: 2Corinthians   1

 : 1 .  Paul <3972 - Paulos - > ,  an apostle <0652 - apostolos - > of Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > by the will <2307 - thelema - > of God <2316 - theos - > ,  and Timothy <5095 - Timotheos - >  [ our ]  brother <0080 - adephos - > ,  unto the church <1577 - ekklesia - > of God <2316 - theos - > which <3588 - ho - > is at <1722 - en - > Corinth <2882 - Korinthos - > ,  with all <3956 - pas - > the saints <0040 - hagios - > which <3588 - ho - > are in all <3650 - holos - > Achaia <0882 - Achaia - > :

 : 2  Grace <5485 - charis - >  [ be ]  to you and peace <1515 - eirene - > from God <2316 - theos - > our Father <3962 - pater - > ,  and  [ from ]  the Lord <2962 - kurios - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 3 .  Blessed <2128 - eulogetos - >  [ be ]  God <2316 - theos - > ,  even <2532 - kai - > the Father <3962 - pater - > of our Lord <2962 - kurios - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  the Father <3962 - pater - > of mercies <3628 - oiktirmos - > ,  and the God <2316 - theos - > of all <3650 - holos - > comfort <3874 - paraklesis - > ;

 : 4  Who <3588 - ho - > comforteth <3870 - parakaleo - > us in all <3650 - holos - > our tribulation <2347 - thlipsis - > ,  that we may be able <1410 - dunamai - > to comfort <3870 - parakaleo - > them which are in any <3956 - pas - > trouble <2347 - thlipsis - > ,  by the comfort <3874 - paraklesis - > wherewith <3739 - hos - > we ourselves are comforted <3870 - parakaleo - > of God <2316 - theos - > .

 : 5  For as the sufferings <3804 - pathema - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > abound <4052 - perisseuo - > in us ,  so <3779 - houto - > our consolation <3874 - paraklesis - > also <2532 - kai - > aboundeth <4052 - perisseuo - > by Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 6  And whether <1535 - eite - > we be afflicted <2346 - thlibo - > ,   [ it is ]  for your <5216 - humon - > consolation <3874 - paraklesis - > and salvation <4991 - soteria - > ,  which <3588 - ho - > is effectual <1754 - energeo - > in the enduring <5281 - hupomone - > of the same <0846 - autos - > sufferings <3804 - pathema - > which <3588 - ho - > we also <2532 - kai - > suffer <3958 - pascho - > :  or <1535 - eite - > whether <1535 - eite - > we be comforted <3870 - parakaleo - > ,   [ it is ]  for your <5216 - humon - > consolation <3874 - paraklesis - > and salvation <4991 - soteria - > .

 : 7 .  And our hope <1680 - elpis - > of you  [ is ]  stedfast <0949 - bebaios - > ,  knowing <1492 - eido - > ,  that as ye are partakers <2844 - koinonos - > of the sufferings <3804 - pathema - > ,  so <3779 - houto - >  [ shall ye be ]  also <2532 - kai - > of the consolation <3874 - paraklesis - > .

 : 8  For we would <2309 - thelo - > not ,  brethren <0080 - adephos - > ,  have you ignorant <0050 - agnoeo - > of our trouble <2347 - thlipsis - > which <3588 - ho - > came <1096 - ginomai - > to us in Asia <0773 - Asia - > ,  that we were pressed <0916 - bareo - > out of measure <5236 - huperbole - > ,  above <5228 - huper - > strength <1411 - dunamis - > ,  insomuch <5620 - hoste - > that we despaired <1820 - exaporeomai - > even <2532 - kai - > of life <2198 - zao - > :

 : 9  But we had <2192 - echo - > the sentence <0610 - apokrima - > of death <2288 - thanatos - > in ourselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  that we should not trust <3982 - peitho - > in ourselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  but in God <2316 - theos - > which <3588 - ho - > raiseth <1453 - egeiro - > the dead <3498 - nekros - > :

 : 10  Who delivered <4506 - rhoumai - > us from so <5082 - telikoutos - > great <5082 - telikoutos - > a death <2288 - thanatos - > ,  and doth deliver <4506 - rhoumai - > :  in whom <3739 - hos - > we trust <1679 - elpizo - > that he will yet <2089 - eti - > deliver <4506 - rhoumai - >  [ us ]  ;

 : 11  Ye also <2532 - kai - > helping <4943 - sunupourgeo - > together <4943 - sunupourgeo - > by prayer <1162 - deesis - > for us ,  that for the gift <5486 - charisma - >  [ bestowed ]  upon us by the means of many <4183 - polus - > persons <4383 - prosopon - > thanks <2168 - eucharisteo - > may be given by many <4183 - polus - > on <5228 - huper - > our behalf <5228 - huper - > .

 : 12 .  For our rejoicing <2746 - kauchesis - > is this <3778 - houtos - > ,  the testimony <3142 - marturion - > of our conscience <4893 - suneidesis - > ,  that in simplicity <0572 - haplotes - > and godly <2316 - theos - > sincerity <1505 - eilikrineia - > ,  not with fleshly <4559 - sarkikos - > wisdom <4678 - sophia - > ,  but by the grace <5485 - charis - > of God <2316 - theos - > ,  we have had our conversation <0390 - anastrepho - > in the world <2889 - kosmos - > ,  and more <4056 - perissoteros - > abundantly <4056 - perissoteros - > to you - ward <5209 - humas - > .

 : 13  For we write <1125 - grapho - > none <3756 - ou - > other <0243 - allos - > things unto you ,  than <2228 - e - > what <3739 - hos - > ye read <0314 - anaginosko - > or <2228 - e - > acknowledge <1921 - epiginosko - > ;  and I trust <1679 - elpizo - > ye shall acknowledge <1921 - epiginosko - > even <2532 - kai - > to the end <5056 - telos - > ;

 : 14  As also <2532 - kai - > ye have acknowledged <1922 - epignosis - > us in part <3313 - meros - > ,  that we are your <5216 - humon - > rejoicing <2745 - kauchema - > ,  even <2509 - kathaper - > as ye also <2532 - kai - >  [ are ]  ours <2257 - hemon - > in the day <2250 - hemera - > of the Lord <2962 - kurios - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > .

 : 15 .  And in this <5026 - taute - > confidence <4006 - pepoithesis - > I was minded <1014 - boo - lom - ahee - > to come <2064 - erchomai - > unto you before <4386 - proteron - > ,  that ye might have <2192 - echo - > a second <1208 - deuteros - > benefit <5485 - charis - > ;

 : 16  And to pass <1330 - dierchomai - > by you into <1519 - eis - > Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > ,  and to come <2064 - erchomai - > again <3825 - palin - > out of Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > unto you ,  and of you to be brought <4311 - propempo - > on my way <4311 - propempo - > toward <1519 - eis - > Judaea <2449 - Ioudaia - > .

 : 17  When I therefore <3767 - oun - > was thus <5124 - touto - > minded <1011 - bouleuo - > ,  did I use <5530 - chraomai - > lightness <1644 - elaphria - > ?  or <2228 - e - > the things that I purpose <1011 - bouleuo - > ,  do I purpose <1011 - bouleuo - > according <2596 - kata - > to the flesh <4561 - sarx - > ,  that with me there should be yea <3483 - nai - > yea <3483 - nai - > ,  and nay <3756 - ou - > nay <3756 - ou - > ?

 : 18  But  [ as ]  God <2316 - theos - >  [ is ]  true <4103 - pistos - > ,  our word <3056 - logos - > toward <4314 - pros - > you was not yea <3483 - nai - > and nay <3756 - ou - > .

 : 19  For the Son <5207 - huios - > of God <2316 - theos - > ,  Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  who <3588 - ho - > was preached <2784 - kerusso - > among <1722 - en - > you by us ,   [ even ]  by me and Silvanus <4610 - Silouanos - > and Timotheus <5095 - Timotheos - > ,  was not yea <3483 - nai - > and nay <3756 - ou - > ,  but in him was yea <3483 - nai - > .

 : 20  For all <3745 - hosos - > the promises <1860 - epaggelia - > of God <2316 - theos - > in him  [ are ]  yea <3483 - nai - > ,  and in him Amen <0281 - amen - > ,  unto the glory <1391 - doxa - > of God <2316 - theos - > by us .

