¹² And may the Lord increase in you and this increase to abound in love toward one another and toward all men, just-as we also do toward you;

⁷ For God did not call us in uncleanness, but in holiness.

¹³ But we ought to thank God always concerning you brethren, beloved by the Lord, that God himself selected you from the beginning to salvation in holiness of the Spirit and in faith of the truth; ¹⁴ to which he called you through our good-news, for the acquisition of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁹ who 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 times everlasting,

⁵ Now also for this same thing, besides having entered in all diligence, supply in your faith, virtue, and in your virtue, knowledge ⁶ and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, endurance, and in your endurance, godliness; ⁷ and in your godliness, brotherly-love, and in your brotherly-love, love. ⁸ For if these things are existing and increasing in you, none will designate you idle or unfruitful toward the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For the one is blind in whom these things are not present, being short-sighted, having taken on himself the forgetfulness of the cleansing from his old sins.
¹⁰ Hence brethren, be more diligent to make your calling and choice steadfast; for, you may never trip someday while practicing these things;

¹⁴ Hence, beloved, while expecting these things, be diligent that you may be found in peace, unstained and unblemished in his sight.

⁸ And all who are dwelling upon the earth will be worshiping him, everyone whose name has not been written in the Book of Life of the lamb, who has been slaughtered from the conception of the world.

⁴ Will you not from this time cry to me, My Father, you are the guide of my youth?

³⁵ And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing and he does according to his will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. And none can stay his hand, or say to him, What are you doing?

⁵² and not only on behalf of the nation, but in order that he should also gather together into one the children of God who have been scattered.)

¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the spirit of sonship, in which we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶ The Spirit himself is testifying together with our spirit, that we are children of God; ¹⁷ and if children, then heirs; indeed, heirs of God and joint heirs of Christ; if indeed we are suffering together with him, in order that we might also be glorified together with him.

²³ But not only they, but we ourselves also who have the first-fruit of the Spirit, even we ourselves are groaning in ourselves, waiting for our sonship, that is, the redemption of our body.

¹¹ for the children not yet having been born, nor having practiced anything good or evil, in order that the purpose of God according to his choice might abide, not from works, but from the one who is calling. ¹² It was said to her, ‘The greater will be serving the inferior.’ ¹³ Just-as it has been written, ‘Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.’
¹⁴ Therefore what shall we say? There is not unrighteousness with God, is there? Let it not happen! ¹⁵ For he says to Moses, ‘I will show-mercy to whomever I show-mercy and I will have pity on whomever I have pity.’ ¹⁶ Therefore consequently, it is not from the one who wills, nor from the one who runs, but from God, the one who shows-mercy.

¹ Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,

²¹ For since, in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, it delighted God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

¹⁸ and will be a Father to you and you will be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.’

²⁶ For you are all sons of God, through the faith, in Christ Jesus.

⁵ in order that he might buy those up who were under the law, in order that we might receive the sonship. \ulnone\nosupersub ⁶ And because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

⁹ having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his delight which he purposed in him,

¹¹ In him in whom, we were also made an inheritance, having been predetermined according to the purpose of the one who is working all things after the plan of his will.

¹³ For it is God who is working in you both to will and to work, on behalf of his delight.

¹¹ For which, we are also always praying concerning you, in order that our God might deem you worthy of your calling, and might fulfill every delight of goodness, and every work of faith in power,

¹⁰ For it was suitable for him, because of whom are all things and through whom are all things, having led many sons to glory, to complete the author of their salvation through sufferings. ¹¹ For both he who is making holy and those who are made holy are all from one. Because of which case, he is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹² saying, ‘I will be proclaiming your name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will be singing hymns to you.’ ¹³ And again, ‘I will have confidence in him.’And again, ‘Behold, here I am and the children whom God has given me.’ ¹⁴ Therefore since the children have shared of flesh and blood, in like-manner he partook of the same; in order that through death, he might do-away-with the one who had the dominion of death, this is the devil; ¹⁵ and he might set-free these, as many as were in fear of death, who were liable to bondage throughout all their life.

⁵ And you have forgotten the encouragement which reasons with you as with sons, ‘My son, do not regard-lightly the disciplining of the Lord, nor be fainting when you are reproved by him. ⁶ For whom the Lord loves, he disciplines, and scourges every son whom he is accepting.’ ⁷ It is for disciplining that you endure; God is dealing with you as with sons; for what is the son whom his father is not disciplining? ⁸ But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, consequently, you are illegitimate and not sons. ⁹ Thereafter, we have indeed had the fathers of our flesh as correctors of us, and we were revering them. Will we not much rather be made subject to the Father of spirits and we will live?

¹ Behold what sort of love the Father has given to us, in order that we might be called children of God. Because of this, the world does not know you, because it did not know him.

⁷ He who overcomes will be inheriting these things, and I will be his God and he will be a son to me.

²⁰ Deliver my soul from the sword, the only one of me from the power of the dog.

⁵ That your beloved ones may be delivered, save with your right hand and answer us.

³⁰ then I was by him, a master workman. And I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him, ³¹ rejoicing in his habitable earth. And my delight was with the sons of men.

⁴ Jehovah has made everything for its own end, yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.

²¹ the people whom I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.

²⁴ Only in Jehovah, it is said of me, is righteousness and strength. Even to him men will come and all those who were incensed against him will be put to shame. ²⁵ In Jehovah all the seed of Israel will be justified and will glory.

¹ Listen, O isles, to me and listen, you* peoples from far. Jehovah has called me from the womb. From the guts of my mother he has made mention of my name. ² And he has made my mouth like a sharp sword. He has hid me in the shadow of his hand and he has made me a polished shaft. He has kept me close in his quiver.
³ And he said to me, You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.

³ to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.

¹¹ For as the earth brings forth its bud and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so the lord Jehovah will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

⁶ In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will dwell safely. And this is his name by which he will be called: Jehovah our righteousness.

⁹ And this city will be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure to it.

⁷ Awake, O sword, against my shepherd and against the man who is my companion, says Jehovah of hosts. Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered. And I will turn my hand upon the little ones.

¹⁷ and behold, a voice came out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted.

⁵ While he is still speaking, behold, a radiant cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted; hear him!

¹⁴ Glory to God in the highest, and peace upon earth, in men–delight.

³⁵ The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.

¹⁷ Because of this, the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, in order that I may again take it.

²² even the righteousness of God through faith of Jesus Christ toward all and upon all those who believe; for there is no distinction; ²³ for all have sinned and come-short of the glory of God. ²⁴ All those who believe, being made righteous freely by his grace, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, ²⁵ whom God purposed as an atonement through the faith in his blood in an example of his righteousness, because of the passing over of the sins, having been done beforehand, ²⁶ (in the forbearance of God), even toward the example of his righteousness in this current time, that he may himself be righteous and who is making righteous the one from the faith of Jesus.

¹⁵ But not like the trespass, so also is the gift. For if the many died by the trespass of the one, the favor of God and the gift by the favor of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded much more to the many. ¹⁶ Now the gift is not as through one who sinned; for indeed the judgment came from one into condemnation, but the gift came from many trespasses into an act of righteousness. ¹⁷ For if, by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; much more they, who are receiving the abundance of the favor and of the gift of righteousness, will be reigning in life through the one, who is Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ Therefore consequently, as through one trespass the judgment came to all men to condemnation; so through the righteousness of one man the gift also came to all men into justification of life. ¹⁹ For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were designated as sinners, so also through the obedience of the one the many will be designated as righteous.

¹⁵ For all things are because of you, in order that the grace which increased through the many, the thanksgiving may abound to the glory of God.

⁷ in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses according to the riches of his grace. ⁸ The grace which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,

¹² That we should be for the praise of his glory, we who have hoped before in the Christ,

¹⁴ which is a down-payment of our inheritance, to the redemption of the ownership of God to the praise of his glory.

¹⁸ the eyes of your heart having been enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance among the holy-ones,

⁷ in order that in the coming ages, he might show the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness upon us in Christ Jesus.

