lightness <1644 - elaphria - > ? or <2228 - e - > the things

that I purpose <1011 - bouleuo - > , do I purpose <1011 -

<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

anointed <5548 - chrio - > us , [ is ] God <2316 - theos - > ;

<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

histemi - > .

: 2Corinthians 2

: 1 . But I determined <2919 - krino - > this <5124 - touto -

: 2 For if <1487 - ei - > I make <3076 - lupeo - > you sorry

<3076 - lupeo - > , who <5101 - tis - > is he then <2532 - kai -

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 -

epitimia - > , which <3588 - ho - > [ was inflicted ] of many

<4119 - pleion - > .

: 7 So <5620 - hoste - > that contrariwise <5121 - tounantion -

charizomai - > [ him ] , and comfort <3870 - parakaleo - > [

him ] , lest <3381 - mepos - > perhaps <3381 - mepos - > such

<5108 - toioutos - > a one should be swallowed <2666 - katapino -

: 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 -

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

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 -

<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 -

his knowledge <1108 - gnosis - > by us in every <3956 - pas - >

: 15 For we are unto God <2316 - theos - > a sweet <2175 -

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

: 4 And such <5108 - toioutos - > trust <4006 - pepoithesis -

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

that ye were made <3076 - lupeo - > sorry <3076 - lupeo - > ,

worketh <2716 - katergazomai - > repentance <3341 - metanoia - >

to salvation <4991 - soteria - > not to be repented <0278 -

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 -

: 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 -

: 5 And [ this they did ] , not as we hoped <1679 - elpizo -

: 6 Insomuch <1519 - eis - > that we desired <3870 - parakaleo

faith <4102 - pistis - > , and utterance <3056 - logos - > ,

<5485 - charis - > also <2532 - kai - > .

: 8 I speak <3004 - lego - > not by commandment <2003 -

forwardness <4710 - spoude - > of others <2087 - heteros - > ,

and to prove <1381 - dokimazo - > the sincerity <1103 - gnesios -

<5547 - Christos - > , that , though he was rich <4145 -

<4433 - ptocheuo - > poor <4433 - ptocheuo - > , that ye

through his poverty <4432 - ptocheia - > might be rich <4147 -

: 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 -

: 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 -

[ it is ] accepted <2144 - euprosdektos - > according <2526 -

<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 -

<5228 - huper - > .

: 2Corinthians 9

: 1 . For as touching <4012 - peri - > the ministering <1248 -

superfluous <4053 - perissos - > for me to write <1125 - grapho -

: 2 For I know <1492 - eido - > the forwardness <4288 -
