³¹ And you have remembered your ways that [are] evil, And your doings that [are] not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, For your iniquities, and for your abominations."

¹⁹ Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Yahweh:Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand." ²⁰ And the sticks on which you write have been in your hand before your eyes,

²⁶ And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant eonian it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst--to the eon."

¹ In the twenty and fifth year of our removal, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in this self-same day has a hand of Yahweh been upon me, and He brings me in thither;" ² in visions of Elohim He has brought me in unto the land of Israel, and causes me to rest on a very high mountain, and upon it [is] as the frame of a city on the south." ³ And He brings me in thither, and lo, a man, his appearance as the appearance of brass, and a thread of flax in his hand, and a measuring-reed, and he is standing at the gate, ⁴ and the man speaks unto me:`Son of man, see with your eyes, And with your ears hear, And set your heart to all that I am showing you, For, in order to show [it] you, You have been brought in hither, Declare all that you are seeing to the house of Israel.'" ⁵ And lo, a wall on the outside of the house all round about, and in the hand of the man a measuring-reed, six cubits by a cubit and a handbreadth, and he measures the breadth of the building one reed, and the height one reed." ⁶ And he comes in unto the gate whose front [is] eastward, and he goes up by its steps, and he measures the threshold of the gate one reed broad, even the one threshold one reed broad, ⁷ and the little chamber one reed long and one reed broad, and between the little chambers five cubits, and the threshold of the gate, from the side of the porch of the gate from within, one reed." ⁸ And he measures the porch of the gate from within one reed, ⁹ and he measures the porch of the gate eight cubits, and its posts two cubits, and the porch of the gates from within, ¹⁰ and the little chambers of the gate eastward, three on this side, and three on that side; one measure [is] to them three, and one measure [is] to the posts, on this side and on that side." ¹¹ And he measures the breadth of the opening of the gate ten cubits, the length of the gate thirteen cubits;" ¹² and a border before the little chambers, one cubit, and one cubit [is] the border on this side, and the little chamber [is] six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side." ¹³ And he measures the gate from the roof of the [one] little chamber to the roof of another; the breadth twenty and five cubits, opening over-against opening." ¹⁴ And he makes the posts of sixty cubits, even unto the post of the court, the gate all round about;" ¹⁵ and by the front of the gate of the entrance, by the front of the porch of the inner gate, fifty cubits;" ¹⁶ and narrow windows [are] unto the little chambers, and unto their posts at the inside of the gate all round about--and so to the arches--and windows all round about [are] at the inside, and at the post [are] palm-trees." ¹⁷ And he brings me in unto the outer court, and lo, chambers and a pavement made for the court all round about--thirty chambers on the pavement--" ¹⁸ and the pavement unto the side of the gates over-against the length of the gates [is] the lower pavement; ¹⁹ and he measures the breadth from before the lower gate, to the front of the inner court, on the outside, a hundred cubits, eastward and northward." ²⁰ As to the gate of the outer court whose front [is] northward, he has measured its length and its breadth;" ²¹ and its little chambers, three on this side, and three on that side, and its posts and its arches have been according to the measure of the first gate, fifty cubits its length, and the breadth five and twenty by the cubit;" ²² and its windows, and its arches, and its palm-trees [are] according to the measure of the gate whose face [is] eastward, and by seven steps they go up on it, and its arches [are] before them." ²³ And the gate of the inner court [is] over-against the gate at the north and at the east; and he measures from gate unto gate, a hundred cubits." ²⁴ And he causes me to go southward, and lo, a gate southward, and he has measured its posts and its arches according to these measures;" ²⁵ and windows [are] to it and to its arches all round about, like these windows, fifty cubits the length, and the breadth five and twenty cubits;" ²⁶ and seven steps [are] its ascent, and its arches [are] before them, and palm-trees [are] to it, one on this side, and one on that side, at its posts;" ²⁷ and the gate of the inner court [is] southward, and he measures from gate unto gate southward, a hundred cubits." ²⁸ And he brings me in unto the inner court by the south gate, and he measures the south gate according to these measures;" ²⁹ and its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches [are] according to these measures, and windows [are] to it and to its arches all round about; fifty cubits the length, and the breadth twenty and five cubits." ³⁰ As to the arches all round about, the length [is] five and twenty cubits, and the breadth five cubits;" ³¹ and its arches [are] unto the outer court, and palm-trees [are] unto its posts, and eight steps [are] its ascent." ³² And he brings me in unto the inner court eastward, and he measures the gate according to these measures;" ³³ and its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches [are] according to these measures:and windows [are] to it and to its arches all round about, the length fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits;" ³⁴ and its arches [are] toward the outer court, and palm-trees [are] toward its posts, on this side and on that side, and eight steps [are] its ascent." ³⁵ And he brings me in unto the north gate, and has measured according to these measures;" ³⁶ its little chambers, its posts, and its arches; and windows [are] to it all round about:the length fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits;" ³⁷ and its posts [are] to the outer court, and palm-trees [are] unto its posts, on this side and on that side, and eight steps [are] its ascent." ³⁸ And the chamber and its opening [is] by the posts of the gates, there they purge the burnt-offering." ³⁹ And in the porch of the gate [are] two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slaughter on them the burnt-offering, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering;" ⁴⁰ and at the side without, at the going up to the opening of the north gate, [are] two tables; and at the other side that [is] at the porch of the gate, [are] two tables;" ⁴¹ four tables [are] on this side, and four tables on that side, at the side of the gate, eight tables on which they slaughter." ⁴² And the four tables for burnt-offering [are] of hewn stone:the length one cubit and a half, and the breadth one cubit and a half, and the height one cubit:on them they place the instruments with which they slaughter the burnt-offering and the sacrifice."

¹² And according to the openings of the chambers that [are] southward [is] an opening at the head of the way, the way directly in the front of the wall eastward in entering them."

⁵ We sin and we are depraved, we do wickedly and revolt, we withdraw from Thy instructions and from Thy judgments." ⁶ We do not hearken to Thy servants the prophets, who speak in Thy name to our kings, our chiefs, our forefathers and to all the people of the land." ⁷ To Thee, my Lord, is righteousness, yet to us is shamefacedness as at this day:To each man of Judah, to the dwellers of Jerusalem, to all the people of Israel, the near and the far, in all the lands where Thou hast expelled them for their offense with which they offend Thee." ⁸ To Thee, Yahweh, is righteousness, yet to us is shamefacedness:To our kings, to our chiefs, to our forefathers, who sin against Thee." ⁹ Of Yahweh our Elohim are compassions and pardons; for we revolt against Him."

⁹ Of Yahweh our Elohim are compassions and pardons; for we revolt against Him."

⁴ For many days shall the sons of Israel dwell without king and without chief, and without sacrifice and without altar, and without priesthood or thummim."

⁹ More than in the days of Gibeah do you sin, Israel; there they stood! In Gibeah the battle against the sons of iniquity is not overtaking them."

² And he is praying to Yahweh and saying, Oh Yahweh! Was not this my word while still I came to be on my own ground? Therefore I forestalled by running away to Tharshish, for I know that You are a gracious El, and compassionate, slow to anger and of much kindness, and regretting concerning the evil."

⁵ And this One comes to be Peace. When Assyria is entering into our land, and when he is treading in our ground, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight sovereigns of humanity."

¹⁸ Who is an El as You are, bearing with depravity, and passing over transgression, for the remnant of His allotment? He does not hold fast His anger for the future. For He delights in kindness." ¹⁹ He will return, having compassion on us. He will subdue our depravities. And You wilt fling into the shadowy depths of the sea all our sins." ²⁰ You wilt render the truth to Jacob, the kindness to Abraham, which You swear to our forefathers from days aforetime."

¹³ even he shall build the temple of Yahweh, and he shall bear the splendor. And he shall sit and rule on his throne, and there comes to be a priest at his throne, and the counsel of welfare shall come to be between the two of them."

¹⁰ And He will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem. And the bow of battle shall be cut off; and He will speak peace to the nations. And His rule is from sea unto sea and from the stream unto the limits of the land."

¹⁰ Yet I pour out on the house of David, and on the dwellers of Jerusalem, a spirit of grace and supplications; and they look to Him Whom they stabbed, and they will wail over Him as the wailing over the only son, and they will be embittered over Him as the embittering over the firstborn."

¹⁶ Thus let shine your light in front of men, so that they may perceive your ideal acts and should glorify your Father Who is in the heavens.

²² Yet Jesus is saying to him, "Be following Me, and leave the dead to entomb their own dead."

¹³ and if, indeed, the house should be worthy, let your peace come on it. Yet if it should not be worthy, let your peace be turned back on you."

²⁵ Sufficient is it for the disciple that he may be becoming as his teacher, and the slave as his lord. If they surname the householder Beezeboul, how much rather those of his household."

¹⁹ The Son of Mankind came eating and drinking, and they are saying, 'Lo! a man gluttonous and a tippler, a tribute collectors' and sinners' friend!' And justified was Wisdom by her acts."

⁴³ Now, whenever the unclean spirit may be coming out from a man, it is passing through waterless places seeking rest, and is not finding it." ⁴⁴ Then it is saying, 'Into my home will I be turning back, whence I came out.' And coming, it is finding it unoccupied, and swept and decorated." ⁴⁵ Then it is going and taking along with itself seven other spirits, more wicked than itself, and entering, it is dwelling there. And the last state of that man is becoming worse than the first. Thus will it be to this wicked generation also."

