For behold, this same that ye grieve according to God, what care it wrought in you, but defence, but indignation, but fear, but anxious desire, but zeal, but punishing! In every thing ye recommended yourselves to be holy in this affair.

Wherefore, if I also wrote to you, not for him having been unjust, for him having suffered injustice, but that your care for us might be made manifest to you before God.

For if I have boasted anything to him of you, I was not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, so also was our boasting over Titus the truth.

And not as we hoped, but they gave themselves first to the Lord, and to us by the will of God.

But as ye abound in everything, in faith, and in word, and in knowledge, and in all care, and in love from you to us, that also ye abound in this grace.

I speak not according to command, but by care of others, trying also the purity of your love.

And in this I give an opinion: for this is profitable to you, which no only to do, but to will, ye began before from last year.

But of equality, now in this time your abundance for their want, that also their abundance be for your want: that there be equality:

And not only, but also the hand stretched out by the churches for our fellow-traveller with this grace, served by us to the glory of the same Lord, and to your forwardness:

Providing good things beforehand, not only before the Lord, but also before men.

For the service of this office is not only filling up the wants of the saints, but also abounding through many thanks to God;

And I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and equity of Christ, who, in face truly low with you, but at a distance bold towards you:

(For the weapons of our warfare not fleshly, but powerful to God to the taking down of fortified places;)

(For truly the epistles, he says, weighty and strong; but the presence of the body weak, and the word counted as nothing.)

For we dare not appear or join ourselves to certain of them recommending themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and joining themselves to themselves, do not understand.

And we boast not of things immeasurable, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure divided to us, to reach even also to you.

But he boasting, let him boast in the Lord.

For not he recommending himself, this is acceptable, but whom the Lord recommends.

And, if also ignorant in the word, but not in knowledge; but in every thing, we having been made manifest in all for you.

What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in madness, in this first principle of boasting.

Behold, I have prepared to come to you the third time; and I will not act with negligence to you: for I seek not your things, but you: for children ought not to treasure up for parents, but parents for children.

And "let it be, I overloaded you not: but being dexterous, I took you by contrivance.

Since seek proof of Christ speaking in me, who to you is no weak, but has power in you.

For also if he was crucified from weakness, but he lives from the power of God. For also we are weak in him, but we live with him from the power of God to you.

And I pray to God that ye do nothing evil; not that we appear tried, but that ye do good, and we be as untried.

For we are not able anything against the truth, but for the truth.

Paul, sent, (not from men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, having raised him from the dead;)

But also if we, or a messenger from heaven, announce good news to you, more than what: we have announced to you, let him be anathema.

But I make known to you, brethren, the good news announced by me that it is not according to man.

For I neither received it from man, neither was I taught, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them sent before me; but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus.

And I went up according to revelation, and placed before them the good news which I proclaim in the nations, but apart to them highly esteemed, lest I run in vain, or ran.

But neither Titus, with me, being a Greek, was forced to be circumcised:

But on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the good news of uncircumcision, as Peter of circumcision;

But when I saw that they went not upon the strait road according to the truth of the good news, I said to Peter before all, If thou, being a Jew, livest according to the nations, and not according to the Jews, why forcest thou the nations to live as the Jews?

Knowing that a man is not justified from the works of the law, but through faith of Jesus Christ, and we believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified from the faith of Christ, and not from the works of the law: therefore from the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

I am crucified with Christ: and I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in we: and what I now live in the flesh I live in the faith of the Son of God, having loved me, and given himself for me.

And the law is not of faith: but, The man having done them shall live in them.

And to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He says not, And to seeds, as to many; but as to one: And to thy seed, who is Christ.

But the writing shut up all things under sin, that the promise from faith of Jesus Christ might be given to the believing.

But is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.

So that thou art no more a servant, but a son: and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.

But then truly, not having known God, ye were in a servile condition to them not being gods by nature.

And my temptation in my flesh, ye counted not as nothing, nor spurned; but as an angel of God ye received me, as Christ Jesus.

They are zealous for you, not well; but they wish to exclude you, that ye might be zealous for them.

But he truly of the bondmaid was born according to the flesh; and he of the free through the promise.

But Jerusalem above is free, which is mother of us all.