¹⁰ in order that now the multifaceted wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the authorities in the heavenly places through the congregation of believers. \ulnone\nosupersub ¹¹ This was according to the everlasting purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord;

¹¹ having been filled with the fruits of righteousness, which is through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

⁹ and may be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, which is from the law, but which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is from God on the faith,

¹⁹ Now my God will be filling every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

¹³ He rescued us out of the authority of darkness and transplanted us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;

⁸ giving vengeance in a fire of flame to those who do not know God and to those who are not obeying the good-news of our Lord Jesus Christ, ⁹ who will be suffering-punishment, the sentence of everlasting utter-destruction away from the face of the Lord, and away from the glory of his strength, ¹⁰ whenever he may come to be glorified in his holy-ones, and to be marveled at in that day in all those who have believed, (because our testimony to you was believed).

¹⁴ and the grace of our Lord overwhelmed me with the faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. ¹⁵ Faithful is the word and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am foremost. ¹⁶ But I was shown-mercy because of this, in order that Jesus Christ might show all his patience in me as foremost, for a pattern of those who are afterward about to believe on him for everlasting life.

⁵ You, yourselves, like living stones, are also built up as a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

¹¹ If anyone is speaking, speak as the oracles of God; if anyone is serving, serve as from the strength which God is supplying; in order that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ to whom is the glory and the dominion forevermore. Amen.

⁷ keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin and who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons and upon the sons' sons, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

²⁴ then God is gracious to him and says, Deliver him from going down to the pit; I have found a ransom.

¹ Those whose transgression is forgiven are fortunate, whose sin is covered. ² The man to whom Jehovah does not reckon sin and in whose spirit there is no deceit is fortunate.

⁵ Because you, Lord, are good and ready to forgive and abundant in loving kindness to all those who call upon you.

⁴ But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be feared.

⁷ O Israel, hope in Jehovah, because there is loving kindness with Jehovah and plentiful redemption is with him.

²⁵ I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake and I will not remember your sins.

⁶ Seek Jehovah while he may be found. Call you* upon him while he is near. ⁷ Let the wicked man forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts. And let him return to Jehovah and he will have mercy upon him and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

³⁴ And they will teach no more every man his neighbor and every man his brother, saying, Know Jehovah, for they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says Jehovah. For I will forgive their iniquity and I will remember their sin no more.

⁹ To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him,

¹⁹ O Lord, hear. O Lord, forgive. O Lord, listen and do. Defer not, for your own sake, O my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.

²⁴ Seventy weeks are decreed upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish transgression and to make an end of sins and to make reconciliation for iniquity and to bring in everlasting righteousness and to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy.
²⁵ Know therefore and discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the anointed one, the Prince, will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be built again, with street and moat, even in troublesome times.
²⁶ And after the sixty-two weeks the anointed one will be cut off and will have nothing. And the people of the prince who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary and the end of it will be with a flood. And even to the end will be war; desolations are determined.

² And he prayed to Jehovah and said, I beseech you, O Jehovah, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hastened to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abundant in loving kindness and relent you of the evil.

¹⁸ Who is a God like to you, who pardons iniquity and passes over the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.

¹¹ As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.

¹ In that day there will be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

²⁸ just-like the Son of Man did not come to be served to, but to serve and to give his life as a redemption in exchange-for many.

²⁸ for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out on behalf of many into the forgiveness of sins.

²⁴ And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new covenant, which is poured out concerning many.

⁷⁷ You are to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins,

⁴⁰ And Jesus answered and said to him, Simon, I have something to say to you.
But he says, Teacher, say it.
⁴¹ There was two debtors to a lender: a certain one was owing five hundred denarii and the other fifty. ⁴² But when they did not have anything to repay him with, he forgave them both. Therefore, tell me which of them will love him most?

⁴⁷ Because of which, I say to you, Her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, because she loved much, but to whom few is forgiven, the same loves few. ⁴⁸ Now he said to her, Your sins have been forgiven.
⁴⁹ And those who reclined at the meal together with him began to speak among themselves, Who is this one, who forgives even sins?
⁵⁰ But he said to the woman, Your faith has saved you. Travel in peace.

⁴⁷ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

²³ If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven to them by God; if you hold-fast anyone’s sins, those sins have been held-fast.

³⁸ Now Peter said to them, Repent and be immersed each one of you in the name of Jesus Christ into the forgiveness of your sins, and you will be receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit. \super{F}

¹⁹ Therefore, repent and turn again, that your sins may be wiped-away, that seasons of refreshment may come from the presence of the Lord;

⁴³ To this one, all the prophets are testifying, that through his name everyone who believes in him will be receiving forgiveness of sins.

³⁸ Therefore brethren, let it be known to you that forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you through this one; ³⁹ and everyone who believes is made righteous in this one; you were not able to be made righteous from all the things of which were in the Law of Moses.

²⁸ Therefore, take-heed to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit placed you as overseers, to shepherd the congregation of the Lord and God, which the Lord acquired through his own blood.

⁴ Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, being ignorant that the kindness of God is leading you to repentance?

²⁴ All those who believe, being made righteous freely by his grace, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus,

⁶ Just-as David also says concerning the good-fortune of the man to whom God counts righteousness separate from works, ⁷ saying, ‘Those whose lawlessnesses are forgiven and whose sins are covered are fortunate. ⁸ The man to whom the Lord may never count sin, is fortunate.’ ⁹ Therefore is this good-fortune upon the circumcision or also upon the uncircumcision? For we say that his faith was counted to Abraham for righteousness.

²³ and in order that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,

⁹ For you know the favor of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet he became-poor because of you, in order that you might be enriched through that poverty.

⁶ to the praise of the glory of his favor, in which he has favored us in the beloved,

⁴ But God, being rich in mercy, because of his much love with which he loved us,

⁸ This grace was given to me the least of all the holy-ones, to proclaim the good-news of the untraceable riches of Christ among the Gentiles;

¹⁶ in order that he may give to you, according to the riches of his glory, to be powerful with his power, through his Spirit in the inward man;

¹⁴ in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins,

²⁷ To whom God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, who is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

¹³ And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses;

⁶ who gave himself as a ransom on behalf of all; the testimony given in its own times;

¹⁴ who gave himself on our behalf, in order that he might redeem us away from all lawlessness and might cleanse a treasured people for himself, zealous of good works.

⁶ which he poured out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;

¹² nor through the blood of male-goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the holy of holies, having found everlasting redemption. ¹³ For if the blood of male-goats and oxen and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling those who have been desecrated, makes one holy toward the cleanness of the flesh; ¹⁴ how much more the blood of Christ, (who through the everlasting Spirit offered himself unblemished to God), will be cleansing your conscience from dead works, that you may give-divine service to the living God.
¹⁵ And because of this, he is the intermediary of a new covenant, that his death having happened for the redemption of the transgressions that were against the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance.

²² And according to the law, I may say, almost all things are cleansed in blood and no forgiveness happens without the shedding of blood.

⁴ For it is impossible that the blood of oxen and male-goats should take away sins. ⁵ Hence when he enters into the world, he says, ‘You did not wish to have sacrifice and offering, but you, yourself, completed a body for me. ⁶ You were not delighted in whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices concerning sin. ⁷ Then I said, (as it has been written concerning me in the volume of the book), Behold, I am coming to do your will, O God.’ ⁸ After saying this above, You do not wish, nor were you delighted in sacrifice and offering and whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices concerning sin, (which are offered according to the law), ⁹ then he has said, ‘Behold, I am coming to do your will, O God.’He assassinates
the first covenant, in order that he should establish the second covenant, ¹⁰ in which will, we have been made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. ¹¹ And indeed every priest stands every day ministering and often offering the same sacrifices, which are never able to take away sins. ¹² But having offered one continual sacrifice on behalf of sins, he sat down at the right hand of God;

¹⁷ And ‘I may never remember their sins and their lawlessness anymore.’ ¹⁸ Now where the forgiveness of these is, there is no more an offering concerning sin.