³⁸ Now the field is the world. Now the ideal seed, these are the sons of the kingdom. Now the darnel are the sons of the wicked one."

¹⁷ Now, answering, Jesus said to him, "Happy are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood does not reveal it to you, but My Father Who is in the heavens." ¹⁸ Now I, also, am saying to you that you are Peter, and on this rock will I be building My ecclesia, and the gates of the unseen shall not be prevailing against it."

⁴² Jesus is saying to them, "Did you never read in the scriptures, 'The stone which is rejected by the builders, This came to be for the head of the corner. From the Lord came this, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?

²⁹ Now I am saying to you that under no circumstances may I be drinking henceforth of this, the product of the grapevine, till that day whenever I may be drinking it new with you in the kingdom of My Father."

¹⁹ Going, then, disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit,

¹⁹ and the worries of this eon, and the seduction of riches and the desires about the rest, going in, are stifling the word, and it is becoming unfruitful."

²¹ For from inside, out of the heart of men, are going out evil reasonings, prostitutions, thefts, murders, ²² adulteries, greed, wickedness, guile, wantonness, a wicked eye, calumny, pride, imprudence."

¹⁰ Did you not yet read this scripture? - 'The stone which is rejected by the builders, This came to be for the head of the corner." ¹¹ From the Lord came this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.'"

¹⁶ He who believes and is baptized shall be saved, yet he who disbelieves shall be condemned."

⁷² To do mercy with our fathers, And to be reminded of His holy covenant,

⁷⁸ Because of the merciful compassions of our God, In which the Dayspring from on high visits us, ⁷⁹ To make Its advent to those sitting in darkness and the shadow of death, To direct our feet into the path of peace."

¹⁴ Glory to God among the Highest! And on earth peace, Among men, delight!"

⁵⁰ Now He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."

⁹ and cure the infirm in it, and say to them, 'Near to you is the kingdom of God.'" ¹⁰ Now into whatever city you may be entering, and they may not be receiving you, coming out into its squares, say, ¹¹ Even the dust on our feet, which is clinging to us out of your city, are we wiping off before you. Moreover, know this, that near to you is the kingdom of God!"

²¹ Whenever the strong one, armed, may be guarding his own courtyard, his possessions are in peace." ²² Yet if ever a stronger than he, coming on, should be conquering him, he is taking away his panoply, in which he had confidence, and is distributing his spoils." ²³ He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who is not gathering with Me is scattering." ²⁴ Whenever the unclean spirit may be coming out from a man, it is passing through waterless places, seeking rest, and not finding it. Then it is saying, 'I will be returning into my home whence I came out.'" ²⁵ And coming, it is finding it unoccupied, swept and decorated." ²⁶ Then it is going and taking along with itself seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and entering, it is dwelling there. And the last state of that man is becoming worse than the first."

³⁷ Happy are those slaves, whom the Lord, coming, will be finding watching. Verily, I am saying to you that He will be girding Himself about and causing them to recline, and, coming by, will be serving them."

⁵ And finding it, he is placing it on his shoulders, rejoicing." ⁶ And, coming into the house, he is calling together the friends and the neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice together with me that I found my sheep that was lost!'"

²⁴ for this my son was dead and revives; he was lost and was found.' And they begin to make merry.

³² Yet we must be merry and rejoice, seeing that this your brother was dead and revives, and was lost and was found.'"

⁸ And the lord applauds the unjust administrator, for he does prudently, for the sons of this eon are more prudent, above the sons of light in their own generation."

¹⁷ Yet He, looking at them, said, "What, then, is this that is written, 'The stone which is rejected by the builders, This came to be for the head of the corner'? ¹⁸ Everyone falling on that stone shall be shattered, yet on whomever it should be falling, it will be scattering him like chaff."

² And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they may be assassinating Him, for they feared the people." ³ Yet Satan entered into Judas, called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve."

²⁹ And I am covenanting a covenant with you, according as My Father covenanted a kingdom to Me, ³⁰ that you may be eating and drinking at My table in My kingdom. And you will be seated on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel." ³¹ Now the Lord said, "Simon, Simon, lo! Satan claims you men, to sift you as grain."

¹² Yet whoever obtained Him, to them He gives the right to become children of God, to those who are believing in His name, ¹³ who were begotten, not of bloods, neither of the will of the flesh, neither of the will of a man, but of God."

¹³ who were begotten, not of bloods, neither of the will of the flesh, neither of the will of a man, but of God."

¹ Now there was a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus his name, a chief of the Jews." ² This one came to Him by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we are aware that Thou art a Teacher come from God, for no one can be doing these signs which Thou art doing, if God should not be with Him." ³ Jesus answered and said to him, "Verily, verily, I am saying to you, If anyone should not be begotten anew, he can not perceive the kingdom of God." ⁴ Nicodemus is saying to him, "How can a man, being a veteran, be begotten? He can not be entering into the womb of his mother a second time and be begotten!" ⁵ Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I am saying to you, If anyone should not be begotten of water and of spirit, he can not be entering into the kingdom of God." ⁶ That which is begotten by the flesh is flesh, and that which is begotten by the spirit is spirit."

¹⁴ And, according as Moses exalts the serpent in the wilderness, thus must the Son of Mankind be exalted,

¹⁴ And, according as Moses exalts the serpent in the wilderness, thus must the Son of Mankind be exalted, ¹⁵ that everyone believing on Him should not be perishing, but may be having life eonian."

¹⁵ that everyone believing on Him should not be perishing, but may be having life eonian." ¹⁶ For thus God loves the world, so that He gives His only-begotten Son, that everyone who is believing in Him should not be perishing, but may be having life eonian."

¹⁶ For thus God loves the world, so that He gives His only-begotten Son, that everyone who is believing in Him should not be perishing, but may be having life eonian." ¹⁷ For God does not dispatch His Son into the world that He should be judging the world, but that the world may be saved through Him."

¹⁷ For God does not dispatch His Son into the world that He should be judging the world, but that the world may be saved through Him." ¹⁸ He who is believing in Him is not being judged; yet he who is not believing has been judged already, for he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God."

²¹ Now he who is doing the truth is coming to the light that his acts may be made manifest, for they have been wrought in God."

³⁶ He who is believing in the Son has life eonian, yet he who is stubborn as to the Son shall not be seeing life, but the indignation of God is remaining on him."

¹⁰ Jesus answered and said to her, "If you were aware of the gratuity of God, and Who it is Who is saying to you, 'Give Me a drink,' you would request Him, and He would give you living water."

²¹ Jesus is saying to her, "Believe Me, woman, that, coming is an hour when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem shall you be worshiping the Father." ²² You are worshiping that of which you are not aware; we are worshiping that of which we are aware, for salvation is of the Jews."

²² You are worshiping that of which you are not aware; we are worshiping that of which we are aware, for salvation is of the Jews." ²³ But coming is the hour, and now is, when the true worshipers will be worshiping the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also is seeking such to be worshiping Him."

²¹ For even as the Father is rousing the dead and vivifying, thus the Son also is vivifying whom He will."

²⁴ Verily, verily, I am saying to you that he who is hearing My word and believing Him Who sends Me, has life eonian and is not coming into judging, but has proceeded out of death into life." ²⁵ Verily, verily, I am saying to you that coming is an hour, and now is, when the dead shall be hearing the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear shall be living."

²⁷ Do not work for the food which is perishing, but for the food which is remaining for life eonian, which the Son of Mankind will be giving to you, for this One God, the Father, seals." ²⁸ They said, then, to Him, "What may we be doing that we may be working the works of God? ²⁹ Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you may be believing in that One Whom He commissions."

³⁵ Jesus, then, said to them, "I am the Bread of life. He who is coming to Me should under no circumstances be hungering, and he who is believing in Me will under no circumstances ever be thirsting."

³⁷ All that which the Father is giving to Me shall be arriving to Me, and he who is coming to Me I should under no circumstances be casting out,

⁴⁰ For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who is beholding the Son and believing in Him may have life eonian, and I shall be raising him in the last day."

⁴⁴ No one can come to Me if ever the Father Who sends Me should not be drawing him. And I shall be raising him in the last day.

⁶³ The Spirit is that which is vivifying. The flesh is not benefiting anything. The declarations which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

⁶⁵ And He said, "Therefore have I declared to you that no one can be coming to Me if it should not be given him of the Father."

⁷ The world can not be hating you, yet Me it is hating, for I am testifying concerning it that its acts are wicked."

²³ He said, then, to them, "You are of that which is below; I am of that which is above. You are of this world; I am not of this world."

⁴⁴ You are of your father, the Adversary, and the desires of your father you are wanting to do. He was a man-killer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, for truth is not in him. Whenever he may be speaking a lie, he is speaking of his own, for he is a liar, and the father of it."

⁷ Jesus, then, said to them again, "Verily, verily, I am saying to you that I am the Door of the sheep."

⁹ I am the Door. Through Me if anyone should be entering, he shall be saved, and shall be entering and coming out and will be finding pasture." ¹⁰ The thief is not coming except that he should be stealing and sacrificing and destroying. I came that they may have life eonian, and have it superabundantly."

¹⁶ And other sheep have I which are not of this fold. Those also I must be leading, and they will be hearing My voice, and there will be one flock, one Shepherd."

