2 Timothy Cross References - Etheridge

¹ PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu Meshiha by the will of Aloha, and on account of the promise of life which is in Jeshu Meshiha, ² to Timotheos my beloved son: grace and mercies and peace from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha. ³ I thank Aloha, whom I serve from my fathers with a pure conscience, that constantly I remember thee in my prayers of the night and of the day; ⁴ and have longed to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy: ⁵ in remembrance of thee (and) of thy true faith which dwelt first in the mother of thy mother Lois, and in thy mother Eunika, and which, I am persuaded, (is) in thee also. ⁶ On account of this I put thee in mind to keep awake the gift of Aloha, which is in thee by the laying on of my hands. ⁷ For Aloha hath not given to us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of discipline.[Marathyonutho.] ⁸ Wherefore be not thou ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but sustain evil with the gospel, through the power of Aloha, ⁹ who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling; not according to our works, but according to his will, and that grace of his which was given to us in Jeshu Meshiha before the time of the worlds, ¹⁰ and is now revealed by the revelation of our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, who hath abolished death, and hath demonstrated life and incorruption, through the gospel, ¹¹ of which I am appointed an herald and an apostle and a teacher of the nations: ¹² on account of which I suffer these, and am not ashamed. I know in whom I have believed, and am persuaded that there is power in his hands my deposite to keep for me unto that day. ¹³ Let the outline [Or, model: chauro, from chor, "to look at with attention, to contemplate." Melee chlimotho may be rendered "healthy words, or wholesome doctrines." ] of sound words be with thee, which thou hast heard from me, with the faith and love which are in Jeshu Meshiha: ¹⁴ that good deposite keep through the Spirit of Holiness who dwelleth in us. ¹⁵ Know this, that all those of Asia are turned from me, of whom are Phygellos and Harmogenes. ¹⁶ Our Lord give mercies to the house of Onesiphoros, who many times hath refreshed me, and of the chains of my bonds hath not been ashamed. ¹⁷ But when also he came to Ruma, with diligence he sought me, and found me. ¹⁸ Our Lord grant that he may find mercies with our Lord in that day: and how he ministered to me in Ephesos thou especially knowest.

²¹ She shall give birth to a son, and thou shalt call his name JESHU; for he shall save his people from their sins.

⁷ Blessed the merciful, for upon them shall be mercy.

²² Multitudes will say to me in that day My Lord, my Lord, in thy name have we not prophesied, and in thy name ejected devils, and in thy name performed many mighty works?

⁴¹ Whosoever entertaineth a prophet in the name of a prophet, the reward of a prophet receiveth. Whosoever entertaineth a just man in the name of a just man, the reward of the just man he receiveth. ⁴² And whosoever only giveth one of these little ones a cup of cold (waters) to drink in the name of a disciple, Amen, I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

²⁵ IN that time Jeshu answered and said, I praise thee, my Father, the Lord of the heavens and of the earth, that thou hast concealed these (things) from the wise and prudent [ones], but hast revealed them unto little children. ²⁶ Yes, my Father, for thus was it pleasing before thee!

²¹ And in his name shall the gentiles hope.

³⁶ BUT concerning that day and concerning that hour, no man knoweth; neither the angels of heaven, but the Father only.

¹⁵ To one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, each man according to his faculty; and forthwith went away. ¹⁶ But he who had received five talents went and traded with them, and gained five others. ¹⁷ Likewise he who (had received) two by trading gained two others. ¹⁸ But he who had received one went, dug in the earth, and hid the money of his lord. ¹⁹ After a long time the lord of those servants came, and received from them the account. ²⁰ Then he drew near who had received the five talents, and brought five others, and said, My lord, five talents thou gavest me: behold, five others I have gained by them. ²¹ His lord said to him, It is well, good and faithful servant; over a little thou hast been faithful, over much I will establish thee: enter into the joy of thy lord. ²² And he of the two talents approached, and said, My lord, two talents thou gavest me: behold, two others I have gained by them. ²³ His lord saith to him, It is well, servant good and faithful; over a little thou hast been faithful, over much will I establish thee: enter into the joy of thy lord. ²⁴ But he also drew near who had received the one talent, and said, My lord, I knew thee, that thou wast a hard man, reaping where thou hadst not sowed, and gathering together from whence thou hadst not dispersed. ²⁵ And I feared, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: behold, thou hast thine own. ²⁶ His lord answered, Thou evil and slothful servant, thou didst know me that I reap where I have not sowed, and collect from whence I have not dispersed. ²⁷ Did it not behove thee to cast my money upon the table, that when I came I might require mine own with its increase? ²⁸ Take therefore from him the talent, and give it unto him who hath ten talents. ²⁹ For unto him who hath shall be given, and it shall be added to him; but he who hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken from him. ³⁰ And the indolent servant cast forth into the darknesses without; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

³⁴ Then shall the King say to them on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom which was to be for you from the foundation of the world. ³⁵ For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I thirsted, and you made me to drink; I was a stranger, and you received me; ³⁶ I was naked, and you covered me; I was sick, and you cared for me; and I was in prison, and you came to me. ³⁷ Then shall say unto him those righteous, Our Lord! when did we see that thou wast hungry, and fed thee, or that thou didst thirst, and we gave thee drink? ³⁸ and when did we see thee a stranger, and received thee, or naked, and covered thee? ³⁹ and when did we see thee sick, or in prison, and came to thee? ⁴⁰ And the King shall answer and say to them, Amen I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it unto one of these my least brethren, unto me you did it.

