For though G1437 I should boast G2744 somewhat G5100 more G4055 of our authority, G1849 which G3739 the Lord G2962 has given G1325 us for edification, G3619 and not for your G5216 destruction, G2506 I should not be ashamed: G153

For his letters, G1992 say G5346 they, are weighty G926 and powerful; G2478 but his bodily G4983 presence G3952 is weak, G770 and his speech G3056 contemptible. G1848

To whom G3739 you forgive G5483 any G5100 thing, I forgive G5483 also: G2532 for if G1487 I forgave G5483 any G1536 thing, to whom G3739 I forgave G5483 it, for your G5209 sakes forgave I it in the person G4383 of Christ; G5547

For it is not you that speak, G2980 but the Spirit G4151 of your G5216 Father G3962 which G3588 speaks G2980 in you.

Truly G281 I say G3004 to you, Whatever G3745 G1437 you shall bind G1210 on G1909 earth G1093 shall be bound G1210 in heaven: G3772 and whatever G3745 G1437 you shall loose G3089 on G1909 earth G1093 shall be loosed G3089 in heaven. G3772

For where G3757 two G1417 or G2228 three G5140 are gathered G4863 together G4863 in my name, G3686 there G1563 am G1510 I in the middle G3319 of them.

For I will give G1325 you a mouth G4750 and wisdom, G4678 which G3739 all G3956 your G5213 adversaries G480 shall not be able G1410 to gainsay G471 nor G3761 resist. G436

In the name G3686 of our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 when you are gathered G4863 together, G4863 and my spirit, G4151 with the power G1411 of our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547

To deliver G3860 such G5108 an one to Satan G4567 for the destruction G3639 of the flesh, G4561 that the spirit G4151 may be saved G4982 in the day G2250 of the Lord G2962 Jesus. G2424

Sufficient G2425 to such G5108 a man is this G3778 punishment, G2009 which G3588 was inflicted of many. G4119

Do we begin G756 again G3825 to commend G4921 ourselves? G1438 or G2228 G3361 need G5535 we, as some G5100 others, letters G1992 of commendation G4956 to you, or G2228 letters of commendation G4956 from you?

For as much as you are manifestly G5319 declared G5319 to be the letter G1992 of Christ G5547 ministered G1247 by us, written G1449 not with ink, G3188 but with the Spirit G4151 of the living G2198 God; G2316 not in tables G4109 of stone, G3035 but in fleshy G4560 tables G4109 of the heart. G2588

Truly G3303 the signs G4592 of an apostle G652 were worked G2716 among G1722 you in all G3956 patience, G5281 in signs, G4592 and wonders, G5059 and mighty G1411 deeds. G1411

Am G1510 I not an apostle? G652 am G1510 I not free? G1658 have I not seen G3708 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 our Lord? G2962 are not you my work G2041 in the Lord? G2962

My G1699 answer G627 to them that do examine G350 me is this, G3778
