: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->.

:16 Nevertheless <1161-de-> when <2259-henika-> it shall turn <1994-epistrepho-> to the Lord <2962-kurios->, the vail <2571-kaluma-> shall be taken <4014-periaireo-> away <4014-periaireo->.

:17 Now <1161-de-> the Lord <2962-kurios-> is that Spirit <4151-pneuma->: and where <3757-hou-> the Spirit <4151-pneuma-> of the Lord <2962-kurios-> [is], there <1563-ekei-> [is] liberty <1657-eleutheria->.

:18 But we all <3956-pas->, with open <0343-anakalupto-> face <4383-prosopon-> beholding <2734-katoptrizomai-> as in a glass <2734-katoptrizomai-> the glory <1391-doxa-> of the Lord <2962-kurios->, are changed <3339-metamorphoo-> into the same <0846-autos-> image <1504-eikon-> from glory <1391-doxa-> to glory <1391-doxa->, [even] as by the Spirit <4151-pneuma-> of the Lord <2962-kurios->.

:2Corinthians 4

:1. Therefore <5124-touto-> seeing we have <2192-echo-> this <5026-taute-> ministry <1248-diakonia->, as we have received <1653-eleeo-> mercy <1653-eleeo->, we faint <1573-ekkakeo-> not;

:2 But have renounced <0550-apeipomen-> the hidden <2927-kruptos-> things of dishonesty <0152-aischune->, not walking <4043-peripateo-> in craftiness <3834-panourgia->, nor <3366-mede-> handling <1389-doloo-> the word <3056-logos-> of God <2316-theos-> deceitfully <1389-doloo->; but by manifestation <5321-phanerosis-> of the truth <0225-aletheia-> commending <4921-sunistao-> ourselves <1438-heautou-> to every <3956-pas-> man's <0444-anthropos-> conscience <4893-suneidesis-> in the sight <1799-enopion-> of God <2316-theos->.

: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->:

:4 In whom <3739-hos-> the god <2316-theos-> of this <5127-toutou-> world <0165-aion-> hath blinded <5186-tuphloo-> the minds <3540-noema-> of them which believe <0571-apistos-> not, lest <3361-me-> the light <5462-photismos-> of the glorious <1391-doxa-> gospel <2098-euaggelion-> of Christ <5547-Christos->, who <3739-hos-> is the image <1504-eikon-> of God <2316-theos->, should shine <0826-augazo-> unto them.

:5 For we preach <2784-kerusso-> not ourselves <1438-heautou->, but Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> the Lord <2962-kurios->; and ourselves <1438-heautou-> your <5216-humon-> servants <1401-doulos-> for Jesus <2424-Iesous->' sake.

:6 For God <2316-theos->, who <3588-ho-> commanded <2036-epo-> the light <5457-phos-> to shine <2989-lampo-> out of darkness <4655-skotos->, hath shined <2989-lampo-> in our hearts <2588-kardia->, to [give] the light <5462-photismos-> of the knowledge <1108-gnosis-> of the glory <1391-doxa-> of God <2316-theos-> in the face <4383-prosopon-> of Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->.

:7 But we have <2192-echo-> this <5126-touton-> treasure <2344-thesauros-> in earthen <3749-ostrakinos-> vessels <4632-skeuos->, that the excellency <5236-huperbole-> of the power <1411-dunamis-> may be of God <2316-theos->, and not of us.

: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->;

:9 Persecuted <1377-dioko->, but not forsaken <1459-egkataleipo->; cast <2598-kataballo-> down <2598-kataballo->, but not destroyed <0622-apollumi->;

:10 Always <3842-pantote-> bearing <4064-periphero-> about <4064-periphero-> in the body <4983-soma-> the dying <3500-nekrosis-> of the Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous->, that the life <2222-zoe-> also <2532-kai-> of Jesus <2424-Iesous-> might be made <5319-phaneroo-> manifest <5319-phaneroo-> in our body <4983-soma->.

: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.

