Why, G1352 though I might be much G4183 bold G3954 in Christ G5547 to enjoin G2004 you that which is convenient, G433

Yet for love's G26 sake I rather G3123 beseech G3870 you, being G5607 such G5108 an one as Paul G3972 the aged, G4246 and now G3570 also G2532 a prisoner G1198 of Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547

Not for that we have dominion G2961 over your G5216 faith, G4102 but are helpers G4904 of your G5216 joy: G5479 for by faith G4102 you stand. G2476

Neither G3366 as being lords G2634 over G2634 God's G2316 heritage, G2819 but being G1096 ensamples G5179 to the flock. G4168

I know H3045 also, my God, H430 that you try H974 the heart, H3824 and have pleasure H7521 in uprightness. H3476 As for me, in the uprightness H4339 of my heart H3824 I have willingly H5068 offered all H3605 these H428 things: and now H6258 have I seen H7200 with joy H8057 your people, H5971 which are present H4672 here, H6311 to offer willingly H5068 to you.

Your people H5971 shall be willing H5071 in the day H3117 of your power, H2428 in the beauties H1926 of holiness H6944 from the womb H7358 of the morning: H4891 you have the dew H2919 of your youth. H3208

Who G5100 goes a warfare G4754 any G4218 time G4218 at G4218 his own G2398 charges? G3800 who G5100 plants G5452 a vineyard, G290 and eats G2068 not of the fruit G2590 thereof? G846 or G2228 who G5100 feeds G4165 a flock, G4167 and eats G2068 not of the milk G1051 of the flock? G4167

For if G1487 I do G4238 this G5124 thing willingly, G1635 I have G2192 a reward: G3408 but if G1487 against G210 my will, G210 a dispensation G3622 of the gospel is committed G4100 to me.

For if G1487 there be first G4295 a willing G4288 mind, G4288 it is accepted G2144 according G2526 to that a man G5100 has, G2192 and not according G2526 to that he has G2192 not.

Therefore G3767 I thought G2233 it necessary G316 to exhort G3870 the brothers, G80 that they would go G4281 before G4281 to you, and make G4294 up beforehand G4293 your bounty, G2129 whereof you had notice G4293 before, that the same G5026 might be ready, G2092 as a matter of bounty, G2129 and not as of covetousness. G4124

Every G1538 man according G2531 as he purposes G4255 in his heart, G2588 so let him give; not grudgingly, G1537 G3077 or G2228 of necessity: G318 for God G2316 loves G25 a cheerful G2431 giver. G1395

Feed G4165 the flock G4168 of God G2316 which is among G1722 you, taking the oversight G1983 thereof, not by constraint, G317 but willingly; G1596 not for filthy G147 lucre, G147 but of a ready G4289 mind; G4290
