<2347 -thlipsis -> which <3588 -ho -> came <1096 -ginomai -> to

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

01 : 09 But we had <2192 -echo -> the sentence <0610 -apokrima -

that we should not trust <3982 -peitho -> in ourselves <1438 -

01 : 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

01 : 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

and more <4056 -perissoteros -> abundantly <4056 -perissoteros -

01 : 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 -> ;

01 : 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 -> .

01 : 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 -> ;

01 : 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 ->

01 : 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 -> ?

01 : 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 -> .

01 : 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 -> .

01 : 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 .

01 : 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 -> ;

01 : 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 -> .

01 : 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 -> .

01 : 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 -> .

02 : 01 . 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 -> .

02 : 02 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 ?

02 : 03 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 -> .

02 : 04 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 .

02 : 05 . 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 -> .

02 : 06 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 -> .

02 : 07 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 -> .

02 : 08 Wherefore <1352 -dio -> I beseech <3870 -parakaleo ->

you that ye would confirm <2964 -kuroo -> [ your ] love <0026 -

agape -> toward <1519 -eis -> him .

02 : 09 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 .

02 : 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 -> ;

02 : 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 -> .

02 : 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 -> ,

02 : 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 -> .

02 : 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 -> .

02 : 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 -> :

02 : 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 ?

02 : 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 -> .

03 : 01 . 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 ?

03 : 02 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 -> :

03 : 03 [ 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 -> .

03 : 04 And such <5108 -toioutos -> trust <4006 -pepoithesis ->

have <2192 -echo -> we through <1223 -dia -> Christ <5547 -

Christos -> to God -ward <2316 -theos -> :

03 : 05 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 -> ;

03 : 06 . 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

, but the spirit <4151 -pneuma -> giveth life <2227 -zoopoieo ->

03 : 07 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 -> :

03 : 08 How <4459 -pos -> shall not the ministration <1248 -

diakonia -> of the spirit <4151 -pneuma -> be rather <3123 -

mallon -> glorious <1391 -doxa -> ?

03 : 09 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 ->

03 : 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 -> .

03 : 11 For if <1487 -ei -> that which is done <2673 -katargeo -

<4183 -polus -> more <3123 -mallon -> that which remaineth <3306

-meno -> [ is ] glorious <1391 -doxa -> .

03 : 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 :

03 : 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 -> :

03 : 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 -> .

03 : 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 -> .

03 : 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

05 : 11 Knowing <1492 -eido -> therefore <3767 -oun -> the

07 : 03 I speak <3004 -lego -> not [ this ] to condemn <2633 -

07 : 04 Great <4183 -polus -> [ is ] my boldness <3954 -

parrhesia -> of speech toward <4314 -pros -> you , great <4183 -

exceeding <5248 -huperperisseuo -> joyful <5479 -chara -> in all

07 : 05 . 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 -> .

07 : 06 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 -> ;

07 : 07 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

<5620 -hoste -> that I rejoiced <5463 -chairo -> the more <3123 -

07 : 08 For though <1499 -ei kai -> I made <3076 -lupeo -> you

not repent <3338 -metamellomai -> , though <1499 -ei kai -> I

<1499 -ei kai -> [ it were ] but for a season <5610 -hora -> .

07 : 09 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 -

07 : 11 For behold <2400 -idou -> this <5124 -touto -> selfsame

<0846 -autos -> thing , that ye sorrowed <3076 -lupeo -> after

ye have approved <4921 -sunistao -> yourselves <1438 -heautou ->

to be clear <0053 -hagnos -> in this <3588 -ho -> matter <4229 -

07 : 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 -

theos -> might appear <5319 -phaneroo -> unto you .

07 : 13 Therefore <5124 -touto -> we were comforted <3870 -

of Titus <5103 -Titos -> , because <3754 -hoti -> his spirit

<4151 -pneuma -> was refreshed <0373 -anapano -> by you all

<3956 -pas -> .

07 : 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

<2532 -kai -> so <3779 -houto -> our boasting <2746 -kauchesis -

07 : 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 .

07 : 16 I rejoice <5463 -chairo -> therefore that I have

confidence <2292 -tharrheo -> in you in all <3956 -pas -> [

things ] .

08 : 01 . 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 -> ;

08 : 02 How that in a great <4183 -polus -> trial <1382 -dokime -

perisseia -> of their joy <5479 -chara -> and their deep <0899 -

> unto the riches <4149 -ploutos -> of their liberality <0572 -

haplotes -> .

08 : 03 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 -> ;

08 : 04 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 -> .

08 : 05 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 -> .