 : 21  Now <1161 - de - > he which stablisheth <0950 - bebaioo - > us with you in Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  and hath anointed <5548 - chrio - > us ,   [ is ]  God <2316 - theos - > ;

 : 22  Who <3588 - ho - > hath also <2532 - kai - > sealed <4972 - sphragizo - > us ,  and given <1325 - didomi - > the earnest <0728 - arrhabon - > of the Spirit <4151 - pneuma - > in our hearts <2588 - kardia - > .

 : 23  Moreover <1161 - de - > I call <1941 - epikaleomai - > God <2316 - theos - > for a record <3144 - martus - > upon my soul <5590 - psuche - > ,  that to spare <5339 - pheidomai - > you I came <2064 - erchomai - > not as yet <3765 - ouketi - > unto Corinth <2882 - Korinthos - > .

 : 24  Not for that we have dominion <2961 - kurieuo - > over your <5216 - humon - > faith <4102 - pistis - > ,  but are helpers <4904 - sunergos - > of your <5216 - humon - > joy <5479 - chara - > :  for by faith <4102 - pistis - > ye stand <2476 - histemi - > .

 : 2Corinthians   2

 : 1 .  But I determined <2919 - krino - > this <5124 - touto - > with myself <1683 - emautou - > ,  that I would not come <2064 - erchomai - > again <3825 - palin - > to you in heaviness <3077 - lupe - > .

 : 2  For if <1487 - ei - > I make <3076 - lupeo - > you sorry <3076 - lupeo - > ,  who <5101 - tis - > is he then <2532 - kai - > that maketh <2165 - euphraino - > me glad <2165 - euphraino - > ,  but the same which is made <3076 - lupeo - > sorry <3076 - lupeo - > by me ?

 : 3  And I wrote <1125 - grapho - > this <5124 - touto - > same <0846 - autos - > unto you ,  lest <3361 - me - > ,  when I came <2064 - erchomai - > ,  I should have <2192 - echo - > sorrow <3077 - lupe - > from them of whom <3739 - hos - > I ought <1163 - dei - > to rejoice <5463 - chairo - > ;  having confidence <3982 - peitho - > in you all <3956 - pas - > ,  that my joy <5479 - chara - > is  [ the joy ]  of you all <3956 - pas - > .

 : 4  For out of much <4183 - polus - > affliction <2347 - thlipsis - > and anguish <4928 - sunoche - > of heart <2588 - kardia - > I wrote <1125 - grapho - > unto you with many <4183 - polus - > tears <1144 - dakru - > ;  not that ye should be grieved <3076 - lupeo - > ,  but that ye might know <1097 - ginosko - > the love <0026 - agape - > which <3739 - hos - > I have <2192 - echo - > more <4056 - perissoteros - > abundantly <4056 - perissoteros - > unto you .

 : 5 .  But if <1487 - ei - > any <5100 - tis - > have caused <3076 - lupeo - > grief <3076 - lupeo - > ,  he hath not grieved <3076 - lupeo - > me ,  but in part <3313 - meros - > :  that I may not overcharge <1912 - epibareo - > you all <3956 - pas - > .

 : 6  Sufficient <2425 - hikanos - > to such <5108 - toioutos - > a man  [ is ]  this <3778 - houtos - > punishment <2009 - epitimia - > ,  which <3588 - ho - >  [ was inflicted ]  of many <4119 - pleion - > .

 : 7  So <5620 - hoste - > that contrariwise <5121 - tounantion - > ye  [ ought ]  rather <3123 - mallon - > to forgive <5483 - charizomai - >  [ him ]  ,  and comfort <3870 - parakaleo - >  [ him ]  ,  lest <3381 - mepos - > perhaps <3381 - mepos - > such <5108 - toioutos - > a one should be swallowed <2666 - katapino - > up with overmuch <4055 - perissoteros - > sorrow <3077 - lupe - > .

 : 8  Wherefore <1352 - dio - > I beseech <3870 - parakaleo - > you that ye would confirm <2964 - kuroo - >  [ your ]  love <0026 - agape - > toward <1519 - eis - > him .

 : 9  For to this <5124 - touto - > end also <2532 - kai - > did I write <1125 - grapho - > ,  that I might know <1097 - ginosko - > the proof <1382 - dokime - > of you ,  whether <1487 - ei - > ye be obedient <5255 - hupekoos - > in all <3956 - pas - > things .

 : 10  To whom <3739 - hos - > ye forgive <5483 - charizomai - > any <5100 - tis - > thing ,  I  [ forgive <5483 - charizomai - > ]  also <2532 - kai - > :  for if <1487 - ei - > I forgave <5483 - charizomai - > any <1536 - ei tis - > thing ,  to whom <3739 - hos - > I forgave <5483 - charizomai - >  [ it ]  ,  for your <5209 - humas - > sakes  [ forgave I it ]  in the person <4383 - prosopon - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > ;

 : 11  Lest <3361 - me - > Satan <4567 - Satanas - > should get <4122 - pleonekteo - > an advantage <4122 - pleonekteo - > of us :  for we are not ignorant <0050 - agnoeo - > of his devices <3540 - noema - > .

 : 12 .  Furthermore <1161 - de - > ,  when I came <2064 - erchomai - > to Troas <5174 - Troas - > to  [ preach ]  Christ s <5547 - Christos - > gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > ,  and a door <2374 - thura - > was opened <0455 - anoigo - > unto me of the Lord <2962 - kurios - > ,

 : 13  I had <2192 - echo - > no <3756 - ou - > rest <0425 - anesis - > in my spirit <4151 - pneuma - > ,  because I found <2147 - heurisko - > not Titus <5103 - Titos - > my brother <0080 - adephos - > :  but taking my leave <0657 - apotassomai - > of them ,  I went <1831 - exerchomai - > from thence into <1519 - eis - > Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > .

 : 14  Now <1161 - de - > thanks <5485 - charis - >  [ be ]  unto God <2316 - theos - > ,  which always <3842 - pantote - > causeth <2358 - thriambeuo - > us to triumph <2358 - thriambeuo - > in Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  and maketh <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > the savour <3744 - osme - > of his knowledge <1108 - gnosis - > by us in every <3956 - pas - > place <5117 - topos - > .

 : 15  For we are unto God <2316 - theos - > a sweet <2175 - euodia - > savour <2175 - euodia - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  in them that are saved <4982 - sozo - > ,  and in them that perish <0622 - apollumi - > :

 : 16  To the one <3303 - men - >  [ we are ]  the savour <3744 - osme - > of death <2288 - thanatos - > unto death <2288 - thanatos - > ;  and to the other <3739 - hos - > the savour <3744 - osme - > of life <2222 - zoe - > unto life <2222 - zoe - > .  And who <5101 - tis - >  [ is ]  sufficient <2425 - hikanos - > for these <5023 - tauta - > things ?

 : 17  For we are not as many <4183 - polus - > ,  which corrupt <2585 - kapeleuo - > the word <3056 - logos - > of God <2316 - theos - > :  but as of sincerity <1505 - eilikrineia - > ,  but as of God <2316 - theos - > ,  in the sight <2714 - katenopion - > of God <2316 - theos - > speak <2980 - laleo - > we in Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 2Corinthians   3

 : 1 .  Do we begin <0756 - archomai - > again <3825 - palin - > to commend <4921 - sunistao - > ourselves <1438 - heautou - > ?  or <3361 - me - > need <5535 - chreizo - > we ,  as some <5100 - tis - >  [ others ]  ,  epistles <1992 - epistole - > of commendation <4956 - sustatikos - > to you ,  or <2228 - e - >  [ letters ]  of commendation <4956 - sustatikos - > from you ?

 : 2  Ye are our epistle <1992 - epistole - > written <1449 - eggrapho - > in our hearts <2588 - kardia - > ,  known <1097 - ginosko - > and read <0314 - anaginosko - > of all <3956 - pas - > men <0444 - anthropos - > :

 : 3   [ Forasmuch as ye are ]  manifestly <5319 - phaneroo - > declared <5319 - phaneroo - > to be the epistle <1992 - epistole - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > ministered <1247 - diakoneo - > by us ,  written <1449 - eggrapho - > not with ink <3188 - melan - > ,  but with the Spirit <4151 - pneuma - > of the living <2198 - zao - > God <2316 - theos - > ;  not in tables <4109 - plax - > of stone <3035 - lithinos - > ,  but in fleshy <4560 - sarkinos - > tables <4109 - plax - > of the heart <2588 - kardia - > .