:13 We having <2192-echo-> the same <0846-autos-> spirit <4151-pneuma-> of faith <4102-pistis->, according <2596-kata-> as it is written <1125-grapho->, I believed <4100-pisteuo->, and therefore <1352-dio-> have I spoken <2980-laleo->; we also <2532-kai-> believe <4100-pisteuo->, and therefore <1352-dio-> speak <2980-laleo->;

:14 Knowing <1492-eido-> that he which raised <1453-egeiro-> up the Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> shall raise <1453-egeiro-> up us also <2532-kai-> by Jesus <2424-Iesous->, and shall present <3936-paristemi-> [us] with you.

:15 For all <3956-pas-> things [are] for your <5209-humas-> sakes, that the abundant <4121-pleonazo-> grace <5485-charis-> might through <1223-dia-> the thanksgiving <2169-eucharistia-> of many <4119-pleion-> redound <4052-perisseuo-> to the glory <1391-doxa-> of God <2316-theos->.

: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->;

:18 While we look <4648-skopeo-> not at <4648-skopeo-> the things which are seen <0991-blepo->, but at <4648-skopeo-> the things which are not seen <0991-blepo->: for the things which are seen <0991-blepo-> [are] temporal <4340-proskairos->; but the things which are not seen <0991-blepo-> [are] eternal <0166-aionios->.

: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.

:1. We then <3767-oun->, [as] workers <4903-sunergeo-> together <4903-sunergeo-> [with him], beseech <3870-parakaleo-> [you] also <2532-kai-> that ye receive <1209-dechomai-> not the grace <5485-charis-> of God <2316-theos-> in vain <2756-kenos->.

:2 (For he saith <3004-lego->, I have heard <1873-epakouo-> thee in a time <2540-kairos-> accepted <1184-dektos->, and in the day <2250-hemera-> of salvation <4991-soteria-> have I succoured <0997-boetheo-> thee: behold <2400-idou->, now <3568-nun-> [is] the accepted <2144-euprosdektos-> time <2540-kairos->; behold <2400-idou->, now <3568-nun-> [is] the day <2250-hemera-> of salvation <4991-soteria->.)

:3 Giving <1325-didomi-> no <3367-medeis-> offence <4349-proskope-> in any <3367-medeis-> thing, that the ministry <1248-diakonia-> be not blamed <3469-momaomai->:

:5 In stripes <4127-plege->, in imprisonments <5438-phulake->, in tumults <0181-akatastasia->, in labours <2873-kopos->, in watchings <0070-agrupnia->, in fastings <3521-nesteia->;

:6 By pureness <0054-hagnotes->, by knowledge <1108-gnosis->, by longsuffering <3115-makrothumia->, by kindness <5544-chrestotes->, by the Holy <0040-hagios-> Ghost <4151-pneuma->, by love <0026-agape-> unfeigned <0505-anupokritos->,

:7 By the word <3056-logos-> of truth <0225-aletheia->, by the power <1411-dunamis-> of God <2316-theos->, by the armour <3696-hoplon-> of righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> on the right <1188-dexios-> hand and on the left <0710-aristeros->,

: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->.

: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->.

: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->:

:4 Lest <3381-mepos-> haply <3381-mepos-> if <1437-ean-> they of Macedonia <3110-Makedon-> come <2064-erchomai-> with me, and find <2147-heurisko-> you unprepared <0532-aparaskeuastos->, we (that we say <3004-lego-> not, ye) should be ashamed <2617-kataischuno-> in this <3588-ho-> same <5026-taute-> confident <5287-hupostasis-> boasting <2746-kauchesis->.

: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->.

:6. But this <5124-touto-> [I say], He which soweth <4687-speiro-> sparingly <5340-pheidomenos-> shall reap <2325-therizo-> also <2532-kai-> sparingly <5340-pheidomenos->; and he which soweth <4687-speiro-> bountifully <2129-eulogia-> shall reap <2325-therizo-> also <2532-kai-> bountifully <2129-eulogia->.

:7 Every <1538-hekastos-> man according <2531-kathos-> as he purposeth <4255-proaireomai-> in his heart <2588-kardia->, [so let him give]; not grudgingly <3077-lupe->, or <2228-e-> of necessity <0318-anagke->: for God <2316-theos-> loveth <0025-agapao-> a cheerful <2431-hilaros-> giver <1395-dotes->.

