But if we hope for what we see not, then with patience we wait for it.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

But in all these things we are more than conquerors, through him that loved us.

Neither because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

That is, They who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac,

(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth)

As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

So then, it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy.

No, but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?

Even us whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles.

But Israel, who followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

Why? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling-stone;

For I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

But the righteousness which is by faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down.)

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First, Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found by them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not for me.

But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people.

But what saith the answer of God to him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.

I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? By no means: but rather through their fall salvation is come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

For if the rejection of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?

Boast not against the branches. But if thou boastest, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear:

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them who fell, severity; but towards thee, goodness, if thou shalt continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as concerning the election, they are beloved for the father's sakes.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable, and perfect will of God.

For through the grace given to me, I say, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Be of the same mind one towards another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place to wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. For there is no power but from God: the powers that are, are ordained by God.

For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power; do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same:

For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou doest that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the lusts of flesh.

Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at naught thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of Christ.

Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling-block, or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean by itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

But if thy brother is grieved with thy food, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy food, for whom Christ died.

For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

For the sake of food, destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offense.

For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

But as it is written, They shall see to whom he was not spoken of: and they that have not heard shall understand.

But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you;

But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

Who have for my life laid down their own necks: to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

For your obedience is come abroad to all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise to that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgment.

I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

For Christ hath not sent me to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but to us who are saved, it is the power of God.

But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

But to them who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who from God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power:

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the world to our glory:

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

But God hath revealed them to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, even the deep things of God.

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God.

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Spirit teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged by no man.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal, even as to babes in Christ.

Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

I have planted, Apollos watered: but God hath given the increase.

So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth: but God that giveth the increase.

According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth upon it. But let every man take heed how he buildeth upon it.

If any man's work shall be burned, he will suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by man's judgment: yes, I judge not my own self.

For I know nothing against myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honorable, but we are despised.

I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.

But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them who are puffed up, but the power.

For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

But now I have written to you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother is a lewd person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such person no not to eat.

But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before unbelievers.

But ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.

And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

All things are lawful to me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for lewdness, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

But he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

Flee lewdness. Every sin that a man doeth, is without the body; but he that committeth lewdness, sinneth against his own body.

The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
