For we are not as many, G4183 which corrupt G2585 the word G3056 of God: G2316 but as of sincerity, G1505 but as of God, G2316 in the sight G2714 of God G2316 speak G2980 we in Christ. G5547

For behold G2400 this G5124 selfsame G846 thing, that you sorrowed G3076 after G2596 a godly G2596 G2316 sort, what G4214 carefulness G4710 it worked G2716 in you, yes, G235 what clearing G627 of yourselves, yes, G235 what indignation, G24 yes, G235 what fear, G5401 yes, G235 what vehement G1972 desire, G1972 yes, G235 what zeal, G2205 yes, G235 what revenge! G1557 In all G3956 things you have approved G4921 yourselves G1438 to be clear G53 in this G3588 matter. G4229

You men G435 of Israel, G2475 hear G191 these G5128 words; G3056 Jesus G2424 of Nazareth, G3478 a man G435 approved G584 of God G2316 among G1519 you by miracles G1411 and wonders G5059 and signs, G4592 which G3739 God G2316 did G4160 by him in the middle G3319 of you, as you yourselves G846 also G2532 know: G1492

For he that in these G5125 things serves G1398 Christ G5547 is acceptable G2101 to God, G2316 and approved G1384 of men. G444

Salute G782 Apelles G559 approved G1384 in Christ. G5547 Salute G782 them which are of Aristobulus' G711 household.

If G1487 we have G2192 sown G4687 to you spiritual G4152 things, is it a great G3173 thing if G1487 we shall reap G2325 your G5216 carnal G4559 things?

For our exhortation G3874 was not of deceit, G4106 nor G3761 of uncleanness, G167 nor G3777 in guile: G1388

For neither G3777 at G4218 any G4218 time G4218 used G1096 G1722 we flattering G2850 words, G3056 as you know, G1492 nor G3777 a cloak G4392 of covetousness; G4124 God G2316 is witness: G3144

But we were gentle G2261 among G1722 G3319 you, even as a nurse G5162 cherishes G2282 her children: G5043

For you remember, G3421 brothers, G80 our labor G2873 and travail: G3449 for laboring G2873 night G3571 and day, G2250 because G4314 we would not be chargeable G1912 to any G5100 of you, we preached G2784 to you the gospel G2098 of God. G2316

As you know G1492 how G5613 we exhorted and comforted G3888 and charged G3143 every G1538 one G1520 of you, as a father G3962 does his children, G5043

Notwithstanding she shall be saved G4982 in childbearing, G5042 if G1437 they continue G3306 in faith G4102 and charity G26 and holiness G38 with sobriety. G4997

But have renounced G550 the hidden G2927 things of dishonesty, G152 not walking G4043 in craftiness, G3834 nor G3366 handling G1389 the word G3056 of God G2316 deceitfully; G1389 but by manifestation G5321 of the truth G225 commending G4921 ourselves G1438 to every G3956 man's G444 conscience G4893 in the sight G1799 of God. G2316

But God G2316 commends G4921 his love G26 toward G1519 us, in that, while we were yet G2089 sinners, G268 Christ G5547 died G599 for us.

Who G3739 also G2532 has made G2427 us able G2427 ministers G1249 of the new G2537 testament; G1242 not of the letter, G1121 but of the spirit: G4151 for the letter G1121 kills, G615 but the spirit G4151 gives life. G2227

Are they ministers G1249 of Christ? G5547 (I speak G2980 as a fool) G3912 I am more; G5228 in labors G2873 more G4056 abundant, G4056 in stripes G4127 above G5234 measure, G5234 in prisons G5438 more G4056 frequent, G4056 in deaths G2288 oft. G4178

But you shall be named H7121 the Priests H3548 of the LORD: H3068 men shall call H7121 you the Ministers H8334 of our God: H430 you shall eat H398 the riches H2428 of the Gentiles, H1471 and in their glory H3519 shall you boast H3235 yourselves.

