Do not give evil for evil to any man. Let all your business be well ordered in the eyes of all men.

For rulers are not to be feared for good works but for evil. Wilt thou be without fear of the power? Do well then: and so shalt thou be praised of the same.

for they are God's agents to do you good. But if you do wrong you may well be afraid, for they do not carry swords for nothing. They are God's servants, to execute his wrath upon wrongdoers.

Then again, this man rates one day above another, while that man rates all days alike. Well, everyone must be convinced in his own mind;

For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.

whoever in this way continues serving Christ is well-pleasing to God and approved by men.

Well then, let us earnestly pursue the things that conduce to peace, and the things which are for mutual edification.

Well, is it not to eat flesh nor to drink wine nor to do aught whereby thy brother is caused to stumble.

And I myself also am confident regarding you, my brothers, that you yourselves are already full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and well able to give advice to one another.

that I should be the minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles may be well received, having been sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

for it pleased Macedonia and Achaia well to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who are in Jerusalem;

for it pleased well, and their debtors they are, for if in their spiritual things the nations did participate, they ought also, in the fleshly things, to minister to them.

Well, once I finish this business by putting the proceeds of the collection safely in their hands, I will start for Spain and take you on the way.

that I may be delivered from those in Judea who are disobedient, and that the help which I am taking to Jerusalem may be well received by God's people there,

that ye receive her in the Lord as becometh saints, and assist her in whatever affair she may have need of you; for she also hath been a helper of many others, as well as of myself.

who have risked their lives for me; I thank them, and not only I but all the Gentile churches as well.

Likewise, greet all the congregation that is in their house. Salute my well beloved Epaenetes, which is the firstfruit among them of Achaia.

Greet Andronicus and Junia, my compatriots and my fellow prisoners, who are well known to the apostles, who were also in Christ before me.

Greet Rufus, an eminent and choice man in the Lord, also his mother [who has been] a mother to me as well.

For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked.

For the report of your obedience has reached everyone, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil.

to the church of God at Corinth, to those who are consecrated by union with Christ Jesus, and called as God's people, like all those anywhere who call on the name of Jesus Christ, their Lord as well as ours;

(Well, I did baptize the household of Stephanas, but no one else, as far as I remember.)

For, seeing that, in the wisdom of God, the world, through its wisdom, did not get to knew God, God was well-pleased - through the foolishness of the thing proclaimed, to save them that believe.

For consider your calling, brothers, that not many [were] wise according to human standards, not many [were] powerful, not many [were] well born.

It is because of God that you are in union with the Messiah Jesus, who for us has become wisdom from God, as well as our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.

For I did not judge it well to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

For who ever understood the thoughts of the Lord, so as to give him instruction? No one. Well, our thoughts are Christ's thoughts.

For it seems to me, God has exhibited us apostles at the very end of the procession, like the men condemned to die in the arena. For we have become a spectacle to the whole universe, angels as well as men.

For we have become a spectacle to the universe, to angels as well as men. For Christ's sake we are held as fools, while you through union with Christ are men of wisdom. We are weak; you are strong. You are held in honor; we in dishonor.

Now concerning the question in your letter. It is well for a man to have no intercourse with a woman,

The wife does not have [sole] authority over her own [physical] body, but the husband [also has his right to it]. And in the same way, the husband also does not have [sole] authority over his own [physical] body, but the wife [i.e., has her right to it, as well].

But to the unmarried, and the widows, I say that it is well for them to remain as I am.

But, unto the rest, say, I - not the Lord, - if, any brother, hath, a wife that believeth not, and, she, is well pleased to dwell with him, let him not leave her;

And, a woman who hath a husband that believeth not, and, he, is well pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband; -

I think then that because of the impending distress [that is, the pressure of the current trouble], it is good for a man to remain as he is.

Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.

So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.

But she will be happier, in my judgment, if she remains as she is, and I think I have God's spirit as well as other people.

If a man thinks he has acquired some knowledge, he does not yet know it as well as he ought to know it.

Now as to eating food that has been offered to idols, we know well that an idol has no real existence in the universe, and that there is no God but One.

It cannot be that we have no right to take a Christian wife about with us, can it, as well as the rest of the apostles and the Lord's brothers, and Cephas?

Am I saying these things only on the basis of common sense, or does the law not say this as well?

Well, I run without swerving; I do not plant my blows upon the empty air ??27 no, I maul and master my body, in case, after preaching to other people, I am disqualified myself.

And all drank the same spiritual drink (for they drank out of the spiritual rock which followed them; and that rock was Christ) Yet, with the most of them, God was not well-pleased;

But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

No one should look out for his own interests [only], but for the interests of others [as well].

For if a woman be not covered, she may as well be shorn: but if it be shameful to a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

If, however, any one still thinks it right to contest the point-well, we have no such custom, nor have the Churches of God.

Well then, my brothers, when you gather for a meal, wait for one another;

while our well-shaped parts do not want for anything. Yes, God has perfectly adjusted the body, giving great honor to its apparently inferior parts,

So it is with you; unless in your ecstatic speaking you speak a message that is clearly intelligible, how can the message spoken by you be understood? You might just as well be talking to the air!