:8 And God <2316-theos-> [is] able <1415-dunatos-> to make <4052-perisseuo-> all <3956-pas-> grace <5485-charis-> abound <4052-perisseuo-> toward <1519-eis-> you; that ye, always <3842-pantote-> having <2192-echo-> all <3956-pas-> sufficiency <0841-autarkeia-> in all <3956-pas-> [things], may abound <4052-perisseuo-> to every <3956-pas-> good <0018-agathos-> work <2041-ergon->:

:9 (As it is written <1125-grapho->, He hath dispersed <4650-skorpizo-> abroad <4650-skorpizo->; he hath given <1325-didomi-> to the poor <3993-penes->: his righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> remaineth <3306-meno-> for ever <0165-aion->.

:10 Now <1161-de-> he that ministereth <2023-epichoregeo-> seed <4690-sperma-> to the sower <4687-speiro-> both <2532-kai-> minister <5524-choregeo-> bread <0740-artos-> for [your] food <1035-brosis->, and multiply <4129-plethuno-> your <5216-humon-> seed <4703-sporos-> sown, and increase <0837-auzano-> the fruits <1081-gennema-> of your <5216-humon-> righteousness <1343-dikaiosune->;)

:11 Being enriched <4148-ploutizo-> in every <3956-pas-> thing to all <3956-pas-> bountifulness <0572-haplotes->, which <3748-hostis-> causeth <2716-katergazomai-> through <1223-dia-> us thanksgiving <2169-eucharistia-> to God <2316-theos->.

:12 For the administration <1248-diakonia-> of this <5026-taute-> service <3009-leitourgia-> not only <3440-monon-> supplieth <4322-prosanapleroo-> the want <5303-husterema-> of the saints <0040-hagios->, but is abundant <4052-perisseuo-> also <2532-kai-> by many <4183-polus-> thanksgivings <2169-eucharistia-> unto God <2316-theos->;

:13 Whiles by the experiment <1382-dokime-> of this <5026-taute-> ministration <1248-diakonia-> they glorify <1392-doxazo-> God <2316-theos-> for your <5216-humon-> professed <3671-homologia-> subjection <5292-hupotage-> unto the gospel <2098-euaggelion-> of Christ <5547-Christos->, and for [your <3588-ho->] liberal <0572-haplotes-> distribution <2842-koinonia-> unto them, and unto all <3956-pas-> [men];

:14 And by their prayer <1162-deesis-> for you, which long <1971-epipotheo-> after <1971-epipotheo-> you for the exceeding <5235-huperballo-> grace <5485-charis-> of God <2316-theos-> in you.

:2Corinthians 10

:1. Now <1161-de-> I Paul <3972-Paulos-> myself beseech <3870-parakaleo-> you by the meekness <4236-praiotes-> and gentleness <1932-epieikeia-> of Christ <5547-Christos->, who <3739-hos-> in presence <4383-prosopon-> [am] base <5011-tapeinos-> among <1722-en-> you, but being absent <0548-apeimi-> am bold <2292-tharrheo-> toward <1519-eis-> you:

:2 But I beseech <1189-deomai-> [you], that I may not be bold <2292-tharrheo-> when I am present <3918-pareimi-> with that confidence <4006-pepoithesis->, wherewith <3739-hos-> I think <3049-logizomai-> to be bold <5111-tolmao-> against <1909-epi-> some <5100-tis->, which <3588-ho-> think <3049-logizomai-> of us as if we walked <4043-peripateo-> according <2596-kata-> to the flesh <4561-sarx->.

