And we have sent G4842 with him the brother, G80 whose G3739 praise G1868 is in the gospel G2098 throughout G1223 all G3956 the churches; G1577

And not that only, G3440 but who was also G2532 chosen G5500 of the churches G1577 to travel G4898 with us with this G5124 grace, G5485 which G3588 is administered G1247 by us to the glory G1391 of the same G3778 Lord, G2962 and declaration of your G5216 ready G4288 mind: G4288

And Jacob H3290 said, H559 No, H408 I pray H4994 you, if H518 now H4994 I have found H4672 grace H2580 in your sight, H5869 then receive H3947 my present H4503 at my hand: H3027 for therefore H5921 H3651 I have seen H7200 your face, H6440 as though I had seen H7200 the face H6440 of God, H430 and you were pleased H7521 with me.

Take, H3947 I pray H4994 you, my blessing H1293 that is brought H935 to you; because H3588 God H430 has dealt graciously H2603 with me, and because H3588 I have H3426 enough. H3605 And he urged H6484 him, and he took H3947 it.

And he returned H7725 to the man H376 of God, H430 he and all H3605 his company, H4264 and came, H935 and stood H5975 before H6440 him: and he said, H559 Behold, H2009 now H4994 I know H3045 that there is no H369 God H430 in all H3605 the earth, H776 but in Israel: H3478 now H6258 therefore, I pray H4994 you, take H3947 a blessing H1293 of your servant. H5650

But he said, H559 As the LORD H3068 lives, H2416 before H6440 whom H834 I stand, H5975 I will receive H3947 none. And he urged H6484 him to take H3947 it; but he refused. H3985

And when G5613 she was baptized, G907 and her household, G3624 she sought G3870 us, saying, G3004 If G1487 you have judged G2919 me to be faithful G4103 to the Lord, G2962 come G1525 into G1519 my house, G3624 and abide G3306 there. And she constrained G3849 us.

And when G3752 I come, G3854 whomsoever G3739 G1437 you shall approve G1381 by your letters, G1992 them will I send G3992 to bring G667 your G5216 liberality G5485 to Jerusalem. G2419

And if G1437 it be meet G514 that I go G4198 also, G2504 they shall go G4198 with me.

For as touching G4012 the ministering G1248 to the saints, G40 it is superfluous G4053 for me to write G1125 to you:

For the administration G1248 of this G5026 service G3009 not only G3440 supplies G4322 the want G5303 of the saints, G40 but is abundant G4052 also G2532 by many G4183 thanksgivings G2169 to God; G2316

And by their prayer G1162 for you, which long G1971 after G1971 you for the exceeding G5235 grace G5485 of God G2316 in you.

And whoever G3739 G1437 shall give G4222 to drink G4222 to one G1520 of these G5130 little G3398 ones a cup G4221 of cold G5593 water only G3440 in the name G3686 of a disciple, G3101 truly G281 I say G3004 to you, he shall in no G3364 wise lose G622 his reward. G3408

For whoever G3748 G302 shall do G4160 the will G2307 of my Father G3962 which G3588 is in heaven, G3772 the same G846 is my brother, G80 and sister, G79 and mother. G3384

And the King G935 shall answer G611 and say G2046 to them, Truly G281 I say G3004 to you, Inasmuch G1909 G3745 as you have done G4160 it to one G1520 of the least G1646 of these G5130 my brothers, G80 you have done G4160 it to me.

Then G5119 shall they also G2532 answer G611 him, saying, G3004 Lord, G2962 when G4218 saw G1492 we you an hungered, G3983 or G2228 thirsty, G1372 or G2228 a stranger, G3581 or G2228 naked, G1131 or G2228 sick, G772 or G2228 in prison, G5438 and did not minister G1247 to you?

Then G5119 shall he answer G611 them, saying, G3004 Truly G281 I say G3004 to you, Inasmuch G1909 G3745 as you did G4160 it not to one G1520 of the least G1646 of these, G5130 you did G4160 it not to me.

