Why, G686 though G1499 I wrote G1125 to you, I did it not for his cause G1752 that had done G91 the wrong, G91 nor G3761 for his cause G1752 that suffered wrong, G91 but that our care G4710 for you in the sight G1799 of God G2316 might appear G5319 to you.

For if G1487 I have boasted G2744 any G1536 thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; G2617 but as we spoke G2980 all G3956 things to you in truth, G225 even G2532 so G3779 our boasting, G2746 which G3588 I made before G1909 Titus, G5103 is found G1096 a truth. G225

Why G3767 show G1731 you to them, and before G1519 G4383 the churches, G1577 the proof G1732 of your G5216 love, G26 and of our boasting G2746 on G5228 your G5216 behalf. G5228

Then said H559 the LORD H3068 to Moses, H4872 Behold, H2005 I will rain H4305 bread H3899 from heaven H8064 for you; and the people H5971 shall go H3318 out and gather H3950 a certain H1697 rate H1697 every day, H3117 that I may prove H5254 them, whether they will walk H3212 in my law, H8451 or no. H3808

And you shall remember H2142 all H3605 the way H1870 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 led H3212 you these H2088 forty H705 years H8141 in the wilderness, H4057 to humble H6031 you, and to prove H5254 you, to know H3045 what H853 H834 was in your heart, H3824 whether you would keep H8104 his commandments, H4687 or no. H3808

Who fed H398 you in the wilderness H4057 with manna, H4478 which H834 your fathers H1 knew H3045 not, that he might humble H6031 you, and that he might prove H5254 you, to do you good H3190 at your latter H319 end;

You shall not listen H8085 to the words H1697 of that prophet, H5030 or H176 that dreamer H2492 of dreams: H2472 for the LORD H3068 your God H430 proves H5254 you, to know H3045 whether you love H157 the LORD H3068 your God H430 with all H3605 your heart H3824 and with all H3605 your soul. H5315

But you know G1097 the proof G1382 of him, that, as a son G5043 with the father, G3962 he has served G1398 with me in the gospel. G2098

And his inward G4698 affection G4698 is more G4056 abundant G4056 toward G1519 you, whilst he remembers G363 the obedience G5218 of you all, G3956 how G5613 with fear G5401 and trembling G5156 you received G1209 him.

And having G2192 in a readiness G2092 to revenge G1556 all G3956 disobedience, G3876 when G3752 your G5216 obedience G5218 is fulfilled. G4137

Why, G5620 my beloved, G27 as you have always G3842 obeyed, G5219 not as in my presence G3952 only, G3440 but now G3568 much G4183 more G3123 in my absence, G666 work G2716 out your G1438 own G1438 salvation G4991 with fear G5401 and trembling. G5156

And if G1487 any G5100 man obey G5219 not our word G3056 by this G3588 letter, G1992 note G4593 that man, and have G2192 no G3361 company G4874 with him, that he may be ashamed. G1788

Having confidence G3982 in your obedience G5218 I wrote G1125 to you, knowing G1492 that you will also G2532 do G4160 more G5228 than G5228 I say. G3004