:3 For though we walk <4043-peripateo-> in the flesh <4561-sarx->, we do not war <4754-strateuomai-> after <2596-kata-> the flesh <4561-sarx->:

:4 (For the weapons <3696-hoplon-> of our warfare <4752-strateia-> [are] not carnal <4559-sarkikos->, but mighty <1415-dunatos-> through God <2316-theos-> to the pulling <2506-kathairesis-> down <2506-kathairesis-> of strong <3794-ochuroma-> holds <3794-ochuroma->;)

:5 Casting <2507-kathaireo-> down <2504-kago-> imaginations <3053-logismos->, and every <3956-pas-> high <5313-hupsoma-> thing <5313-hupsoma-> that exalteth <1869-epairo-> itself against <2596-kata-> the knowledge <1108-gnosis-> of God <2316-theos->, and bringing <0163-aichmalotizo-> into captivity <0163-aichmalotizo-> every <3956-pas-> thought <3540-noema-> to the obedience <5218-hupakoe-> of Christ <5547-Christos->;

:6 And having <2192-echo-> in a readiness <2092-hetoimos-> to revenge <1556-ekdikeo-> all <3956-pas-> disobedience <3876-parakoe->, when <3752-hotan-> your <5216-humon-> obedience <5218-hupakoe-> is fulfilled <4137-pleroo->.

:7. Do ye look <0991-blepo-> on <0991-blepo-> things after <2596-kata-> the outward <4383-prosopon-> appearance <4383-prosopon->? If <1487-ei-> any <5100-tis-> man trust <3982-peitho-> to himself <1438-heautou-> that he is Christ's <5547-Christos->, let him of himself <1438-heautou-> think <3049-logizomai-> this <5124-touto-> again <3825-palin->, that, as he [is] Christ's <5547-Christos->, even <2532-kai-> so <3779-houto-> [are] we Christ's <5547-Christos->.

: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.

:13 For such <5108-toioutos-> [are] false <5570-pseudapostolos-> apostles <5570-pseudapostolos->, deceitful <1386-dolios-> workers <2040-ergates->, transforming <3345-metaschematizo-> themselves into <1519-eis-> the apostles <0652-apostolos-> of Christ <5547-Christos->.

:14 And no <3756-ou-> marvel <2298-thaumastos->; for Satan <4567-Satanas-> himself <0846-autos-> is transformed <3345-metaschematizo-> into <1519-eis-> an angel <0032-aggelos-> of light <5457-phos->.

:15 Therefore <3767-oun-> [it is] no <3756-ou-> great <3173-megas-> thing if <1499-ei kai-> his ministers <1249-diakonos-> also <2532-kai-> be transformed <3345-metaschematizo-> as the ministers <1249-diakonos-> of righteousness <1343-dikaiosune->; whose <3739-hos-> end <5056-telos-> shall be according <2596-kata-> to their works <2041-ergon->.

: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->.

:17 That which <3739-hos-> I speak <2980-laleo->, I speak <2980-laleo-> [it] not after <2596-kata-> the Lord <2962-kurios->, but as it were foolishly <0877-aphrosune->, in this <5026-taute-> confidence <5287-hupostasis-> of boasting <2746-kauchesis->.

:18 Seeing <1893-epei-> that many <4183-polus-> glory <2744-kauchaomai-> after <2596-kata-> the flesh <4561-sarx->, I will glory <2744-kauchaomai-> also <2504-kago->.

:19 For ye suffer <0430-anechomai-> fools <0878-aphron-> gladly <2234-hedeos->, seeing ye [yourselves] are wise <5429-phronimos->.

:20 For ye suffer <0430-anechomai->, if <1487-ei-> a man <5100-tis-> bring <2615-katadouloo-> you into bondage <2615-katadouloo->, if <1487-ei-> a man <5100-tis-> devour <2719-katesthio-> [you], if <1487-ei-> a man <5100-tis-> take <2983-lambano-> [of you], if <1487-ei-> a man <5100-tis-> exalt <1869-epairo-> himself, if <1487-ei-> a man <5100-tis-> smite <1194-dero-> you on <1519-eis-> the face <4383-prosopon->.

:21 I speak <3004-lego-> as concerning <2596-kata-> reproach <0819-atimia->, as though <3754-hoti-> we had been weak <0770-astheneo->. Howbeit whereinsoever <0302-an-> any <5100-tis-> is bold <5111-tolmao->, (I speak <3004-lego-> foolishly <0877-aphrosune->,) I am bold <5111-tolmao-> also <2504-kago->.

:22. Are they Hebrews <1445-Hebraios->? so <2504-kago-> [am] I. Are they Israelites <2475-Israelites->? so <2504-kago-> [am] I. Are they the seed <4690-sperma-> of Abraham <11>? so <2504-kago-> [am] I.