¹⁸ knowing that you were redeemed from your futile conduct handed down from your forefathers not with corruptible things like with silver or with gold. ¹⁹ But like that of an unblemished and unstained lamb, you were redeemed by the precious blood of Christ,

²⁴ who, himself, carried our sins in his body upon the tree, in order that we might live to righteousness, having died to our sins; by whose wound s you were healed.

¹⁸ Because Christ also suffered once for all on behalf of our sins, the righteous on behalf of the unrighteous, in order that he might lead you to God; having indeed been slain in the flesh, but was given-life in the Spirit;

⁷ But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son is cleansing us from every sin. ⁸ If we should say that we have no sin, we are misleading ourselves and the truth is not in us. ⁹ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

² And he is the atonement concerning our sins, but not concerning ours only, but also concerning the whole world.

¹² I am writing to you, my little-children, because your sins have been forgiven to you through his name.

¹⁰ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atonement on behalf of our sins.

⁹ And they are singing a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals, because you were slaughtered and bought us in your blood for God out of every tribe and language and people and nation.

⁴ These are those who were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are those who are following the Lamb wherever he goes. These were bought by Jesus from mankind, as the first-fruit to God and to the Lamb,

²⁴ O Jehovah, how great are your works! You have made them all in wisdom. The earth is full of your riches.

¹² I, wisdom, have made prudence my dwelling and find out knowledge and discretion.

¹³ Behold, my servant will deal wisely. He will be exalted and lifted up and will be very high.

²⁰ Daniel answered and said, Praise the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are his. ²¹ And he changes the times and the seasons. He removes kings and sets up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.

¹⁹ The Son of Man came eating and drinking and they say, Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners! And wisdom was made righteous from her children.

¹⁵ But not like the trespass, so also is the gift. For if the many died by the trespass of the one, the favor of God and the gift by the favor of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded much more to the many.

²⁰ But the law entered in beside us, in order that the trespass might increase, but where sin increased, the favor over-abounded; ²¹ in order that, just-as sin reigned in death, so also the favor might also reign through righteousness to everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

³³ O the depth of the riches, and of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and untraceable his ways!

¹⁹ For it has been written, ‘I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and I will reject the understanding of the intelligent ones.’ ²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has God not made the wisdom of the world foolish? ²¹ For since, in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, it delighted God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe. ²² Since both Jews ask for a sign and Greeks seek wisdom; ²³ but we preach Christ as having been crucified, indeed an offense to the Jews, but foolishness to the Greeks; ²⁴ but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

⁷ but we are speaking God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom which has been hidden, which God predetermined before the ages, for our glory.

³ in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.

²⁵ to the only wise God our Savior, is the glory and majesty, dominion and authority, both now and forever. Amen.

{Footnotes: Jude 1:14, or: with tens of thousands of his holy-ones; or: with his holy tens of thousands.}

¹² saying in a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb who has been slaughtered to receive the power and the riches, and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and thanks.

¹³ But he is in one mind and who can turn him? And what his soul desires, even that he does. ¹⁴ For he performs what is appointed for me. And many such things are with him.

¹¹ The counsel of Jehovah stands fast everlasting, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

²⁴ Jehovah of hosts has sworn, saying, Surely, as I have thought, so will it happen and as I have purposed, so will it stand, ²⁵ that I will break the Assyrian in my land and tread him under foot upon my mountains. Then will his yoke depart from them and his burden depart from their shoulder.
²⁶ This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. ²⁷ For Jehovah of hosts has purposed and who will annul it? And his hand is stretched out and who will turn it back?

¹⁰ declaring the end from the beginning and from long-ago things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel will stand and I will do all my pleasure, ¹¹ calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. Yes, I have spoken. I will also make it occur. I have purposed. I will also do it.

²⁹ Why will you* contend with me? You* have all transgressed against me, says Jehovah.

³⁷ Who is he that says and it happens, when the Lord does not command it? ³⁸ Out of the mouth of the Most High does there not come evil and good?

¹¹ But he answered and said to them, It has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but it has not given to those men.

²³ being given up by what had been determined by the plan and foreknowledge of God, you assassinated him, having taken him and fastened him to a cross through lawless hands;

²⁸ to do as many things as your hand and your council predetermined to happen.

²⁸ Now we know that all things work together toward good, to those who love God, to those who are an invited one according to his purpose.

²⁵ (14:24) Now to the one who is able to establish you^\'b0 according to my good-news and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept-silent in times everlasting, \ulnone\nosupersub ²⁶ (14:25) but now having been manifested and by the prophetic Scriptures, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, has made known to all the nations, into the obedience of the faith; \ulnone\nosupersub ²⁷ (14:26) to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, in whom is the glory is forever. Amen.

¹⁰ But God revealed them to us through his Spirit; for the Spirit is searching all things, even the depths of God. ¹¹ For who from men knows the things of a man, except the spirit of the man, which is in him? So also, no one knows the things of God, except the Spirit of God. ¹² But we did not receive the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God; in order that we might know the things which were granted to us by God.

¹² For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

¹⁶ to reveal his Son in me, in order that I may proclaim the good-news of him among the nations. Immediately, I did not consult with flesh and blood; ¹⁷ in order that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full knowledge of him, ¹⁸ the eyes of your heart having been enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance among the holy-ones,

³ that he made known the mystery to me according to revelation, just-as I wrote before in few words, ⁴ to which, you are able, by reading it, to perceive my understanding in the mystery of the Christ; ⁵ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations, as it now was revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit. ⁶ The mystery is that the Gentiles are to be joint heirs and a joint body and joint partakers of his promise in the Christ through the good-news, ⁷ of which I became a servant, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power. ⁸ This grace was given to me the least of all the holy-ones, to proclaim the good-news of the untraceable riches of Christ among the Gentiles; ⁹ and to enlighten all with what the stewardship of the mystery is, of which has been hidden from the ages, in God who created all things through Jesus Christ;

¹¹ This was according to the everlasting purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord;

²⁶ the mystery that has been hidden away from the ages and away from the generations, but now it has been manifested to his holy-ones. ²⁷ To whom God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, who is Christ in you, the hope of glory. ²⁸ The Christ whom we are proclaiming, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, in order that we should present every man complete in Christ Jesus;

¹⁶ And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness : God was manifested in the flesh, was made righteous in the Spirit, was seen by messengers, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was received up in glory.

¹⁰ The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs and to him will the obedience of the peoples be.

² And it will happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah's house will be established on the top of the mountains and will be exalted above the hills and all nations will flow to it. ³ And many peoples will go and say, Come and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion will go forth the law and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
⁴ And he will judge between the nations and will decide concerning many peoples and they will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning-hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war any more.

⁴⁴ And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will the sovereignty of it be left to another people, but it will break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms and it will stand forever.

²⁴ Seventy weeks are decreed upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish transgression and to make an end of sins and to make reconciliation for iniquity and to bring in everlasting righteousness and to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy.
²⁵ Know therefore and discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the anointed one, the Prince, will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be built again, with street and moat, even in troublesome times.
²⁶ And after the sixty-two weeks the anointed one will be cut off and will have nothing. And the people of the prince who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary and the end of it will be with a flood. And even to the end will be war; desolations are determined. ²⁷ And he will make a firm covenant with many for one week. And in the midst of the week he will cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease. And upon the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate. And even to the full end and that determined, wrath will be poured out upon the desolate.

¹¹ In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David that has fallen and close up the breaches of it. And I will raise up its ruins and I will build it as in the days of old,

¹ But in the latter days it will happen, that the mountain of Jehovah's house will be established on the top of the mountains and it will be exalted above the hills and peoples will flow to it.
² And many nations will go and say, Come and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah and to the house of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion will go forth the law and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

¹ Behold, I send my messenger and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord, whom you* seek, will suddenly come to his temple. And the messenger of the covenant, whom you* desire, behold, he comes, says Jehovah of hosts.

³² and all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will be separating them one from another, like the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;

¹⁵ and saying, The time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the good-news.

