But if G1487 any G5100 widow G5503 have G2192 children G5043 or G2228 nephews, G1549 let them learn G3129 first G4412 to show G2151 piety G2151 at home, G2398 and to requite G287 G591 their parents: G4269 for that is good G2570 and acceptable G587 before G1799 God. G2316

I beseech G3870 you therefore, G3767 brothers, G80 by the mercies G3628 of God, G2316 that you present G3936 your G5216 bodies G4983 a living G2198 sacrifice, G2378 holy, G40 acceptable G2101 to God, G2316 which is your G5216 reasonable G3050 service. G2999

And be not conformed G4964 to this G5129 world: G165 but be you transformed G3339 by the renewing G342 of your G5216 mind, G3563 that you may prove G1381 what G5101 is that good, G18 and acceptable, G2101 and perfect, G5046 will G2307 of God. G2316

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

(For the fruit G2590 of the Spirit G4151 is in all G3956 goodness G19 and righteousness G1343 and truth; G226 )

Proving G1381 what G5101 is acceptable G2101 to the Lord. G2962

Being filled G4137 with the fruits G2590 of righteousness, G1343 which G3588 are by Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 to the glory G1391 and praise G1868 of God. G2316

But I have G568 all, G3956 and abound: G4052 I am full, G4137 having received G1209 of Epaphroditus G1891 the things which were sent from you, an odor G3744 of a sweet G2175 smell, G2175 a sacrifice G2378 acceptable, G1184 well pleasing G2101 to God. G2316

That you might walk G4043 worthy G516 of the Lord G2962 to all G3956 pleasing, G699 being fruitful G2592 in every G3956 good G18 work, G2041 and increasing G837 in the knowledge G1922 of God; G2316

Furthermore G3063 then G3767 we beseech G2065 you, brothers, G80 and exhort G3870 you by the Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 that as you have G2192 received G3880 of us how G4459 you ought G1163 to walk G4043 and to please G700 God, G2316 so you would abound G4052 more G3123 and more. G3123

But to do G2140 good G2140 and to communicate G2842 forget G1950 not: for with such G5108 sacrifices G2378 God G2316 is well G2100 pleased. G2100

You also, G2532 as lively G2198 stones, G3037 are built G3618 up a spiritual G4152 house, G3624 an holy G40 priesthood, G2406 to offer G399 up spiritual G4152 sacrifices, G2378 acceptable G2144 to God G2316 by Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547

For what G4169 glory G2811 is it, if, G1487 when you be buffeted G2852 for your faults, G264 you shall take it patiently? G5278 but if, G1487 when you do G15 well, G15 and suffer G3958 for it, you take it patiently, G5278 this G5124 is acceptable G5485 with God. G2316

Paul, G3972 an apostle G652 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 by the commandment G2003 of God G2316 our Savior, G4990 and Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 which G3588 is our hope; G1680

Tell H5046 you, and bring H5066 them near; H5066 yes, H637 let them take counsel H3289 together: H3162 who H4310 has declared H8085 this H2063 from ancient H6924 time? who has told H5046 it from that time? H227 have not I the LORD? H3068 and there is no H369 God H430 else H5750 beside H1107 me; a just H6662 God H410 and a Savior; H3467 there is none H369 beside H2108 me.

And my spirit G4151 has rejoiced G21 in God G2316 my Savior. G4990

Who G3588 has saved G4982 us, and called G2564 us with an holy G40 calling, G2821 not according G2596 to our works, G2041 but according G2596 to his own G2398 purpose G4286 and grace, G5485 which G3588 was given G1325 us in Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 before G4253 the world G166 began,
