'Except' in the Bible

For we are not writing [anything] else to you except what you can read or also understand. But I hope that you will understand {completely},

for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?

Do we begin again to recommend ourselves, except we need, as some, letters of recommendation unto you, or from you?

I will boast about this person, but not about myself, except of my weaknesses.

For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.

Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
