to know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the holy ones,

¹⁸ The eyes of your understanding enlightened; for you to know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the holy ones,

¹⁸ The eyes of your understanding enlightened; for you to know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the holy ones, ¹⁹ And what the surpassing greatness of his power to us believing, according to the action of the might of his strength,

¹⁹ And what the surpassing greatness of his power to us believing, according to the action of the might of his strength,

¹⁹ And what the surpassing greatness of his power to us believing, according to the action of the might of his strength, ²⁰ Which he performed in Christ, having raised him from the dead, and he sat on his right hand in the heavenlies,

²⁰ Which he performed in Christ, having raised him from the dead, and he sat on his right hand in the heavenlies, ²¹ Above every beginning, and authority, and power, and property, and every name named, not only in this life, but in that about to be: ²² And placed all things under his, feet, and gave him head over all things to the church, ²³ Which is his body, the completion of him completing all things in all.

²³ Which is his body, the completion of him completing all things in all.

¹ And ye being dead in faults and in sins; ² In which when ye walked according to the life of this world, according to the ruler of the power of the air, of the spirit now energetic in the sons of disobedience: ³ Among whom also we then all occupied ourselves in the eager desire? of our flesh, doing the wills of the flesh and the thoughts; and were by nature children of wrath, as also the rest.

³ Among whom also we then all occupied ourselves in the eager desire? of our flesh, doing the wills of the flesh and the thoughts; and were by nature children of wrath, as also the rest. ⁴ But God, being rich in mercy, by his much love which he loved us, ⁵ And we being dead in faults, he made alive together with Christ, (by grace are ye saved;) ⁶ And raised together, and seated together in heavenlies in Christ Jesus: ⁷ That he might show in times coming the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness to us in Christ Jesus. ⁸ For by grace are ye saved through faith; and this not of you: the gift of God: ⁹ Not of works, lest any one should boast. ¹⁰ For we are his work, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.,

¹² That ye were in that time without Christy alienated from the citizenship of Israel, and foreigners from the covenants of solemn promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: ¹³ And now in Christ Jesus ye who then being far off have become near in the blood of Christ. ¹⁴ For he is our peace, having made both one, and having loosed the middle partition wall of the enclosure; ¹⁵ The enmity in his flesh, the law of commands in enactments, having left unemployed; that he might create in himself one new man, making peace;

¹⁵ The enmity in his flesh, the law of commands in enactments, having left unemployed; that he might create in himself one new man, making peace; ¹⁶ And that he might reconcile anew both in one body to God by the cross, having slain the eninity in it:

¹⁶ And that he might reconcile anew both in one body to God by the cross, having slain the eninity in it: ¹⁷ And having come, he announced good news, peace to you afar off, and to those near.

¹⁹ Wherefore then are ye no more foreigners and sojourners, but fellow-citizens of the holy, and the household of God;

²¹ In whom all the building fitted together increases into a holy temple in the Lord: ²² In whom also ye are builded together for the dwelling of God in the Spirit.

¹ For this, I Paul, the imprisoned of Christ Jesus for you the nations, ² If ye have heard of the distribution of the grace of God given to me for you: ³ That by revelation he made Known to me the mystery; (as I before wrote briefly, ⁴ By which ye, reading, can perceive My understanding in the mystery of Christ,) ⁵ Which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as now has been revealed to his holy sent and to the prophets by the Spirit: ⁶ For the nations to be co-heirs, and united in one body, and, participators of his solemn promise in Christ by the good news:

⁶ For the nations to be co-heirs, and united in one body, and, participators of his solemn promise in Christ by the good news: ⁷ Of which I Became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me according to the energy of his power

⁷ Of which I Became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me according to the energy of his power

⁷ Of which I Became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me according to the energy of his power ⁸ To me, the least of all the holy ones, was this grace given, to announce the good news in the nations, the untraceable riches of Christ.

⁸ To me, the least of all the holy ones, was this grace given, to announce the good news in the nations, the untraceable riches of Christ. ⁹ And to enlighten all what the distribution of the mystery, concealed from times immemorial in God, having created all things by Jesus Christ: ¹⁰ That it might now be made known to beginnings and powers in the heavenlies by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

¹³ Wherefore I desire not to lose courage in my pressures for you, which is your glory. ¹⁴ For this I bend my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, ¹⁵ Of whom all the family in the heavens and upon earth is named, ¹⁶ That he might give to you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power by his Spirit in the interior man;

¹⁶ That he might give to you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power by his Spirit in the interior man;

¹⁶ That he might give to you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power by his Spirit in the interior man; ¹⁷ For Christ to dwell by faith in your hearts; in love being rendered firm, and the foundation laid,

¹ Therefore I, the imprisoned in the Lord, beseech you to walk Worthy of the calling which ye were called, ² With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, bearing one another in love;

⁶ One God and Father of all, who over all, and through all, and in you all.