³⁸ For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this generation, sinful and adulterous, the Son of man will also be ashamed of him, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

⁷² To perform his grace with our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;

²⁶ For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of man will be ashamed of him, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

¹² I tell you that for Sadum it shall be more tolerable in that day than for that city.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and all the strength of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.

²¹ In that hour Jeshu exulted in the Holy Spirit, and said, I praise thee, my Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and the intellectual, and hast revealed them unto children. Yes, my Father, for so was thy will.[Or, so was the will before thee.]

³⁶ But if thy whole body be illuminated, and no part whatever in it be darkness, the whole will be light, as when a lamp with its flame enlighteneth thee.

⁷ And he said to the husbandman, Behold, three years come I seeking fruits from this fig-tree, but I have not found: cut it down; why maketh it the ground useless?

¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hirelings are there now in my father's house, who have abundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing!

¹¹ If, therefore, in the wealth of unrighteousness you have not been faithful, the truth to you who will confide?

¹³ And he called his ten servants, and gave to them ten minin,* and said to them, Trade till I come. [* The mani (Heb. maneh) is said to have been equal to sixty shekels, or nine pounds English.]

²⁴ Amen, amen, I say to you, He who heareth my word and believeth on him who sent me, hath the life that is eternal, and into condemnation he cometh not, but hath passed from death unto life.

²⁴ Amen, amen, I say to you, He who heareth my word and believeth on him who sent me, hath the life that is eternal, and into condemnation he cometh not, but hath passed from death unto life. ²⁵ Amen, amen, I say to you, That the hour cometh and also now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of Aloha; and they who hear shall live. ²⁶ For as the Father hath life in his person,[Ba-knumeh, in his person or substance.] so hath he given also to the Son to have life in his person, ²⁷ and hath empowered him also to execute judgment. Because he is the Son of man, ²⁸ marvel not at this; for the hour cometh when all they who are in the sepulchres shall hear his voice, ²⁹ and shall come forth; they who have done good unto the resurrection of life, and they who have done evil unto the resurrection of condemnation.

³⁹ Investigate the scriptures; for in them you think you have the life that is eternal, and they testify of me. ⁴⁰ And you will not come to me that the life that is eternal you might have.

⁴⁰ And you will not come to me that the life that is eternal you might have.

³⁷ Every one whom the Father hath given me, unto me will come; and him who unto me shall come, I will not cast out.

³⁹ But this is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all whom he hath given me I shall lose not of him, but shall raise him at the last day. ⁴⁰ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who seeth the Son and believeth on him, shall have the life that is eternal, and I will raise him at the last day.

⁴⁰ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who seeth the Son and believeth on him, shall have the life that is eternal, and I will raise him at the last day.

⁴⁴ No man can come to me unless the Father who sent me shall attract him, and I will raise him at the last day.

⁵⁴ He who eateth of my body, and drinketh of my blood, hath the life which is eternal, and I will raise him at the last day.

²⁸ and I give to them the life which is eternal, and they shall not perish for ever, and no man shall snatch them from my hands.

²⁵ Jeshu saith to her, I am the Resurrection and the Life; * and (he) who believeth in me, although he will die, shall live. [* Eno-no Nuchoma Va-chayee. The appellative Nuchoma is commonly rendered, "the consolation." The Syriac verb nachem is either consolatus est, or resurrexit. The rising of the dead was well called "the consolation!"] ²⁶ And every one who liveth and believeth in me, for ever shall not die. Believest thou this?

⁶ Jeshu saith to him, I (am) the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh unto my Father unless by me.

¹⁷ the Spirit of truth, he whom the world cannot receive, because it doth not see him, nor know him. But you know him; for with you he dwelleth, and in you is.

²⁷ PEACE I leave with you; my peace I give to you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor be afraid.

²⁷ You also testify, because from the beginning are you with me.

²² You also now have sorrow; but again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

²⁴ Hitherto you have not asked any thing in my name:* ask, and receive, that your joy may be full. [* Some copies add here, Velo medem, and not any thing.]

³ But this is the life which is eternal, that they know thee, who art the true Aloha,[The Aloha of truth.] and Him whom thou hast sent, Jeshu Meshicha.

⁹ And for them I pray; not for the world I pray, but for them whom thou hast given me, because they are thine.

¹¹ Henceforth I am not in the world; but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them through thy name, that (name) which thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we are. ¹² While I was with them in the world, I kept them through thy name: those whom thou gavest me I have kept, and a man of them is not lost, but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled.

¹⁵ Not that thou wouldest take them out of the world do I pray, but that thou wouldest keep them from the evil;

²⁴ Father, those whom thou hast given I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see that glory of mine, which thou hast given to me; for thou lovedst me before the foundations of the world.

³⁵ And he who SAW testifieth, and the truth is his testimony; and he knoweth that the truth he hath said, that you also may believe.

³¹ but these are written, that you may believe that Jeshu is the Meshicha, the Son of Aloha, and that when you have believed you may have in his name the life which is eternal.

⁸ but when the Spirit of Holiness hath come upon you, you shall receive power to be made unto me the witnesses, in Urishlem and in all Jehud, and also among the Shomroyee, and unto the confines of the earth.

⁴⁷ praising Aloha, (and) given (to be) in favour before all the people. And our Lord added daily them who were saved into the church.

³¹ Him hath Aloha constituted a Prince and a Saviour, and elevated him at his right hand, to give repentance and remission of sins unto Israel.

⁴¹ And they went out from before them, rejoicing to be worthy for the sake of the Name to be ill treated.