²⁵ Jesus said to her, "I am the Resurrection and the Life. He who is believing in Me, even if he should be dying, shall be living." ²⁶ And everyone who is living and believing in Me, should by no means be dying for the eon. Are you believing this?

⁵² and not for the nation only, but that He may be gathering the scattered children of God also into one."

²⁶ If anyone should be serving Me, let him be following Me, and where I am, there My servant also shall be. And if anyone should be serving Me, the Father shall be honoring him."

³¹ Now is the judging of this world. Now shall the Chief of this world be cast out.

² And at the coming of dinner, the Adversary already having cast into the heart of Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, that he may be giving Him up,

²⁷ And after the morsel, then, Satan entered into that man. Jesus, then, is saying to him, "What you are doing, do more quickly."

³ And if I should be going and making ready a place for you, I am coming again and I will be taking you along to Myself, that where I am, you also may be."

⁶ Jesus is saying to him, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one is coming to the Father except through Me."

¹⁷ 17 the spirit of truth, which the world can not get, for it is not beholding it, neither is knowing it. Yet you know it, for it is remaining with you and will be in you." ¹⁸ I will not leave you bereaved; I am coming to you." ¹⁹ Still a little and the world is beholding Me no longer, yet you are beholding Me. Seeing that I am living, you also will be living." ²⁰ In that day you shall know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you." ²¹ He who has My precepts and is keeping them, he it is who is loving Me. Now he who is loving Me will be loved by My Father, and I shall be loving him and shall be disclosing Myself to him." ²² Judas (not Iscariot) is saying to Him, "Lord, and what has occurred that Thou art about to be disclosing Thyself to us and not to the world? ²³ Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone should be loving Me, he will be keeping My word, and My Father will be loving him, and We shall be coming to him and making an abode with him."

³⁰ No longer shall I be speaking much with you, for the Chief of the world is coming, and in Me it has not anything."

⁵ I am the Grapevine. You are the branches. He who is remaining in Me, and I in him, this one is bringing forth much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing."

¹⁹ If you were of the world, the world would be fond of its own. Now, seeing that you are not of the world, but I choose you out of the world, therefore the world is hating you."

¹¹ yet concerning judging, seeing that the Chief of this world has been judged."

³³ These things have I spoken to you that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But courage! I have conquered the world."

²¹ that they may all be one, according as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be in Us, that the world should be believing that Thou dost commission Me."

²¹ that they may all be one, according as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be in Us, that the world should be believing that Thou dost commission Me." ²² And I have given them the glory which Thou has given Me, that they may be one, according as We are One,

²² And I have given them the glory which Thou has given Me, that they may be one, according as We are One, ²³ I in them and Thou in Me, that they may be perfected in one, and that the world may know that Thou dost commission Me and dost love them according as Thou dost love Me."

²³ I in them and Thou in Me, that they may be perfected in one, and that the world may know that Thou dost commission Me and dost love them according as Thou dost love Me." ²⁴ Father, those whom Thou hast given Me, I will that, where I am, they also may be with Me, that they may be beholding My glory which Thou has given Me, for Thou lovest Me before the disruption of the world." ²⁵ Just Father, the world, also, knew Thee not, yet I knew Thee. And these know that Thou dost commission Me." ²⁶ And I make known to them Thy name, and I shall make it known, that the love with which Thou lovest Me may be in them, and I in them."

³⁹ For to you is the promise and to your children, and to all those afar, whosoever the Lord our God should be calling to Him."

²⁵ You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God covenanted with your fathers, saying to Abraham: And in your seed all the kindreds of the earth shall be blessed."

¹¹ This is the Stone that is being scorned by you builders, which is becoming the head of the corner." ¹² And there is no salvation in any other one, for neither is there any other name, given under heaven among men, in which we must be saved."

³ Now Peter said, "Ananias, wherefore does Satan fill your heart for you to falsify to the holy spirit and to embezzle from the price of the freehold?

³¹ Indeed, then, the ecclesia down the whole of Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being edified, and, going on in the fear of the Lord and the consolation of the holy spirit, multiplied."

³⁶ Now in Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which, being interpreted, is termed Dorcas ["Gazelle"]. This woman was full of good acts and alms which she did."

²⁸ Besides, he averred to them, "You are versed in the fact how illicit it is for a man who is a Jew to join or come to another tribe, and God shows me not to say that any man is contaminating or unclean."

³⁶ Of the word He dispatches to the sons of Israel, bringing the evangel of peace through Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all),

³⁹ and from all from which you could not be justified in the law of Moses, in this One everyone who is believing is being justified."

¹⁵ and saying, "Men! Why are you doing these things? We also are men, of like emotions as you, bringing the evangel to you to turn you back from these vain things to the living God, Who makes heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, ¹⁶ Who, in bygone generations, leaves all the nations to go their ways,

¹⁶ Who, in bygone generations, leaves all the nations to go their ways,

²⁷ Now coming along and gathering the ecclesia, they informed them of whatever God does with them, and that He opens to the nations a door of faith."

⁷ Now, there coming to be much questioning, rising, Peter said to them, "Men! Brethren! You are versed in the fact that from the days at the beginning God chooses among you, that through my mouth the nations are to hear the word of the evangel and believe." ⁸ And God, the Knower of hearts, testifies to them, giving the holy spirit according as to us also, ⁹ and in nothing discriminates between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith."

¹¹ But through the grace of the Lord Jesus we are believing, to be saved in a manner even as they."

¹⁴ Simon unfolds how God first visits the nations, to obtain out of them a people for His name."

¹⁴ And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, revering God, heard, whose heart the Lord opens up to heed what is spoken by Paul."

³¹ Now they say, "Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you shall be saved, you and your household."

³⁰ Indeed, then, condoning the times of ignorance, God is now charging mankind that all everywhere are to repent, ³¹ forasmuch as He assigns a day in which He is about to be judging the inhabited earth in righteousness by the Man Whom He specifies, tendering faith to all, raising Him from among the dead - "

³⁵ Now, composing the throng, the scribe is averring, "Men! Ephesians!What man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is sexton of the temple of the great Artemis and of that which fell from Zeus?

²¹ And He said to me, 'Go! For I shall be delegating you afar to the nations.'"

¹⁸ to open their eyes, to turn them about from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God, for them to get a pardon of sins and an allotment among those who have been hallowed by faith that is in Me.'"

²⁰ For this cause, then, I call for you, to see and speak to you. For on account of the expectation of Israel this chain is lying about me."

²⁴ Wherefore God gives them over, in the lusts of their hearts, to the uncleanness of dishonoring their bodies among themselves,

²⁸ And according as they do not test God, to have Him in recognition, God gives them over to a disqualified mind, to do that which is not befitting, ²⁹ filled with all injustice, wickedness, evil, greed, distended with envy, murder, strife, guile, depravity, whisperers, ³⁰ vilifiers, detesters of God, outragers, proud, ostentatious, inventors of evil things, stubborn to parents, ³¹ unintelligent, perfidious, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:" ³² those who, recognizing the just statute of God, that those committing such things are deserving of death, not only are doing them, but are endorsing, also, those who are committing them."

⁴ Or are you despising the riches of His kindness and forbearance and patience, being ignorant that the kindness of God is leading you to repentance?

²⁸ For not that which is apparent is the Jew, nor yet that which is apparent in flesh is circumcision;" ²⁹ but that which is hidden is the Jew, and circumcision is of the heart, in spirit, not in letter, whose applause is not of men, but of God."

⁹ What, then? Are we privileged? Undoubtedly not, for we previously charge both Jews and Greeks to be all under sin, ¹⁰ according as it is written, that "Not one is just- not even one." ¹¹ Not one is understanding. Not one is seeking out God. ¹² All avoid Him: at the same time they were useless. Not one is doing kindness: there is not even one!" ¹³ A sepulcher opened is their throat. With their tongues they defraud."The venom of asps is under their lips." ¹⁴ Whose mouth with imprecation and bitterness is crammed. ¹⁵ Sharp are their feet to shed blood. ¹⁶ Bruises and wretchedness are in their ways, ¹⁷ And the way of peace they do not know." ¹⁸ There is no fear of God in front of their eyes. ¹⁹ Now we are aware that, whatever the law is saying, it is speaking to those under the law, that every mouth may be barred, and the entire world may become subject to the just verdict of God, ²⁰ because, by works of law, no flesh at all shall be justified in His sight, for through law is the recognition of sin."

²² yet a righteousness of God through Jesus Christ's faith, for all, and on all who are believing, for there is no distinction,

²² yet a righteousness of God through Jesus Christ's faith, for all, and on all who are believing, for there is no distinction, ²³ for all sinned and are wanting of the glory of God.

²³ for all sinned and are wanting of the glory of God.

²³ for all sinned and are wanting of the glory of God. ²⁴ Being justified gratuitously in His grace, through the deliverance which is in Christ Jesus"

²⁴ Being justified gratuitously in His grace, through the deliverance which is in Christ Jesus"

²⁴ Being justified gratuitously in His grace, through the deliverance which is in Christ Jesus" ²⁵ (Whom God purposed for a Propitiatory shelter, through faith in His blood, for a display of His righteousness because of the passing over of the penalties of sins which occurred before in the forbearance of God),

²⁵ (Whom God purposed for a Propitiatory shelter, through faith in His blood, for a display of His righteousness because of the passing over of the penalties of sins which occurred before in the forbearance of God), ²⁶ toward the display of His righteousness in the current era, for Him to be just and a Justifier of the one who is of the faith of Jesus."