¹⁰ He having descended is the same having ascended above all the heavens, that he might fill up all things.) ¹¹ And truly he gave the sent; and the prophets; and the bearers of good tidings; and the shepherds, and the teachers; ¹² For the adjusting of the holy, for the work of the service, for the building up of the body of Christ: ¹³ Until we all arrive to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the perfect man, to the measure of age of the filling up of Christ.

¹³ Until we all arrive to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the perfect man, to the measure of age of the filling up of Christ.

¹⁵ And speaking the truth in love, let us grow up into him in all things, who is the head, Christ: ¹⁶ From whom all the body fitted together and joined together by every touch of the expenditure, according to the energy in measure of one of each part, makes the increase of the body to the building up of itself in love.

¹⁶ From whom all the body fitted together and joined together by every touch of the expenditure, according to the energy in measure of one of each part, makes the increase of the body to the building up of itself in love.

¹⁸ Being darkened in understanding, alienated from the life of God by ignorance being in them, by the hardness of their heart;

²¹ If ye heard him, and were taught in him, as is the truth in Jesus:

²³ And to be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

³² And be ye kind one to another, having good bowels, favoring each other, as also God in Christ Jesus favored you.

² And walk ye in love, as also Christ loved us, and gave himself for us a gift and sacrifice to God for a smell of sweet odor.

⁴ And obscenity, and silly discourse, or wit, which things concern not; but rather thankfulness.

⁸ For ye were then darkness, and now light in the Lord: walk ye as children of light: ⁹ (For the fruit of the Spirit in all goodness and justice and truth.;) ¹⁰ Trying what is pleasing to the Lord.

¹⁵ See therefore how ye walk accurately, not as unwise, but as wise,

¹⁷ For this be not foolish, but understanding what the will of the Lord.

²⁰ Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father; ²¹ Yielding obedience to one another in the fear of God.

²³ For the husband is the head of the wife, as also Christ the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

²⁷ That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing: but that it be holy and blameless.

⁶ Not with eye-service, as menpleasers; but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the soul:

¹⁰ As to the rest, my brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the strength of his power.

¹² For the wrestling is not to us against blood and flesh, but against beginnings, against powers, against the chiefs of the world of darkness of this life, against spiritual things of wickedness in heavenly things.

²¹ And that ye also might know the things concerning me, what I do, Tychicus will make all things known to you, the dearly beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord:

¹ Paul and Timotheus, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the holy in Christ Jesus at Philippi, with the overseers and servants:

³ I return thanks to my God for all your remembrance, ⁴ Always in all my prayer for you all with joy making prayer,

⁴ Always in all my prayer for you all with joy making prayer, ⁵ For your mutual participation in the good news from the first day until now;

⁹ And this I prey, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all intelligence; ¹⁰ For you to try things differing; that ye may be pure and not stumbling to the day of Christ; ¹¹ Filled with the fruits of justice, by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

¹¹ Filled with the fruits of justice, by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

¹⁵ And some truly by envy and strife, and some also by kindness of disposition, proclaim Christ. ¹⁶ Some truly of hired labor announce Christ, not purely, thinking to bring pressure upon my bonds: ¹⁷ And some of love, knowing that I am placed for justification of the good news: ¹⁸ For what? but in any manner, whether in pretence, or truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, and certainly I will rejoice.

²⁷ Only live as citizens worthy of the good news of Christ: that whether coming and seeing you, whether being absent, I shall bear the things concerning you, that ye stand in one spirit, one soul, fighting together in faith of the good news;

³⁰ Having the same struggle which ye saw in me, and now hear in me.

⁶ Who, being in the form of God, thought not robbery to be equal to God

¹⁰ That in the name of Jesus every knee should bend, of the heavenlies, and of terrestrial things, and things under earth

¹³ For God is working in you also to will and to work by benevolence.