⁸ But Estephanos was filled with grace and power, and wrought signs and miracles among the people.

⁵⁹ And they stoned Estephanos, (he) praying and saying, Our Lord Jeshu, receive my spirit.

¹⁷ Then they laid upon them the hand, and they received the Spirit of Holiness. ¹⁸ And when Simon saw that by the hand-laying of the apostles the Spirit of Holiness was given, he offered to them silver,

¹⁵ And the Lord said to him, Arise, go; for a vessel is he to me, chosen to bear my name to the nations, and to kings, and to the house of the sons of Israel. ¹⁶ For I will show him what he is to suffer on account of my name.

²² BUT Shaol was the more strengthened, and moved those Jihudoyee who dwelt at Darmsuk, while he showed that this is the Meshiha.

³⁸ concerning Jeshu who was of Natsrath, whom Aloha anointed with the Spirit of Holiness and with power: he who went about and healed those who were worn out with evil, because Aloha was with him.

²³ From the seed of this (man) the God of Israel, as he had promised, raised up Jeshu the Redeemer.

⁴⁶ But Paulos and Bar Naba said to them openly, To you it behoved first to speak the word of Aloha; but because you repel it from you, and determine against yourselves that you are not worthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

⁵⁰ But the Jihudoyee excited the principal men of the city and [certain] rich women, who with them feared Aloha, and raised a persecution against Paulos and against Bar Naba, and cast them out from their bounds.

⁵ But there was made a movement by the Gentiles and by the Jihudoyee and their chiefs to maltreat them, and to crush them with stones. ⁶ And when they knew, they passed away, and escaped to the cities of Lykania, Lystra, and Derbe, and the villages which surround them,

¹⁸ Known from eternity are the works of Aloha.

¹ And he came to Derbe the city, and to Lystra. BUT a certain disciple was there whose name was Timotheus, the son of a certain Jihudoytha, a believer, and his father an Aramoya.

⁶ But they went through the countries of Phrygia and Galatia; and the Spirit of Holiness forbad them, that they should not preach the word of Aloha in Asia.

¹ AND while Apolu was in Kurinthos, Paulos itinerated through the upper countries unto Ephesos; and he asked those disciples whom he found there,

⁶ And Paulos laid on them the hand, and the Spirit of Holiness came upon them, and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

¹⁰ And this was done two years, until all who dwelt in Asia, Jihudoyee and Aramoyee, had heard the word of the Lord.

²⁷ And not only is this business defamed and brought to an end, but also the temple of Artemis the great goddess is reputed as nothing, and she also, the goddess of all Asia, and (whom) all the nations worship, is despised.

³¹ And the chiefs of Asia, because they were his friends, sent, praying of him not to deliver [Or, give his life.] himself by going into the theatre.

¹⁶ for Paulos had decided with himself to pass by Ephesos, that he might not be hindered there, because he hastened, that, if it were possible, on the day of the Pentecost in Urishlem he might work.

¹⁹ serving Aloha in much lowliness and with tears, and in those temptations which passed upon me through the devices of the Jihudoyee.

²⁴ But by me my life is reckoned nothing, so that I may accomplish my course, and the ministry I have received from our Lord Jeshu, to bear witness concerning the gospel of the grace of Aloha.

³¹ On account of this be watchful, and remember, that for three years I ceased not by night and by day with tears to instruct every one of you.

³⁷ And there was a great weeping with all of them, and they embraced him and kissed him; ³⁸ but most agonized (were they) by that word which he had spoken, that again they were not to see his face. And they accompanied him to the ship.

¹³ THEN answered Paulos and said, What do you, weeping and bruising my heart? For not to be bound only am I prepared, but also to die in Urishlem, for the sake of the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

²⁷ And when the seventh day was come the Jihudoyee who were from Asia saw him in the temple, and stirred up against him all the people. And they lifted their hands against him, ²⁸ crying out, and saying, Men, sons of Israel, help! This is the man who contrary to our people teacheth every where, and contrary to the law, and against this place. And also Aramoyee hath he brought into the temple, and profaned this holy place. ²⁹ For they had before seen with him Trophimus the Ephesian in the city, and supposed that with Paulos he had entered the temple. ³⁰ And the whole city was commoved, and all the people assembled, and they laid hold of Paulos, and dragged him without from the temple; and instantly the gates were shut. ³¹ And while the multitude sought to kill him, the tribune [Kiliarka.] of the cohort heard that the whole city was agitated.

³ I am a man a Jihudoya; and I was born in Tarsos of Cilicia, but was brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and instructed perfectly in the law of our fathers. And I was zealous for Aloha, even as all of you are also.

²¹ And he said to me, Go: for I send thee far away to preach to the Gentiles. ²² And when they had heard Paulos until this word, they lifted up their voice, and cried, Take from the earth one like this; for he ought not to live. ²³ And as they shouted and cast their garments and threw dust to the heaven, ²⁴ the tribune commanded that he should be brought into the fortress, and commanded him to be questioned by scourging, that he might know for what cause they cried against him.

¹ And Paulos, looking upon their assembly, said, Men, brethren, I in all good conscience have conversed before Aloha, unto this day.

¹⁴ Nevertheless, this do I confess, that in that very doctrine of which they speak, in it serve I the God of my fathers, believing in all that is written in the law and in the prophets,

¹⁶ Because of this also I labour to have a good conscience before Aloha and before men, continually.