{Joh 4:46-54 Cana.}

{Luk 4:16-31.}

{Mat 4:13-16 Capernaum.}

²² whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things which are present, or future things. All things are yours, ²³ and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

¹¹ Now all these things are examples which were befalling to those Jews, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have arrived.

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

⁴ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born out of a woman, born under the law,

²² And he subjected all things under his feet and gave him to be head above all things to the congregation of believers,

¹⁵ having done-away-with the hostility in his flesh, which is the Law of commandments in decrees; in order that he might create in himself the two into one new man, thus making peace;

¹⁵ from whom every family in the heavens and upon the earth is named,

⁹ Hence, God also highly exalted him, and granted to him the name which is above every name; ¹⁰ in order that every knee should bow in the name of Jesus, those from the heavenly and earthly and subterranean places,

¹⁶ because all things were created by him, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth, the visible and invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

²⁰ and through him to reconcile all things to himself, whether things upon the earth or things upon the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross, through him.

¹¹ where there is no Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, or free man, but Christ is all things and in all things.

² whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the ages.

¹⁰ being only fleshly ordinances, (upon the basis of foods, drinks and assorted ceremonial washings), laid upon us till a time of reformation.

⁴⁰ God having foreseen something better concerning us, in order that they should not be completed separate from us.

²² But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to tens of thousands of messengers, ²³ to the festal-gathering and to the congregation of the firstborn ones, who have been registered in the heavens and to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous who have been completed, ²⁴ and to Jesus the intermediary of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling which speaks better than that of Abel.

⁴ And I heard the number of those who have been sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand, having been sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel: ⁵ twelve thousand out of the tribe of Judah having been sealed; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Reuben; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Gad; ⁶ twelve thousand out of the tribe of Asher; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Naphtali; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Manasseh; ⁷ twelve thousand out of the tribe of Simeon; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Levi; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Issachar; ⁸ twelve thousand out of the tribe of Zebulun; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Joseph; twelve thousand out of the tribe of Benjamin having been sealed.
⁹ I saw and behold after these things, a large crowd, which no one was able to number, out of every nation and tribes and peoples and languages, standing in the sight of the throne and in the sight of the Lamb, having been dressed in white robes and palm trees in their hands; ¹⁰ and they are crying with a loud voice, saying, The salvation is in our God who is sitting upon the throne and in the Lamb.
¹¹ And all the messengers and the elders and the four living creatures stood in a circle of the throne, and they fell upon their faces in the sight of the throne and worshiped God, ¹² saying, Assuredly, the thanks and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength is to our God, forevermore. Amen.

⁴ And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who is sitting upon the throne, saying, Amen. Hallelujah.
⁵ And a voice came forth from the throne, saying, Praise our God, all his bondservants, and those who fear him, the little and the great.
⁶ And I heard as it was the voice of a large crowd and like the voice of many waters and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, Hallelujah, because the Lord our God, the Almighty reigns.

²⁰ But Jehovah has taken you* and brought you* forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as at this day.

¹³ With God is wisdom and might. He has counsel and understanding.

¹⁸ Jehovah knows the days of the perfect and their inheritance will be everlasting.

¹⁴ Counsel is mine and sound-wisdom. I am understanding; I have might.

¹⁹ who say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it. And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it!

²⁹ This also comes forth from Jehovah of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.

¹³ Who has known the mind of Jehovah, or being his counselor has taught him? ¹⁴ He took counsel with whom. And who instructed him and taught him in the path of justice. And taught him knowledge and showed to him the way of understanding?

¹⁸ For who has stood in the council of Jehovah, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has marked my word and heard it?

¹⁹ great in counsel and mighty in work, whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men, to give everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his practices,

¹³ even he will build the temple of Jehovah. And he will bear the glory and will sit and rule upon his throne. And he will be a priest upon his throne and the counsel of peace will be between them both.

²⁷ For I did not retreat back from proclaiming to you the whole plan of God.

³² And hereafter I consign you brethren to God, and to the word of his favor, which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all those who have been made holy.

¹⁸ to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light, and from the authority of the Adversary to God, in order for them to receive forgiveness of sins, and an inheritance among those who have been made holy in faith, the faith in me.

¹⁷ and if children, then heirs; indeed, heirs of God and joint heirs of Christ; if indeed we are suffering together with him, in order that we might also be glorified together with him.

³⁴ For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has become his counselor?

¹⁸ For if the inheritance is from the law, it is no more from the promise, but God has granted it to Abraham through the promise.

⁵ Having predetermined us to the sonship through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the delight of his will,

⁸ The grace which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,

¹² giving-thanks to the Father, who made us sufficient for the part of the inheritance of the holy-ones in the light.

²⁴ knowing that you will be receiving from the Lord the payment of the inheritance; for you are serving the Lord Christ.

⁷ in order that we might become heirs according to the hope of everlasting life, having been made righteous in that grace.

¹⁷ In which God, planning to show even-more to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable will of his plan, intermediated this with an oath;

⁴ into an incorruptible, undefiled and unfading inheritance having been guarded in the heavens for you;

⁹ not repaying evil in exchange-for evil or reviling in exchange-for reviling, but instead, speaking well of others; knowing that you were called for this, in order that you should inherit a blessing.

¹² Kiss the Son, lest he is angry and you* perish in the way, because his wrath will soon be kindled. All those who take refuge in him are fortunate.

³ Do not put your* trust in rulers, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. ⁴ His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth. His thoughts perish in that very day.
⁵ He who has the God of Jacob for his help is fortunate, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

¹⁰ And there will be a root of Jesse in that day and he who arises to rule over the Gentiles. In him will the Gentiles hope and his resting place will be glorious.

² Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust and will not be afraid, for Jehovah, even Jehovah, is my strength and song and he has become my salvation.

¹ Behold, a king will reign in righteousness and rulers will rule in justice. ² And a man will be as a hiding-place from the wind and a covert from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a weary land.

¹ Behold, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights. I have put my Spirit upon him, he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles. ² He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street. ³ A bruised reed he will not break and a dimly burning wick he will not quench, but he will bring forth justice in truth. ⁴ He will not fail nor be discouraged till he has set justice in the earth. And in his name Gentiles will hope.

²³ I have sworn by myself, the word has gone forth from my mouth in righteousness and will not return, that to me every knee will bow, every tongue will confess to God.

²⁵ In Jehovah all the seed of Israel will be justified and will glory.

⁵ Jehovah says thus: Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his arm and whose heart departs from Jehovah. ⁶ For he will be like the heath in the desert and will not see when good comes, but will inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.
⁷ Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah and whose trust Jehovah is.

¹⁸ ‘Behold, my young-servant whom I selected. My beloved in whom my soul is delighted. I will be placing my Spirit upon him and he will be proclaiming judgment to the Gentiles.’ ¹⁹ ‘He will not have selfish ambition, nor will he cry-out; nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets. ²⁰ He will not fracture a bruised reed and he will not quench a smoking wick, until he should cast out the judgment to victory. ²¹ And the Gentiles will hope in his name.’

¹ Do not let your heart be disturbed; you believe in God, believe also in me.

¹² And again, Isaiah says, ‘There will be the root of Jesse and he who raised up to rule over the Gentiles; upon him the Gentiles will hope.’ ¹³ Now the God of hope may fill you with all joy and peace in the believing, that you may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.

¹³ in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the good-news of your salvation, in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, ¹⁴ which is a down-payment of our inheritance, to the redemption of the ownership of God to the praise of his glory.

²¹ the glory is to him in the congregation in Christ Jesus to all generations forevermore. Amen.

¹³ But we ought to thank God always concerning you brethren, beloved by the Lord, that God himself selected you from the beginning to salvation in holiness of the Spirit and in faith of the truth;

¹² Because of which case, I also am suffering these things too, but I am not ashamed; for I know the one whom I have believed and I have confidence that he is able to guard my deposit consigned to him for that day.

¹⁸ Having willed it, he gave-birth to us with the word of truth, that we might be a certain first-fruit of his created things.