:23 Are they ministers <1249-diakonos-> of Christ <5547-Christos->? (I speak <2980-laleo-> as a fool <3912-paraphroneo->) I [am] more <5228-huper->; in labours <2873-kopos-> more <4056-perissoteros-> abundant <4056-perissoteros->, in stripes <4127-plege-> above <5234-huperballontos-> measure <5234-huperballontos->, in prisons <5438-phulake-> more <4056-perissoteros-> frequent <4056-perissoteros->, in deaths <2288-thanatos-> oft <4178-pollakis->.

:24 Of the Jews <2453-Ioudaios-> five <3999-pentakis-> times <3999-pentakis-> received <2983-lambano-> I forty <5062-tessarakonta-> [stripes] save <3844-para-> one <3391-mia->.

:25 Thrice <5151-tris-> was I beaten <4463-rhabdizo-> with rods <4463-rhabdizo->, once <0530-hapax-> was I stoned <3034-lithazo->, thrice <5151-tris-> I suffered shipwreck <3489-nauageo->, a night <3574-nuchthemeron-> and a day <3574-nuchthemeron-> I have been <4160-poieo-> in the deep <1037-buthos->;

:27 In weariness <2873-kopos-> and painfulness <3449-mochthos->, in watchings <0070-agrupnia-> often <4178-pollakis->, in hunger <3042-limos-> and thirst <1373-dipsos->, in fastings <3521-nesteia-> often <4178-pollakis->, in cold <5592-psuchos-> and nakedness <1132-gumnotes->.

:28 Beside <5565-choris-> those <3588-ho-> things that are without <3924-parektos->, that which <3588-ho-> cometh <1999-episustasis-> upon me daily <2250-hemera->, the care <3308-merimna-> of all <3956-pas-> the churches <1577-ekklesia->.

:29 Who <5101-tis-> is weak <0770-astheneo->, and I am not weak <0770-astheneo->? who <5101-tis-> is offended <4624-skandalizo->, and I burn <4448-puroo-> not?

:32 In Damascus <1154-Damaskos-> the governor <1481-ethnarches-> under Aretas <0702-Aretas-> the king <0935-basileus-> kept <5432-phroureo-> the city <4172-polis-> of the Damascenes <1153-Damaskenos-> with a garrison <5432-phroureo->, desirous <2309-thelo-> to apprehend <4084-piazo-> me:

: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->.

:5 Of such <5108-toioutos-> an one will I glory <2744-kauchaomai->: yet <1161-de-> of myself <1683-emautou-> I will not glory <2744-kauchaomai->, but in mine <3450-mou-> infirmities <0769-astheneia->.

: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.

:7 And lest <3361-me-> I should be exalted <5229-huperairomai-> above measure through the abundance <5236-huperbole-> of the revelations <0602-apokalupsis->, there was given <1325-didomi-> to me a thorn <4647-skolops-> in the flesh <4561-sarx->, the messenger <0032-aggelos-> of Satan <4567-Satanas-> to buffet <2852-kolaphizo-> me, lest <3361-me-> I should be exalted <5229-huperairomai-> above measure.

: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->.

:10 Therefore <1352-dio-> I take pleasure <2106-eudokeo-> in infirmities <0769-astheneia->, in reproaches <5196-hubris->, in necessities <0318-anagke->, in persecutions <1375-diogmos->, in distresses <4730-stenochoria-> for Christ's <5547-Christos-> sake: for when <3752-hotan-> I am <1510-eimi-> weak <0770-astheneo->, then <2532-kai-> am <1510-eimi-> I strong <1415-dunatos->.

:12 Truly <3303-men-> the signs <4591-semaino-> of an apostle <0652-apostolos-> were wrought <2716-katergazomai-> among <1722-en-> you in all <3956-pas-> patience <5281-hupomone->, in signs <4591-semaino->, and wonders <5059-teras->, and mighty <1411-dunamis-> deeds <1411-dunamis->.

: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->.

:17 Did I make <4122-pleonekteo-> a gain <4122-pleonekteo-> of you by any <5100-tis-> of them whom <3739-hos-> I sent <0649-apostello-> unto you?