 : 4  And such <5108 - toioutos - > trust <4006 - pepoithesis - > have <2192 - echo - > we through <1223 - dia - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > to God - ward <2316 - theos - > :

 : 5  Not that we are sufficient <2425 - hikanos - > of ourselves <1438 - heautou - > to think <3049 - logizomai - > any <5100 - tis - > thing as of ourselves <1438 - heautou - > ;  but our sufficiency <2426 - hikanotes - >  [ is ]  of God <2316 - theos - > ;

 : 6 .  Who <3739 - hos - > also <2532 - kai - > hath made <2427 - hikanoo - > us able <2427 - hikanoo - > ministers <1249 - diakonos - > of the new <2537 - kainos - > testament <1242 - diatheke - > ;  not of the letter <1121 - gramma - > ,  but of the spirit <4151 - pneuma - > :  for the letter <1121 - gramma - > killeth <0615 - apokteino - > ,  but the spirit <4151 - pneuma - > giveth life <2227 - zoopoieo - > .

 : 7  But if <1487 - ei - > the ministration <1248 - diakonia - > of death <2288 - thanatos - > ,  written <1121 - gramma - >  [ and ]  engraven <1795 - entupoo - > in stones <3037 - lithos - > ,  was glorious <1391 - doxa - > ,  so <5620 - hoste - > that the children <5207 - huios - > of Israel <2474 - Israel - > could <1410 - dunamai - > not stedfastly <0816 - atenizo - > behold <0816 - atenizo - > the face <4383 - prosopon - > of Moses <3475 - Moseus - > for the glory <1391 - doxa - > of his countenance <4383 - prosopon - > ;  which <3588 - ho - >  [ glory <1391 - doxa - > ]  was to be done <2763 - kerameus - > away <2673 - katargeo - > :

 : 8  How <4459 - pos - > shall not the ministration <1248 - diakonia - > of the spirit <4151 - pneuma - > be rather <3123 - mallon - > glorious <1391 - doxa - > ?

 : 9  For if <1487 - ei - > the ministration <1248 - diakonia - > of condemnation <2633 - katakrisis - >  [ be ]  glory <1391 - doxa - > ,  much <4183 - polus - > more <3123 - mallon - > doth the ministration <1248 - diakonia - > of righteousness <1343 - dikaiosune - > exceed <4052 - perisseuo - > in glory <1391 - doxa - > .

 : 10  For even <2532 - kai - > that which was made <1392 - doxazo - > glorious <1392 - doxazo - > had no <3761 - oude - > glory <1392 - doxazo - > in this <5129 - toutoi - > respect <3313 - meros - > ,  by reason <1752 - heneka - > of the glory <1391 - doxa - > that excelleth <5235 - huperballo - > .

 : 11  For if <1487 - ei - > that which is done <2673 - katargeo - > away <2673 - katargeo - >  [ was ]  glorious <1391 - doxa - > ,  much <4183 - polus - > more <3123 - mallon - > that which remaineth <3306 - meno - >  [ is ]  glorious <1391 - doxa - > .

 : 12 .  Seeing then <3767 - oun - > that we have <2192 - echo - > such <5108 - toioutos - > hope <1680 - elpis - > ,  we use <5530 - chraomai - > great <4183 - polus - > plainness <3954 - parrhesia - > of speech :

 : 13  And not as Moses <3475 - Moseus - > ,   [ which ]  put <5087 - tithemi - > a vail <2571 - kaluma - > over <1909 - epi - > his face <4383 - prosopon - > ,  that the children <5207 - huios - > of Israel <2474 - Israel - > could not stedfastly <0816 - atenizo - > look <0816 - atenizo - > to the end <5056 - telos - > of that which is abolished <2673 - katargeo - > :

 : 14  But their minds <3540 - noema - > were blinded <4456 - poroo - > :  for until <0891 - achri - > this <4594 - semeron - > day <4594 - semeron - > remaineth <3306 - meno - > the same <0846 - autos - > vail <2571 - kaluma - > untaken <0343 - anakalupto - > away <0343 - anakalupto - > in the reading <0320 - angnosis - > of the old <3820 - palaios - > testament <1242 - diatheke - > ;  which <3748 - hostis - >  [ vail ]  is done <2763 - kerameus - > away <2673 - katargeo - > in Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 15  But even <2193 - heos - > unto this <4594 - semeron - > day <4594 - semeron - > ,  when <2259 - henika - > Moses <3475 - Moseus - > is read <0314 - anaginosko - > ,  the vail <2571 - kaluma - > is upon their heart <2588 - kardia - > .

 : 3  But if <1499 - ei kai - > our gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > be hid <2572 - kalupto - > ,  it is hid <2572 - kalupto - > to them that are lost <0622 - apollumi - > :

 : 8 .   [ We are ]  troubled <2346 - thlibo - > on <1722 - en - > every <3956 - pas - > side ,  yet <0235 - alla - > not distressed <4729 - stenochoreo - > ;   [ we are ]  perplexed <0639 - aporeo - > ,  but not in despair <1820 - exaporeomai - > ;

 : 11  For we which <3588 - ho - > live <2198 - zao - > are alway <0104 - aei - > delivered <3860 - paradidomi - > unto death <2288 - thanatos - > for Jesus <2424 - Iesous - >  sake ,  that the life <2222 - zoe - > also <2532 - kai - > of Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > might be made <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > in our mortal <2349 - thnetos - > flesh <4561 - sarx - > .

 : 12  So <5620 - hoste - > then <3303 - men - > death <2288 - thanatos - > worketh <1754 - energeo - > in us ,  but life <2222 - zoe - > in you .

 : 16  For which <1352 - dio - > cause <1352 - dio - > we faint <1573 - ekkakeo - > not ;  but though <1499 - ei kai - > our outward <1854 - exo - > man <0444 - anthropos - > perish <1311 - diaphtheiro - > ,  yet <0235 - alla - > the inward <2081 - esothen - >  [ man ]  is renewed <0341 - anakainoo - > day <2250 - hemera - > by day <2250 - hemera - > .

 : 17  For our light <1645 - elaphros - > affliction <2347 - thlipsis - > ,  which <3588 - ho - > is but for a moment <3910 - parautika - > ,  worketh <2716 - katergazomai - > for us a far <5236 - huperbole - > more <5236 - huperbole - > exceeding <5236 - huperbole - >  [ and ]  eternal <0166 - aionios - > weight <0922 - baros - > of glory <1391 - doxa - > ;

 : 2Corinthians   5

 : 1 .  For we know <1492 - eido - > that if <1437 - ean - > our earthly <1919 - epigeios - > house <3614 - oikia - > of  [ this <3588 - ho - > ]  tabernacle <4636 - skenos - > were dissolved <2647 - kataluo - > ,  we have <2192 - echo - > a building <3619 - oikodome - > of God <2316 - theos - > ,  an house <3614 - oikia - > not made <0886 - acheiropoietos - > with hands <0886 - acheiropoietos - > ,  eternal <0166 - aionios - > in the heavens <3772 - ouranos - > .

 : 2  For in this <5129 - toutoi - > we groan <4727 - stenazo - > ,  earnestly <1971 - epipotheo - > desiring <1971 - epipotheo - > to be clothed <1902 - ependuomai - > upon with our house <3613 - oiketerion - > which <3588 - ho - > is from heaven <3772 - ouranos - > :

 : 3  If <1489 - eige - > so be that being clothed <1746 - enduo - > we shall not be found <2147 - heurisko - > naked <1131 - gumnos - > .

 : 4  For we that are in  [ this <3588 - ho - > ]  tabernacle <4636 - skenos - > do groan <4727 - stenazo - > ,  being burdened <0916 - bareo - > :  not for that we would <2309 - thelo - > be unclothed <1562 - ekduo - > ,  but clothed <1902 - ependuomai - > upon ,  that mortality <2349 - thnetos - > might be swallowed <2666 - katapino - > up of life <2222 - zoe - > .

 : 5  Now <1161 - de - > he that hath wrought <2716 - katergazomai - > us for the selfsame <5124 - touto - > thing  [ is ]  God <2316 - theos - > ,  who <3588 - ho - > also <2532 - kai - > hath given <1325 - didomi - > unto us the earnest <0728 - arrhabon - > of the Spirit <4151 - pneuma - > .