⁴ For the Jihudoyee themselves - if they would testify - know my manners from my youth, which were mine from the beginning among my people at Urishlem;

¹¹ And in every synagogue I was furious against them, while I constrained them to blaspheme the name of Jeshu; and, being filled with great wrath against them, I went forth unto other cities also to persecute them.

²⁵ Paulos said to him, I am not mad, victorious Festos, but words of truth and righteousness I speak. ²⁶ And king Agripos also, especially, knoweth concerning these things; and therefore speak I with openness before him; because not one of these things I think have been hidden from him; for they were not done in secrecy.

²³ For in this night there appeared to me the angel of Aloha, (of) him whose I am, and whom I serve.

²⁰ Wherefore I have besought you to come, that I might see you, and declare to you these things; for on account of the hope of Israel am I bound with this chain.

³⁰ And Paulos hired his own house, and was in it two years, and received there all those who came to him. ³¹ And he preached concerning the kingdom of Aloha, and taught with confidence concerning our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, none forbidding.

¹ PAULOS, a servant of Jeshu Meshiha, called, and an apostle, who hath been separated unto the gospel of Aloha,

⁷ To all who are in Ruma, beloved of Aloha, called and saints; peace and grace be with you from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha. ⁸ First, I praise my God through Jeshu Meshiha on behalf of you all, that your faith is heard (of) in all the world. ⁹ For a witness unto me is Aloha, whom I serve in the spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing at all time I remember you in my prayers.

¹¹ For I greatly desire to see you, and to impart to you the gift of the Spirit, that thereby you may be established,

¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of Aloha for the salvation of all who believe in him, whether of the Jihudoyee first, or of the Aramoyee:

⁷ To them who seek, in perseverance of good works, glory and honour and incorruption, he giveth eternal life;

²⁰ and an instructor of the wanting-in-mind, and a teacher of children, and hast a type of knowledge and of truth in the law:

² Much in every thing: primarily that they had intrusted (to them) the words of Aloha.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law no flesh is justified before him; for from the law sin is known.

²³ for all have sinned, and have failed of the glory of Aloha; ²⁴ and all are justified by grace freely, and (that) through the redemption which is in Jeshu Meshiha,

³¹ Do we therefore the law abolish by faith? Not so, but the law itself we establish.

²¹ and was sure that what he had promised to him Aloha could fulfil.

⁴ and patience experience, [Or, proof, probation.] and experience hope: ⁵ but hope maketh us not ashamed, because the love of Aloha is shed forth upon our hearts by the Spirit of Holiness who is given to us.

⁵ but hope maketh us not ashamed, because the love of Aloha is shed forth upon our hearts by the Spirit of Holiness who is given to us.

¹⁷ For if because of the transgression of one death was made to reign, much more (shall) they who receive the abundance of the grace and of the gift and of righteousness, reign in life by one, Jeshu Meshiha. ¹⁸ As then on account of the transgression of one was the condemnation of all men, so, on account of the righteousness of one shall there be acquittal* unto the life of all men. [* Zokutho, Victoria, innocentia, justificatio. Heb. Zakah, Purum fuit, purum pronunciavit.

²¹ that as sin hath reigned in death, so grace might reign in righteousness unto the life which is eternal, by the hand of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

⁶ For we know that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be abolished, that more we should not serve sin.

¹⁷ But praise to Aloha that you were the servants of sin, but have obeyed from the heart the form of doctrine to which you have been delivered.

²³ For the wages of sin is death; and the gift of Aloha the life of eternity by our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

⁹ But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if truly the Spirit of Aloha dwelleth in you. But if a man have not the Spirit of the Meshiha, this (man) is not his.

¹¹ And if the Spirit of him who raised our Lord Jeshu Meshiha from among the dead dwell in you, he who raised our Lord Jeshu Meshiha from among the dead will also make alive your dead bodies, on account of his Spirit who dwelleth in you.

¹³ For if after the flesh you live, you must die: but if, after the Spirit, the habitudes of the body you mortify, you live.

¹⁵ For we have not received the spirit of servitude again unto fear, but we have received the Spirit of the adoption* of sons, by whom we cry, Father, our Father! [* Rucho da-simath benayo: The Spirit of the constituting of sons.]

¹⁷ And if sons, heirs also; heirs of Aloha, and the sons of the inheritance of Jeshu Meshiha. For if we suffer with him, with him also shall we be glorified. ¹⁸ For I consider that the sufferings of this time are not equal to that glory which is to be revealed in us.

²⁸ BUT we know that those who love Aloha, in every thing he helpeth them for good; them whom he set before that they might be called. ²⁹ And from the first he knew them, and signified* them in the likeness of the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born of many brethren. [* Var'sham enum, Signed, designated, notified them.] ³⁰ But whom he before signified, them he called; and whom he called, them he justified; and whom he justified, them he glorified. ³¹ What then shall we say of these? If Aloha be for us, who is against us? ³² And if his Son be spared not, but for all of us delivered him up, how will he not with him give us all things? ³³ Who is against the chosen of Aloha? Aloha justifieth. ³⁴ Who condemneth? The Meshiha hath died and arisen, and is at the right hand of Aloha, and prayeth for us. ³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Meshiha? Affliction, or sorrow, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword? ³⁶ As it is written: For thee all the day long are we killed, we are reckoned as sheep for the slaughter.