²¹ who believe through him in God. The God who raised him up from the dead and gave him glory; so-that your faith and hope might be in God.

⁴³ And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth, because I have hoped in your ordinances.

²⁸ And it will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh and your* sons and your* daughters will prophesy. Your* old men will dream dreams. Your* young men will see visions.

¹⁵ And he said to them, When you travel into all the world, preach the good-news to all creation. ¹⁶ He who believes and is immersed will be saved, but he who disbelieves will be condemned.

¹³ Therefore if you, being evil, know how to give good presents to your children, how much more will your Father from heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?

⁴⁹ And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you, but you stick-around in the city of Jerusalem, until you should be clothed with power from on high.

¹⁷ Because the law was given through Moses; the favor and the truth became through Jesus Christ.

²⁷ Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will be giving to you; for God, the Father, has sealed this one.

¹⁶ And I will be requesting of the Father and he will be giving you another Helper, in order that he may abide with you forever, ¹⁷ the Spirit of the truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it does not view him, nor knows him, but you know him, because he is abiding with you and will be in you.

²⁶ But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will be sending in my name, that one will be teaching you all things and will be reminding you of all things which I said to you.

²⁶ But whenever the Helper has come, whom I will be sending to you from the Father, who is the Spirit of the truth, who travels from the Father, that one will be testifying concerning me;

⁷ But I tell you the truth. It is advantageous for you that I should go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not be coming to you, but if I travel on, I will be sending him to you. ⁸ And when he has come, that one will be convicting the world concerning sin and concerning righteousness and concerning judgment. ⁹ Concerning sin, indeed, because they did not believe in me; ¹⁰ concerning righteousness, because I am going to my Father and you view me no more; ¹¹ and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. ¹² I still have many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them now. ¹³ But whenever that one, the Spirit of the truth, comes, he will be guiding you into all the truth; for he will not be speaking from himself, but as many things as he may hear, these he will be speaking and he will be reporting to you the things which are to come. ¹⁴ He will be glorifying me, because he will receive from me and will be proclaiming it to you. ¹⁵ All things, as many things as the Father has are mine, because of this, I said, He is receiving from me and will be proclaiming it to you.

⁴ And, being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to remain until the promise of the Father, Which, ( he said) You have heard from me;

¹⁶ But this is what has been spoken through the prophet Joel, ¹⁷ God says, ‘And it will be in the last days, I will pour out from My Spirit upon all flesh and your sons and your daughters will prophesy and your young-men will see visions and your elderly-men will dream dreams. ¹⁸ For-sure, I will pour out of my Spirit upon my male bondservants and upon my female bondservants in those days, and they will prophesy. ¹⁹ And I will be giving you wonders in the heaven above and signs upon the earth below; blood and fire and vapor of smoke. ²⁰ The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and illustrious day of the Lord comes. ²¹ And it will be, that everyone, whoever calls upon the name of the Lord, will be saved.’
²² Men, Israelites! Hear these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man from God, having been shown to you by miracles and wonders and signs which God did through him in your midst, just-as you yourselves also know;

³³ Therefore having been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured out this, which you are seeing and hearing now.

²⁶ Brethren, sons from the race of Abraham and those who fear God among you, the word of this salvation was sent forth to you.

¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the good-news of the Christ; for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes; both to the Jew first and to the Greek.

¹¹ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith of which he had in the uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, even through uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be counted to them;

¹⁷ But gratitude to God, that, though you were bondservants of sin, you obeyed from the heart the pattern of teaching to which you were given;

¹⁴ Therefore how will they call upon him in whom they have not believed? But how will they believe of whom they have not heard? But how will they hear without someone preaching? ¹⁵ But how will they preach, if they are not sent? Just-as it has been written, ‘How Beautiful are the feet of those who are proclaiming the good-news of peace and of those who are proclaiming the good-news of good things!’ ¹⁶ But not all obeyed the good-news; for Isaiah says, ‘Lord, who has believed our report?’ ¹⁷ Consequently, the faith comes from our report but our report comes through the declaration of God.

²² who also sealed us and gave us the down-payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

⁷ in the word of truth, in the power of God; through the weapons of righteousness from the right hand and from the left hand,

¹⁴ in order that the blessing of Abraham might happen to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus; in order that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through the faith.

¹¹ Hence remember, that previously you, (the Gentiles in the flesh), who are called uncircumcision by what is called circumcision, made by hands in the flesh; ¹² that you were separate from Christ at the time, having been alienated from the citizenship of Israel and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and were godless in the world.

²¹ if you actually heard him and were taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus;

³⁰ And do not make the Holy Spirit of God sorrowful, in whom you were sealed to the day of redemption.

⁴ having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have toward all the holy-ones, ⁵ because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard beforehand in the word of the truth of the good-news. ⁶ This good-news which is present for you; just-as it also is in all the world. And is bearing-fruit and growing, just-as it also does in you, from the day you heard and fully knew the grace of God in truth;

²¹ And you were previously alienated and were enemies in mind, in evil works, but yet he reconciled you\super\'b0 ²² in the body of his flesh through his death, to present you holy and unblemished and irreproachable in his sight; ²³ if you actually are remaining in the faith, having been founded and grounded and not being moved away from the hope of the good-news which you heard, which was preached in all creation which is under heaven; of which I, Paul, became a servant.

¹³ And we also are constantly giving-thanks to God because of this, because, when you accepted the word of God from our report, you accepted it not as the word of men, but just-as it truly is, the word of God, which is also working in you who believe.

¹⁵ Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed worker, cutting-straight the word of truth.

¹⁵ And you have known, that from a baby, the sacred Scriptures which are able to make you wise to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

¹¹ For the grace of God has appeared, which is salvation to all men,

³ how shall we flee, having neglected so-great a salvation, which having received at the beginning was spoken through the Lord, which was confirmed to us from those who heard it?

¹⁰ who previously were not a people, but now are the people of God; who had not been shown-mercy, but now have been shown-mercy.

² And I saw another messenger ascending from the rising of the sun, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four messengers to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

²⁴ And in all the land of your* possession you* will grant a redemption for the land. ²⁵ If your brother becomes poor and sells some of his possession, then his kinsman who is next to him will come and will redeem what his brother has sold. ²⁶ And if a man has no one to redeem it and he becomes rich and finds sufficient to redeem it, ²⁷ then let him reckon the years of the sale of it and restore the excess to the man to whom he sold it and he will return to his possession. ²⁸ But if he is not able to get it back for himself, then what he has sold will remain in the hand of him who has bought it until the year of jubilee. And in the jubilee it will go out and he will return to his possession.
²⁹ And if a man sells a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold. For a full year he will have the right of redemption. ³⁰ And if it is not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city will be made sure in perpetuity to him who bought it, throughout his genealogy. It will not go out in the jubilee. ³¹ But the houses of the villages which have no wall all around them will be reckoned with the fields of the country. They may be redeemed and they will go out in the jubilee.
³² Nevertheless the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, the Levites may have an everlasting redemption rights. ³³ And if a man purchases from the Levites, then the house that was sold and the city of his possession, will go out in the jubilee. For the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the sons of Israel. ³⁴ But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold, for it is their perpetual possession.

² Remember your congregation, which you bought them of long-ago, which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance and Mount Zion, at which you have dwelt.

⁵⁴ And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, to this mountain, which his right hand had gained.

⁷ Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle will come to you, saying, Buy my field that is in Anathoth. For the right of redemption is your to buy it.
⁸ So Hanamel my uncle's son came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of Jehovah and said to me, I beseech you, buy my field that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin. For the right of inheritance is your and the redemption is your. Buy it for yourself. Then I knew that this was the word of Jehovah.

²⁸ But when these things are beginning to happen, stand-erect and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.

⁵ Now God is the one who worked us for this same thing, who also gave the down-payment of the Spirit to us.

⁶ And because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

⁶ to the praise of the glory of his favor, in which he has favored us in the beloved, ⁷ in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses according to the riches of his grace.

³ As for the holy ones who are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.