 : 6  Therefore <3767 - oun - >  [ we are ]  always <3842 - pantote - > confident <2292 - tharrheo - > ,  knowing <1492 - eido - > that ,  whilst we are at <1722 - en - > home <1736 - endemeo - > in the body <4983 - soma - > ,  we are absent <0553 - apekdechomai - > from the Lord <2962 - kurios - > :

 : 7   ( For we walk <4043 - peripateo - > by faith <4102 - pistis - > ,  not by sight <1491 - eidos - > :  )

 : 8  We are confident <2292 - tharrheo - > ,   [ I say ]  ,  and willing <2106 - eudokeo - > rather <3123 - mallon - > to be absent <0553 - apekdechomai - > from the body <4983 - soma - > ,  and to be present <1736 - endemeo - > with the Lord <2962 - kurios - > .

 : 9  Wherefore <1352 - dio - > we labour <5389 - philotimeomai - > ,  that ,  whether <1535 - eite - > present <1736 - endemeo - > or <1535 - eite - > absent <0553 - apekdechomai - > ,  we may be accepted <2101 - euarestos - > of him .

 : 10  For we must <1163 - dei - > all <3956 - pas - > appear <5319 - phaneroo - > before <1715 - emprosthen - > the judgment <0968 - bema - > seat <0968 - bema - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > ;  that every <1538 - hekastos - > one may receive <2865 - komizo - > the things  [ done ]  in  [ his ]  body <4983 - soma - > ,  according <4314 - pros - > to that he hath done <4238 - prasso - > ,  whether <1535 - eite - >  [ it be ]  good <0018 - agathos - > or <1535 - eite - > bad <2556 - kakos - > .

 : 11  Knowing <1492 - eido - > therefore <3767 - oun - > the terror <5401 - phobos - > of the Lord <2962 - kurios - > ,  we persuade <3982 - peitho - > men <0444 - anthropos - > ;  but we are made <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > unto God <2316 - theos - > ;  and I trust <1679 - elpizo - > also <2532 - kai - > are made <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > in your <5216 - humon - > consciences <4893 - suneidesis - > .

 : 12 .  For we commend <4921 - sunistao - > not ourselves <1438 - heautou - > again <3825 - palin - > unto you ,  but give <1325 - didomi - > you occasion <0874 - aphorme - > to glory <2745 - kauchema - > on <5228 - huper - > our behalf <5228 - huper - > ,  that ye may have <2192 - echo - > somewhat to  [ answer ]  them which glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > in appearance <4383 - prosopon - > ,  and not in heart <2588 - kardia - > .

 : 13  For whether <1535 - eite - > we be beside <1839 - existemi - > ourselves ,   [ it is ]  to God <2316 - theos - > :  or <1535 - eite - > whether <1535 - eite - > we be sober <4993 - sophroneo - > ,   [ it is ]  for your <5213 - humin - > cause .

 : 14  For the love <0026 - agape - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > constraineth <4912 - sunecho - > us ;  because we thus <5124 - touto - > judge <2919 - krino - > ,  that if <1487 - ei - > one <1520 - heis - > died <0599 - apothnesko - > for all <3956 - pas - > ,  then <0686 - ara - > were all <3956 - pas - > dead <0599 - apothnesko - > :

 : 15  And  [ that ]  he died <0599 - apothnesko - > for all <3956 - pas - > ,  that they which live <2198 - zao - > should not henceforth <3371 - meketi - > live <2198 - zao - > unto themselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  but unto him which died <0599 - apothnesko - > for them ,  and rose <1453 - egeiro - > again <1453 - egeiro - > .

 : 16 .  Wherefore <5620 - hoste - > henceforth <3568 - nun - > know <1492 - eido - > we no <3762 - oudeis - > man <3762 - oudeis - > after <2596 - kata - > the flesh <4561 - sarx - > :  yea <1161 - de - > ,  though <1499 - ei kai - > we have known <1097 - ginosko - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > after <2596 - kata - > the flesh <4561 - sarx - > ,  yet <0235 - alla - > now <3568 - nun - > henceforth <2089 - eti - > know <1097 - ginosko - > we  [ him ]  no <3765 - ouketi - > more <2089 - eti - > .

 : 17  Therefore <5620 - hoste - > if <1487 - ei - > any <1536 - ei tis - > man  [ be ]  in Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,   [ he is ]  a new <2537 - kainos - > creature <2937 - ktisis - > :  old <0744 - archaios - > things are passed <3928 - parerchomai - > away ;  behold <2400 - idou - > ,  all <3956 - pas - > things are become <1096 - ginomai - > new <2537 - kainos - > .

 : 18  And all <3956 - pas - > things  [ are ]  of God <2316 - theos - > ,  who <3588 - ho - > hath reconciled <2644 - katallasso - > us to himself <1438 - heautou - > by Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  and hath given <1325 - didomi - > to us the ministry <1248 - diakonia - > of reconciliation <2643 - katallage - > ;

 : 19  To wit <5613 - hos - > ,  that God <2316 - theos - > was in Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  reconciling <2644 - katallasso - > the world <2889 - kosmos - > unto himself <1438 - heautou - > ,  not imputing <3049 - logizomai - > their trespasses <3900 - paraptoma - > unto them ;  and hath committed <5087 - tithemi - > unto us the word <3056 - logos - > of reconciliation <2643 - katallage - > .

 : 20  Now then we are ambassadors <4243 - presbeuo - > for Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  as though God <2316 - theos - > did beseech <3870 - parakaleo - >  [ you ]  by us :  we pray <1189 - deomai - >  [ you ]  in Christ s <5547 - Christos - > stead <5228 - huper - > ,  be ye reconciled <2644 - katallasso - > to God <2316 - theos - > .

 : 21  For he hath made <4160 - poieo - > him  [ to be ]  sin <0266 - hamartia - > for us ,  who knew <1097 - ginosko - > no <3361 - me - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > ;  that we might be made <1096 - ginomai - > the righteousness <1343 - dikaiosune - > of God <2316 - theos - > in him .

 : 15  And what <5101 - tis - > concord <4857 - sumphonesis - > hath Christ <5547 - Christos - > with Belial <0955 - Belial - > ?  or <2228 - e - > what <5101 - tis - > part <3310 - meris - > hath he that believeth <4103 - pistos - > with an infidel <0571 - apistos - > ?

 : 1 .  Having <2192 - echo - > therefore <3767 - oun - > these <5025 - tautais - > promises <1860 - epaggelia - > ,  dearly beloved <0027 - agapetos - > ,  let us cleanse <2511 - katharizo - > ourselves <1438 - heautou - > from all <3956 - pas - > filthiness <3436 - molusmos - > of the flesh <4561 - sarx - > and spirit <4151 - pneuma - > ,  perfecting <2005 - epiteleo - > holiness <0042 - hagiosune - > in the fear <5401 - phobos - > of God <2316 - theos - > .

 : 2  Receive <5562 - choreo - > us ;  we have wronged <0091 - adikeo - > no <3762 - oudeis - > man <3762 - oudeis - > ,  we have corrupted <5351 - phtheiro - > no <3762 - oudeis - > man <3762 - oudeis - > ,  we have defrauded <4122 - pleonekteo - > no <3762 - oudeis - > man <3762 - oudeis - > .

 : 3  I speak <3004 - lego - > not  [ this ]  to condemn <2633 - katakrisis - >  [ you ]  :  for I have said <4280 - proereo - > before <4280 - proereo - > ,  that ye are in our hearts <2588 - kardia - > to die <4880 - sunapothnesko - > and live <4800 - suzao - > with  [ you ]  .

 : 4  Great <4183 - polus - >  [ is ]  my boldness <3954 - parrhesia - > of speech toward <4314 - pros - > you ,  great <4183 - polus - >  [ is ]  my glorying <2746 - kauchesis - > of you :  I am filled <4137 - pleroo - > with comfort <3874 - paraklesis - > ,  I am exceeding <5248 - huperperisseuo - > joyful <5479 - chara - > in all <3956 - pas - > our tribulation <2347 - thlipsis - > .

 : 5 .  For ,  when we were come <2064 - erchomai - > into <1519 - eis - > Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > ,  our flesh <4561 - sarx - > had <2192 - echo - > no <3762 - oudeis - > rest <0425 - anesis - > ,  but we were troubled <2346 - thlibo - > on <1722 - en - > every <3956 - pas - > side ;  without <1855 - exothen - >  [ were ]  fightings <3163 - mache - > ,  within <2081 - esothen - >  [ were ]  fears <5401 - phobos - > .