¹⁶ Holding on to the word of life; for boasting to me in the day of Christ, for I ran not in vain, nor was I wearied in vain. ¹⁷ But if also I am poured out upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice together with you all. ¹⁸ And do ye also rejoice at the same, and rejoice together with me. ¹⁹ And I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy quickly to you, that I also be courageous, having known the things concerning you. ²⁰ For I have none having a like soul, who naturally will have care for the things concerning you. ²¹ For they all seek the things of themselves, and not the things of Christ Jesus. ²² And ye know his proof, that, as a child to a father, he served with me in the good news.

²⁵ And I thought necessary Epaphroditus, my brother, and cooperator, and fellow soldier, and your sent, and workman of my necessity, be sent to you.

¹⁰ To know him, and the power of his rising up, and the mutual participation of his sufferings, being rendered conformable to his death;

⁶ Rave anxiety about nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with gratitude let your desires be made known to God.

¹³ I am strong for all things in Christ strengthening me.

¹⁷ Not that I covet a gift: but I covet fruit abounding to your word. ¹⁸ And I have all, and abound: I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things from you, a smell of sweet odor, a sacrifice acceptable, pleasing to God. ¹⁹ And God will fill up all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

³ We return thanks to God. and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, ⁴ Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and love to all the holy,

⁴ Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and love to all the holy, ⁵ By the hope laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the good news;

⁵ By the hope laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the good news; ⁶ Being present to you as also in all the world; and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day which ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth:

⁶ Being present to you as also in all the world; and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day which ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth:

⁹ For this also we, from the day which we heard, ceased not praying for you, and asking that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; ¹⁰ For you to walk worthy of the Lord in all pleasing behavior, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

¹³ Who saved us from the power of darkness, and transferred into the kingdom of the Son of his love:

¹⁵ Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation: ¹⁶ For by him were all things created, things in the heavens, and things upon earth, things visible and invisible, whether thrones, whether dominions, whether beginnings, whether authorities: all were created by him, and for him: ¹⁷ And he is before all, and all things have been established by him. ¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that he might be the first in all

²⁰ And by him to reconcile all things anew to himself; having made peace by the blood of his cross, by him, whether things upon earth, whether things in the heavens. ²¹ And you, once being alienated and enemies in mind by evil works, and now has he reconciled ²² In the body of his flesh by death, to present you holy, and blameless, and irreproachable before him:

²² In the body of his flesh by death, to present you holy, and blameless, and irreproachable before him: ²³ If indeed ye remain in the faith, founded and firmly fixed, and not moved aside from the hope of the good news, which ye heard, being proclaimed in all creation under heaven; of which I Paul was a servant; ²⁴ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill again the necessities of the pressures of Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the church. ²⁵ Of which I was a servant, according to the stewardship of God, given to me for you, to complete the word of God;

²⁷ To whom God would make known what the riches of the glory of this mystery in the nations; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

¹ For I wish you to know how great contest I have for you, and them in Laodicea, and as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; ² That their hearts might be comforted, being joined together in love, and to all the riches of the complete certainty of the understanding, to the acknowledgment of the mystery of God, and the Father, and of Christ; ³ In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

⁶ Therefore as ye received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in him: ⁷ Being rooted and built up in him, and rendered firm in the faith, as ye were taught, abounding in it with gratitude.

⁹ For in him dwells all the completion of divinity bodily. ¹⁰ And ye are completed in him, who is the head of all beginning and power:

¹⁰ And ye are completed in him, who is the head of all beginning and power: ¹¹ In whom also were ye circumcised with the circumcision not made by hands, in the putting off the body of the sins of the flesh in the circumcision of Christ; ¹² Buried together with him in immersion, in which also were ye risen together by the faith of the operation of God, having raised him from the dead. ¹³ And you, being dead in faults and uncircumcision of the flesh, he made alive together with him, having propitiated to you all faults;

¹³ And you, being dead in faults and uncircumcision of the flesh, he made alive together with him, having propitiated to you all faults; ¹⁴ Having wiped out the handwriting against us in enactments, which was opposed to us, and he has taken it from the midst, having nailed it to his cross ¹⁵ Having stripped off beginnings and powers, he made an example in freedom of speech, having led them in triumph in it.

¹⁹ And not having power over the Head, from whom all the body, by all the senses of touch and connections furnished and joined together, increases with the increase of God.

¹¹ Where no Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, servant, free: but Christ all things, and in all.

¹³ (Bearing one another, propitiating one another, if any have a complaint against any: as also Christ propitiated for you, so also ye.)