³ We are giving-thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying concerning you, ⁴ having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have toward all the holy-ones,

³ constantly remembering your work of the faith, and labor of love, and of the endurance of the hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father,

⁹ Now concerning brotherly-love, you have no need for someone to write to you; for you yourselves are taught by God, that you should love one another;

³ Brethren, we always ought to thank God concerning you, just-as it is worthy, because your faith is growing substantially, and the love of each one of you all toward one another is increasing;

⁵ But the end of the command is love out of a clean heart and a good conscience and a non-pretended faith;

¹⁴ and the grace of our Lord overwhelmed me with the faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

⁵ hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the holy-ones;

¹⁰ For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and the labor of the love which you showed toward his name, having served the holy-ones and still serving them.

²² Having purified your souls in the obedience to the truth through the Spirit toward non-pretended brotherly-love, intensely love^*\'b0 one another from a clean heart;

¹⁷ But whoever has the world’s good life and should view his brother having need and then should lock his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

²¹ And we have this commandment from him, in order that he who loves God should also love his brother.

¹⁴ But have me in your remembrance when it will be well with you and I beseech you, show kindness to me and make mention of me to Pharaoh and bring me out of this house.

⁸ And the sons of Israel said to Samuel, Do not cease to cry to Jehovah our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.

²³ Moreover as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Jehovah in ceasing to pray for you*. But I will instruct you* in the good and the right way.

⁶ I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem. They will never keep silent day nor night. You* who are Jehovah's reminders, take no rest,

⁸ First indeed, I am giving-thanks to my God through Jesus Christ on behalf of all of you, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole world. ⁹ For God is my witness, to whom I am giving-divine service in my spirit in the good-news of his Son, as I constantly make a remembrance of you.

³ I am giving-thanks to my God upon every remembrance of you, ⁴ always in my every supplication on behalf of all of you, making the supplication with joy,

³ We are giving-thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying concerning you,

⁹ Because of this, we also do not cease praying and asking on your behalf from the day we heard it, in order that you may be filled with the full knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and intelligence,

² We are always giving-thanks to God concerning all of you, making a remembrance of you in our prayers;

¹⁷ Pray constantly.

³⁸ And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God? ³⁹ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Inasmuch as God has shown you all of this, there is none so discreet and wise as you.

¹¹ Yours, O Jehovah, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and on the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Jehovah and you are exalted as head above all.

⁷ Lift up your* heads, O you* gates and be lifted up, you* doors everlasting and the King of glory will come in.

¹⁰ Who is this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.

³ The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah upon many waters.

⁵ then you will understand the fear of Jehovah and find the knowledge of God.

² And the Spirit of Jehovah will rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah.

¹¹ Has a nation changed its gods, which yet are no gods? But my people have changed their glory for what does not profit.

²⁴ but let he who boasts boast in this, that he has understanding and knows me, that I am Jehovah who exercises loving kindness, justice and righteousness, in the earth. For in these things I delight, says Jehovah.

⁷ And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah. And they will be my people and I will be their God, for they will return to me with their whole heart.

²⁸ but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets. And he has made known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days.
Your dream and the visions of your head upon your bed, are these: ²⁹ As for you, O king, your thoughts came upon your bed, what should happen hereafter. And he who reveals secrets has made known to you what will happen.
³⁰ But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living man, but to the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king and that you may know the thoughts of your heart.

¹¹ There is a man in your kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. And in the days of your father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him. And the king Nebuchadnezzar your father, the king, I say, your father, made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans and soothsayers,

¹ In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar and the thing was true, even a great warfare. And he understood the thing and had understanding of the vision.

¹³ And do not bring us into temptation, but rescue us from the evil one, because yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.

²⁵ Jesus answered and said at that time, I profess you, O Father, Lord of heaven and the earth, that you hid these things from the wise and intelligent and revealed them to infants.

²⁷ All things have been given to me by my Father and no one fully knows the Son, except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father fully, except the Son and he to whomever the Son wills to reveal him. \ulnone\nosupersub

¹⁷ And Jesus answered and said to him, You are fortunate, Simon, Son of Jonah, because flesh and blood has not revealed it to you, but my Father, the one in the heavens.

¹² for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you ought to say.

¹⁵ For I will be giving you a mouth and wisdom, which all who lay in opposition to you will not be able to stand against, nor to speak against.

⁵⁴ Jesus answered, If I am glorifying myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me; of whom you say, that he is our God. ⁵⁵ And you have not known him, but I know him, and if I say, I do not know him, I will be similar to you, a liar, but I know him and I am keeping his word.

¹⁷ the Spirit of the truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it does not view him, nor knows him, but you know him, because he is abiding with you and will be in you.

³ And they will be doing these things to you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

³ But this is everlasting life, in order that they should know you, the only true God, and Jesus the Christ, whom you sent.

²⁵ O righteous Father, the world did not know you, but I knew you, and these knew that you sent me; ²⁶ and I made known to them your name and will be making it known; in order that the love in which you loved me may be in them and I am in them.

¹⁰ And they were not strong-enough to stand against the wisdom and the Spirit by which he was speaking.

² Now he said, Brethren and fathers, listen : the God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,

²⁸ And just-as they did not approve to have God in their full knowledge, God gave them up to an unapproved mind, to do those things which are not proper.

⁸ It is this mystery which none of the rulers of this age knew; for if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory;

¹⁰ But God revealed them to us through his Spirit; for the Spirit is searching all things, even the depths of God.

⁸ for the word of wisdom is given to one through the Spirit, and the word of knowledge to another according to the same Spirit;

⁶ But brethren, now if I come to you speaking in foreign languages, what will I profit you, if I do not speak to you either in revelation or in knowledge or in prophesying or in teaching?

¹ It is not advantageous for me to boast! For I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

³ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is gracious, who has blessed us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

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

¹⁸ having been rooted and having been founded in love, in order that you may have strength to grab, together with all the holy-ones, of what is the width and length and depth and height, ¹⁹ and to know the love of the Christ which surpasses knowledge, in order that you may be filled to all the fullness of God.

⁹ Because of this, we also do not cease praying and asking on your behalf from the day we heard it, in order that you may be filled with the full knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and intelligence, ¹⁰ for you to walk worthy of the Lord for pleasing him in everything, bearing-fruit in every good work and growing into the full knowledge of God;

² in order that their hearts might be encouraged, having been knitted together in love and in all the riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the full knowledge of the mystery of God and Father and of the Christ, ³ in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.

²⁵ in meekness educating those who are placing themselves in opposition; if maybe God might give them repentance to come to the full knowledge of the truth,

¹ Paul, a bondservant of God and apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s chosen and the full knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,

¹ My brethren, do not have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, in favoritism.

¹⁷ But the wisdom which is from above is indeed first pure, thereafter is peaceful, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and non-pretended. ¹⁸ And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who are making peace.

³ As his divine power has been bestowed to us as a gift, (all things pertaining to life and godliness), through the full knowledge of the one who called us through glory and virtue;

¹⁸ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Glory is to him, both now and toward the final day of this world. Amen.

³ And we know in this that we have known him; if we are keeping his commandments. ⁴ He who says, I have known him and is not keeping his commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in this one;

¹² saying, Assuredly, the thanks and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength is to our God, forevermore. Amen.

¹⁸ Open my eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.

¹⁰ Make the heart of this people fat and make their ears heavy and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn and be healed.

¹⁰ For Jehovah has poured out upon you* the spirit of deep sleep and has closed your* eyes. The prophets and your* heads, the seers, he has covered.

¹⁸ And in that day the deaf will hear the words of the book and the eyes of the blind will see out of obscurity and out of darkness.

³ And the eyes of those who see will not be dim and the ears of those who hear will listen.

⁷ to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon and those who sit in darkness out of the prison-house.

¹⁵ for the heart of this people has become-callous and they have selectively heard with the ears and they have closed their eyes; lest they should see with their eyes and should hear with their ears and should understand with their heart and should turn again and I will be healing them.’