 : 6  Nevertheless <0235 - alla - > God <2316 - theos - > ,  that comforteth <3870 - parakaleo - > those <3588 - ho - > that are cast <5011 - tapeinos - > down <5011 - tapeinos - > ,  comforted <3870 - parakaleo - > us by the coming <3952 - parousia - > of Titus <5103 - Titos - > ;

 : 7  And not by his coming <3952 - parousia - > only <3440 - monon - > ,  but by the consolation <3874 - paraklesis - > wherewith <3739 - hos - > he was comforted <3870 - parakaleo - > in you ,  when he told <0312 - anaggello - > us your <5216 - humon - > earnest <1972 - epipothesis - > desire <1972 - epipothesis - > ,  your <5216 - humon - > mourning <3602 - odurmos - > ,  your <5216 - humon - > fervent <2205 - zelos - > mind toward <5228 - huper - > me ;  so <5620 - hoste - > that I rejoiced <5463 - chairo - > the more <3123 - mallon - > .

 : 8  For though <1499 - ei kai - > I made <3076 - lupeo - > you sorry <3076 - lupeo - > with a letter <1992 - epistole - > ,  I do not repent <3338 - metamellomai - > ,  though <1499 - ei kai - > I did repent <3338 - metamellomai - > :  for I perceive <0991 - blepo - > that the same <1565 - ekeinos - > epistle <1992 - epistole - > hath made <3076 - lupeo - > you sorry <3076 - lupeo - > ,  though <1499 - ei kai - >  [ it were ]  but for a season <5610 - hora - > .

 : 9  Now <3568 - nun - > I rejoice <5463 - chairo - > ,  not that ye were made <3076 - lupeo - > sorry <3076 - lupeo - > ,  but that ye sorrowed <3076 - lupeo - > to repentance <3341 - metanoia - > :  for ye were made <3076 - lupeo - > sorry <3076 - lupeo - > after <2596 - kata - > a godly <2316 - theos - > manner ,  that ye might receive <2210 - zemioo - > damage <2210 - zemioo - > by us in nothing <3367 - medeis - > .

 : 10  For godly <2316 - theos - > sorrow <3077 - lupe - > worketh <2716 - katergazomai - > repentance <3341 - metanoia - > to salvation <4991 - soteria - > not to be repented <0278 - ametameletos - > of :  but the sorrow <3077 - lupe - > of the world <2889 - kosmos - > worketh <2716 - katergazomai - > death <2288 - thanatos - > .

 : 11  For behold <2400 - idou - > this <5124 - touto - > selfsame <0846 - autos - > thing ,  that ye sorrowed <3076 - lupeo - > after <2596 - kata - > a godly <2316 - theos - > sort ,  what <4214 - posos - > carefulness <4710 - spoude - > it wrought <2716 - katergazomai - > in you ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  clearing <0627 - apologia - > of yourselves ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  indignation <0024 - aganaktesis - > ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  fear <5401 - phobos - > ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  vehement <1972 - epipothesis - > desire <1972 - epipothesis - > ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  zeal <2205 - zelos - > ,  yea <0235 - alla - > ,   [ what ]  revenge <1557 - ekdikesis - > !  In all <3956 - pas - >  [ things ]  ye have approved <4921 - sunistao - > yourselves <1438 - heautou - > to be clear <0053 - hagnos - > in this <3588 - ho - > matter <4229 - pragma - > .

 : 12 .  Wherefore <0686 - ara - > ,  though <1499 - ei kai - > I wrote <1125 - grapho - > unto you ,   [ I did it ]  not for his cause <1752 - heneka - > that had done <0091 - adikeo - > the wrong <0091 - adikeo - > ,  nor <3761 - oude - > for his cause <1752 - heneka - > that suffered wrong <0091 - adikeo - > ,  but that our care <4710 - spoude - > for you in the sight <1799 - enopion - > of God <2316 - theos - > might appear <5319 - phaneroo - > unto you .

 : 13  Therefore <5124 - touto - > we were comforted <3870 - parakaleo - > in your <5213 - humin - > comfort <3874 - paraklesis - > :  yea ,  and exceedingly <4056 - perissoteros - > the more <3123 - mallon - > joyed <5463 - chairo - > we for the joy <5479 - chara - > of Titus <5103 - Titos - > ,  because <3754 - hoti - > his spirit <4151 - pneuma - > was refreshed <0373 - anapano - > by you all <3956 - pas - > .

 : 14  For if <1487 - ei - > I have boasted <2744 - kauchaomai - > any <1536 - ei tis - > thing to him of you ,  I am not ashamed <2617 - kataischuno - > ;  but as we spake <2980 - laleo - > all <3956 - pas - > things to you in truth <0225 - aletheia - > ,  even <2532 - kai - > so <3779 - houto - > our boasting <2746 - kauchesis - > ,  which <3588 - ho - >  [ I made ]  before <1909 - epi - > Titus <5103 - Titos - > ,  is found <1096 - ginomai - > a truth <0225 - aletheia - > .

 : 15  And his inward <4698 - splagchnon - > affection <4698 - splagchnon - > is more <4056 - perissoteros - > abundant <4056 - perissoteros - > toward <1519 - eis - > you ,  whilst he remembereth <0363 - anamimnesko - > the obedience <5218 - hupakoe - > of you all <3956 - pas - > ,  how <5613 - hos - > with fear <5401 - phobos - > and trembling <5156 - tromos - > ye received <1209 - dechomai - > him .

 : 16  I rejoice <5463 - chairo - > therefore that I have confidence <2292 - tharrheo - > in you in all <3956 - pas - >  [ things ]  .

 : 2Corinthians   8

 : 1 .  Moreover <1161 - de - > ,  brethren <0080 - adephos - > ,  we do <1107 - gnorizo - > you to wit <1107 - gnorizo - > of the grace <5485 - charis - > of God <2316 - theos - > bestowed <1325 - didomi - > on <1722 - en - > the churches <1577 - ekklesia - > of Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > ;

 : 2  How that in a great <4183 - polus - > trial <1382 - dokime - > of affliction <2347 - thlipsis - > the abundance <4050 - perisseia - > of their joy <5479 - chara - > and their deep <0899 - bathos - > poverty <4432 - ptocheia - > abounded <4052 - perisseuo - > unto the riches <4149 - ploutos - > of their liberality <0572 - haplotes - > .

 : 3  For to  [ their ]  power <1411 - dunamis - > ,  I bear <3140 - martureo - > record <3140 - martureo - > ,  yea ,  and beyond <5228 - huper - >  [ their ]  power <1411 - dunamis - >  [ they were ]  willing <0830 - authairetos - > of themselves <0830 - authairetos - > ;

 : 4  Praying <1189 - deomai - > us with much <4183 - polus - > intreaty <3874 - paraklesis - > that we would receive <1209 - dechomai - > the gift <5485 - charis - > ,  and  [ take upon us ]  the fellowship <2842 - koinonia - > of the ministering <1248 - diakonia - > to the saints <0040 - hagios - > .

 : 5  And  [ this they did ]  ,  not as we hoped <1679 - elpizo - > ,  but first <4412 - proton - > gave <1325 - didomi - > their own selves <1438 - heautou - > to the Lord <2962 - kurios - > ,  and unto us by the will <2307 - thelema - > of God <2316 - theos - > .

 : 6  Insomuch <1519 - eis - > that we desired <3870 - parakaleo - > Titus <5103 - Titos - > ,  that as he had begun <4278 - proenarchomai - > ,  so <3779 - houto - > he would also <2532 - kai - > finish <2005 - epiteleo - > in you the same <0846 - autos - > grace <5485 - charis - > also <2532 - kai - > .

 : 7 .  Therefore <0235 - alla - > ,  as ye abound <4052 - perisseuo - > in every <0376 - anaperos - >  [ thing ,  in ]  faith <4102 - pistis - > ,  and utterance <3056 - logos - > ,  and knowledge <1108 - gnosis - > ,  and  [ in ]  all <3956 - pas - > diligence <4710 - spoude - > ,  and  [ in ]  your <5209 - humas - > love <0026 - agape - > to us ,   [ see ]  that ye abound <4052 - perisseuo - > in this <5124 - touto - > grace <5485 - charis - > also <2532 - kai - > .