For you have G2192 the poor G4434 with you always, G3842 and whenever G3752 you will G2309 you may G1410 do G4160 them good: G2095 but me you have G2192 not always. G3842

When Jesus G2424 therefore G3767 saw G1492 his mother, G3384 and the disciple G3101 standing G3936 by, whom G3739 he loved, G25 he said G3004 to his mother, G3384 Woman, G1135 behold G2400 your son! G5207

Then G1534 said G3004 he to the disciple, G3101 Behold G2400 your mother! G3384 And from that hour G5610 that disciple G3101 took G2983 her to his own G2398 home. G3624

And in those G5025 days, G2250 when the number of the disciples G3101 was multiplied, G4129 there arose G1096 a murmuring G1112 of the Grecians G1675 against G4314 the Hebrews, G1445 because G3754 their widows G5503 were neglected G3865 in the daily G2522 ministration. G1248

Why, G3767 brothers, G80 look G1980 you out among G1537 you seven G2033 men G435 of honest report, G3140 full G4134 of the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 and wisdom, G4678 whom G3739 we may appoint G2525 over G1909 this G5026 business. G5532

And the saying G3056 pleased G700 the whole G3956 multitude: G4128 and they chose G1586 Stephen, G4736 a man G435 full G4134 of faith G4102 and of the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 and Philip, G5376 and Prochorus, G4402 and Nicanor, G3527 and Timon, G5096 and Parmenas, G3937 and Nicolas G3532 a proselyte G4339 of Antioch: G491

And the word G3056 of God G2316 increased; G837 and the number G706 of the disciples G3101 multiplied G4129 in Jerusalem G2419 greatly; G4970 and a great G4183 company G3793 of the priests G2409 were obedient G5219 to the faith. G4102

Then G1161 Peter G4074 arose G450 and went G4905 with them. When he was come, G3854 they brought G321 him into G1519 the upper G5253 chamber: G5253 and all G3956 the widows G5503 stood G3936 by him weeping, G2799 and showing G1925 the coats G5509 and garments G2440 which G3745 Dorcas G1393 made, G4160 while she was with them.

And he gave G1325 her his hand, G5495 and lifted G450 her up, and when he had called G5455 the saints G40 and widows, G5503 presented G3936 her alive. G2198

Then G1161 the disciples, G3101 every G1538 man G1538 according G2531 to his ability, G2141 determined G3724 to send G3992 relief G1248 to the brothers G80 which dwelled G2730 in Judaea: G2449

Now G1161 after G1223 many G4119 years G2094 I came G3854 to bring G4160 alms G1654 to my nation, G1484 and offerings. G4376

But now G3570 I go G4198 to Jerusalem G2419 to minister G1247 to the saints. G40

For it has pleased G2106 them of Macedonia G3109 and Achaia G882 to make G4160 a certain G5100 contribution G2842 for the poor G4434 saints G40 which G3588 are at G1722 Jerusalem. G2419

Now G1161 concerning G4012 the collection G3048 for the saints, G40 as I have given order G1299 to the churches G1577 of Galatia, G1053 even G2532 so G3779 do G4160 you.

And when G3752 I come, G3854 whomsoever G3739 G1437 you shall approve G1381 by your letters, G1992 them will I send G3992 to bring G667 your G5216 liberality G5485 to Jerusalem. G2419

And if G1437 it be meet G514 that I go G4198 also, G2504 they shall go G4198 with me.

I beseech G3870 you, brothers, G80 (you know G1492 the house G3614 of Stephanas, G4734 that it is the first fruits G536 of Achaia, G882 and that they have addicted G5021 themselves G1438 to the ministry G1248 of the saints, G40 )

Only G3440 they would that we should remember G3421 the poor; G4434 the same G846 G5124 which G3739 I also G2532 was forward G4704 to do. G4160

As we have G2192 therefore G685 G3767 opportunity, G2540 let us do G2038 good G18 to all G3956 men, especially G3122 to them who are of the household G3609 of faith. G4102

Well G3140 reported G3140 of for good G2570 works; G2041 if G1487 she have G2192 brought G5044 up children, G5044 if G1487 she have G2192 lodged G3580 strangers, G3580 if G1487 she have G2192 washed G3538 the saints' G40 feet, G4228 if G1487 she have G2192 relieved G1884 the afflicted, G2346 if G1487 she have G2192 diligently followed G1872 every G3956 good G18 work. G2041

Hearing G191 of your love G26 and faith, G4102 which G3739 you have G2192 toward G4314 the Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 and toward G1519 all G3956 saints; G40

That the communication G2842 of your faith G4102 may become G1096 effectual G1756 by the acknowledging G1922 of every G3956 good G18 thing which G3588 is in you in Christ G5547 Jesus. G2424

For God G2316 is not unrighteous G94 to forget G1950 your G5216 work G2041 and labor G2873 of love, G26 which G3739 you have G2192 showed G1731 toward G1519 his name, G3686 in that you have G2192 ministered G1247 to the saints, G40 and do minister. G1247

Hereby G1722 G5129 perceive G1097 we the love G26 of God, because G3754 he laid G5087 down his life G5590 for us: and we ought G3784 to lay G5087 down our lives G5590 for the brothers. G80

My little G5040 children, G5040 let us not love G25 in word, G3056 neither G3366 in tongue; G1100 but in deed G2041 and in truth. G225