The meat offering H4503 and the drink H5262 offering is cut H3772 off from the house H1004 of the LORD; H3068 the priests, H3548 the LORD's H3068 ministers, H8334 mourn. H56

Let the priests, H3548 the ministers H8334 of the LORD, H3068 weep H1058 between H996 the porch H197 and the altar, H4196 and let them say, H559 Spare H2347 your people, H5971 O LORD, H3068 and give H5414 not your heritage H5159 to reproach, H2781 that the heathen H1471 should rule H4910 over them: why H4100 should they say H559 among the people, H5971 Where H346 is their God? H430

Who G5101 then G3767 is Paul, and who G5101 is Apollos, G625 but ministers G1249 by whom G3739 you believed, G4100 even G2532 as the Lord G2962 gave G1325 to every G1538 man?

Let a man G444 so G3779 account G3049 of us, as of the ministers G5257 of Christ, G5547 and stewards G3623 of the mysteries G3466 of God. G2316

And sent G3992 Timotheus, G5095 our brother, G80 and minister G1249 of God, G2316 and our fellow laborer G4904 in the gospel G2098 of Christ, G5547 to establish G4741 you, and to comfort G3870 you concerning G4012 your G5216 faith: G4102

If you put G5294 the brothers G80 in remembrance G5294 of these G5023 things, you shall be a good G2570 minister G1249 of Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 nourished G1789 up in the words G3056 of faith G4102 and of good G2570 doctrine, G1319 whereunto G3739 you have attained. G3877

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

In your G5216 patience G5281 possess G2932 you your G5216 souls. G5590

And not only G3440 so, but we glory G2744 in tribulations G2347 also: G2532 knowing G1492 that tribulation G2347 works G2716 patience; G5281

And patience, G5281 experience; G1382 and experience, G1382 hope: G1680

Strengthened G1412 with all G3956 might, G1411 according G2596 to his glorious G1391 power, G2904 to all G3956 patience G5281 and long-suffering G3115 with joyfulness; G5479

Now G1161 we exhort G3870 you, brothers, G80 warn G3560 them that are unruly, G813 comfort G3888 the feebleminded, G3642 support G472 the weak, G772 be patient G3114 toward G4314 all G3956 men.

But you, O man G444 of God, G2316 flee G5343 these G5023 things; and follow G1377 after righteousness, G1343 godliness, G2150 faith, G4102 love, G26 patience, G5281 meekness. G4236

But you have fully G3877 known G3877 my doctrine, G1319 manner G72 of life, G72 purpose, G4286 faith, G4102 long-suffering, G3115 charity, G26 patience, G5281

Why G5105 seeing we also G2532 are compassed G4029 about G4029 with so G5118 great G5118 a cloud G3509 of witnesses, G3144 let us lay G659 aside G659 every G3956 weight, G3591 and the sin G266 which does so easily beset G2139 us, and let us run G5143 with patience G5281 the race G73 that is set G4295 before G4295 us,

Be patient G3114 therefore, G3767 brothers, G80 to the coming G3952 of the Lord. G2962 Behold, G2400 the farmer G1092 waits G1551 for the precious G5093 fruit G2590 of the earth, G1093 and has long G3114 patience G3114 for it, until G2193 he receive G2983 the early G4406 and latter G3797 rain. G5205

Grudge G4727 not one G240 against G2596 another, G240 brothers, G80 lest G2443 G3361 you be condemned: G2632 behold, G2400 the judge G2923 stands G2476 before G4253 the door. G2374

I John, G2491 who G3588 also G2532 am your G5216 brother, G80 and companion G4791 in tribulation, G2347 and in the kingdom G932 and patience G5281 of Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 was in the isle G3520 that is called G2564 Patmos, G3963 for the word G3056 of God, G2316 and for the testimony G3141 of Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547

Because G3754 you have kept G5083 the word G3056 of my patience, G5281 I also G2504 will keep G5083 you from the hour G5610 of temptation, G3986 which G3588 shall come G2064 on all G3650 the world, G3625 to try G3985 them that dwell G2730 on the earth. G1093

For our light G1645 affliction, G2347 which G3588 is but for a moment, G3901 works G2716 for us a far G1519 G5236 more G1519 G5236 exceeding G1519 G5236 and eternal G166 weight G922 of glory; G1391

Save G4133 that the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 witnesses G1263 in every G2596 city, G4172 saying G3004 that bonds G1199 and afflictions G2347 abide G3306 me.