²⁶ toward the display of His righteousness in the current era, for Him to be just and a Justifier of the one who is of the faith of Jesus." ²⁷ Where, then, is boasting? It is debarred! Through what law?

²⁷ Where, then, is boasting? It is debarred! Through what law? ²⁸ Of works? No! But through faith's law. For we are reckoning a man to be justified by faith apart from works of law.

²⁸ Of works? No! But through faith's law. For we are reckoning a man to be justified by faith apart from works of law. ²⁹ Or is He the god of the Jews only? Is He not of the nations also? ³⁰ Yes, of the nations also, if so be that God is One, Who will be justifying the Circumcision out of faith and the Uncircumcision through faith."

² For if Abraham was justified by acts, he has something to boast in, but not toward God."

⁵ Yet to him who is not working, yet is believing on Him Who is justifying the irreverent, his faith is reckoned for righteousness."

¹⁶ Therefore it is of faith that it may accord with grace, for the promise to be confirmed to the entire seed, not to those of the law only, but to those also of the faith of Abraham, who is father of us all,

¹ Being, then, justified by faith, we may be having peace toward God, through our Lord, Jesus Christ, ² through Whom we have the access also, by faith, into this grace in which we stand, and we may be glorying in expectation of the glory of God."

⁶ For Christ, while we are still infirm, still in accord with the era, for the sake of the irreverent, died."

⁸ yet God is commending this love of His to us, seeing that, while we are still sinners, Christ died for our sakes." ⁹ Much rather, then, being now justified in His blood, we shall be saved from indignation, through Him." ¹⁰ For if, being enemies, we were conciliated to God through the death of His Son, much rather, being conciliated, we shall be saved in His life."

¹⁰ For if, being enemies, we were conciliated to God through the death of His Son, much rather, being conciliated, we shall be saved in His life."

¹² Therefore, even as through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and thus death passed through into all mankind, on which all sinned -" ¹³ for until law sin was in the world, yet sin is not being taken into account when there is no law;" ¹⁴ nevertheless death reigns from Adam unto Moses, over those also who do not sin in the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him Who is about to be." ¹⁵ But not as the offense, thus also the grace. For if, by the offense of the one, the many died, much rather the grace of God and the gratuity in grace, which is of the One Man, Jesus Christ, to the many superabounds." ¹⁶ And not as through one act of sinning is the gratuity. For, indeed, the judgment is out of one into condemnation, yet the grace is out of many offenses into a just award." ¹⁷ For if, by the offense of the one, death reigns through the one, much rather, those obtaining the superabundance of grace and the gratuity of righteousness shall be reigning in life through the One, Jesus Christ." ¹⁸ Consequently, then, as it was through one offense for all mankind for condemnation, thus also it is through one just award for all mankind for life's justifying." ¹⁹ For even as, through the disobedience of the one man, the many were constituted sinners, thus also, through the obedience of the One, the many shall be constituted just." ²⁰ Yet law came in by the way, that the offense should be increasing. Yet where sin increases, grace superexceeds, ²¹ that, even as Sin reigns in death, thus Grace also should be reigning through righteousness, for life eonian, through Jesus Christ, our Lord."

⁴ We, then, were entombed together with Him through baptism into death, that, even as Christ was roused from among the dead through the glory of the Father, thus we also should be walking in newness of life." ⁵ For if we have become planted together in the likeness of His death, nevertheless we shall be of the resurrection also, ⁶ knowing this, that our old humanity was crucified together with Him, that the body of Sin may be nullified, for us by no means to be still slaving for Sin,

¹² Let not Sin, then, be reigning in your mortal body, for you to be obeying its lusts."

¹⁸ For I am aware that good is not making its home in me (that is, in my flesh), for to will is lying beside me, yet to be effecting the ideal is not."

¹ Nothing, consequently, is now condemnation to those in Christ Jesus. Not according to flesh are they walking, but according to spirit, ² for the spirit's law of life in Christ Jesus frees you from the law of sin and death. ³ For what was impossible to the law, in which it was infirm through the flesh, did God, sending His own Son in the likeness of sin's flesh and concerning sin, He condemns sin in the flesh,

⁷ because the disposition of the flesh is enmity to God, for it is not subject to the law of God, for neither is it able."

⁷ because the disposition of the flesh is enmity to God, for it is not subject to the law of God, for neither is it able." ⁸ Now those who are in flesh are not able to please God. ⁹ Yet you are not in flesh, but in spirit, if so be that God's spirit is making its home in you. Now if anyone has not Christ's spirit, this one is not His." ¹⁰ Now if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is life because of righteousness." ¹¹ Now if the spirit of Him Who rouses Jesus from among the dead is making its home in you, He Who rouses Christ Jesus from among the dead will also be vivifying your mortal bodies because of His spirit making its home in you."

¹⁵ For you did not get slavery's spirit to fear again, but you got the spirit of sonship, in which we are crying, "Abba, Father!"

²⁶ Now, similarly, the spirit also is aiding our infirmity, for what we should be praying for, to accord with what must be, we are not aware, but the spirit itself is pleading for us with inarticulate groanings." ²⁷ Now He Who is searching the hearts is aware what is the disposition of the spirit, for in accord with God is it pleading for the saints."

²⁹ that, whom He foreknew, He designates beforehand, also, to be conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be Firstborn among many brethren."

⁴ who are Israelites, whose is the sonship and the glory and the covenants and the legislation and the divine service and the promises;" ⁵ whose are the fathers, and out of whom is the Christ according to the flesh, Who is over all, God be blessed for the eons. Amen!"

⁸ That is, that the children of the flesh, not these are the children of God, but the children of the promise is He reckoning for the seed."

¹¹ For, not as yet being born, nor putting into practice anything good or bad, that the purpose of God may be remaining as a choice, not out of acts, but of Him Who is calling,

¹⁵ For to Moses He is saying, "I shall be merciful to whomever I may be merciful, and I shall be pitying whomever I may be pitying." ¹⁶ Consequently, then, it is not of him who is willing, nor of him who is racing, but of God, the Merciful."

¹⁶ Consequently, then, it is not of him who is willing, nor of him who is racing, but of God, the Merciful."

²² Now if God, wanting to display His indignation and to make His powerful doings known, carries, with much patience, the vessels of indignation, adapted for destruction, ²³ it is that He should also be making known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He makes ready before for glory -"

⁹ that, if ever you should be avowing with your mouth the declaration that Jesus is Lord, and should be believing in your heart that God rouses Him from among the dead, you shall be saved." ¹⁰ For with the heart it is believed for righteousness, yet with the mouth it is avowed for salvation."

¹² For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same One is Lord of all, being rich for all who are invoking Him."

¹⁴ How, then, should they be invoking One in Whom they do not believe? Yet how should they be believing One of Whom they do not hear? Yet how should they be hearing apart from one heralding?

¹⁷ Consequently, faith is out of tidings, yet the tidings through a declaration of Christ."

⁵ Thus, then, in the current era also, there has come to be a remnant according to the choice of grace." ⁶ Now if it is in grace, it is no longer out of works, else the grace is coming to be no longer grace. Now, if it is out of works, it is no longer grace, else the work is no longer work."

⁶ Now if it is in grace, it is no longer out of works, else the grace is coming to be no longer grace. Now, if it is out of works, it is no longer grace, else the work is no longer work."

³⁰ For even as you once were stubborn toward God, yet now were shown mercy at their stubbornness,

² and not to be configured to this eon, but to be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for you to be testing what is the will of God, good and well pleasing and perfect."

¹⁴ but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and be making no provision for the lusts of the flesh."

⁸ For I am saying that Christ has become the Servant of the Circumcision, for the sake of the truth of God, to confirm the patriarchal promises." ⁹ Yet the nations are to glorify God for His mercy, according as it is written, "Therefore I shall be acclaiming Thee among the nations,And to Thy name shall I be playing music." ¹⁰ And again he is saying, "Be merry, ye nations, with His people!" ¹¹ And again he is saying, "Praise the Lord, all the nations,And "let all the peoples laud Him." ¹² And again Isaiah is saying, there will be "the root of Jesse, And He Who is rising to Chief of the nations: On Him will the nations rely."

²⁰ Now the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet swiftly. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you!

²⁹ so that no flesh at all should be boasting in God's sight. ³⁰ Yet you, of Him, are in Christ Jesus, Who became to us wisdom from God, besides righteousness and holiness and deliverance,

³⁰ Yet you, of Him, are in Christ Jesus, Who became to us wisdom from God, besides righteousness and holiness and deliverance, ³¹ that, according as it is written, He who is boasting, in the Lord let him be boasting."

⁹ For God's fellow workers are we. God's farm, God's building, are you."

⁹ For God's fellow workers are we. God's farm, God's building, are you." ¹⁰ According to the grace of God which is being granted to me, as a wise foreman I lay a foundation, yet another is building on it. Yet let each one beware how he is building on it." ¹¹ For other foundation can no one lay beside that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ."

¹⁶ Are you not aware that you are a temple of God and the spirit of God is making its home in you?