¹⁵ And let the peace of God act as umpire in your hearts, to which also, ye were called in one body: and be grateful. ¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in, you richly; teaching and reminding one another in all wisdom, playing with harps, and songs, and spiritual odes, with grace singing in your hearts to the Lord. ¹⁷ And all whatever you do in word and in work, all things in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

²⁰ Children, listen to parents in all things: for this is pleasing to the Lord.

⁵ In wisdom walk toward them without, purchasing the time.

⁷ All things concerning me shall Tychicus make known to you, a dearly beloved brother, and a faithful servant and fellowservant in the Lord:

¹² Epaphras, who of you, greets you, a servant of Christ, always contending for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfected and completed in all the will of God.

¹ Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. ² We return thanks to God always for you all, making remembrance of you in our prayers continually; ³ Remembering your work of faith, and fatigue of love, and patience of hope of our Lord Jesus Christ, before God and our Father;

⁵ For our good news was not to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much complete certainty; as we know what we were among you for your sake.

⁹ For ye remember, brethren, our fatigue and toil: for also working night and day, not to overload any of you, we proclaimed to you the good news of God.

¹² For you to walk worthy of God, calling you into his kingdom and glory. ¹³ For this also we return thanks to God continually, that, having received the word of God from our report, ye received not the word of man, but as it is truly, the word of God, which is also energetic in you the believing.

² And sent Timothy, our brother, and servant of God, and our coworker in the good news of Christ, in order to make you firm, and comfort you for your faith ³ For none to be shaken in these pressures: for ye yourselves know that for this we are placed.

³ For none to be shaken in these pressures: for ye yourselves know that for this we are placed. ⁴ For also, when we were with you, we told you before that we were about to be pressed; as also it was, and ye know. ⁵ For this I also, no more concealing, sent to know your faith, lest some way he tempting have tempted you, and our labor be in vain. ⁶ And now Timothy having come to us from you, and having announced to us the good news, your faith and love, and that ye have good remembrance. of us always, greatly desiring to see us, as we also you:

¹⁰ Night and day praying exceedingly to see your face, and to adjust things wanting of your faith? ¹¹ And God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you: ¹² And the Lord increase you and make you to abound in love to one another, and to all, as also we to you: ¹³ To make your hearts firm, complete in holiness before God, and our Father, in the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his holy ones.

¹ Therefore as to the rest, brethren we ask you, and beseech in the Lord Jesus, as ye received from us how ye must walk and please God, that ye may more abound.

⁶ Not to pass over and have the advantage over his brother in business: because the Lord just for all these, as we told you before and testified. ⁷ But God has not called you to uncleanness, but in consecration.

⁹ And for brotherly love ye have no need to write to you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. ¹⁰ For also ye do the same to all the brethren, them in the whole of Macedonia: and we beseech you, brethren, to more abound;

⁸ And we, being of the day, let us be sober, putting on the coat of mail of faith and love; and a helmet, the hope of salvation.

¹² And we ask you, brethren, to know those being fatigued among you, and set over you in the Lord, and reminding you; ¹³ And to think them above ordinary in love for their work. Live in peace in yourselves. ¹⁴ And we beseech you, brethren, remind the disorderly, encourage the timid, sustain the weak, and be slow to anger to all.

¹⁷ Pray continually.

¹ paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

³ We ought to return thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, for your faith increases exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all enlarges to one another;

¹¹ For which also we pray always for you, that our God would deem you worthy of the calling, and fill all the benevolence of goodness, and work of faith in power:

¹³ And we ought to return thanks to God always for you, brethren dearly beloved by the Lord, that God chose you from the beginning to salvation in consecration of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

¹⁶ And our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, also our Father, having loved us, and given us eternal consolation and good hope in grace,

¹⁶ And our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, also our Father, having loved us, and given us eternal consolation and good hope in grace, ¹⁷ Comfort your hearts, and support you in every good word and work.

⁸ Neither ate we the bread of any as a gift; but in fatigue and toil working night and day also, not to overload any of you:

¹ Paul, the sent of Jesus Christ according to the command of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, our hope;

¹² And I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord, having strengthened me, for he deemed me faithful, having set me in the service;

¹⁵ Faithful the word, and worthy of all acceptance, for Christ Jesus came into the world to save the sinful; of whom I am first.

¹⁷ And to the King of times, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, honour and glory for the times of times. Amen.)

