For to their power, G1411 I bear G3140 record, G3140 yes, and beyond G5228 their power G1411 they were willing G830 of themselves; G830

Where G5101 is then G3767 the blessedness G3108 you spoke of? for I bear G3140 you record, G3140 that, if G1487 it had been possible, G1415 you would have plucked G1846 out your G5216 own eyes, G3788 and have given G1325 them to me.

For I bear G3140 him record, G3140 that he has G2192 a great G4183 zeal G2205 for you, and them that are in Laodicea, G2993 and them in Hierapolis. G2404

And he said, H559 Come H3212 with me, and see H7200 my zeal H7068 for the LORD. H3068 So they made him ride H7392 in his chariot. H7393

They shall put G4160 you out of the synagogues: G656 yes, G235 the time G5610 comes, G2064 that whoever G3956 G3588 kills G615 you will think G1380 that he does G4374 God G2316 service. G2999

And when they heard G191 it, they glorified G1392 the Lord, G2962 and said G2036 to him, You see, G2334 brother, G80 how G4214 many G4214 thousands G3461 of Jews G2453 there are which G3588 believe; G4100 and they are all G3956 zealous G2207 of the law: G3551

Crying G2896 out, Men G435 of Israel, G2475 help: G997 This G3778 is the man, G444 that teaches G1321 all G3956 men every G3837 where G3837 against G2596 the people, G2992 and the law, G3551 and this G5126 place: G5117 and further G2089 brought G1521 Greeks G1672 also G2532 into G1519 the temple, G2411 and has polluted G2840 this G5127 holy G40 place. G5117

I am G1510 truly G3303 a man G435 which am G1510 a Jew, G2453 born G1080 in Tarsus, G5019 a city in Cilicia, G2791 yet brought G397 up in this G5026 city G4172 at G3844 the feet G4228 of Gamaliel, G1059 and taught G3811 according G2596 to the perfect G195 manner G195 of the law G3551 of the fathers, G3971 and was zealous G2207 toward God, G2316 as you all G3956 are this G4594 day. G4594

And they gave him audience G191 to this G5127 word, G3056 and then lifted G1869 up their voices, G5456 and said, G3004 Away G142 with such G5108 a fellow from the earth: G1093 for it is not fit G2520 that he should live. G2198

I truly G3303 G3767 thought G1380 with myself, G1683 that I ought G1163 to do G4238 many G4183 things contrary G1727 to the name G3686 of Jesus G2424 of Nazareth. G3478

Which G3739 thing I also G2532 did in Jerusalem: G2414 and many G4183 of the saints G40 did G4160 I shut G2623 up in prison, G5438 having received G2983 authority G1849 from the chief G749 priests; G749 and when they were put G337 to death, G337 I gave G2702 my voice G5586 against G2702 them.

And profited G4298 in the Jews' G2454 religion G2454 above G5228 many G4183 my equals G4915 in my G3450 own nation, G1085 being G5225 more G4056 exceedingly G4056 zealous G2207 of the traditions G3862 of my fathers. G3967

They zealously G2206 affect G2206 you, but not well; G2573 yes, G235 they would G2309 exclude G1576 you, that you might affect G2206 them.

But it is good G2570 to be zealously G2206 affected G2206 always G3842 in a good G2570 thing, and not only G3440 when G1722 G3588 I am present G3918 with you.

Concerning G2596 zeal, G2205 persecuting G1377 the church; G1577 touching G2596 the righteousness G1343 which G3588 is in the law, G3551 blameless. G273

For they being ignorant G50 of God's G2316 righteousness, G1343 and going G2212 about G2212 to establish G2476 their own G2398 righteousness, G1343 have G2192 not submitted G5293 themselves to the righteousness G1343 of God. G2316

But Israel, G2474 which followed G1377 after the law G3551 of righteousness, G1343 has not attained G5348 to the law G3551 of righteousness. G1343

Why? G1302 Because G3754 they sought G2212 it not by faith, G4102 but as it were by the works G2041 of the law. G3551 For they stumbled G4350 at that stumbling stone; G3037

Have all H3605 the workers H6466 of iniquity H205 no H3808 knowledge? H3045 who eat H398 up my people H5971 as they eat H398 bread, H3899 and call H7121 not on the LORD. H3068

Also, H1571 that the soul H5315 be without H3808 knowledge, H1847 it is not good; H2896 and he that hastens H213 with his feet H7272 sins. H2398

In that day H3117 the LORD H3068 with his sore H7186 and great H1419 and strong H2389 sword H2719 shall punish H6485 leviathan H3882 the piercing H1281 serpent, H5175 even leviathan H3882 that crooked H6129 serpent; H5175 and he shall slay H2026 the dragon H8577 that is in the sea. H3220

In whom G3739 the god G2316 of this G5127 world G165 has blinded G5186 the minds G3540 of them which believe G571 not, lest G1519 the light G5462 of the glorious G1391 gospel G2098 of Christ, G5547 who G3739 is the image G1504 of God, G2316 should shine G826 to them.

For God, G2316 who G3588 commanded G2036 the light G5457 to shine G2989 out of darkness, G4655 has shined G2989 in our hearts, G2588 to give the light G5462 of the knowledge G1108 of the glory G1391 of God G2316 in the face G4383 of Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547

And this G5124 I pray, G4336 that your G5216 love G26 may abound G4052 yet G2089 more G3123 and more G3123 in knowledge G1922 and in all G3956 judgment; G144
