For the perfecting G2677 of the saints, G40 for the work G2041 of the ministry, G1248 for the edifying G3619 of the body G4983 of Christ: G5547

I am G1510 the vine, G288 you are the branches: G2814 He that stays G3306 in me, and I in him, the same G3778 brings G5342 forth much G4183 fruit: G2590 for without G5565 me you can G1410 do G4160 nothing. G3762

Have you not poured H5413 me out as milk, H2461 and curdled H7087 me like cheese? H1385

You have clothed H3847 me with skin H5785 and flesh, H1320 and have fenced H7753 me with bones H6106 and sinews. H1517

My substance H6108 was not hid H3582 from you, when H834 I was made H6213 in secret, H5643 and curiously H7551 worked H7551 in the lowest H8482 parts of the earth. H776

Your eyes H5869 did see H7200 my substance, H1564 yet being imperfect; and in your book H5612 all H3605 my members were written, H3789 which in continuance H3117 were fashioned, H3335 when as yet there was none H3808 H259 of them.

For as the body G4983 is one, G1520 and has G2192 many G4183 members, G3196 and all G3956 the members G3196 of that one G1520 body, G4983 being G5607 many, G4183 are one G1520 body: G4983 so G3779 also G2532 is Christ. G5547

For the body G4983 is not one G1520 member, G3196 but many. G4183

And if G1437 the ear G3775 shall say, G2036 Because G3754 I am G1510 not the eye, G3788 I am G1510 not of the body; G4983 is it therefore G3756 not of the body? G4983

But now G3570 has God G2316 set G5087 the members G3196 every G1538 one G1520 of them in the body, G4983 as it has pleased G2309 him.

But now G3568 are they many G4183 members, G3196 yet G1161 but one G1520 body. G4983

No, G235 much G4183 more G3123 those G3588 members G3196 of the body, G4983 which seem G1380 to be more feeble, G772 are necessary: G316

For our comely G2158 parts have G2192 no G3756 need: G5532 but God G2316 has tempered G4786 the body G4983 together, G4786 having given G1325 more G4055 abundant G4055 honor G5092 to that part which lacked. G5302

And whether G1535 one G1520 member G3196 suffer, G3958 all G3956 the members G3196 suffer G4841 with it; or G1535 one G1520 member G3196 be honored, G1392 all G3956 the members G3196 rejoice G4796 with it.

And God G2316 has set G5087 some G3588 G3303 in the church, G1577 first G4412 apostles, G652 secondarily G1208 prophets, G4396 thirdly G5154 teachers, G1320 after G1899 that miracles, G1411 then G1534 gifts G5486 of healings, G2386 helps, G484 governments, G2941 diversities G1085 of tongues. G1100

And not holding G2902 the Head, G2776 from which G3739 all G3956 the body G4983 by joints G860 and bands G4886 having nourishment G2023 ministered, G2023 and knit G4822 together, G4822 increases G837 with the increase G838 of God. G2316

Whereof G3739 I was made G1096 a minister, G1249 according G2596 to the gift G1431 of the grace G5485 of God G2316 given G1325 to me by the effectual G1753 working G1753 of his power. G1411

For this G5124 cause G1223 also G2532 thank G2168 we God G2316 without G89 ceasing, G89 because, G3754 when you received G3880 the word G3056 of God G2316 which you heard G189 of us, you received G1209 it not as the word G3056 of men, G444 but as it is in truth, G230 the word G3056 of God, G2316 which G3739 effectually G1754 works G1754 also G2532 in you that believe. G4100

But speaking G226 the truth G226 in love, G26 may grow G837 up into G1519 him in all G3956 things, which G3739 is the head, G2776 even Christ: G5547

According G2531 as he has chosen G1586 us in him before G4253 the foundation G2602 of the world, G2889 that we should be holy G40 and without G299 blame G299 before G2714 him in love: G26