08 : 06 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 -

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

08 : 07 . 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 -> .

08 : 08 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 -> .

08 : 09 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 -> .

08 : 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 -> .

08 : 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 -> .

08 : 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 .

08 : 13 For [ I mean ] not that other <0243 -allos -> men be

eased <0425 -anesis -> , and ye burdened <2347 -thlipsis -> :

08 : 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 -> :

08 : 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 -> .

08 : 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 .

08 : 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 .

08 : 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 -> ;

08 : 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 -

declaration of ] your <5216 -humon -> ready <4288 -prothumia ->

mind <4288 -prothumia -> :

08 : 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 :

08 : 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 -> .

08 : 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 .

08 : 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 -> .

08 : 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 -> .

09 : 01 . 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 :

09 : 02 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 -> .

09 : 03 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 -> :

09 : 04 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 -> .

09 : 05 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 -> .

09 : 06 . 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 -> .

09 : 07 Every <1538 -hekastos -> man according <2531 -kathos ->

09 : 08 And God <2316 -theos -> [ is ] able <1415 -dunatos -> to

<3739 -hos -> it is not lawful <1832 -exesti -> for a man <0444 -

anthropos -> to utter <2980 -laleo -> .

12 : 05 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 -> .

12 : 06 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

12 : 07 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

Satan <4567 -Satanas -> to buffet <2852 -kolaphizo -> me , lest

<3361 -me -> I should be exalted <5229 -huperairomai -> above

12 : 08 For this <5127 -toutou -> thing I besought <3870 -

parakaleo -> the Lord <2962 -kurios -> thrice <5151 -tris -> ,

that it might depart <0868 -aphistemi -> from me .

12 : 09 And he said <2046 -ereo -> unto me , My grace <5485 -

strength <1411 -dunamis -> is made <5048 -teleioo -> perfect

<5048 -teleioo -> in weakness <0769 -astheneia -> . Most <2236 -

12 : 10 Therefore <1352 -dio -> I take pleasure <2106 -eudokeo -

hubris -> , in necessities <0318 -anagke -> , in persecutions

Christ s <5547 -Christos -> sake : for when <3752 -hotan -> I

12 : 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 -

chiefest <3029 -lian -> apostles <0652 -apostolos -> , though

<1499 -ei kai -> I be nothing <3762 -oudeis -> .

12 : 12 Truly <3303 -men -> the signs <4591 -semaino -> of an

apostle <0652 -apostolos -> were wrought <2716 -katergazomai ->

hupomone -> , in signs <4591 -semaino -> , and wonders <5059 -

teras -> , and mighty <1411 -dunamis -> deeds <1411 -dunamis -> .

12 : 13 For what <5101 -tis -> is it wherein <3757 -hou -> ye

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 -> .

12 : 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 -

12 : 15 And I will very <2236 -hedista -> gladly <2236 -hedista -

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 -> .

12 : 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 -> .

12 : 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 ?

12 : 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 -

[ walked <4043 -peripateo -> we ] not in the same <0846 -autos -

12 : 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 ->

things , dearly beloved <0027 -agapetos -> , for your <5216 -

humon -> edifying <3619 -oikodome -> .

12 : 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

backbitings <2636 -katalalia -> , whisperings <5587 -

psithurismos -> , swellings <5450 -phusiosis -> , tumults <0181 -

akatastasia -> :

12 : 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 -

have committed <4238 -prasso -> .

13 : 01 . 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 -> .

13 : 02 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 -> :

13 : 03 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 .

13 : 04 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 .

13 : 05 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 -> ?

13 : 06 But I trust <1679 -elpizo -> that ye shall know <1097 -

ginosko -> that we are not reprobates <0096 -adokimos -> .

13 : 07 . 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 -> .

13 : 08 For we can <1410 -dunamai -> do nothing <5100 -tis ->

against <2596 -kata -> the truth <0225 -aletheia -> , but for

the truth <0225 -aletheia -> .

13 : 09 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 -> .

13 : 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

13 : 11 . Finally <3063 -loipon -> , brethren <0080 -adephos ->

be of good comfort <3870 -parakaleo -> , be of one <0846 -autos -

<1518 -eirenopoios -> ; and the God <2316 -theos -> of love

<0026 -agape -> and peace <1515 -eirene -> shall be with you .

13 : 12 Greet <0782 -aspazomai -> one <0240 -allelon -> another

<0240 -allelon -> with an holy <0040 -hagios -> kiss <5370 -

philema -> .

13 : 13 All <3956 -pas -> the saints <0040 -hagios -> salute