⁴⁵ Then he opened their mind to understand the Scriptures.

¹⁴ And a certain woman, Lydia by name, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira was hearing us and worshiping God, whose heart the Lord opened to take-heed to the things being spoken from Paul.

⁴ and endurance, approved character, and an approved character, hope; ⁵ and hope does not shame one, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

²⁴ For we were saved in hope; but hope which is seen, is not hope; for why does anyone even hope for what he sees? ²⁵ But if we hope for what we do not see, then we are waiting for it through endurance.

⁴ in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the illumination of the good-news of the glory of the Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn for them.

⁶ Because it is God, who said, ‘Illumination shine’out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

⁵ For we are waiting for the hope of righteousness in a Spirit from faith.

⁷ in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses according to the riches of his grace.

¹² that you were separate from Christ at the time, having been alienated from the citizenship of Israel and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and were godless in the world.

¹ Therefore, I, the prisoner in the Lord, am encouraging you to walk worthily of the calling in which you were called,

⁴ There is one body and one Spirit, just-as you were also called in one hope of your calling;

⁸ For you were previously in darkness, but now you^\'b0 are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

¹⁴ I am pursuing according to the goal line toward the prize of the upward calling of God in Christ Jesus.

⁵ because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard beforehand in the word of the truth of the good-news.

²³ if you actually are remaining in the faith, having been founded and grounded and not being moved away from the hope of the good-news which you heard, which was preached in all creation which is under heaven; of which I, Paul, became a servant.

¹⁵ And let the peace of God arbitrate in your hearts, for which you were also called in one body, and become thankful.

¹² and testifying, that you should walk worthy of God, who is calling you into his own kingdom and glory.

⁸ But we, being of the day, should be sober; having clothed yourselves with the breastplate of faith and love, and a helmet-- the hope of salvation.

¹⁶ Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God and Father who loved us and gave us everlasting encouragement and good hope in his grace,

¹² Fight the good fight of the faith, grab the everlasting life, to which you were called and professed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

¹³ waiting for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ;

⁴ For it is impossible, those who were once enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and had become partakers of the Holy Spirit

³² But remind yourselves of the former days, when you were enlightened, in which you endured a large conflict of sufferings;

¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who called you to his everlasting glory in Christ Jesus, when you have suffered a small time, he himself may frame you up, will establish, will strengthen and will found you.

¹ Behold what sort of love the Father has given to us, in order that we might be called children of God. Because of this, the world does not know you, because it did not know him. ² Beloved, we are now the children of God and it was not yet manifested what we will be. But we know that, if he is manifested, we will be similar to him, because we will be seeing him just-as he is. ³ And everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, just-as that man is pure.

² Jehovah will send forth the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies. ³ Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of your power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning you have the dew of your youth.

¹ Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of Jehovah been revealed?

⁶ What has been born out of the flesh is flesh, and what has been born out of the Spirit is spirit.

⁷ But we have this treasure in clay vessels, in order that the excellence of the power may be from God and not from us.

⁷ of which I became a servant, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.

²⁰ Now to the one who is able to do, exceptionally beyond all things, what we are asking or are perceiving, according to the power which is working in us,

¹⁰ Furthermore, my brethren, be empowered in the Lord and in the dominion of his strength.

²⁹ for which I also labor, struggling according to his working, which works in power in me.

¹² having been buried together with him in the immersion, in which you were also raised up together with him through the faith from the working of God, who raised him up from the dead.

⁵ You know because our good-news did not happened to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much full assurance; just-as you know what manner of men we became among you, because of you.

⁹ Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices. My flesh also will dwell in hope.
¹⁰ Because you will not leave my soul to Sheol, nor will you allow your holy man to see corruption.
¹¹ You made known to me the path of life. You will fill me of joy with your countenance.

¹ Jehovah says to my Lord, Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.

⁴³ He says to them, Therefore how does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying, ⁴⁴ The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right, until I should place your enemies as the footstool of your feet? ⁴⁵ Therefore, if David calls him Lord, how is he his son?

⁶⁴ Jesus said to him, You have said so. However I am saying to you, From now on, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven.

¹⁸ And Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, All authority has been given to me in heaven and upon earth.

⁶² But Jesus said, I am, and you will be seeing the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power and coming with the clouds of heaven.

¹⁹ Therefore indeed, the Lord, after he had spoken to them, was received up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

¹⁸ No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down out of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it up again. I received this commandment from my Father.

³⁰ I and the Father are one.

¹ Jesus spoke these things, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son, in order that your Son may also glorify you; ² just-as you gave him authority over all flesh, in order that to all whom you have given him, he will be giving everlasting life to them. ³ But this is everlasting life, in order that they should know you, the only true God, and Jesus the Christ, whom you sent. ⁴ I glorified you upon the earth. I completed the work which you have given me, that I should be doing. ⁵ And now, Father, glorify me with yourself in the glory which I was holding with you before the world was.

²⁴ whom God raised up, having loosed the travails of death, insomuch as it was not possible for him to be held-fast by it. ²⁵ For David says in regard to him, ‘I am seeing the Lord always before my face, in my sight, because he is at my right hand, in order that I might not be shaken. ²⁶ Because of this, my heart was joyous and my tongue was glad. Now my flesh will also reside in hope; ²⁷ because you will not forsake my soul to Hades, neither will you give your Holy One to see decay. ²⁸ You made known to me the ways of life. You will fill me with joy with your countenance.’ ²⁹ Brethren, it is legal for me to speak publicly to you concerning the patriarch David, that he is both dead and was buried and his tomb is among us to this day. ³⁰ Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that from the fruit of his loins, to raise up the Christ according to the flesh to sit upon his throne. ³¹ Foreseeing this, he spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was his soul left to Hades, nor did his flesh see decay. ³² This Jesus, God raised up, of whom we are all witnesses. ³³ Therefore having been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured out this, which you are seeing and hearing now. ³⁴ For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, ³⁵ until I should place your enemies as the footstool of your feet.’ ³⁶ Therefore, let all the house of Israel know with certainty, that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.

¹⁰ Let it be known to you all here and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ from Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised up from the dead; in him, this one who is standing in your sight is healthy.

³¹ This Jesus is the Author and Savior who God exalted to his right hand, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.

⁵⁵ But possessing the full ness of the Holy Spirit, he stared into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, ⁵⁶ and said, Behold, I am viewing the heavens that have been opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.

⁴⁰ God raised this one up on the third day and gave him to become manifest,

⁸ Why is it judged as unbelievable with you, if God is raising the dead?

⁴ who has been determined as being the Son of God in power, according to the spirit of holiness, out of the resurrection of the dead), Jesus Christ our Lord.

⁵ For if we have become unified together with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be unified with him in the likeness of his resurrection. ⁶ Knowing this, that our old man was crucified together with him, in order that the body of sin might be done-away, that we are to be enslaved to sin no longer; ⁷ for he who has died has been made righteous away from sin. ⁸ But if we died together with Christ, we believe that we will also be living together with him; ⁹ knowing that Christ having been raised up from the dead dies no more; death has no more lordship over him. ¹⁰ For that death that he died to sin, he died to sin once for all, but that life that he lives, he is living to God. ¹¹ So you also, count yourselves to be indeed dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

³⁴ Who is the one who condemns? Christ is the one who died, but rather, who was also raised up from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also is petitioning on our behalf.

⁵ even when we were dead through our trespasses, he made us alive together with the Christ; you are saved in his grace. ⁶ And God raised us up together with him and seated us together with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus;

⁸ Hence he says, ‘When he ascended onto high, he captured captivity and gave presents to men.’ ⁹ Now this saying, He ascended, (what is it saying?) except that he also came down into the downward parts of the earth first? ¹⁰ He who came down is also the same as he who ascended up above all the heavens, in order that he might fill all things.