¹⁶ Are you not aware that you are a temple of God and the spirit of God is making its home in you? ¹⁷ If anyone is corrupting the temple of God, God will be corrupting him, for the temple of God is holy, which you are."

⁷ For who is making you to discriminate? Now what have you which you did not obtain? Now if you obtained it also, why are you boasting as though not obtaining?

¹⁰ And undoubtedly it is not as to the paramours of this world, or the greedy and extortionate, or idolaters, else, consequently, you ought to come out of the world."

⁹ Or are you not aware that the unjust shall not be enjoying the allotment of God's kingdom? Be not deceived. Neither paramours, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor catamites, nor sodomites, ¹⁰ nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards; no revilers, no extortioners shall be enjoying the allotment of God's kingdom." ¹¹ And some of you were these, but you are bathed off, but you are hallowed, but you were justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and by the spirit of our God."

¹¹ And some of you were these, but you are bathed off, but you are hallowed, but you were justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and by the spirit of our God."

¹⁹ Or are you not aware that your body is a temple of the holy spirit in you, which you have from God, and you are not your own?

⁴ Then, concerning the feeding on the idol sacrifices: We are aware that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God except One." ⁵ For even if so be that there are those being termed gods, whether in heaven or on earth, even as there are many gods and many lords, ⁶ nevertheless for us there is one God, the Father, out of Whom all is, and we for Him, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through Whom all is, and we through Him."

⁶ nevertheless for us there is one God, the Father, out of Whom all is, and we for Him, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through Whom all is, and we through Him."

¹⁹ What, then, am I averring? That an idol sacrifice is anything? Or that an idol is anything? ²⁰ But that that which the nations are sacrificing, they are sacrificing to demons and not to God. Now I do not want you to become participants with the demons."

² You are aware that when you were of the nations, you were led away to the voiceless idols, as ever you were led."

¹² For even as the body is one and has many members, yet all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, thus also is the Christ." ¹³ For in one spirit also we all are baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and all are made to imbibe one spirit."

¹³ For in one spirit also we all are baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and all are made to imbibe one spirit."

²⁸ whom also God, indeed, placed in the ecclesia, first, apostles, second, prophets, third, teachers, thereupon powers, thereupon graces of healing, supports, pilotage, species of languages."

⁴⁵ If there is a soulish body, there is a spiritual also. Thus it is written also, The first man, Adam, "became a living soul:the last Adam a vivifying Spirit."

⁴ in whom the god of this eon blinds the apprehensions of the unbelieving so that the illumination of the evangel of the glory of Christ, Who is the Image of the invisible God, does not irradiate them."

⁵ Now He Who produces us for this same longing is God, Who is also giving us the earnest of the spirit."

¹⁴ For the love of Christ is constraining us, judging this, that, if One died for the sake of all, consequently all died."

¹⁷ So that, if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: the primitive passed by. Lo! there has come new!" ¹⁸ Yet all is of God, Who conciliates us to Himself through Christ, and is giving us the dispensation of the conciliation, ¹⁹ how that God was in Christ, conciliating the world to Himself, not reckoning their offenses to them, and placing in us the word of the conciliation." ²⁰ For Christ, then, are we ambassadors, as of God entreating through us. We are beseeching for Christ's sake, "Be conciliated to God!"

²⁰ For Christ, then, are we ambassadors, as of God entreating through us. We are beseeching for Christ's sake, "Be conciliated to God!" ²¹ For the One not knowing sin, He makes to be a sin offering for our sakes that we may be becoming God's righteousness in Him."

¹⁶ Now what concurrence has a temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God, according as God said, that I will be making My home and will be walking in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people."

¹ Having, then, these promises, beloved, we should be cleansing ourselves from every pollution of flesh and spirit, completing holiness in the fear of God."

⁸ Now God is able to lavish all grace on you, that, having all contentment in everything always, you may be superabounding in every good work,

¹⁴ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the communion of the holy spirit be with you all! Amen!

⁴ Who gives Himself for our sins, so that He might extricate us out of the present wicked eon, according to the will of our God and Father,

⁹ and, knowing the grace which is being given to me, James and Cephas and John, who are supposed to be pillars, give to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we, indeed, are to be for the nations, yet they for the Circumcision-"

¹⁵ We, who by nature are Jews, and not sinners of the nations,

¹⁵ We, who by nature are Jews, and not sinners of the nations, ¹⁶ having perceived that a man is not being justified by works of law, except alone through the faith of Christ Jesus, we also believe in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by the faith of Christ and not by works of law, seeing that by works of law shall no flesh at all be justified."

²⁰ With Christ have I been crucified, yet I am living; no longer I, but living in me is Christ. Now that which I am now living in flesh, I am living in faith that is of the Son of God, Who loves me, and gives Himself up for me."

¹⁰ For whoever are of works of law are under a curse, for it written that, Accursed is everyone who is not remaining in all things written in the scroll of the law to do them."

¹⁴ that the blessing of Abraham may be coming to the nations in Christ Jesus, that we may be obtaining the promise of the spirit through faith."

¹⁶ Now to Abraham the promises were declared, and to his Seed. He is not saying "And to seeds,as of many, but as of One: And to "your Seed,which is Christ." ¹⁷ Now this am I saying: a covenant, having been ratified before by God, the law, having come four hundred and thirty years afterward, does not invalidate,

²² But the scripture locks up all together under sin, that the promise out of Jesus Christ's faith may be given to those who are believing."

²⁶ for you are all sons of God, through faith in Christ Jesus." ²⁷ For whoever are baptized into Christ, put on Christ, ²⁸ in Whom there is no Jew nor yet Greek, there is no slave nor yet free, there is no male and female, for you all are one in Christ Jesus."

²⁸ in Whom there is no Jew nor yet Greek, there is no slave nor yet free, there is no male and female, for you all are one in Christ Jesus."

⁶ Now, seeing that you are sons, God delegates the spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying "Abba! Father!"

⁸ But then, indeed, having no perception of God, you were slaves of those who, by nature, are not gods."

⁸ But then, indeed, having no perception of God, you were slaves of those who, by nature, are not gods." ⁹ Yet now, knowing God, yet rather being known by God, how are you turning back again to the infirm and poor elements for which you want to slave again anew?

²⁶ Yet the Jerusalem above is free, who is mother of us all." ²⁷ For it is written, "Be glad, barren one, who art not bringing forth! Burst forth and implore, thou who art not travailing! For many are the children of the desolate, Rather than of her who has the husband." ²⁸ Now you, brethren, as Isaac, are children of promise." ²⁹ But even as then, the one generated according to flesh persecuted the one according to spirit, thus also it is now." ³⁰ But what is the scripture saying? Cast out this maid and her son, for by no means shall the son of the maid be enjoying the allotment with the son of the free woman." ³¹ Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of the maid, but of the free woman."

¹⁶ Now I am saying, Walk in spirit, and you should under no circumstances be consummating the lust of the flesh." ¹⁷ For the flesh is lusting against the spirit, yet the spirit against the flesh. Now these are opposing one another, lest you should be doing whatever you may want." ¹⁸ Now, if you are led by spirit, you are not still under law." ¹⁹ Now apparent are the works of the flesh, which are adultery, prostitution, uncleanness, wantonness, ²⁰ idolatry, enchantment, enmities, strife, jealousies, furies, factions, dissensions, sects, ²¹ envies, murders, drunkennesses, revelries, and the like of these, which, I am predicting to you, according as I predicted also, that those committing such things shall not be enjoying the allotment of the kingdom of God." ²² Now the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law." ²⁴ Now those of Christ Jesus crucify the flesh together with its passions, and lusts."

¹⁰ Consequently, then, as we have occasion, we are working for the good of all, yet specially for the family of faith."

¹² Whoever are wanting to put on a fair face in the flesh, these are compelling you to circumcise only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ Jesus."

¹⁵ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is anything, but a new creation."

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who blesses us with every spiritual blessing among the celestials, in Christ, ⁴ according as He chooses us in Him before the disruption of the world, we to be holy and flawless in His sight,

⁷ in Whom we are having the deliverance through His blood, the forgiveness of offenses in accord with the riches of His grace,

¹⁹ and what the transcendent greatness of His power for us who are believing, in accord with the operation of the might of His strength,

¹⁹ and what the transcendent greatness of His power for us who are believing, in accord with the operation of the might of His strength, ²⁰ which is operative in the Christ, rousing Him from among the dead and seating Him at His right hand among the celestials,

¹ And you, being dead to your offenses and sins, ² in which once you walked, in accord with the eon of this world, in accord with the chief of the jurisdiction of the air, the spirit now operating in the sons of stubbornness " ³ (among whom we also all behaved ourselves once in the lusts of our flesh, doing the will of the flesh and of the comprehension, and were, in our nature, children of indignation, even as the rest), ⁴ yet God, being rich in mercy, because of His vast love with which He loves us" ⁵ (we also being dead to the offenses and the lusts), vivifies us together in Christ (in grace are you saved!)"

⁵ (we also being dead to the offenses and the lusts), vivifies us together in Christ (in grace are you saved!)" ⁶ and rouses us together and seats us together among the celestials, in Christ Jesus, ⁷ that, in the oncoming eons, He should be displaying the transcendent riches of His grace in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus." ⁸ For in grace, through faith, are you saved, and this is not out of you; it is God's approach present,

¹⁰ For His achievement are we, being created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God makes ready beforehand, that we should be walking in them."