³⁶ As it is written: For thee all the day long are we killed, we are reckoned as sheep for the slaughter. ³⁷ But in these we all are victorious by the hand of him who hath loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor authorities, nor powers, nor things subsisting, nor things to come,

³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor authorities, nor powers, nor things subsisting, nor things to come, ³⁹ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate me from the love of Aloha which is in our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

¹ I say the truth in Meshiha, and lie not; my conscience witnesseth for me in the Spirit of Holiness,

¹¹ before her sons were born, and had not wrought good or evil, the (choice) of Aloha was (made) known before that it should remain: not by works, but by him who called:

¹⁵ behold, also, he said unto Musha, I will have mercy upon whom I will have mercy, and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious. ¹⁶ Therefore it is not by him who willeth, nor by him who runneth, but by Aloha the Merciful. ¹⁷ For it is said in the scripture to Pherun, For this I have raised thee up, that I might show in thee my power, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth. ¹⁸ Then upon whom he willeth he is merciful, and whom he willeth he hardeneth. ¹⁹ Perhaps thou wilt say, Of what then doth he complain; for who shall arise against his will? ²⁰ Who then art thou, O man, who givest answer against Aloha? Will the mass say to him who formeth it, Why thus hast thou formed me? ²¹ Or, hath not the potter power over his clay, that from the (same) mass he might make vessels, the one to honour, and the other to vileness? ²² BUT if Aloha, willing to reveal his wrath, and to make known his power, in his much patience bore with the vessels of wrath who were perfected for destruction, ²³ and poured his mercy upon the vessels of mercy who were prepared of Aloha for glory, ²⁴ who are we, (ourselves) the called, not only of the Jihudoyee, but also of the Gentiles:

³³ as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of ffence; and whosoever in him shall believe shall not be ashamed.

⁵ So also, at this time, a residue is left by the election of grace. ⁶ But if by grace, it is not of works; otherwise grace is not grace. But if by works, it is not of grace; otherwise work is not work.

⁶ But we have various gifts according to the grace that is given to us: is it prophecy? (let him who has received it) prophesy according to the measure of the faith. ⁷ Hath (another the gift) of ministry? (let him be employed) in his ministry; he who is a teacher, (let him labour) in his teaching; ⁸ he who is an exhorter, in his exhorting; as he who giveth, (let him give with simplicity;) and he who presideth,[Lit. "standeth at the head."] (let it be) with diligence; and he who (is engaged in works) of mercy, with cheerfulness.

¹⁹ And avenge not yourselves, my beloved, but give place unto wrath; for it is written, that if thou execute not judgment for thyself, I will execute thy judgment, saith Aloha.

⁵ There is who distinguisheth [Or, judgeth.] day from day, and there is who judgeth all days (to be alike); but let every man in the conviction [Or, knowledge, intelligence.] of his (own) mind be confirmed.

¹⁴ For I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jeshu, that a thing which is unclean from itself is not (so); but to him who judgeth of any thing that it is polluted, to him only it is polluted.

¹² And again, Eshaia hath said, there shall be a root of Jeshai, and he who shall arise shall be the chief of the peoples; and upon him will the Gentiles hope. ¹³ But the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, through faith, that you may abound in hope through the power of the Spirit of Holiness. ¹⁴ BUT I am persuaded also concerning you, my brethren, that you are also full of good, and filled with all knowledge, and able also to instruct others.

³⁰ Now I entreat of you, my brethren, by our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and by the love of the Spirit, to labour with me in prayer on my behalf, with Aloha, ³¹ that I may be delivered from them who believe not in Jihud, and (that) the service which I bear to the saints may be well received, ³² and I may come to you with joy in the will of Aloha, and be rested with you.

²⁵ but is revealed in this time by means of the scriptures of the prophets, and by the commandment of the Everlasting Aloha is made known to all the nations for the obedience of faith; ²⁶ (to Him) who alone is wise, BE GLORY BY JESHU MESHIHA, UNTO THE AGE OF AGES. AMEN.

¹ PAULOS the called, and the apostle of Jeshu Meshiha by the will of Aloha, and Sosthenis a brother,

⁶ according to the testimony of the Meshiha, which is confirmed in you.

¹⁸ FOR the doctrine of the cross to those who perish is foolishness, but to us who are saved it is the power of Aloha.

⁴ And my speech and my preaching were not with the persuasion of the words of wisdom, but with the demonstration of the Spirit and of power;

¹³ the work of every one shall be revealed, for that day shall reveal it; for by the fire shall it be revealed, and the work of every man as it is the fire shall distinguish.

¹⁶ KNOW YOU not that you are the temple of Aloha, and (that) the Spirit of Aloha inhabiteth in you?

²¹ On this account let no one boast in men: for every thing is yours; ²² whether Paulos, or Apolo, or Kipha, or the world, or life, or death, or things standing, or things to be; every thing is yours,

⁵ Therefore, do not judge before the time, until the Lord come, who will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the thoughts of hearts. Then will there be praise to each man from Aloha.

⁹ But I consider that us, the apostles, Aloha hath set last, as unto death, to be a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men, ¹⁰ We are fools for the sake of the Meshiha, but we are wise in the Meshiha; we are the weak, but you are the mighty; you are glorified, and we abased. ¹¹ Until this hour we hunger and thirst, we are naked and beaten and have no fixed dwelling; ¹² and we labour, working with our hands. They revile us, and we bless; they persecute us, and we endure; ¹³ they maltreat us, and we pray for them; as the refuse of the world are we made and the execration* of all men until now. [* Kuphoro. Piaculum; flagitium expiatione dignum.]

¹⁹ Or, know you not that your body is the temple of the Spirit of Holiness, who dwelleth in you, (even) Him whom you have received from Aloha? And you are not your own,

¹⁷ For if with my will I do this, I have a reward. But if without my will, (yet) a stewardship is confided to me.