⁶ Having given himself a ransom for all, a testimony in his own time. ⁷ For which I was placed a herald, and the sent, (I speak truth in Christ, I lie not;) a teacher of the nations in faith and truth.

² Therefore an overseer must be irreprehensible, husband of one wife, sober, of sound mind, well arranged, hospitable, giving instruction;

¹⁶ And manifestly great is the mystery of devotion: God was manifested in the flesh, was justified in the Spirit, was seen by angels, was proclaimed in the nations, was believed on in the world, was received up in glory.

⁶ These having laid down to the brethren, thou shalt be a good servant of Jesus Christ, brought up in the words of faith and good doctrine, which thou hast closely followed.

¹⁶ Who only having immortality, inhabiting inaccessible light; which none of men saw, nor can see; to whom honour and might forever. Amen.

³ I have grace to God, whom I serve from the forefathers in pure consciousness, as I have continual remembrance concerning thee in my prayers night and day;

³ I have grace to God, whom I serve from the forefathers in pure consciousness, as I have continual remembrance concerning thee in my prayers night and day; ⁴ Desiring earnestly to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;

⁷ For God gave not to us the spirit of timidity; but of power, and love, and of soundness of mind. ⁸ Therefore shouldest thou not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his imprisoned: but partake of afflictions with the good news according to the power of God;

¹⁰ And now made manifest by the appearance of our Saviour Jesus Christ, having truly left death unemployed, and having brought life and immortality to light by the good news: ¹¹ To which I was set a herald, and sent, teacher of the nations. ¹² By which cause I also suffer these things: but I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able to watch my deposits to that day.

¹ Thou therefore, my child, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus. ² And what thou hast heard from me by many witnesses, these things lay by for faithful men, who will be sufficient to teach others also.

² And what thou hast heard from me by many witnesses, these things lay by for faithful men, who will be sufficient to teach others also. ³ Thou therefore suffer ill treatment, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. ⁴ None making war is entangled with the affairs of life: that he may please him having enlisted him.

⁹ In which I suffer ill treatment, to bonds, as an evil doer; but the word of God has not been bound. ¹⁰ For this I endure all things for the chosen, that they also might attain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

¹⁰ For this I endure all things for the chosen, that they also might attain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

²⁴ And the servant of the Lord must not contend; but be gentle to all, giving instruction, enduring evil, ²⁵ In meekness instructing them being in a contrary state; lest perhaps God may give them repentance to the acknowledgment of the truth;

² Proclaim the word; keep fixed seasonably, and unseasonably; refute, censure, beseech, in all longsnffering and teaching. ³ For the time will be when they will not hear sound doctrine; but according to their own eager desires they will heap up to themselves teachers, feeling itchings for a report; ⁴ And truly from the truth will they turn away the hearing, and be turned aside to fictions. ⁵ And thou be sober in all things, suffer ill treatment, do the work of the bearer of good news, render thy service perfectly certain.

⁵ And thou be sober in all things, suffer ill treatment, do the work of the bearer of good news, render thy service perfectly certain. ⁶ For I am already poured out, and the time of my deliverance has been fixed.

⁸ As to the rest, the crown of justice is laid up for me, which the Lord will assign to me in that day, the just judge: and not only to me, but also to all them having loved his appearance.

² In hope of eternal life, (which God, not false, promised before eternal times;

¹⁵ All things truly pure to the pure: and to the defiled and unbelieving nothing pure; but also their mind and consciousness are defiled. ¹⁶ They confess to know God; and in works they deny, being abominable, and disobedient, and to every good work not tried.

¹¹ For the grace of God who saves, was manifested to all men, ¹² Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and eager worldly desires, we should live discreetly, and justly, and religiously, in the time now;

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

¹ PAUL, imprisoned of Jesus Christ, 'Timothy the brother, to Philemon, dearly beloved, and cooperating,

⁴ I thank my God, always making remembrance of thee in my prayers, ⁵ Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast to the Lord Jesus, and to all the holy;

²³ Epaphras greets thee, my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus;

² At these last days spake to us in the Son, whom he set heir of all things, by whom also he made the times; ³ Who being the brightness of glory, and the figure of his foundation, and bearing all things by the word of his power, having made by himself the purification of our sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty among the highest ones;

⁵ For to which of the angels once said he, Thou art my Son, I have this day begotten thee? And again, I will be to him for Father, and he shall be to me for Son? ⁶ And when again he should bring in the firstborn to the habitable globe, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.

