If, then, I know not the meaning of the voice, I will be to him who is speaking a barbarian; and he that is speaking, a barbarian to me.

Wherefore, let him that speaks in a tongue, pray that he may interpret.

but, if there is no interpreter, let him keep silence in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.

If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge the things that I write to you, that they are the Lord's commandment;

but, if any is ignorant, let him be ignorant.

for He put all things in subjection under His feet. But, when He saith, "All things have been put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted, Who subjected all things to Him.

And, when all things shall be subjected to Him, then will the Son also Himself be subjected to Him Who subjected all things to Him, that God may be all in all.

On the first day of the sabbaths, let each one of you lay by him, treasuring it up, as he may prosper, that no collections be made, when I come.

Let no one, therefore, despise him; but send him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

But concerning Apollos, the brother, I besought him much to come to you with the brethren; and it was not at all his will to come now; but he will come, when he shall have opportunity.

If anyone loves not the Lord, let him be accursed, when the Lord cometh!

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, Who was preached among you through us??hrough me and Sylvanus and Timothy??as not "Yea" and "Nay," "Nay," but in Him is "Yea."

For however many are the promises of God, in Him is the "Yea"; wherefore, also, through Him is the "Amen," to the glory of God through us.

so that, on the contrary, ye ought rather to forgive and console him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.

Wherefore, I beseech you to confirm your love toward him.

Wherefore, we also make it our aim??hether being at home or being from home??o be well-pleasing to Him.

and He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to Him Who died for them, and rose again.

Wherefore, we henceforth know no one according to the flesh; even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now no longer do we know Him thus.

Him Who knew no sin He made to be sin on our behalf, that we may become God's righteousness in Him.

And, working together with Him, we also entreat you that ye receive not the grace of God in vain

So, although I wrote to you, it was not on account of him who did the wrong, nor of him who suffered wrong, but that your earnest care on our behalf might be manifested to you in the sight of God.

For, if in anything I have gloried to him on your behalf, I was not made ashamed; but, as we spake all things to you in truth, so also our glorying before Titus was found to be truth.

And his tender affections are more abundantly toward you, while he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.

And we sent with him the brother whose praise in the Gospel is in all the assemblies;

Ye look at things according to appearance. If anyone has trusted to himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again with himself, that, as he is Christ's, so also are we.

But he that glories let him glory in the Lord;

For, if he that comes preaches another Jesus, Whom we did not preach; or, if ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not receive, or a different Gospel, which ye did not accept; well do ye bear with him.

I entreated Titus, and sent with him the brother. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? did we not walk in the same steps?

for, indeed, He was crucified through weakness, but He liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him through the power of God toward you.

Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),

I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from Him Who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different Gospel,

But even if we or an angel out of Heaven should proclaim a Gospel to you other than that which we delivered to you, let him be accursed!

As we have said before, even now also I say again, if any one is delivering a Gospel to you, contrary to that which ye received, let him be accursed.

to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim the good news of Him among the gentiles; straightway I conferred not with flesh and blood,

Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and continued with him fifteen days.

But, when Cephas came to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was blameworthy;

And the rest of the Jews also dissembled with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness.

But, just as then, the one born after the flesh kept persecuting him born after the Spirit, so also is it now.

The persuasion is not from Him Who calleth you.

But let him who is being taught in the word share with him who is teaching, in all good things.

according as He chose us in Him before the founding of a world, that we should be holy and without blemish before Him in love;

making known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him,

for a dispensation of the fulness of the seasons, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth; in Him,

in Whom we also were made a heritage, having been predestinated according to the purpose of Him Who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will;

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory, would give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the full knowledge of Him;

which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and seated Him at His right hand in the Heavenly places,

and He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as Head over all things to the assembly,

which, indeed, is His body, the fulness of Him Who is filling all in all.

and raised us up with Him, and made us sit with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus;

because through Him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

in Whom we have boldness and access with confidence through the faith of Him.

Now to Him Who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,

to Him be the glory in the assembly, and in Christ Jesus, unto all generations of the age of the ages. Amen.

but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him, Who is the Head, Christ;

if, indeed, ye heard Him, and were taught in Him, as truth is in Jesus;

Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands that which is good, that he may have to impart to him that has need.

And, masters, do the same thing to them, forbearing the threat; knowing that both their Master and yours is in Heaven, and there is no respect of persons with Him.

but to you it was granted as a favor in behalf of Christ, not only to believe on Him, but in His behalf to suffer also;

Wherefore also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed upon Him the name which is above every name;

But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child with a father, he served with me in furtherance of the Gospel.

Him, indeed, therefore, I hope to send immediately, as soon as I may look away from the things which concern me:

For, in fact, he was sick, near to death; but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

I sent him, therefore, the more urgently, that, seeing him again, ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful.

Receive him, therefore, in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honor;

and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is of law, but that which is through faith in Christ??he righteousness which is of God by faith:

that I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death;

I am strong enough for all things in Him Who strengtheneth me.

because in Him were all things created, in the heavens, and upon the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers??ll things have been created through Him, and for Him;

and He is before all things, and in Him all things have held together.

because it was pleasing that in Him all the fulness should dwell;

and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, whether the things on the earth, or the things in the heavens.

yet now did He reconcile in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and without blemish, and irreproachable, before Him;

As, therefore, ye received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him;

having been rooted and being built up in Him, and being established in the faith as ye were taught, abounding with thanksgiving.

because in Him dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily;

and ye have been made complete in Him, Who is the Head of all principality and power;

having been buried with Him in your immersion, in which ye were also raised with Him through faith in the working of God, Who raised Him from the dead;

and you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, did He make alive with Him: having freely forgiven us all our trespasses;

When Christ, our Life, shall be manifested, then shall ye also with Him be manifested in glory.

and having put on the new man who is being renewed unto full knowledge, according to the image of Him Who created him;

And whatsoever ye do in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, salutes you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas, concerning whom ye received commandments (if he come to you, receive him),

For I bear him witness, that he has much concern in behalf of you, and those in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.

for, if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also those who fell asleep in Jesus will God bring with Him.

Who died for us, that, whether we watch or sleep, we may live together with Him.

that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and ye in Him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.

Now we request you, brethren, regarding the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together to Him,

him whose coming is according to the working of Satan in all power and signs and lying wonders,

For, even when we were with you, this we commanded you, "If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat."

And, if anyone obey not our word through this letter, note this one, not to associate with him, that he may be ashamed.

And regard him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

I have thanks for Him Who empowered me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because He accounted me faithful, putting me into His service,

but for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me, as chief, Christ Jesus might show forth all His longsuffering for an example to those about to believe on Him unto eternal life.

Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men, as brethren:

(the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord in that day); and in how many things he ministered at Ephesus, you know very well.

No one, serving as a soldier, entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.

Faithful is the saying; for, if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him;

if we endure, we shall also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He will also deny us;

and they may return to soberness out of the snare of the Devil, having been taken captive by him in accordance with his will.