 : 8  I speak <3004 - lego - > not by commandment <2003 - epitage - > ,  but by occasion <1223 - dia - > of the forwardness <4710 - spoude - > of others <2087 - heteros - > ,  and to prove <1381 - dokimazo - > the sincerity <1103 - gnesios - > of your <5212 - humeteros - > love <0026 - agape - > .

 : 9  For ye know <1097 - ginosko - > the grace <5485 - charis - > of our Lord <2962 - kurios - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > ,  that ,  though he was rich <4145 - plousios - > ,  yet for your <5216 - humon - > sakes he became <4433 - ptocheuo - > poor <4433 - ptocheuo - > ,  that ye through his poverty <4432 - ptocheia - > might be rich <4147 - plouteo - > .

 : 10  And herein <5129 - toutoi - > I give <1325 - didomi - >  [ my ]  advice <1106 - gnome - > :  for this <5124 - touto - > is expedient <4851 - sumphero - > for you ,  who <3748 - hostis - > have begun <4278 - proenarchomai - > before <4278 - proenarchomai - > ,  not only <3440 - monon - > to do <4160 - poieo - > ,  but also <2532 - kai - > to be forward <2309 - thelo - > a year <4070 - perusi - > ago <0575 - apo - > .

 : 11  Now <3570 - nuni - > therefore <2532 - kai - > perform <2005 - epiteleo - > the doing <4160 - poieo - >  [ of it ]  ;  that as  [ there was ]  a readiness <4288 - prothumia - > to will <2309 - thelo - > ,  so <3779 - houto - >  [ there may be ]  a performance <2005 - epiteleo - > also <2532 - kai - > out of that which ye have <2192 - echo - > .

 : 12  For if there <1487 - ei - > be first <4295 - prokeimai - > a willing <4288 - prothumia - > mind <4288 - prothumia - > ,   [ it is ]  accepted <2144 - euprosdektos - > according <2526 - katholikos and 2526 katho - > to that a man <5100 - tis - > hath <2192 - echo - > ,   [ and ]  not according <2526 - katholikos and 2526 katho - > to that he hath <2192 - echo - > not .

 : 13  For  [ I mean ]  not that other <0243 - allos - > men be eased <0425 - anesis - > ,  and ye burdened <2347 - thlipsis - > :

 : 14  But by an equality <2471 - isotes - > ,   [ that ]  now <3568 - nun - > at <1722 - en - > this <3568 - nun - > time <2540 - kairos - > your <5216 - humon - > abundance <4051 - perisseuma - >  [ may be a supply ]  for their want <5303 - husterema - > ,  that their abundance <4051 - perisseuma - > also <2532 - kai - > may be  [ a supply ]  for your <5216 - humon - > want <5303 - husterema - > :  that there may be equality <2471 - isotes - > :

 : 15  As it is written <1125 - grapho - > ,  He that  [ had gathered ]  much <4183 - polus - > had nothing <3756 - ou - > over <4121 - pleonazo - > ;  and he that  [ had gathered ]  little <3641 - oligos - > had no <3756 - ou - > lack <1641 - elattoneo - > .

 : 16 .  But thanks <5485 - charis - >  [ be ]  to God <2316 - theos - > ,  which <3588 - ho - > put <1325 - didomi - > the same <0846 - autos - > earnest <4710 - spoude - > care <4710 - spoude - > into <1722 - en - > the heart <2588 - kardia - > of Titus <5103 - Titos - > for you .

 : 17  For indeed <3303 - men - > he accepted <1209 - dechomai - > the exhortation <3874 - paraklesis - > ;  but being <5225 - huparcho - > more <4707 - spoudaioteros - > forward <4707 - spoudaioteros - > ,  of his own <0830 - authairetos - > accord <0830 - authairetos - > he went <1831 - exerchomai - > unto you .

 : 18  And we have sent <4842 - sumpempo - > with him the brother <0080 - adephos - > ,  whose <3739 - hos - > praise <1868 - epainos - >  [ is ]  in the gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > throughout <1223 - dia - > all <3956 - pas - > the churches <1577 - ekklesia - > ;

 : 19  And not  [ that ]  only <3440 - monon - > ,  but who was also <2532 - kai - > chosen <5500 - cheirotoneo - > of the churches <1577 - ekklesia - > to travel <4898 - sunekdemos - > with us with this <5124 - touto - > grace <5485 - charis - > ,  which <3588 - ho - > is administered <1247 - diakoneo - > by us to the glory <1391 - doxa - > of the same <3778 - houtos - > Lord <2962 - kurios - > ,  and  [ declaration of ]  your <5216 - humon - > ready <4288 - prothumia - > mind <4288 - prothumia - > :

 : 20  Avoiding <4724 - stello - > this <5124 - touto - > ,  that no <3361 - me - > man <5100 - tis - > should blame <3469 - momaomai - > us in this <5026 - taute - > abundance <0100 - hadrotes - > which <3588 - ho - > is administered <1247 - diakoneo - > by us :

 : 21  Providing <4306 - pronoeo - > for honest <2570 - kalos - > things ,  not only <3440 - monon - > in the sight <1799 - enopion - > of the Lord <2962 - kurios - > ,  but also <2532 - kai - > in the sight <1799 - enopion - > of men <0444 - anthropos - > .

 : 22  And we have sent <4842 - sumpempo - > with them our brother <0080 - adephos - > ,  whom <3739 - hos - > we have oftentimes <4178 - pollakis - > proved <1381 - dokimazo - > diligent <4705 - spoudaios - > in many <4183 - polus - > things ,  but now <3570 - nuni - > much <4183 - polus - > more <4707 - spoudaioteros - > diligent <4707 - spoudaioteros - > ,  upon the great <4183 - polus - > confidence <4006 - pepoithesis - > which <3588 - ho - >  [ I have ]  in you .

 : 23  Whether <1535 - eite - >  [ any do enquire ]  of Titus <5103 - Titos - > ,   [ he is ]  my partner <2844 - koinonos - > and fellowhelper <4904 - sunergos - > concerning <1519 - eis - > you :  or <1535 - eite - > our brethren <0080 - adephos - >  [ be enquired of ,  they are ]  the messengers <0652 - apostolos - > of the churches <1577 - ekklesia - > ,   [ and ]  the glory <1391 - doxa - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 24  Wherefore <3767 - oun - > shew <1731 - endeiknumi - > ye to them ,  and before <4383 - prosopon - > the churches <1577 - ekklesia - > ,  the proof <1732 - endeixis - > of your <5216 - humon - > love <0026 - agape - > ,  and of our boasting <2746 - kauchesis - > on <5228 - huper - > your <5216 - humon - > behalf <5228 - huper - > .

 : 2Corinthians   9

 : 1 .  For as touching <4012 - peri - > the ministering <1248 - diakonia - > to the saints <0040 - hagios - > ,  it is superfluous <4053 - perissos - > for me to write <1125 - grapho - > to you :

 : 2  For I know <1492 - eido - > the forwardness <4288 - prothumia - > of your <5216 - humon - > mind <4288 - prothumia - > ,  for which <3739 - hos - > I boast <2744 - kauchaomai - > of you to them of Macedonia <3110 - Makedon - > ,  that Achaia <0882 - Achaia - > was ready <3903 - paraskeuazo - > a year <4070 - perusi - > ago <0575 - apo - > ;  and your <5216 - humon - > zeal <2205 - zelos - > hath provoked <2042 - erethizo - > very <4119 - pleion - > many <4119 - pleion - > .

 : 3  Yet <1161 - de - > have I sent <3992 - pempo - > the brethren <0080 - adephos - > ,  lest <3361 - me - > our boasting <2745 - kauchema - > of you should be in vain <2788 - kithara - > in this <5129 - toutoi - > behalf <3313 - meros - > ;  that ,  as I said <3004 - lego - > ,  ye may be ready <3903 - paraskeuazo - > :

 : 5  Therefore <3767 - oun - > I thought <2233 - hegeomai - > it necessary <0316 - anagkaios - > to exhort <3870 - parakaleo - > the brethren <0080 - adephos - > ,  that they would go <4281 - proerchomai - > before <4281 - proerchomai - > unto you ,  and make <4294 - prokatartizo - > up beforehand <4294 - prokatartizo - > your <5216 - humon - > bounty <2129 - eulogia - > ,  whereof ye had notice <4293 - prokataggello - > before <4293 - prokataggello - > ,  that the same <5026 - taute - > might be ready <2092 - hetoimos - > ,  as  [ a matter of ]  bounty <2129 - eulogia - > ,  and not as  [ of ]  covetousness <4124 - pleonexia - > .