⁶ And when again he should bring in the firstborn to the habitable globe, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.

¹⁰ And, Thou, at the beginning, Lord, didst lay the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the work of thy hands: ¹¹ These shall be destroyed; but thou remainest; and they all as a garment shall grow old; ¹² And as a cloak shalt thou turn them round, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

¹⁰ For it became him, for whom all things, and by whom all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the chief of their salvation by sufferings.

¹⁴ Since therefore the young children participated in flesh and blood, he also likewise participated with them; that by death he might leave unemployed him having the strength of death, that is, the devil;

¹⁷ Wherefore in all things it was necessary to be made like to the brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful chief priest in things towards God, in order to propitiate for the sin of the people.

¹ Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, observe the sent and Chief Priest of our assent, Christ Jesus; ² Faithful to him having made him, as also Moses in his whole house. ³ For this was deemed worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he has greater honour of the house having built it. ⁴ For every house is built by somebody; and he having built all things, God.

⁶ And Christ as a son over his house: whose house are we, if we should hold freedom of speech and the boast of hope firm to the end.

¹⁴ For we have been partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our foundation firm to the end;

¹⁴ Having therefore a great chief priest, passed to the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, we should hold firmly the assent.

¹⁰ For God is not unjust to forget your work and fatigue of love, which ye showed to his name, having served to the holy ones, and serving.

¹⁹ Which we have as an anchor of the soul, unshaken and firm, and entering into that further within the veil.;

¹⁹ (For the law completed nothing,) but the bringing in of a better hope; by which we draw near to God.

¹² Neither by the blood of he-goats and calves, and by his own blood he went in once for all to the holies, having found eternal deliverance.

²² And almost all things are purified according to the law with blood; and without blood-letting there is no remission.

¹⁰ In which will we are consecrated by the bringing in of the body of Jesus Christ once.

¹² But this, having brought in one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God; ¹³ As to the rest, awaiting till his enemies be put a footstool of his feet. ¹⁴ For by one offering has he perfected forever the consecrated.

³⁴ For ye also suffered together with me in bonds, and received the pillage of your possessions with joy, knowing to have in yourselves a better and abiding substance in the heavens. ³⁵ Throw not away therefore your freedom of speech, which has great payment of reward. ³⁶ For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

³⁶ For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. ³⁷ For yet a little while only, he coming will come, and will not tarry. ³⁸ And the just one shall live by faith; but if he draw down, my soul is not contented in him.

²⁷ By faith he forsook Egypt, not having feared the king's wrath: for, as seeing the invisible, he was strong.

³⁴ Quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were strengthened from weakness, were strong in war, turned away the armies of strangers. ³⁵ Women received their dead from rising up: and others were beaten, not receiving redemption; that they might attain a better resurrection. ³⁶ And others received trial of jestings and scourges, and further, of bonds and imprisonment: ³⁷ They were stoned, they were cut by sawing, they were tried, they died by the slaughter of the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being in want, pressed, treated ill; ³⁸ (Of whom the world was not worthy:) wandering about in solitary places, and mountains, and caves, and holes of the earth.

¹ Wherefore we also having such a cloud of witnesses lying round about us, having laid down every weight, and sin easily captivating, by patience we should run the race set before us, ² Looking in the distance to Jesus the author and completer of the faith; who for the joy laid before him endured the cross, having despised the shame, and sat down on the right hand of the throne of God.

⁴ Ye have not yet resisted until blood, fighting against sin.

²³ To the assembly of people, and church of the firstborn, transcribed in the heavens, and to God the Judge of all, and. to the spirits of the just perfected,

⁸ Jesus Christ, yesterday, and to day the same, and for ever.

¹⁶ And the doing good and mutual participation forget not; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

²⁰ And the God of peace, having brought up from the dead, the great Shepherd of the sheep, in the blood of the eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus Christ, ²¹ Put you in proper order in every good work for doing his will, doing in you the thing pleasing before him, by Jesus Christ; to whom glory for the time of times. Amen.

²¹ Put you in proper order in every good work for doing his will, doing in you the thing pleasing before him, by Jesus Christ; to whom glory for the time of times. Amen.

² Deem all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various trials;

² Deem all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various trials; ³ Knowing that the proof of your faith works patience. ⁴ And let patience have a perfect work, that ye be perfect and entire, being left behind in nothing. ⁵ If any of you is forsaken of wisdom, let him ask of God, giving to all plainly, blaming not; and it shall be given him.

