'Rather' in the Bible

and ye are having been puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he may be removed out of the midst of you who did this work,

Already, indeed, then, there is altogether a fault among you, that ye have judgments with one another; wherefore do ye not rather suffer injustice? wherefore be ye not rather defrauded?

a servant -- wast thou called? be not anxious; but if also thou art able to become free -- use it rather;

And I have used none of these things; neither did I write these things that it may be so done in my case, for it is good for me rather to die, than that any one may make my glorying void;

Pursue the love, and seek earnestly the spiritual things, and rather that ye may prophecy,

but in an assembly I wish to speak five words through my understanding, that others also I may instruct, rather than myriads of words in an unknown tongue.