²⁶ and the last enemy be abolished, (which is) death.

⁵³ For this which is corruptible shall put on incorruption, and likewise (this) which dieth shall put on immortality. ⁵⁴ But when this which is corruptible shall put on incorruptibleness, and this which dieth, immortality, then shall be done that word which is written, Death is swallowed up in victory! ⁵⁵ Where is thy sting, Death? and where is thy victory Shiul?

⁸ For I remain at Ephesos until the Pentecost.

¹⁸ For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Wherefore acknowledge those who are such. ¹⁹ All the churches of Asia ask for your peace; Akilos and Priskila, with the church which is in their house, ask for your peace greatly in our Lord.

¹ PAULOS, apostle of Jeshu Meshiha, by the will of Aloha; and Timotheos a brother: to the church of Aloha which is in Kurinthos, and to all the saints who are in all Akaia.

¹² For our glorying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and purity, and by the grace of Aloha, we are conversant in the world; and not with the wisdom of the flesh, and especially with you yourselves.

²⁰ For all the promises of Aloha in him, in the Meshiha, are Yes; for which by him we give Amen to the glory of Aloha.

⁴ For now while we are in this house, we groan from the weight of it: yet are we not willing to cast it off, but to be clothed upon of it, that its mortality might be swallowed up in life.

¹³ For if we be beside ourselves, (it is) unto Aloha; and if we be right,[Tagninan.] (it is) unto you. ¹⁴ For the love of the Meshiha constraineth us, because we judge this, That if one for every man hath died, then (was) every man dead.

¹⁶ And henceforth we no man know according to the flesh;* and if we have known the Meshiha according to the flesh,* yet from now we know not. [* Baphgar, "In the body."]

¹⁹ For Aloha is in the Meshiha, who hath reconciled the world with his greatness; and he hath not reckoned unto them their sins, and hath put in us the word of reconciliation. ²⁰ WE are ambassadors then for the Meshiha, and as if Aloha himself besought you by us: instead of the Meshiha, [Chaloph Meshiha.] therefore, we beseech, Be you reconciled unto Aloha.

⁶ by purity, by knowledge, by prolonging the mind, by benignity, by the Spirit of Holiness, by love without deceit, ⁷ by the doctrine of truth, by the power of Aloha, by the arms of righteousness for the right hand and for the left,

¹ BUT concerning the administration of the saints, I do more (than enough) if I write to you.

¹² For, on account of the performance of this service, we not only supply the deficiency of the saints, but also cause many thanks givings to abound unto Aloha. ¹³ For on account of the proof of this service we glorify Aloha, because you are subject to the confession of the gospel of Meshiha, and you have communicated in simplicity with them and with every man. ¹⁴ And prayer they offer on your behalf in great love, on account of the greatness of the grace of Aloha which is upon you.

²³ if they are ministers of the Meshiha, - I speak with defectiveness of mind, - I exceed then! In labours I exceed them, in stripes I exceed them, in chains I exceed them, in deaths many times. ²⁴ From the Jihudoyee, five times, forty (stripes) wanting one have I devoured; ²⁵ three times with staves have I been beaten, once was I stoned, three times have I been in shipwreck, a day and a night without a ship have I been in the sea. ²⁶ In journeys many, in danger of rivers, in danger of robbers, in danger from my own race, in danger from the Gentiles; I have been in danger in cities, I have been in danger in the waste, in danger by sea, in danger from false brethren; ²⁷ in labour and weariness, in much watching, in hunger and thirst, in much fasting, in cold and in nakedness;

⁹ And he said to me, My grace sufficeth thee; for my power in weakness is perfected. Gladly therefore will I boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Meshiha may overshadow me. ¹⁰ For this cause I am willing in infirmities, in reviling, in affliction, in persecutions, in distresses, for the sake of the Meshiha; for when I am weak, then am I strong.

¹⁴ And I excelled in Judaism more than many of the sons of my years who were of my kindred, and was exceedingly zealous for the doctrine of my fathers.

⁷ but otherwise: for seeing that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Kipha was intrusted with [that of] the circumcision;

⁴ You have ceased from the Meshiha who are justified by the law, and from grace you have fallen.

²² But the fruits of the Spirit are, love, joy, peace, prolonging of the spirit, benignity, goodness, fidelity, meekness, patience;

³ Blessed be He, Aloha, the Father of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, who hath blessed us with all blessings of the Spirit in heaven, in the Meshiha; ⁴ as he before elected us in him, from before the foundations of the world, that we should be saints, and without blemish before him, and in love predesignated us unto himself,

⁹ and hath made known to us the mystery of his will, which before he had determined in himself should be done:

¹¹ And by him we have been chosen, even as he predesignated and willed, who worketh all according to the mind of his will; ¹² that we who first hoped in the Meshiha, should be to the honour of his glory. In whom you also heard the word of truth, which is the gospel of your salvation; ¹³ and in whom you believed and were sealed with the Spirit of Holiness who was promised;

¹⁶ have not ceased to give thanks on your behalf, and to remember you in my prayers;

¹⁸ and would enlighten the eyes of your hearts to know what is the hope of his calling,

⁴ BUT Aloha, who is rich in his mercies, for his great love wherewith he loved us ⁵ while we were dead in our sins, made us alive with the Meshiha, and through his grace delivered us,

⁸ For by his grace are we saved through faith, and this was not of you, but is the gift of Aloha, ⁹ not of works, that no man should glory.