¹² that you were, in that era, apart from Christ, being alienated from the citizenship of Israel, and guests of the promise covenants, having no expectation, and without God in the world." ¹³ Yet now, in Christ Jesus, you, who once are far off, are become near by the blood of Christ." ¹⁴ For He is our Peace, Who makes both one, and razes the central wall of the barrier" ¹⁵ (the enmity in His flesh), nullifying the law of precepts in decrees, that He should be creating the two, in Himself, into one new humanity, making peace;" ¹⁶ and should be reconciling both in one body to God through the cross, killing the enmity in it." ¹⁷ And, coming, He brings the evangel of peace to you, those afar, and peace to those near,

¹⁹ Consequently, then, no longer are you guests and sojourners, but are fellow-citizens of the saints and belong to God's family, ²⁰ being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, the capstone of the corner being Christ Jesus Himself, ²¹ in Whom the entire building, being connected together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord:" ²² in Whom you, also, are being built together for God's dwelling place, in spirit."

⁵ which, in other generations, is not made known to the sons of humanity as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets): in spirit"

⁵ which, in other generations, is not made known to the sons of humanity as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets): in spirit" ⁶ the nations are to be joint enjoyers of an allotment, and a joint body, and joint partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus, through the evangel"

⁶ the nations are to be joint enjoyers of an allotment, and a joint body, and joint partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus, through the evangel" ⁷ of which I became the dispenser, in accord with the gratuity of the grace of God, which is granted to me in accord with His powerful operation." ⁸ To me, less than the least of all saints, was granted this grace: to bring the evangel of the untraceable riches of Christ to the nations,

⁸ To me, less than the least of all saints, was granted this grace: to bring the evangel of the untraceable riches of Christ to the nations,

¹² in Whom we have boldness and access with confidence, through His faith."

¹⁴ On this behalf am I bowing my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, ¹⁵ after Whom every kindred in the heavens and on earth is being named,

¹⁷ Christ to dwell in your hearts through faith, that you, having been rooted and grounded in love,

²¹ to Him be the glory in the ecclesia and in Christ Jesus for all the generations of the eon of the eons! Amen!

¹ I am entreating you, then, I, the prisoner in the Lord, to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

⁴ one body and one spirit, according as you were called also with one expectation of your calling;"

¹¹ And the same One gives these, indeed, as apostles, yet these as prophets, yet these as evangelists, yet these as pastors and teachers, ¹² toward the adjusting of the saints for the work of dispensing, for the upbuilding of the body of Christ, ¹³ unto the end that we should all attain to the unity of the faith and of the realization of the son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature of the complement of the Christ,

¹³ unto the end that we should all attain to the unity of the faith and of the realization of the son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature of the complement of the Christ, ¹⁴ that we may by no means still be minors, surging hither and thither and being carried about by every wind of teaching, by human caprice, by craftiness with a view to the systematizing of the deception." ¹⁵ Now, being true, in love we should be making all grow into Him, Who is the Head - Christ" ¹⁶ out of Whom the entire body, being articulated together and united through every assimilation of the supply, in accord with the operation in measure of each one's part, is making for the growth of the body, for the upbuilding of itself in love."

¹⁶ out of Whom the entire body, being articulated together and united through every assimilation of the supply, in accord with the operation in measure of each one's part, is making for the growth of the body, for the upbuilding of itself in love." ¹⁷ This, then, I am saying and attesting in the Lord: By no means are you still to be walking according as those of the nations also are walking, in the vanity of their mind, ¹⁸ their comprehension being darkened, being estranged from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the callousness of their hearts,

¹⁸ their comprehension being darkened, being estranged from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the callousness of their hearts, ¹⁹ who, being past feeling, in greed give themselves up with wantonness to all uncleanness as a vocation."

²² to put off from you, as regards your former behavior, the old humanity which is corrupted in accord with its seductive desires,

²⁴ and to put on the new humanity which, in accord with God, is being created in righteousness and benignity of the truth."

⁶ Let no one be seducing you with empty words, for because of these things the indignation of God is coming on the sons of stubbornness."

⁸ for you were once darkness, yet now you are light in the Lord."

¹⁴ Wherefore He is saying, 'Rouse! O drowsy one, and rise from among the dead, and Christ shall dawn upon you!'"

¹² for it is not ours to wrestle with blood and flesh, but with the sovereignties, with the authorities, with the world-mights of this darkness, with the spiritual forces of wickedness among the celestials."

¹⁸ During every prayer and petition be praying on every occasion (in spirit being vigilant also for it with all perseverance and petition concerning all the saints,

⁶ having this same confidence, that He Who undertakes a good work among you, will be performing it until the day of Jesus Christ:"

²⁹ for to you it is graciously granted, for Christ's sake, not only to be believing on Him, but to be suffering for His sake also,

¹³ for it is God Who is operating in you to will as well as to work for the sake of His delight.

³ for we are the circumcision who are offering divine service in the spirit of God, and are glorying in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in flesh."

²⁰ For our realm is inherent in the heavens, out of which we are awaiting a Saviour also, the Lord, Jesus Christ,

⁵ because of the expectation reserved for you in the heavens, which you hear before in the word of truth of the evangel,

¹⁰ you to walk worthily of the Lord for all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing in the realization of God;"

¹² at the same time giving thanks to the Father, Who makes you competent for a part of the allotment of the saints, in light, ¹³ Who rescues us out of the jurisdiction of Darkness, and transports us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, ¹⁴ in Whom we are having deliverance, the pardon of sins,

¹⁸ And He is the Head of the body, the ecclesia, Who is Sovereign, Firstborn from among the dead, that in all He may be becoming first,

²⁰ and through Him to reconcile all to Him (making peace through the blood of His cross), through Him, whether those on the earth or those in the heavens."

²⁰ and through Him to reconcile all to Him (making peace through the blood of His cross), through Him, whether those on the earth or those in the heavens." ²¹ And you, being once estranged and enemies in comprehension, by wicked acts, yet now He reconciles"

²¹ And you, being once estranged and enemies in comprehension, by wicked acts, yet now He reconciles" ²² by His body of flesh, through His death, to present you holy and flawless and unimpeachable in His sight,

²⁷ to whom God wills to make known what are the glorious riches of this secret among the nations, which is: Christ among you, the expectation of glory"

¹⁰ And you are complete in Him, Who is the Head of every sovereignty and authority, ¹¹ in Whom you were circumcised also with a circumcision not made by hands, in the stripping off of the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ."

¹¹ in Whom you were circumcised also with a circumcision not made by hands, in the stripping off of the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ." ¹² Being entombed together with Him in baptism, in Whom you were roused together also through faith in the operation of God,

¹² Being entombed together with Him in baptism, in Whom you were roused together also through faith in the operation of God,

¹² Being entombed together with Him in baptism, in Whom you were roused together also through faith in the operation of God, ¹³ Who rouses Him from among the dead, you also being dead to the offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He vivifies us together jointly with Him, dealing graciously with all our offenses,

¹³ Who rouses Him from among the dead, you also being dead to the offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He vivifies us together jointly with Him, dealing graciously with all our offenses,

¹³ Who rouses Him from among the dead, you also being dead to the offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He vivifies us together jointly with Him, dealing graciously with all our offenses, ¹⁴ erasing the handwriting of the decrees against us, which was hostile to us, and has taken it away out of the midst, nailing it to the cross,

¹⁴ erasing the handwriting of the decrees against us, which was hostile to us, and has taken it away out of the midst, nailing it to the cross,

²⁰ If, then, you died together with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as living in the world, are you subject to decrees:"

¹ If, then, you were roused together with Christ, be seeking that which is above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God."

¹ If, then, you were roused together with Christ, be seeking that which is above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God." ² Be disposed to that which is above, not to that on the earth,

² Be disposed to that which is above, not to that on the earth, ³ for you died, and your life is hid together with Christ in God."

³ for you died, and your life is hid together with Christ in God." ⁴ Whenever Christ, our Life, should be manifested, then you also shall be manifested together with Him in glory."

⁶ because of which the indignation of God is coming on the sons of stubborness ⁷ among whom you also once walked, when you lived in these things."

¹⁰ and putting on the young, which is being renewed into recognition, to accord with the Image of the One Who creates it, ¹¹ wherein there is no Greek and Jew, Circumcision and Uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, freeman, but all and in all is Christ."

¹⁵ And let the peace of Christ be arbitrating in your hearts, for which you were called also in one body; and become thankful."

⁵ not in lustful passion even as the nations also who are not acquainted with God.

¹³ Now we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are reposing, lest you may sorrow according as the rest, also, who have no expectation."

⁹ who shall incur the justice of eonian extermination from the face of the Lord, and from the glory of His strength"

¹² so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, in accord with the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ."

¹³ Now we ought to be thanking God always concerning you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, seeing that God prefers you from the beginning for salvation, in holiness of the spirit and faith in the truth,

¹⁶ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God, our Father, Who loves us, and is giving us an eonian consolation and a good expectation in grace, ¹⁷ be consoling your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

¹ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, according to the injunction of God, our Saviour, and the Lord Jesus Christ, our Expectation,

¹⁴ Yet the grace of our Lord overwhelms, with faith and love in Christ Jesus."