But none G3762 of these things G3056 move G3056 G4160 me, neither G3761 count G2192 I my life G5590 dear G5093 to myself, G1683 so G5613 that I might finish G5048 my course G1408 with joy, G5479 and the ministry, G1248 which G3739 I have G2192 received G2983 of the Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 to testify G1263 the gospel G2098 of the grace G5485 of God. G2316

Who now G3568 rejoice G5463 in my sufferings G3804 for you, and fill G466 up that which is behind G5303 of the afflictions G2347 of Christ G5547 in my flesh G4561 for his body's G4983 sake, which G3739 is the church: G1577

That no G3367 man G3367 should be moved G4525 by these G5025 afflictions: G2347 for yourselves G846 know G1492 that we are appointed G2749 thereunto. G1519 G5124

Be not you therefore G3767 ashamed G1870 of the testimony G3142 of our Lord, G2962 nor G3366 of me his prisoner: G1198 but be you partaker G4777 of the afflictions G4777 of the gospel G2098 according G2596 to the power G1411 of God; G2316

Persecutions, G1375 afflictions, G3804 which G3634 came G1096 to me at G1722 Antioch, G490 at G1722 Iconium, G2430 at G1722 Lystra; G3082 what G3634 persecutions G1375 I endured: G5297 but out of them all G3956 the Lord G2962 delivered G4506 me.

Yes, G1161 and all G3956 that will G2309 live G2198 godly G2153 in Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 shall suffer G1377 persecution. G1377

But watch G3525 you in all G3956 things, endure G2553 afflictions, G2553 do G4160 the work G2041 of an evangelist, G2099 make G4135 full G4135 proof G4135 of your ministry. G1248

And when I was present G3918 with you, and wanted, G5302 I was chargeable G2655 to no G3762 man: G3762 for that which was lacking G5303 to me the brothers G80 which came G2064 from Macedonia G3109 supplied: G4322 and in all G3956 things I have kept G5083 myself G1683 from being burdensome G4 to you, and so will I keep G5083 myself. G1683

In weariness G2873 and painfulness, G3449 in watchings G70 often, G3740 in hunger G3042 and thirst, G1373 in fastings G3521 often, G3740 in cold G5592 and nakedness. G1132

Therefore G1352 I take pleasure G2106 in infirmities, G769 in reproaches, G5196 in necessities, G318 in persecutions, G1375 in distresses G4730 for Christ's G5547 sake: for when G3752 I am G1510 weak, G770 then G5119 am G1510 I strong. G1415

Yes, G1161 you yourselves G846 know, G1097 that these G3778 hands G5495 have G2192 ministered G5256 to my necessities, G5532 and to them that were with me.

Even to this G3588 present G737 hour G5610 we both G2532 hunger, G3983 and thirst, G1372 and are naked, G1130 and are buffeted, G2852 and have no G790 certain G790 dwelling place; G790

And labor, G2872 working G2038 with our own G2398 hands: G5495 being reviled, G3058 we bless; G2127 being persecuted, G1377 we suffer G430 it:

Not that I speak G3004 in respect G2596 of want: G5304 for I have learned, G3129 in whatever G3588 G3739 state I am, G1510 therewith to be content. G842

I know G1492 both G2532 how to be abased, G5013 and I know G1492 how to abound: G4052 every G3956 where G1722 G3956 and in all G3956 things I am instructed G3453 both G2532 to be full G5526 and to be hungry, G3983 both G2532 to abound G4052 and to suffer G5302 need.

We are troubled G2346 on G1722 every G1722 G3956 side, yet G235 not distressed; G4729 we are perplexed, G639 but not in despair; G1820

Who G5101 shall separate G5562 us from the love G26 of Christ? G5547 shall tribulation, G2347 or G2228 distress, G4730 or G2228 persecution, G1375 or G2228 famine, G3042 or G2228 nakedness, G1132 or G2228 peril, G2794 or G2228 sword? G3162

As it is written, G1125 For your sake G1752 we are killed G2289 all G3650 the day G2250 long; we are accounted G3049 as sheep G4263 for the slaughter. G4967

Therefore, G1223 G5125 brothers, G80 we were comforted G3870 over G1909 you in all G3956 our affliction G2347 and distress G318 by your G5216 faith: G4102