²² while you also in him are being builded the dwelling of Aloha by the Spirit.

¹ On account of this I, Paulos, am bound for Jeshu Meshiha for the sake of you Gentiles:

¹ On account of this I, Paulos, am bound for Jeshu Meshiha for the sake of you Gentiles: ² if you have heard the dispensation of the grace of Aloha which was given me for you; ³ that by revelation he made known to me the mystery, as I have written to you in few (words); ⁴ so that while you read you are able to understand my knowledge of the mystery of the Meshiha, ⁵ which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it hath now been revealed to his holy apostles and to his prophets by the Spirit; ⁶ that the Gentiles should be sons of his inheritance and partakers of his body, and in the promise which is given concerning him by the gospel,

⁶ that the Gentiles should be sons of his inheritance and partakers of his body, and in the promise which is given concerning him by the gospel, ⁷ of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of Aloha, which he hath given me by the operation of his power. ⁸ To me, who am the least of all the saints, is given this grace, that I should preach among the Gentiles the riches of the Meshiha, which are not searched;

¹¹ that which he prepared from of old, and which he hath executed by Jeshu our Lord,

¹³ WHEREFORE I pray that I may not weary in my affliction, which is on your account, for this is your glory;

¹ I BESEECH of you, therefore, I, the bound one for our Lord, that you walk as is worthy of the calling wherewith you are called,

¹⁷ BUT this I say and testify in the Lord, that from henceforth you may not walk as the rest of the Gentiles, who walk in the vanity of their minds,

¹⁸ And be not drunk with wine, in which is intemperance, but be filled with the Spirit.

²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may speak with freedom, as it behoveth me to speak it.

⁷ For so it is right for me to think concerning you all, because you are laid up in my heart; and in my bonds, and in the defence of the truth of the gospel, you are partakers with me in grace. ⁸ For Aloha is my witness how I love you with the bowels of Jeshu Meshiha.

²⁰ even as I hope and expect, that in nothing I shall be confounded, but manifestly, as at all times, so also now, the Meshiha shall be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

²⁷ As it becometh the gospel of the Meshiha, so have your conversation; that if coming I see you, or absent, I may hear of you, that you stand in one spirit and in one soul, conquering together for the faith of the gospel;

²¹ For all are seeking what is theirs, and not what is of Jeshu Meshiha.

²⁶ for he desired to see you all, and was anxious, because he knew that you had heard that he was sick.

⁸ and I also (still) reckon them all loss, for the grandeur [Rabutho.] of the knowledge of Jeshu Meshiha my Lord; for whose sake I have lost all things, and have reckoned as dung, that the Meshiha I may gain,

¹⁰ that in it I may know Jeshu, and the power of his resurrection, and have fellowship in his sufferings, and be conformed into his death,

²¹ who will change the body of our abasement to make (it) in the fashion of his glorious body,[The body of his glory.] according to his great power, by which all is subjected unto him.

¹ Wherefore, my brethren, beloved and tenderly-regarded, my joy and my crown, so stand in our Lord, my beloved.

⁹ These which you have learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these perform; and the God of peace will be with you.

¹³ for every thing I am empowered through the Meshiha who strengtheneth me.

⁴ even from our hearing of your faith in Jeshu Meshiha, and of your love to all the saints;

⁸ and who hath made known to us your love, which is in the Spirit.

¹¹ and in all power be empowered according to the greatness of his glory in all patience and prolongedness of spirit:

²⁴ I rejoice in the sufferings which are on your account, and fulfil the void of the afflictions of the Meshiha in my flesh for the sake of his body, which is the church;

²⁶ that mystery which was hidden from ages and generations, but now hath been revealed unto his saints. ²⁷ To whom Aloha hath willed to make known what is the opulence of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is, The Meshiha, who in you (is) the hope of glory;

¹¹ and Jeshu who is called Justos: these are of the circumcision, and these only have helped me in the kingdom of Aloha, and these have been a consolation to me.

² We give thanks to Aloha at all time for you all and are mindful of you in our prayers constantly, ³ and remember before Aloha the Father the works of your faith, and the labour of your love, and the perseverance of your hope, which is in our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

¹⁶ who forbid us to speak with the Gentiles that they might be saved; to fill up their sins for all time: but upon them cometh the wrath unto the end! ¹⁷ BUT we, my brethren, having been bereaved-ones of you the time of an hour, as to our presence,[In our faces.] but not in our heart, have been the more solicitous to see your faces with great love,

¹⁹ For what is our hope and our joy, and the crown of our glorying, but you, before our Lord Jeshu at his coming?

⁴ For while also we were with you, we foretold you that we were to be afflicted, as you know that it hath been.

¹⁰ unless before Aloha we supplicate exceedingly by night and by day to see your faces, and to perfect what is wanting to your faith?

⁷ For Aloha hath not called us to uncleanness, but unto sanctification.

⁴ But you, my brethren, are not in darkness, that that day as a thief should overtake you.

¹⁹ The Spirit quench not.

²¹ Prove every thing, and what is good retain.

⁸ then will be revealed that evil one, whom our Lord Jeshu will consume by the spirit of his mouth, and will abolish by the revelation of his advent.