¹⁶ But therefore was I shown mercy, that in me, the foremost, Jesus Christ should be displaying all His patience, for a pattern of those who are about to be believing on Him for life eonian." ¹⁷ Now to the King of the eons, the incorruptible, invisible, only, and wise God, be honor and glory for the eons of the eons! Amen!"

¹⁰ but (what is becoming to women professing a reverence for God) with good works.

⁶ Yet she who is a prodigal, though living, is dead."

¹⁰ attested by ideal acts: if she nourishes children, if she is hospitable, if she washes the saints' feet, if she relieves the afflicted, if she follows up with every good work."

²⁵ Similarly the ideal acts also are taken for granted, and those having it otherwise can not be hid."

⁹ Now, those intending to be rich are falling into a trial and a trap and the many foolish and harmful desires which are swamping men in extermination and destruction."

¹⁸ to be doing good acts, to be rich in ideal acts, to be liberal contributors,

⁹ Who saves us and calls us with a holy calling, not in accord with our acts, but in accord with His own purpose and the grace which is given to us in Christ Jesus before times eonian,

²¹ If, then, anyone should ever be purging himself from these, he will be a utensil for honor, hallowed, and useful to the Owner, made ready for every good act."

¹⁷ that the man of God may be equipped, fitted out for every good act."

¹⁰ for Demas, loving the current eon, forsook me and went to Thessalonica, Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia."

⁷ tendering yourself a model of ideal acts, in teaching with uncorruptness, gravity,

¹¹ For the saving grace of God made its advent to all humanity,

¹⁴ Who gives Himself for us, that He should be redeeming us from all lawlessness and be cleansing for Himself a people to be about Him, zealous for ideal acts."

¹ Remind them to be subject to sovereignties, to authorities; to be yielding, and to be ready for every good work,

³ For we also were once foolish, stubborn, deceived, slaves of various desires and gratifications, leading a life in malice and envy, detestable, hating one another."

³ For we also were once foolish, stubborn, deceived, slaves of various desires and gratifications, leading a life in malice and envy, detestable, hating one another." ⁴ Yet when the kindness and fondness for humanity of our Saviour, God, made its advent,

⁴ Yet when the kindness and fondness for humanity of our Saviour, God, made its advent,

⁴ Yet when the kindness and fondness for humanity of our Saviour, God, made its advent, ⁵ not for works which are wrought in righteousness which we do, but according to His mercy, He saves us, through the bath of renascence and renewal of holy spirit,

⁵ not for works which are wrought in righteousness which we do, but according to His mercy, He saves us, through the bath of renascence and renewal of holy spirit,

⁵ not for works which are wrought in righteousness which we do, but according to His mercy, He saves us, through the bath of renascence and renewal of holy spirit, ⁶ which He pours out on us richly through Jesus Christ, our Saviour, ⁷ that, being justified in that One's grace, we may be becoming enjoyers, in expectation, of the allotment of life eonian." ⁸ Faithful is the saying, and I am intending you to be insistent concerning these things, that those who have believed God may be concerned to preside for ideal acts. These things are ideal and beneficial for humanity."

¹⁴ Now let those who are ours also be learning to preside over ideal acts for necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful."

³ For this One is counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by as much as He Who constructs it has more honor than the house." ⁴ For every house is constructed by someone, yet He Who constructs all is God."

¹⁵ For we have not a Chief Priest not able to sympathize with our infirmities, but One Who has been tried in all respects like us, apart from sin." ¹⁶ We may be coming, then, with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may be obtaining mercy and finding grace for opportune help."

¹⁸ that by two immutable matters, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong consolation, who are fleeing for refuge to lay hold of the expectation lying before us,

² to whom Abraham parts a tithe also, from all; being first, indeed, translated king of righteousness,yet thereupon king of Salem, also, which is "king of Peace";"

¹⁶ Who has not come to be according to the law of a fleshy precept, but according to the power of an indissoluble life."

¹⁹ for the law perfects nothing, yet it is the superinduction of a better expectation, through which we are drawing near to God."

¹³ In saying "new,He has made the former old. Now that which is growing old and decrepit is near its disappearance."

⁹ which is a parable for the present period, according to which both approach presents and sacrifices are being offered, which can not make the one offering divine service perfect as to the conscience, ¹⁰ only in foods and drinks and baptizings excelling, and just statutes for the flesh, lying on them unto the period of reformation."

¹⁸ Whence neither the first has been dedicated apart from blood.

²³ It was necessary, then, for the examples, indeed, of that in the heavens to be cleansed with these, yet the celestial things themselves with better sacrifices than these."

¹ For the law, having a shadow of the impending good things, not the selfsame image of the matters, they, with their same sacrifices which they are offering year by year, are never able to perfect to a finality those approaching." ² Else would they not cease being offered, because those offering divine service, having been once cleansed, are having no longer any consciousness of sins? ³ But in them there is a recollection of sins year by year; ⁴ for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and of he-goats to be eliminating sins. ⁵ Wherefore, entering into the world, He is saying, Sacrifice and approach present Thou dost not will, Yet a body dost Thou adapt to Me." ⁶ In ascent approaches and those concerning sin Thou dost not delight. ⁷ Then said I, "Lo! I am arriving-In the summary of the scroll it is written concerning Me-To do Thy will, O God." ⁸ Further up, when saying that "Sacrifice and approach present and ascent approaches and those concerning sin Thou dost not will, neither dost Thou delight in them(which are being offered according to law), ⁹ then He has declared, "Lo! I am arriving to do Thy will, O God!He is despatching the first, that He should be establishing the second." ¹⁰ By which will we are hallowed through the approach present of the body of Jesus Christ once for all time.

¹⁹ Having then, brethren, boldness for the entrance of the holy places by the blood of Jesus,

¹⁹ Having then, brethren, boldness for the entrance of the holy places by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰ by a recently slain and living way which He dedicates for us, through the curtain, that is, His flesh,

²⁰ by a recently slain and living way which He dedicates for us, through the curtain, that is, His flesh, ²¹ and a great Priest over the house of God, ²² we may be approaching with a true heart, in the assurance of faith, with hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience, and a body bathed in clean water."

²⁴ And we may be considering one another to incite to love and ideal acts,

¹³ In faith died all these, not being requited with the promises, but perceiving them ahead and saluting them, and avowing that they are strangers and expatriates on the earth. "

³⁴ quench the power of fire, fled from the edge of the sword, were invigorated from infirmity, became strong in battle, rout the camps of aliens,

²² But you have come to mount Zion, and the city of the living God, celestial Jerusalem, and to ten thousand messengers, ²³ to a universal convocation, and to the ecclesia of the firstborn, registered in the heavens, and to God, the Judge of all, and to the spirits of the just perfected, ²⁴ and to Jesus, the Mediator of a fresh covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling which is speaking better than Abel."

²⁰ Now may the God of peace, Who is leading up our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, from among the dead by the blood of the eonian covenant, ²¹ be adapting you to every good work to do His will, doing in us what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to Whom be glory for the eons of the eons. Amen!"

⁷ For let not that man be surmising that he shall be obtaining anything from the Lord -

¹⁶ Be not deceived, my beloved brethren!" ¹⁷ All good giving and every perfect gratuity is from above, descending from the Father of lights, in Whom there is no mutation or shadow from revolving motion." ¹⁸ By intention, He teems forth us by the word of truth, for us to be some firstfruit of His own creatures."

⁹ With it we are blessing the Lord and Father, and with it we are cursing men who have come to be in accord with God's likeness."

¹ Whence are the battles and whence the fightings among you? Are they not hence: from your gratifications warring in your members? ² You are coveting and have not. You are murdering and are jealous, and you can not encounter it. You are fighting and battling, and you have not, because of not requesting." ³ You are requesting and not obtaining, because you are requesting evilly, that you should be spending it on your gratifications." ⁴ Adulterers and adulteresses! Are you not aware that the friendship of this world is enmity with God? Whosoever, then should intend to be a friend of the world is constituted an enemy of God."

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who, according to His vast mercy, regenerates us into a living expectation, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead,

⁵ who are garrisoned by the power of God, through faith, for salvation ready to be revealed in the last era,

¹² To whom it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to you they dispensed them, of which you were now informed through those who are bringing the evangel to you by holy spirit dispatched from heaven, into which messengers are yearning to peer."

¹⁴ As obedient children, not configuring to the former desires, in your ignorance,

¹⁷ And if you are invoking the Father, Who is judging impartially according to each one's work, you may behave, for the time of your sojourn, with fear, ¹⁸ being aware that not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, were you ransomed from your vain behavior, handed down by tradition from the fathers, ¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a flawless and unspotted lamb,

²¹ Who rouses Him from among the dead and is giving Him glory, so that your faith and expectation is to be in God."

⁴ Whom approaching, a living Stone, having been rejected indeed by men, yet chosen by God, held in honor, ⁵ you, also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, into a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, most acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. "

⁷ To you, then, who are believing, is the honor, yet to the unbelieving: "A Stone which is rejected by the builders, this came to be for the head of the corner, ⁸ and a stumbling stone and a snare rock; who are stumbling also at the word, being stubborn, to which they were appointed also."

¹⁰ who once were "not a peopleyet now are the people of God, who "have not enjoyed mercy,yet now are "being shown mercy." ¹¹ Beloved, I am entreating you, as sojourners and expatriates, to be abstaining from the fleshly lusts which are warring against the soul, ¹² having your behavior among the nations ideal, that in that in which they are speaking against you as of evildoers, by being spectators of ideal acts they should be glorifying God in the day of visitation."