 : 8  For though <1437 - ean - > I should boast <2744 - kauchaomai - > somewhat <5100 - tis - > more <4055 - perissoteros - > of our authority <1849 - exousia - > ,  which <3739 - hos - > the Lord <2962 - kurios - > hath given <1325 - didomi - > us for edification <3619 - oikodome - > ,  and not for your <5216 - humon - > destruction <2506 - kathairesis - > ,  I should not be ashamed <0153 - aischunomai - > :

 : 9  That I may not seem <1380 - dokeo - > as if I would terrify <1629 - ekphobeo - > you by letters <1992 - epistole - > .

 : 10  For  [ his ]  letters <1992 - epistole - > ,  say <5346 - phemi - > they ,   [ are ]  weighty <0926 - barus - > and powerful <2478 - ischuros - > ;  but  [ his ]  bodily <4983 - soma - > presence <3952 - parousia - >  [ is ]  weak <0770 - astheneo - > ,  and  [ his ]  speech <3056 - logos - > contemptible <1848 - exoutheneo - > .

 : 11  Let such <3634 - hoios - > an one think <3049 - logizomai - > this <5124 - touto - > ,  that ,  such <5108 - toioutos - > as we are in word <3056 - logos - > by letters <1992 - epistole - > when we are absent <0548 - apeimi - > ,  such <5108 - toioutos - >  [ will we be ]  also <2532 - kai - > in deed <2041 - ergon - > when we are present <3918 - pareimi - > .

 : 12 .  For we dare <5111 - tolmao - > not make ourselves <1438 - heautou - > of the number <1469 - egkrino - > ,  or <2228 - e - > compare <4793 - sugkrino - > ourselves <1438 - heautou - > with some <5100 - tis - > that commend <4921 - sunistao - > themselves <1438 - heautou - > :  but they measuring <3354 - metreo - > themselves <1438 - heautou - > by themselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  and comparing <4793 - sugkrino - > themselves <1438 - heautou - > among themselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  are not wise <4920 - suniemi - > .

 : 13  But we will not boast <2744 - kauchaomai - > of things without <0280 - ametros - >  [ our ]  measure <0280 - ametros - > ,  but according <2596 - kata - > to the measure <3358 - metron - > of the rule <2583 - kanon - > which <3739 - hos - > God <2316 - theos - > hath distributed <3307 - merizo - > to us ,  a measure <3358 - metron - > to reach <2185 - ephikneomai - > even <2532 - kai - > unto you .

 : 14  For we stretch <5239 - huperekteino - > not ourselves <1438 - heautou - > beyond <5239 - huperekteino - >  [ our measure ]  ,  as though we reached <2185 - ephikneomai - > not unto you :  for we are come <5348 - phthano - > as far <0891 - achri - > as to you also <2532 - kai - > in  [ preaching ]  the gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > :

 : 15  Not boasting <2744 - kauchaomai - > of things without <0280 - ametros - >  [ our ]  measure <0280 - ametros - > ,   [ that is ]  ,  of other <0245 - allotrios - > men s labours <2873 - kopos - > ;  but having <2192 - echo - > hope <1680 - elpis - > ,  when your <5216 - humon - > faith <4102 - pistis - > is increased <0837 - auzano - > ,  that we shall be enlarged <3170 - megaluno - > by you according <2596 - kata - > to our rule <2583 - kanon - > abundantly <4050 - perisseia - > ,

 : 16  To preach <2097 - euaggelizo - > the gospel <2097 - euaggelizo - > in the  [ regions ]  beyond <5238 - huperekeina - > you ,   [ and ]  not to boast <2744 - kauchaomai - > in another <0245 - allotrios - > man s <0245 - allotrios - > line <2583 - kanon - > of things made <2092 - hetoimos - > ready <2092 - hetoimos - > to our hand .

 : 17  But he that glorieth <2744 - kauchaomai - > ,  let him glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > in the Lord <2962 - kurios - > .

 : 18  For not he that commendeth <4921 - sunistao - > himself <1438 - heautou - > is approved <1384 - dokimos - > ,  but whom <3739 - hos - > the Lord <2962 - kurios - > commendeth <4921 - sunistao - > .

 : 1 .  Would <3785 - ophelon - > to God ye could bear <0430 - anechomai - > with me a little <3397 - mikron - > in  [ my ]  folly <0877 - aphrosune - > :  and indeed <0235 - alla - > bear <0430 - anechomai - > with me .

 : 2  For I am jealous <2206 - zeloo - > over you with godly <2316 - theos - > jealousy <2205 - zelos - > :  for I have espoused <0718 - harmozo - > you to one <1520 - heis - > husband <0435 - aner - > ,  that I may present <3936 - paristemi - >  [ you as ]  a chaste <0053 - hagnos - > virgin <3933 - parthenos - > to Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 3  But I fear <5399 - phobeo - > ,  lest <3381 - mepos - > by any <3381 - mepos - > means <4458 -  - pos - > ,  as the serpent <3789 - ophis - > beguiled <1818 - exapatao - > Eve <2096 - Eua - > through <1722 - en - > his subtilty <3834 - panourgia - > ,  so <3779 - houto - > your <5216 - humon - > minds <3540 - noema - > should be corrupted <5351 - phtheiro - > from the simplicity <0572 - haplotes - > that is in Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

 : 4  For if <1487 - ei - > he that cometh <2064 - erchomai - > preacheth <2784 - kerusso - > another <0243 - allos - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > ,  whom <3739 - hos - > we have not preached <2784 - kerusso - > ,  or <2228 - e - >  [ if ]  ye receive <2983 - lambano - > another <2087 - heteros - > spirit <4151 - pneuma - > ,  which <3739 - hos - > ye have not received <2983 - lambano - > ,  or <2228 - e - > another <2087 - heteros - > gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > ,  which ye have not accepted <1209 - dechomai - > ,  ye might well <2573 - kalos - > bear <0430 - anechomai - > with  [ him ]  .

 : 5 .  For I suppose <3049 - logizomai - > I was not a whit <3367 - medeis - > behind <5302 - hustereo - > the very <5228 - huper - > chiefest <3029 - lian - > apostles <0652 - apostolos - > .

 : 6  But though <1499 - ei kai - >  [ I be ]  rude <2399 - idiotes - > in speech <3056 - logos - > ,  yet <0235 - alla - > not in knowledge <1108 - gnosis - > ;  but we have been throughly <3956 - pas - > made <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > among <1519 - eis - > you in all <3956 - pas - > things .

 : 7  Have I committed <4160 - poieo - > an offence <0266 - hamartia - > in abasing <5013 - tapeinoo - > myself <1683 - emautou - > that ye might be exalted <5312 - hupsoo - > ,  because <3754 - hoti - > I have preached <2097 - euaggelizo - > to you the gospel <2098 - euaggelion - > of God <2316 - theos - > freely <1432 - dorean - > ?

 : 8  I robbed <4813 - sulao - > other <0243 - allos - > churches <1577 - ekklesia - > ,  taking <2983 - lambano - > wages <3800 - opsonion - >  [ of them ]  ,  to do you service <1248 - diakonia - > .

 : 9  And when I was present <3918 - pareimi - > with you ,  and wanted <5302 - hustereo - > ,  I was chargeable <2655 - katanarkao - > to no <3762 - oudeis - > man <3762 - oudeis - > :  for that which was lacking <5303 - husterema - > to me the brethren <0080 - adephos - > which came <2064 - erchomai - > from Macedonia <3109 - Makedonia - > supplied <4322 - prosanapleroo - > :  and in all <3956 - pas - >  [ things ]  I have kept <5083 - tereo - > myself <1683 - emautou - > from being burdensome <0004 - abares - > unto you ,  and  [ so ]  will I keep <5083 - tereo - >  [ myself <1683 - emautou - > ]  .

 : 10  As the truth <0225 - aletheia - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > is in me ,  no <3762 - oudeis - > man shall stop <5420 - phrasso - > me of this <3778 - houtos - > boasting <2746 - kauchesis - > in the regions <2825 - kline - > of Achaia <0882 - Achaia - > .