⁹ With it we praise the God and Father; and with it we curse men, those made according to the similitude of God.

¹⁷ And the wisdom from above is truly first pure, then peaceful, decorous, docile, full of mercy and good fruits, not separated, and unfeigned.

⁴ Adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is the enmity of God? whoever therefore would wish to be the friend of the world is set the enemy of God.

⁷ Therefore be longsuffering, brethren, even to the arrival of the Lord. Behold, the farmer awaits the precious fruit of the earth, being longsuffering for it, even till he should receive the early and late rain. ⁸ Be longsuffering, ye also; make your hearts firm: for the arrival of the Lord has drawn near.

² According to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the consecration of the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you, and peace, be multiplied.

⁵ Who by the power of God watching ourselves by faith to salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

¹⁹ But with precious blood, as of a lamb blameless and spotless, of Christ: ²⁰ Known truly before the foundation of the world, and made manifest in the last times for you, ²¹ Who by him believing in God, having raised him from the dead, and having given him glory; that your faith and hope should be in God. ²² Having purified your souls in the hearing of the truth by the Spirit to unfeigned brotherly love, out of pure hearts love ye one another cordially:

²² Having purified your souls in the hearing of the truth by the Spirit to unfeigned brotherly love, out of pure hearts love ye one another cordially: ²³ Begotten again, not of corrupted seed, but uncorrupted, by the word of God, living and remaining forever.

² As new born babes, long for the sincere milk pertaining to the word, that ye might be nourished with it:

⁹ And ye a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for acquisition; so that ye should proclaim the excellencies of him having called you out of darkness into his wonderful light:

¹⁵ (For so is the will of God, those doing good to silence the want of knowledge of the foolish men:)

¹⁵ And consecrate the Lord God in your hearts: and being ready always for a justification to every one asking you the word of the hope in you with meekness and fear:

¹⁸ For Christ also once suffered for sins, the just one for the unjust, that he might bring us near to God, truly put to death in the flesh, and made alive by the Spirit:

²² Who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers subjected to him.

² That no more to the eager desires of men, but to the will of God, should he live the remaining time in the flesh.

¹ The elders among you I beseech, a fellow elder, and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a participator of the glory which is about to be revealed:

¹² By Silvanus, to you the faithful brother, as I reckon, I wrote briefly, beseeching, and bearing testimony this to be the true grace of God in which ye stand.

² May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

² May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, ³ As his divine power having bestowed upon us all things which for life and devotion, by the knowledge of him having called us by glory and fitness:

⁶ And in knowledge self-control; and in self-control patience; and in patience devotion;

⁸ For these being to you, and abounding, they establish you not without effort, neither unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹¹ For so shall an entrance be furnished richly to you in addition into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

¹⁸ For speaking excessive things of vanity, they decoy with the eager desires of the flesh, for licentiousness, them having truly escaped from those turned back in error. ¹⁹ Promising them liberty, they being servants of corruption: for by whom any is conquered, by him has he been made to serve. ²⁰ For if having escaped the pollutions of the world by the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and again entangling with these, they be conquered, the last things have been to them worse than the first. ²¹ For it was better for them not to have known the way of justice, than, having known, to turn back from the holy command delivererd to them. ²² And that of the true proverb has happened to them, The dog having turned back to his own vomit; and the sow having been washed to the rolling of the mire.

¹⁴ Wherefore, dearly beloved, expecting these, be earnest, spotless and blameless, to be found by him in peace. ¹⁵ And the longsuffering of our Lord deem ye salvation; as also our dearly beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you;

¹⁸ And grow ye in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him the glory now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

¹ What was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we beheld, and our own hands felt, concerning the word of life;

³ What we have seen and heard we announce to you, that ye also might have communion with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

⁹ If we acknowledge our sins, he is faithful and just that he let go sins to us, and cleanse us from all injustice.

² And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

⁸ Again, I write a new command to you, which is true in him and in you: for the darkness is passed away, and the true light already shines.

¹² I write to you, little children, for your sins are let go for his name.

¹⁷ And the world passes away, and its eager desires: but he doing the will of God remains for ever.

²⁷ And the anointing which ye received from him remains in you, and ye have no need that any teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is true, and is no lie, and as it taught you, ye shall remain in him.