But as then he born according to the flesh drove out him according to the Spirit, so also now.

But what says the writing? Cast out the bondmaid and her son; for the son of the bondmaid shall not inherit with the son of the free.

Therefore, brethren, we are not children of the bondmaid, but of the free.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any power, nor uncircumcision; but faith being energetic through love.

For ye were called to liberty brethren; only not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but through love serve ye one another.

For he sowing to his flesh of the flesh shall reap corruption; but he sowing to the Spirit, of the Spirit shall reap eternal life.

For neither they being circumcised themselves observe the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they might boast in your flesh.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any power, nor uncircumcision but a new creation.

Above every beginning, and authority, and power, and property, and every name named, not only in this life, but in that about to be:

But God, being rich in mercy, by his much love which he loved us,

Wherefore then are ye no more foreigners and sojourners, but fellow-citizens of the holy, and the household of God;

Let not any foul word go out of your mouth, but if any good to the building of necessity, that it might give grace to them hearing.

And obscenity, and silly discourse, or wit, which things concern not; but rather thankfulness.

See therefore how ye walk accurately, not as unwise, but as wise,

For this be not foolish, but understanding what the will of the Lord.

And be not drunk with wine, in which is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit;

But as the church is subjected to Christ, so also wives to their own husbands in everything.

That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing: but that it be holy and blameless.

For none at any time hates his own flesh; but brings it up and cherishes it, as also the Lord the church:

This is a great mystery: but I speak to Christ and to the church.

But ye also altogether, let each so love his own wife as himself: and the wife that she fear her husband.

And, fathers, be not angry with your children: but bring them up in the instruction and reminding of the Lord.

Not with eye-service, as menpleasers; but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the soul:

For the wrestling is not to us against blood and flesh, but against beginnings, against powers, against the chiefs of the world of darkness of this life, against spiritual things of wickedness in heavenly things.

For what? but in any manner, whether in pretence, or truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, and certainly I will rejoice.

According to my anxious expectation, and hope, that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but in all freedom of speech, as always, and now shall Christ be Magnified in my body, whether by life, whether by death.

For upon you was it conferred as a favor for Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him;

Nothing by hired labor, or vainglory; but in lowliness the leaders hold each other above themselves.

Look ye each not on the things of themselves, but also each the things of others.

But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, born in the likeness of men:

Therefore, my beloved, as ye have always listened, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, with fear and tremor effect your own salvation.

But if also I am poured out upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice together with you all.

For also he was sick near to death: but God compassionated him; and not him only, but also me, lest I should have grief upon grief.

But what things were gain to me, these I have thought loss for Christ.

But surely, I also think all things to be loss for the superiority of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have been made to lose all things, and I think to be offscourings, that I shall gain Christ,

And be found in him, not having my justice, that of the law, but that by faith of Christ, the justice from God by faith:

Brethren, I reckon not myself to have been overtaken: but one, truly forgetting things behind, and stretching still farther to things before,

But, at what we before arrived, to walk by the same rule, to think the same.

Rave anxiety about nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with gratitude let your desires be made known to God.

But ye did well, participating together in my pressure.

Not that I covet a gift: but I covet fruit abounding to your word.

For if also I am away in the flesh but in the Spirit am I with you, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

Where no Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, servant, free: but Christ all things, and in all.

Servants, listen ye in all things to lords according to the flesh; not in eyeservice as pleasing men; but in simplicity of heart, fearing God:

For our good news was not to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much complete certainty; as we know what we were among you for your sake.

For from you sounded forth the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith towards God went out; so that we have no need to speak any thing.

But also having suffered before, and having been injured, as ye know, among the Philippians, we acted freely in our God to speak to you the good news of God with much contest.

But as we have been tried by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, trying our hearts:

But we were gentle in the midst of you, as a nurse should cherish her children:

So longing for you, we are contented to impart to you, not only the good news of God, but also our own souls, because ye are dearly beloved to us.

For this also we return thanks to God continually, that, having received the word of God from our report, ye received not the word of man, but as it is truly, the word of God, which is also energetic in you the believing.

But God has not called you to uncleanness, but in consecration.

For surely therefore he despising, despises not man, but God, he also giving his holy Spirit for us.