¹⁵ yet hallow the Lord Christ in your hearts, ever ready with a defense for everyone who is demanding from you an account concerning the expectation in you, but with meekness and fear,

¹⁸ seeing that Christ also, for our sakes, once died concerning sins, the just for the sake of the unjust, that He may be leading us to God; being put to death, indeed, in flesh, yet vivified in spirit,

¹ Christ, then, having suffered for our sakes in flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same thought, for he who is suffering in flesh has ceased his sins, ² 2 by no means still to spend the rest of his lifetime in the flesh in human desires, but in the will of God."

² 2 by no means still to spend the rest of his lifetime in the flesh in human desires, but in the will of God." ³ For sufficient is the time which has passed by to have effected the intention of the nations, having gone on in wantonness, lusts, debauches, revelries, drinking bouts, and illicit idolatries,

³ For sufficient is the time which has passed by to have effected the intention of the nations, having gone on in wantonness, lusts, debauches, revelries, drinking bouts, and illicit idolatries,

¹⁴ having the distended eyes of an adulteress, and that do not stop from sin, luring unstable souls, having a heart exercised by greed, children of a curse."

¹⁸ For, uttering pompous vanity, they are luring by the lusts of the flesh, in wantonness, those who are scarcely fleeing from those who are behaving with deception;"

⁷ Yet if we should be walking in the light as He is in the light, we are having fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, is cleansing us from every sin." ⁸ If we should be saying that we have no sin we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us." ⁹ If we should be avowing our sins, He is faithful and just that He may be pardoning us our sins and should be cleansing us from all injustice." ¹⁰ If we should be saying that we have not sinned, we are making Him a liar, and His word is not in us."

¹ My little children, these things am I writing to you that you may not be sinning. And if anyone should be sinning, we have an Entreater with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Just." ² And He is the propitiatory shelter concerned with our sins, yet not concerned with ours only, but concerned with the whole world also."

⁶ In this we know that we are in Him: he who is saying that he is remaining in Him ought also himself to be walking according as He walks.

⁸ Again, a new precept am I writing to you, which is true in Him and in you, for the darkness is passing by, and the true light already is appearing."

¹⁵ Be not loving the world, neither that which is in the world. If ever anyone is loving the world, the love of the Father is not in him, ¹⁶ for everything that is in the world, the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of living, is not of the Father, but is of the world."

¹⁶ for everything that is in the world, the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of living, is not of the Father, but is of the world." ¹⁷ And the world is passing by, and its desire, yet he who is doing the will of God is remaining for the eon."

¹ Perceive what manner of love the Father has given us, that we may be called children of God! And we are! Therefore the world does not know us, for it did not know Him."

³ And everyone who has this expectation in Him is purifying himself, according as He is pure."

⁸ Yet he who is doing sin is of the Adversary, for from the beginning is the Adversary sinning. For this was the Son of God manifested, that He should be annulling the acts of the Adversary."

¹⁰ In this are apparent the children of God and the children of the Adversary: everyone who is not doing righteousness is not of God, and who is not loving his brother."

¹⁴ We are aware that we have proceeded out of death into life, for we are loving our brethren. He who is not loving is remaining in death."

²⁴ And he who is keeping His precepts is remaining in Him, and He in him. And in this we know that He is remaining in us, by the spirit which He gives us."

⁴ You are of God, little children, and you have conquered them, for greater is He Who is in you than he who is in the world."

¹⁰ In this is love, not that we love God, but that He loves us, and dispatches His son, a propitiatory shelter concerned with our sins." ¹¹ Beloved, if thus God loves us, we also ought to be loving one another." ¹² No one has ever gazed upon God. If we should be loving one anohter, God is remaining in us, and His love is perfected in us." ¹³ In this we know that we are remaining in Him, and He in us, for He has given us of His spirit."

¹³ In this we know that we are remaining in Him, and He in us, for He has given us of His spirit." ¹⁴ And we have gazed upon Him, and are testifying that the Father has dispatched the Son, the Saviour of the world." ¹⁵ Whoever should be avowing that Jesus is the Son of God, God is remaining in him, and he in God." ¹⁶ And we know and believe the love which God has in us. God is love, and he who is remaining in love is remaining in God, and God is remaining in him."

¹⁶ And we know and believe the love which God has in us. God is love, and he who is remaining in love is remaining in God, and God is remaining in him." ¹⁷ In this is love perfected with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judging, seeing that, according as He is, so are we also in this world." ¹⁸ Fear is not in love, but perfect love is casting out fear, for fear has chastening. Now he who is fearing is not perfected in love." ¹⁹ We are loving God, for He first loves us."

⁴ for all that is begotten of God is conquering the world. And this is the conquest that conquers the world: our faith.

¹⁰ He who is believing in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; he who is not believing God has made Him a liar, for he has not believed in the testimony which God has testified concerning His Son." ¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God gives us life eonian, and this life is in His Son." ¹² He who has the Son has the life; he who has not the Son of God has not the life.

¹⁹ We are aware that we are of God, and the whole world is lying in the wicked one."

¹⁶ These are murmurers, complainers, going according to their desires, and their mouth is speaking pompous things, marveling at the aspect of things, on behalf of benefit." ¹⁷ Yet you, beloved, remember the declarations which have been declared before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, ¹⁸ that they said to you, In the last time will be coming scoffers, going according to their own irreverent desires."

²⁰ Now you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in holy spirit,

¹ And to the messenger of the ecclesia in Sardis write: 'Now this He is saying Who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars: '"I am aware of your acts, that you have a name that you are living, and are dead."

²⁰ Lo! I stand at the door and am knocking. If ever anyone should be hearing My voice and opening the door, I will also be coming in to him and dining with him, and he with Me. " ²¹ '"The one who is conquering, to him will I be granting to be seated with Me on My throne as I, also, conquer, and am seated with My Father on His throne."

⁹ And they are singing a new song, saying, "Worthy art Thou to be taking the scroll and to open its seals, For Thou wast slain and dost buy us for God by Thy blood. Out of every tribe and language and people and nation."

⁹ And they are singing a new song, saying, "Worthy art Thou to be taking the scroll and to open its seals, For Thou wast slain and dost buy us for God by Thy blood. Out of every tribe and language and people and nation." ¹⁰ Thou dost also make them a kingdom and a priesthood for our God, And they shall be reigning on the earth." ¹¹ And I perceived, and I hear a sound as of many messengers around the throne and the animals and the elders, and their number was ten thousand ten thousand and a thousand thousand, ¹² saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lambkin slain To get power and riches and wisdom and strength And honor and glory and blessing!" ¹³ And every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and underneath the earth and on the sea, and all in them, I hear also saying, "To Him Who is sitting on the throne-To the Lambkin-Be blessing and honor and glory and might For the eons of the eons!" ¹⁴ And the four animals said, "Amen!And the elders fall and worship."

⁹ And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient serpent called Adversary and Satan, who is deceiving the whole inhabited earth. It was cast into the earth, and its messengers were cast with it."

⁸ And all who are dwelling on the earth will be worshiping it, everyone whose name is not written in the scroll of life of the Lambkin slain from the disruption of the world."

¹⁴ And it is deceiving those dwelling on the earth because of the signs which were given it to do in the sight of the wild beast, saying to those dwelling on the earth to make an image to the wild beast which has the blow of the sword and lives."

¹⁷ And the seventh messenger pours out his bowl on the air. And a loud voice came out of the temple of God, saying, "It has occurred!"

² And he lays hold of the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the Adversary and Satan, and binds him a thousand years."

¹² having a wall, huge and high, having twelve portals, and at the portals twelve messengers, and their names inscribed, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel." ¹³ From the east are three portals, and from the north three portals, and from the south three portals, and from the west three portals." ¹⁴ And the wall of the city has twelve foundations, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lambkin."

¹⁴ And the wall of the city has twelve foundations, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lambkin." ¹⁵ And he who is speaking with me had a measure, a golden reed, that he should be measuring the city, and its portals, and its wall." ¹⁶ And the city is lying four square: and its length is as much as the breadth. And he measures the city with the reed to twelve thousand stadia. Its length and breadth and height are equal. ¹⁷ And he measures its wall of a hundred forty-four cubits of a human measure, which is that of the messenger." ¹⁸ And the building material in its wall is jasper, and the city is clear gold, like clear glass." ¹⁹ The foundations of the wall of the city are adorned with every precious stone, the first foundation with jasper, the second lapis lazuli, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, ²⁰ the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh topaz, the eighth beryl, the ninth peridot, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh amethyst, the twelfth garnet." ²¹ And the twelve portals are twelve pearls. Each one of the portals was respectively of one pearl. And the square of the city is gold, clear as translucent glass." ²² And a temple I did not perceive in it, for the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and the Lambkin." ²³ And the city has no need of the sun nor of the moon, that they should be appearing in it, for the glory of God illuminates it, and its lamp is the Lambkin." ²⁴ And the nations shall be walking by means of its light, and the kings of the earth are carrying their glory into it." ²⁵ And its portals should under no circumstances be locked by day; for there shall be no night there. ²⁶ And they shall be carrying the glory and the honor of the nations into it,

²¹ The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints! Amen!