¹ See ye, what kind of love the Father has given us, that we should be called the children of God: for this the world knows us not, for it knew him not. ² Dearly beloved, now are we the children of God, and it has not yet been manifested what we shall be: and we know that, if he be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. ³ And every one having this hope in him purifies himself, as he himself is pure.

³ And every one having this hope in him purifies himself, as he himself is pure.

⁸ He doing sin is of the accuser; for the accuser sins from the beginning. For this was the Son of God manifested, that he might loose the works of the accuser.

¹⁴ We know that we have passed from death to life, for we love the brethren. He not loving the brother remains in death.

²² And whatever we ask, we receive of him, for we keep his commands, and do things pleasing before him. ²³ And this is his command, That we believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us command.

⁴ Ye are of God, little children, and have conquered them: for greater is he in you, than he in the world.

⁹ In this was the love of God manifested in us, that God has sent his only born Son into the world, that we might live by him. ¹⁰ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son a propitiation for our sins.

¹⁶ And we have known and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love; and he remaining in love remains in God, and God in him.

²⁰ And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, and we know him true, and we are in him true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

³ For I was greatly rejoiced, the brethren coming and testifying to thy truth, as thou walkest about in the truth. ⁴ I have no joy greater than these that I hear my children walking in truth.

² Mercy to you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.

²⁴ And to him able to watch yourselves from falling, and to place blameless before his glory with transport of joy, ²⁵ To the only wise God our Saviour, glory and majesty, and strength and power, also for now and for all times. Amen.

⁴ John to the seven churches which in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from him who being, and who was, and who coming; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne ⁵ And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first born from the dead, and the chief of the kings of the earth. To him having loved us, and washed us from our sins in his blood,

⁸ I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, says the Lord, who being, and who was, and who coming, the Omnipotent Ruler.

¹¹ I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which in Asia; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.

¹⁷ And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he put his right hand upon me, saying to me, Be not afraid;I am the the first and the last: ¹⁸ And he living, and I was dead; and, behold, I am living for the times of times, Amen; and have the keys of hades and of death.

³ And thou hast borne, and thou hast patience, and for my name hast thou been wearied, and thou hast not been broken by toil.

⁸ And to the messenger of the church of the Smyrnians write; Thus says the first and the last, who was dead and he lived;

¹⁰ Neither be afraid of what things thou art about to suffer: behold, the accuser is about to cast of you into prison, that ye might be tried; and ye shall have pressure ten days: be thou faithful until death, and I will give thee the crown of life.

¹⁴ And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; Thus says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

²⁰ Behold, I stand before the door, and knock: and if any hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

⁹ And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open its seals: for thou wert slain, and didst purchase us to God by thy blood from every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

⁹ And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open its seals: for thou wert slain, and didst purchase us to God by thy blood from every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation; ¹⁰ And madest us kings and priests to our God: and we shall reign upon the earth. ¹¹ And I saw, and heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders: and their number was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands; ¹² Saying with a great voice, Worthy is the Lamb slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and praise. ¹³ And every creature which is in heaven, and in earth, and under the earth, and upon the sea, which are, and all things in them, heard I saying, To him sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb, praise, and honour, and glory, and strength, for the times of times.

¹³ And every creature which is in heaven, and in earth, and under the earth, and upon the sea, which are, and all things in them, heard I saying, To him sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb, praise, and honour, and glory, and strength, for the times of times. ¹⁴ And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the twentyfour elders fell and worshipped him living for the times of times.

¹⁵ And the seventh angel sounded the trumpet; and great voices were in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of the world were our Lord's, and his Christ's; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

⁴ There are they who were not contaminated by women; for they are virgins. These are they following the Lamb wherever he should lead. These were purchased from men, first fruits to God and the Lamb.

¹² Here is the patience of the holy: here they keeping the commands of God, and the faith of Jesus.

⁶ And he said to me, It has been. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to him thirsting of the fountain of the water of life gratuitously.

²³ And the city has no need of the sun, nor of the moon, that they shine in her: for the glory of God enlightened her, and her light the Lamb.

²³ And the city has no need of the sun, nor of the moon, that they shine in her: for the glory of God enlightened her, and her light the Lamb. ²⁴ And the nations of the saved shall walk about in her light: and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honour into her.

⁵ And night shall not be there; and they have no need of a lamp, and the light of the sun; for the Lord God shall enlighten them: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

¹³ I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. ¹⁴ Happy they doing his commands, that their power shall be in the tree of life, and they might come in at the gates to the city.