¹⁰ that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being transformed to his death;

¹ Therefore, if you were raised up together with the Christ, seek the things which are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

³ It is he who, being the brightness of his glory and the exact representation of his essence, and is carrying all things by his declaration of power. Having made a cleansing of our sins through himself, he sat down by the right hand of the Majesty in the high place;

⁹ But we see Jesus who has been made a bit of something inferior, less than the messengers, having been crowned with glory and honor, because of the suffering of the death he underwent, that in the grace from God, he should taste of death on behalf of everyone.

¹² But having offered one continual sacrifice on behalf of sins, he sat down at the right hand of God;

²⁰ Now the God of peace, who brought up the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, from the dead in the blood of an everlasting covenant,

¹⁷ And when I saw him, I fell like one dead at his feet. And he placed his right hand upon me, saying, Do not fear; I am the first and the last,

²⁷ And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the holy ones of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom and all dominions will serve and obey him.

³² And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, not in the age which is now, nor in the future one.

³¹ But whenever the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the holy messengers with him. Then he will be sitting upon the throne of his glory; ³² and all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will be separating them one from another, like the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; ³³ and he will indeed stand the sheep at his right, but the goats at the left. ³⁴ Then the King will be saying to those at his right, Come-here, those who have been blessed from my Father, inherit the kingdom which has been prepared for you from the conception of the world: ³⁵ for I was hungry and you gave me food to eat; I was thirsty and you gave me a drink; I was a stranger and you led me in; ³⁶ I was naked and you dressed me; I was sick and you visited me; I was in prison and you came to me.

¹⁸ And Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, All authority has been given to me in heaven and upon earth.
¹⁹ When you travel, make disciples of all the nations, immersing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

²⁵ Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you, The hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. ²⁶ For just-like the Father has life in himself, so he also gave to the Son, to have life in himself, ²⁷ and he also gave authority to him to make judgment, because he is a son of man. ²⁸ Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will be hearing his voice, ²⁹ and will travel out; those who have practiced good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

¹² And there is salvation in none other; for neither is there any other name, that has been given among men, in which it is essential for us to be saved.

³⁸ For I have confidence, that neither death, nor life, nor messengers, nor principalities, nor powers, nor present things, nor future things, ³⁹ nor height, nor depth, nor some other created thing, will be able to separate us away from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

⁹ Hence, God also highly exalted him, and granted to him the name which is above every name; ¹⁰ in order that every knee should bow in the name of Jesus, those from the heavenly and earthly and subterranean places, ¹¹ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

¹⁵ who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; ¹⁶ because all things were created by him, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth, the visible and invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

¹⁰ And you are fulfilled in him, who is the head of all principality and authority;

¹⁵ having stripped off the principalities and the authorities, he publicly made a show of them, triumphing over them in it.

⁴ having become so-much better than the messengers, inasmuch as he has inherited a more excellent name than they.

⁵ For he did not subject the future inhabited-earth to messengers, concerning what we are speaking.

¹⁴ Therefore having a great high-priest, Jesus the Son of God, who has gone through the heavens, let us hold-fast our confession.

²² who is at the right hand of God, having traveled into heaven; with messengers and authorities and powers having been made subject to him.

¹² Now his eyes are a flame of fire and upon his head are many diadems, and he has names written which no one knows except he himself. ¹³ And he has been dressed in a garment, having been dipped in blood and his name is called The Word of God.

¹⁰ And the devil who is misleading them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also, and they will be tormented day and night forevermore.
¹¹ And I saw a great white throne and the one who sits upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, the greatest and the least, standing in the sight of the throne, and books were opened and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life and the dead were judged out of the things which have been written in the books, according to their works. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them and they were judged each one according to their works. ¹⁴ And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, which is the lake of fire. ¹⁵ And if anyone was not found, having been written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

¹⁵ And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise your head and you will bruise his heel.

⁶ You make him to have dominion over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet. ⁷ All sheep and oxen, yes and the beasts of the field, ⁸ the birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

¹³ You will tread upon the lion and adder. The young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

¹⁸ But I also say to you, that you are ^{F} Peter and upon this, the rock, I will be building my congregation of believers, and the gates of Hades will not be prevailing against her.

²⁵ For it is essential for him to reign, till whenever, he should place all his enemies under his feet. ²⁶ The last enemy done-away-with is death. ²⁷ For he has made all things subject under his feet. But whenever he says, All things are made subject, it is evident that it is all things unless it is the one who has subjected all things to him.

²³ Because the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is also the head of the congregation of believers, he is the savior of the body.

⁸ who also indicated to us your love in the Spirit.

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the congregation of believers; who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, in order that he might become foremost in all things.

¹⁹ and not holding-fast to the head, from whom all the body is being supplied and knitted together through the joints and ligaments, which is growing with the growth of God.

¹⁵ but if I am slow, these things are in order that you may know how men ought to conduct themselves in the house of God, which is the congregation of the living God, the pillar and base of the truth.

⁸ You subjected all things underneath his feet.’For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing which is not subject to him. But we now do not yet see all things having been subjected to him.

¹⁶ And we all received out of his fullness and favor in exchange-for favor.

⁵ Hence, it is a necessity to be subject yourself to him, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience.

⁶ And there are diversities of workings, but it is the same God, who is working all things in all.

¹² For just-as the body is one and has many members and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body; so also is the Christ. ¹³ For also, we were all immersed into one body, in one Spirit, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondservants or free men, and all were made to drink into one Spirit. ¹⁴ For the body is not one member, but many. ¹⁵ If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not from the body; contrary to this, is it not from the body? ¹⁶ And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not from the body; contrary to this, is it not from the body? ¹⁷ If the whole body were an eye, where is the hearing? If the whole body were hearing, where is the sense of smell? ¹⁸ But now God has placed the members in the body, each one of them, just-as he willed. ¹⁹ Now if they were all one member, where is the body? ²⁰ But now they are indeed many members, but one body. ²¹ Now the eye is not able to say to the hand, I have no need of you; or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. ²² But much rather now, those members of the body that seem to be weaker are necessary; ²³ and those things of the body which we think to be more dishonored, we place even-more honor upon these, and our indecent parts have even-more decency; ²⁴ but our decent parts have no need. But God mixed the body together, having given even-more honor to the ones which are lacking; ²⁵ in order that no splits should be in the body, but in order that the members should have the same anxiety on behalf of one another. ²⁶ And if one member is suffering, all the members are suffering together with it. If one member is glorified, all the members are rejoicing together with it. ²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ and members individually.

²⁸ But whenever all things have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to the one who did subject all things to him, in order that God may be all in all.

¹⁶ and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility in himself.

¹⁹ and to know the love of the Christ which surpasses knowledge, in order that you may be filled to all the fullness of God.

¹⁰ He who came down is also the same as he who ascended up above all the heavens, in order that he might fill all things.

¹² for the equipping of the holy-ones, for the work of the service, for the building up of the body of the Christ,

²³ Because the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is also the head of the congregation of believers, he is the savior of the body. ²⁴ But just-like the congregation is subject to the Christ, so let the wives also be subject to their own husbands in all things.
²⁵ The husbands, love^*\'b0 your own wives, just-as the Christ also loved the congregation and gave himself up on her behalf; ²⁶ in order that he might make her holy, having cleansed her in the full-washing of the water in the word, ²⁷ in order that he might present her to himself, the glorious congregation, not having stain or wrinkle or any such things, but in order that she should be holy and unblemished. ²⁸ So the husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. ²⁹ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but is nourishing and cherishing it, just-as the Lord also does the congregation of believers; ³⁰ because we are members of his body, out of his flesh and out of his bones. ³¹ Because of this, a man will be leaving his father and mother and will be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. ³² This mystery is great, but I am speaking in regard to Christ and in regard to the congregation of believers.

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the congregation of believers; who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, in order that he might become foremost in all things. ¹⁹ Because it delighted God that all the fullness is to dwell in him;

²⁴ Now I am rejoicing in my sufferings on your behalf and I am filling up in my flesh, the things lacking of the afflictions of the Christ on behalf of his body, which is the congregation of believers;

⁹ because all the fullness of the Deity is dwelling in him bodily. ¹⁰ And you are fulfilled in him, who is the head of all principality and authority;