 : 11  Wherefore <1302 - diati - > ?  because <3754 - hoti - > I love <0025 - agapao - > you not ?  God <2316 - theos - > knoweth <1492 - eido - > .

 : 12  But what <3739 - hos - > I do <4160 - poieo - > ,  that I will do <4160 - poieo - > ,  that I may cut <1581 - ekkopto - > off <1581 - ekkopto - > occasion <0874 - aphorme - > from them which desire <2309 - thelo - > occasion <0874 - aphorme - > ;  that wherein <3757 - hou - > they glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > ,  they may be found <2147 - heurisko - > even <2532 - kai - > as we .

 : 16 .  I say <3004 - lego - > again <3825 - palin - > ,  Let no <3367 - medeis - > man <5100 - tis - > think <1380 - dokeo - > me a fool <0878 - aphron - > ;  if <1490 - ei de me ( ge )  - > otherwise <1490 - ei de me ( ge )  - > ,  yet <2579 - kan - > as a fool <0878 - aphron - > receive <1209 - dechomai - > me ,  that I may boast <2744 - kauchaomai - > myself a little <3397 - mikron - > .

 : 1 .  It is not expedient <4851 - sumphero - > for me doubtless <1211 - de - > to glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > .  I will come <2064 - erchomai - > to visions <3701 - optasia - > and revelations <0602 - apokalupsis - > of the Lord <2962 - kurios - > .

 : 2  I knew <1492 - eido - > a man <0444 - anthropos - > in Christ <5547 - Christos - > above <4253 - pro - > fourteen <1180 - dekatessares - > years <2094 - etos - > ago <4253 - pro - > ,   ( whether in the body <4983 - soma - > ,  I cannot <1492 - eido - > tell <1492 - eido - > ;  or <1535 - eite - > whether <1535 - eite - > out of the body <4983 - soma - > ,  I cannot <1492 - eido - > tell <1492 - eido - > :  God <2316 - theos - > knoweth <1492 - eido - > ;  )  such <5108 - toioutos - > an one caught <0726 - harpazo - > up to the third <5154 - tritos - > heaven <3772 - ouranos - > .

 : 6  For though <1437 - ean - > I would desire <2309 - thelo - > to glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > ,  I shall not be a fool <0878 - aphron - > ;  for I will say <2046 - ereo - > the truth <0225 - aletheia - > :  but  [ now ]  I forbear <5339 - pheidomai - > ,  lest <3361 - me - > any <5100 - tis - > man should think <3049 - logizomai - > of me above <5228 - huper - > that which <3739 - hos - > he seeth <0991 - blepo - > me  [ to be ]  ,  or <2228 - e - >  [ that ]  he heareth <0191 - akouo - > of me .

 : 8  For this <5127 - toutou - > thing I besought <3870 - parakaleo - > the Lord <2962 - kurios - > thrice <5151 - tris - > ,  that it might depart <0868 - aphistemi - > from me .

 : 9  And he said <2046 - ereo - > unto me ,  My grace <5485 - charis - > is sufficient <0714 - arkeo - > for thee :  for my strength <1411 - dunamis - > is made <5048 - teleioo - > perfect <5048 - teleioo - > in weakness <0769 - astheneia - > .  Most <2236 - hedista - > gladly <2236 - hedista - > therefore <3767 - oun - > will I rather <3123 - mallon - > glory <2744 - kauchaomai - > in my infirmities <0769 - astheneia - > ,  that the power <1411 - dunamis - > of Christ <5547 - Christos - > may rest <1981 - episkenoo - > upon me .

 : 11 .  I am become <1096 - ginomai - > a fool <0878 - aphron - > in glorying <2744 - kauchaomai - > ;  ye have compelled <0315 - anagkazo - > me :  for I ought <3784 - opheilo - > to have been commended <4921 - sunistao - > of you :  for in nothing <3762 - oudeis - > am I behind <5302 - hustereo - > the very <3029 - lian - > chiefest <3029 - lian - > apostles <0652 - apostolos - > ,  though <1499 - ei kai - > I be nothing <3762 - oudeis - > .

 : 13  For what <5101 - tis - > is it wherein <3757 - hou - > ye were inferior <2274 - hettao - > to other <3062 - loipoy - > churches <1577 - ekklesia - > ,  except <1508 - ei me - >  [ it be ]  that I myself was not burdensome <2655 - katanarkao - > to you ?  forgive <5483 - charizomai - > me this <5026 - taute - > wrong <0093 - adikia - > .

 : 14  Behold <2400 - idou - > ,  the third <5154 - tritos - > time I am ready <2093 - hetoimos - > to come <2064 - erchomai - > to you ;  and I will not be burdensome <2655 - katanarkao - > to you :  for I seek <2212 - zeteo - > not yours <5216 - humon - > ,  but you :  for the children <5043 - teknon - > ought <3784 - opheilo - > not to lay <2343 - thesaurizo - > up for the parents <1118 - goneus - > ,  but the parents <1118 - goneus - > for the children <5043 - teknon - > .

 : 15  And I will very <2236 - hedista - > gladly <2236 - hedista - > spend <1159 - dapanao - > and be spent <1550 - ekdapanao - > for you ;  though <1499 - ei kai - > the more <4056 - perissoteros - > abundantly <4056 - perissoteros - > I love <0025 - agapao - > you ,  the less <2276 - hetton - > I be loved <0025 - agapao - > .

 : 16  But be it so ,  I did not burden <2599 - katabareo - > you :  nevertheless <0235 - alla - > ,  being <5225 - huparcho - > crafty <3835 - panougos - > ,  I caught <2983 - lambano - > you with guile <1388 - dolos - > .

 : 1 .  This <5124 - touto - >  [ is ]  the third <5154 - tritos - >  [ time ]  I am coming <2064 - erchomai - > to you .  In the mouth <4750 - stoma - > of two <1417 - duo - > or <2532 - kai - > three <5140 - treis - > witnesses <3144 - martus - > shall every <3956 - pas - > word <4487 - rhema - > be established <2476 - histemi - > .

 : 4  For though <1487 - ei - > he was crucified <4717 - stauroo - > through <1537 - ek - > weakness <0769 - astheneia - > ,  yet <0235 - alla - > he liveth <2198 - zao - > by the power <1411 - dunamis - > of God <2316 - theos - > .  For we also <2532 - kai - > are weak <0770 - astheneo - > in him ,  but we shall live <2198 - zao - > with him by the power <1411 - dunamis - > of God <2316 - theos - > toward <1519 - eis - > you .

 : 5  Examine <3985 - peirazo - > yourselves <1438 - heautou - > ,  whether <1487 - ei - > ye be in the faith <4102 - pistis - > ;  prove <1381 - dokimazo - > your <1438 - heautou - > own selves <1438 - heautou - > .  Know <1921 - epiginosko - > ye not your <1438 - heautou - > own selves <1438 - heautou - > ,  how that Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > is in you ,  except <1509 - ei me ti - > ye be reprobates <0096 - adokimos - > ?

 : 6  But I trust <1679 - elpizo - > that ye shall know <1097 - ginosko - > that we are not reprobates <0096 - adokimos - > .

 : 7 .  Now <1161 - de - > I pray <2172 - euchomai - > to God <2316 - theos - > that ye do <4160 - poieo - > no <3367 - medeis - > evil <2556 - kakos - > ;  not that we should appear <5316 - phaino - > approved <1384 - dokimos - > ,  but that ye should do <4160 - poieo - > that which is honest <2570 - kalos - > ,  though we be as reprobates <0096 - adokimos - > .

 : 8  For we can <1410 - dunamai - > do nothing <5100 - tis - > against <2596 - kata - > the truth <0225 - aletheia - > ,  but for the truth <0225 - aletheia - > .

 : 10  Therefore <5124 - touto - > I write <1125 - grapho - > these <5023 - tauta - > things being absent <0548 - apeimi - > ,  lest <3361 - me - > being present <3918 - pareimi - > I should use <5530 - chraomai - > sharpness <0664 - apotomos - > ,  according <2596 - kata - > to the power <1849 - exousia - > which <3739 - hos - > the Lord <2962 - kurios - > hath given <1325 - didomi - > me to edification <3619 - oikodome - > ,  and not to destruction <2506 - kathairesis - > .