That Christ G5547 may dwell G2730 in your G5216 hearts G2588 by faith; G4102 that you, being rooted G4492 and grounded G2311 in love, G26

Now G1161 as touching G4012 things offered G1494 to idols, G1494 we know G1492 that we all G3956 have G2192 knowledge. G1108 Knowledge G1108 puffs G5448 up, but charity G26 edifies. G3618

Charity G26 suffers G3114 long, G3114 and is kind; G5541 charity G26 envies G2206 not; charity G26 braggs G4068 not itself, is not puffed G5448 up,

Rejoices G5463 not in iniquity, G93 but rejoices G4796 in the truth; G225

Charity G26 never G3763 fails: G1601 but whether G1535 there be prophecies, G4394 they shall fail; G2673 whether G1535 there be tongues, G1100 they shall cease; G3973 whether G1535 there be knowledge, G1108 it shall vanish G2673 away. G2673

Follow G1377 after charity, G26 and desire G2206 spiritual G4152 gifts, but rather G3123 that you may prophesy. G4395

For in Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 neither G3777 circumcision G4061 avails G2480 any G5100 thing, nor G3777 uncircumcision; G203 but faith G4102 which works G1754 by love. G26

For, brothers, G80 you have been called G2564 to liberty; G1657 only G3440 use not liberty G1657 for an occasion G874 to the flesh, G4561 but by love G26 serve G1398 one G240 another. G240

For all G3956 the law G3551 is fulfilled G4137 in one G1520 word, G4487 even in this; G3588 You shall love G25 your neighbor G4139 as yourself. G1438

But the fruit G2590 of the Spirit G4151 is love, G26 joy, G5479 peace, G1515 long-suffering, G3115 gentleness, G5544 goodness, G19 faith, G4102

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

That their hearts G2588 might be comforted, G3870 being knit G4822 together G4822 in love, G26 and to all G3956 riches G4149 of the full G4136 assurance G4136 of understanding, G4907 to the acknowledgment G1922 of the mystery G3466 of God, G2316 and of the Father, G3962 and of Christ; G5547

Remembering G3421 without G89 ceasing G89 your G5209 work G2041 of faith, G4102 and labor G2873 of love, G25 and patience G5281 of hope G1680 in our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 in the sight G1715 of God G2316 and our Father; G3962

And the Lord G2962 make G4121 you to increase G4121 and abound G4052 in love G25 one G240 toward G1519 another, G240 and toward G1519 all G3956 men, even G2532 as we do toward G1519 you:

But as touching G4012 brotherly G5360 love G5360 you need G5532 not that I write G1125 to you: for you yourselves G846 are taught G2312 of God G2312 to love G25 one G240 another. G240

And indeed G1063 you do G4160 it toward G1519 all G3956 the brothers G80 which G3588 are in all G3650 Macedonia: G3109 but we beseech G3870 you, brothers, G80 that you increase G4052 more G3123 and more; G3123

We are bound G3784 to thank G2168 God G2316 always G3842 for you, brothers, G80 as it is meet, G514 because G3754 that your G5216 faith G4102 grows G5232 exceedingly, and the charity G26 of every G1538 one G1520 of you all G3956 toward G1519 each G240 other G240 abounds; G4121

Now G1161 the end G5056 of the commandment G3852 is charity G26 out of a pure G2513 heart, G2588 and of a good G18 conscience, G4893 and of faith G4102 unfeigned: G505

Seeing you have purified G48 your G5216 souls G5590 in obeying G5218 the truth G225 through G1223 the Spirit G4151 to unfeigned G505 love G5360 of the brothers, G5360 see that you love G25 one G240 another G240 with a pure G2513 heart G2588 fervently: G1619

And we have known G1097 and believed G4100 the love G26 that God G2316 has G2192 to us. God G2316 is love; G26 and he that dwells G3306 in love G26 dwells G3306 in God, G2316 and God G2316 in him.