:18 I desired <3870-parakaleo-> Titus <5103-Titos->, and with [him] I sent <4882-sunapostello-> a brother <0080-adephos->. Did Titus <5103-Titos-> make <4122-pleonekteo-> a gain <4122-pleonekteo-> of you? walked <4043-peripateo-> we not in the same <0846-autos-> spirit <4151-pneuma->? [walked <4043-peripateo-> we] not in the same <0846-autos-> steps <2487-ichnos->?

:19 Again <3825-palin->, think <1380-dokeo-> ye that we excuse <0626-apologeomai-> ourselves unto you? we speak <2980-laleo-> before <2714-katenopion-> God <2316-theos-> in Christ <5547-Christos->: but [we do] all <3956-pas-> things, dearly beloved <0027-agapetos->, for your <5216-humon-> edifying <3619-oikodome->.

:20 For I fear <5399-phobeo->, lest <3381-mepos->, when I come <2064-erchomai->, I shall not find <2147-heurisko-> you such <3634-hoios-> as I would <2309-thelo->, and [that] I shall be found <2147-heurisko-> unto you such <3634-hoios-> as ye would <2309-thelo-> not: lest <3381-mepos-> [there be] debates <2054-eris->, envyings <2205-zelos->, wraths <2372-thumos->, strifes <2052-eritheia->, backbitings <2636-katalalia->, whisperings <5587-psithurismos->, swellings <5450-phusiosis->, tumults <0181-akatastasia->:

:21 [And] lest <3361-me->, when I come <2064-erchomai-> again <3825-palin->, my God <2316-theos-> will humble <5013-tapeinoo-> me among <4314-pros-> you, and [that] I shall bewail <3996-pentheo-> many <4183-polus-> which <3588-ho-> have sinned <4258-proamartano-> already <4258-proamartano->, and have not repented <3340-metanoeo-> of the uncleanness <0167-akatharsia-> and fornication <4202-porneia-> and lasciviousness <0766-aselgeia-> which <3739-hos-> they have committed <4238-prasso->.

:2Corinthians 13

: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->.

:2 I told <4280-proereo-> you before <4280-proereo->, and foretell <4302-prolego-> you, as if <1437-ean-> I were present <3918-pareimi->, the second <1208-deuteros-> time; and being absent <0548-apeimi-> now <3568-nun-> I write <1125-grapho-> to them which heretofore <4258-proamartano-> have sinned <4258-proamartano->, and to all <3956-pas-> other <3062-loipoy->, that, if I come <2064-erchomai-> again <3825-palin->, I will not spare <5339-pheidomai->:

:3 Since <1893-epei-> ye seek <2212-zeteo-> a proof <1382-dokime-> of Christ <5547-Christos-> speaking <2980-laleo-> in me, which <3739-hos-> to you-ward <5209-humas-> is not weak <0770-astheneo->, but is mighty <1414-dunateo-> in you.

: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->.

:9 For we are glad <5463-chairo->, when <3752-hotan-> we are weak <0770-astheneo->, and ye are strong <1415-dunatos->: and this <5124-touto-> also <2532-kai-> we wish <2172-euchomai->, [even] your <5216-humon-> perfection <2676-katartisis->.

: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->.

:11. Finally <3063-loipon->, brethren <0080-adephos->, farewell <5463-chairo->. Be perfect <2675-katartizo->, be of good comfort <3870-parakaleo->, be of one <0846-autos-> mind <5426-phroneo->, live <1514-eireneuo-> in peace <1518-eirenopoios->; and the God <2316-theos-> of love <0026-agape-> and peace <1515-eirene-> shall be with you.

:12 Greet <0782-aspazomai-> one <0240-allelon-> another <0240-allelon-> with an holy <0040-hagios-> kiss <5370-philema->.

:13 All <3956-pas-> the saints <0040-hagios-> salute <0782-aspazomai-> you.

:14 The grace <5485-charis-> of the Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->, and the love <0026-agape-> of God <2316-theos->, and the communion <2842-koinonia-> of the Holy <0040-hagios-> Ghost <4151-pneuma->, [be] with you all <3956-pas->. Amen <0281-amen->.