Well, unless I understand the meaning of what is said to me, I shall appear to the speaker to be talking gibberish, and to my mind he will be talking gibberish himself.

Therefore, the person who speaks in a language [supernaturally] should pray [i.e., in advance] for the ability to interpret it [as well].

What, then, is my conclusion? Simply this-I will pray with my spirit, but with my mind as well; I will sing with my spirit, but with my mind as well.

Thou verily givest thanks well: but the other is not edified.

Very well then, brothers; when you meet together, each contributes something ??a song of praise, a lesson, a revelation, a 'tongue,' an interpretation? Good, but let every thing be for edification.

Of preachers two or three should speak, and the rest should weigh well what is said.

You can all prophesy quite well, one after another, so as to let all learn and all be encouraged.

Well then, my beloved brothers, hold your ground, immovable; abound in work for the Lord at all times, for you may be sure that in the Lord your labour is never thrown away.

On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.

for I have a great and promising opportunity here, as well as many opponents.

If Timothy visit you, take care he may be perfectly safe: for he labours in the cause of christianity, as well as I.

to be subject to such leaders [treating them with courtesy and respect], and to everyone who helps in the work and labors [for the benefit of yourselves and the church].

For they have refreshed my spirit as well as yours: have a due regard therefore to such worthy persons.

All the believers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

PAUL an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and brother Timotheus, to the church of God at Corinth as well as to all the saints throughout the whole of Achaia:

And whether we are pressed, for your comfort and salvation, being well wrought in endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer: whether we are comforted, for your comfort and salvation.

My hope for you is well founded; because I know that just as you, brothers, are sharers of my sufferings, so you will be sharers of my comfort too.

For we do not write other things to you but what ye well know and recognise; and I hope that ye will recognise to the end,

Such was my intention. Now, have I shown myself 'fickle'? When I propose some plan, do I propose it in a worldly way, ready to mean 'no' as well as 'yes'?

But it is God who makes us as well as you secure through union with Christ, and has anointed us,

For my own sake, as well, I decided not to pay you another painful visit.

But if anyone has caused sadness, he has not saddened me alone, but to some extent (not to exaggerate) he has saddened all of you as well.

Well, when I reached Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, though I had a wide opportunity in the Lord,

you are well known to be a letter of Christ, written by us as his ministers, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

Therefore, we are always of good cheer, and know well that as long as we are at home in the body we are absent from God.

we have courage, and are well pleased rather to be away from the home of the body, and to be at home with the Lord.

Wherefore also we are ambitious, whether at home or away from home, to be well pleasing to him,

for we have all to appear without disguise before the tribunal of Christ, each to be requited for what he has done with his body, well or ill.

Seeing, then, that we know how the Lord is to be feared, we fare fair with men. For we are known well enough unto God. I trust also that we are known in your consciences.

I am not trying to recommend myself to you again. I am giving you ground for speaking well of me, that you may have something to say to those who are constantly prating about external privileges and not concerned about the state of the heart.

'I am beside myself,' am I? Well, that is between myself and God. I am 'sane,' am I? Well, that is in your interests;

For he saith, "I have heard thee in a time accepted: and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee." Behold, now is that well accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation.

Through honour and dishonour, through evil report and good report; as deceivers, yet true, As unknown, yet well-known;

obscure, when I am well known, at the point of death, yet here I am alive, punished, but not dead yet,

I speak not this to your reproach: for I have already assured you, that I am so heartily well affected to you, I could live and die with you.

For if I have boasted to him about anything concerning you, I have not been embarrassed by you, but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting to Titus about you has proved true as well.

So we urged Titus that as he had previously made a beginning, so he would also complete in you this gracious work as well.

Now then, you are to the front in everything, in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all zeal, and in love for us ??do come to the front in this gracious enterprise as well.

I don't mean to prescribe to you, but that the zeal of others may show you are as sincerely well-affected.

Now here is my advice on what is best to do in this matter: Since you were the first ones to begin [taking up a collection] a year ago, [now you should] not only be doing something [about it], but [you should continue] wanting to do something [as well].

Now finish doing it, so that your readiness to undertake it may be equaled by the way you finish it up, as well as your means permit.

for if the willing mind is present, according to that which any one may have it is well-accepted, not according to that which he hath not;

For he accepted the request. Yea, rather he was so well willing, that of his own accord came unto you.

I am sending with him the well-known brother whose praise for spreading the good news is ringing through all the churches.

wherefore show how much you love them, and how well you deserve the character I gave you, before all the churches.

for I know your eagerness [to promote this cause], and I have [proudly] boasted to the people of Macedonia about it, telling them that Achaia has been prepared since last year [for this contribution], and your enthusiasm has inspired the majority of them [to respond].

So my reason for sending our Brothers is to prevent what we said about you from proving, in this particular matter, an empty boast, and to enable you to be as well prepared as I have been saying that you are.

having this proof of you by such a supply, they will glorify God for your profess'd subjection to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution to them as well as others;