¹³ But we are bound to give thanks unto Aloha at all time for you, our brethren, beloved in our Lord, because Aloha hath chosen you from the beginning unto salvation, by sanctification of the Spirit, and by the belief of the truth. ¹⁴ For unto these Aloha called you by our preaching, that you should be the glory of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

¹ PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu Meshiha, by the commandment of Aloha our Saviour, and of Jeshu Meshiha our hope; ² to Timotheos, my true son in the faith: grace and mercy and peace from Aloha our Father and Jeshu Meshiha our Lord. ³ I requested of thee, when I would go into Makedunia, to remain at Ephesos, and instruct certain men that they teach not various doctrines,

⁵ But the end [Soko, "design or scope."] of the commandment is love, from a pure heart, and from a good conscience, and from genuine faith.

⁷ seeking to become teachers of the law, while they understand not what they speak, nor that concerning which they contend.

¹⁰ and fornicators, and liers with men, and stealers of the free, and liars, and doers against an oath and whatever (else) is opposed to the healthful doctrine ¹¹ of the gospel of the glory of the blessed Aloha, with which I have been intrusted.

¹⁴ But in me hath abounded the grace of our Lord, and faith and love which are in Jeshu Meshiha.

¹⁹ with faith and with a good conscience. For those who this have put away from them of faith have been emptied;

⁶ who gave himself a ransom for every man; a testimony which cometh in its time, ⁷ of which I am constituted an herald and an apostle, I say the truth and lie not, to be a teacher of the nations in the faith of the truth.

⁶ These if thou shalt teach thy brethren, a good minister wilt thou be of Jeshu Meshiha, while thou wilt be enlarged with words of faith and of the good doctrine which thou hast learned.

¹⁴ Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee with prophecy, and the hand-laying [Sim-yado.] of the presbytery.

³ But if there be a man who teacheth other doctrine, and who accedeth not to the healthful words of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and to the doctrine of the fear of Aloha,

¹⁹ and lay for themselves a good foundation for that which is to be, that they may lay hold on the true life. ²⁰ O Timothy, watch over that which is confided to thee, and fly from vain words,* and the turnings of false knowledge. [* B'noth kolee serïktho, vain voices.]

¹ PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu Meshiha by the will of Aloha, and on account of the promise of life which is in Jeshu Meshiha,

⁵ in remembrance of thee (and) of thy true faith which dwelt first in the mother of thy mother Lois, and in thy mother Eunika, and which, I am persuaded, (is) in thee also.

⁸ Wherefore be not thou ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but sustain evil with the gospel, through the power of Aloha,

¹² on account of which I suffer these, and am not ashamed. I know in whom I have believed, and am persuaded that there is power in his hands my deposite to keep for me unto that day.

¹⁴ that good deposite keep through the Spirit of Holiness who dwelleth in us.

¹⁶ Our Lord give mercies to the house of Onesiphoros, who many times hath refreshed me, and of the chains of my bonds hath not been ashamed.

¹⁸ Our Lord grant that he may find mercies with our Lord in that day: and how he ministered to me in Ephesos thou especially knowest.

¹ Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha. ² And those (doctrines) which thou hast heard from me by many witnesses, them commit to faithful men, who are also able to teach others. ³ And endure evils as a good soldier of Jeshu Meshiha.

⁹ for which I endure evils unto bonds, as an evil-doer: but the word of Aloha is not bound.

¹¹ Faithful is the word: for if we be dead with him, with him also we shall live; ¹² and if we endure, we shall also reign with him; but, if we deny him, he also will deny us!

¹⁴ Of these (truths) remind them, and testify before our Lord, that they contend not with unprofitable words, to the overturning of those who hear them.

¹⁰ BUT thou hast followed [Ath ethaith bothar.] my doctrine and my manners, and my purpose, and my faith, and my prolongedness of mind, and my charity, and my patience, ¹¹ and my persecution, and my sufferings. And thou knowest what things I endured in Antioch, and in Ikonion, and in Lystra, what persecution I endured; and out of all these my Lord delivered me. ¹² But all they who will in the fear of Aloha to live in Jeshu Meshiha, are persecuted.

¹⁴ But abide thou in those things that thou hast learned, and in which thou art confirmed; for thou knowest from whom thou hast learned: ¹⁵ and that from thy childhood thou hast learned the holy writings, which are able to make thee wise to salvation, through faith which is in Jeshu Meshiha.

² preach the word, and stand with diligence in season, and (that) which is not season; confute, and rebuke with all prolongedness of mind and doctrine.

⁵ But watch thou in every thing, and endure evils, and work the work of an evangelist, and thy ministry fulfil.

⁸ And from now there is kept for me the crown of righteousness, which my Lord will give me in that day, because he is a righteous judge: yet, not only to me, but to all them who love his manifestation. ⁹ BE careful to come to me speedily; ¹⁰ for Dema hath left me, and hath loved this world, and is gone to Thessalonika; Krispos to Galatia, Titos to Dalmatia; ¹¹ Luka only is with me. Take Markos and bring him with thee; for helpful to me is he in the ministry. ¹² But Tykikos have I sent to Ephesos. The case (for) books which I left at Troas with Karpos,

¹⁶ In the first defence no man was with me, but all of them left me. May this not be reckoned to them!

¹⁶ In the first defence no man was with me, but all of them left me. May this not be reckoned to them! ¹⁷ But my Lord stood with me, that by me the preaching might be fulfilled, and (that) all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered from the mouth of the lion.

¹⁷ But my Lord stood with me, that by me the preaching might be fulfilled, and (that) all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered from the mouth of the lion.

¹⁹ Give salutation to Priskela, and to Akilos, and to the house of Onesiphoros.

²¹ Be careful to come before winter. Ebulos and Pudis, and Linos, and Klaudia, and all the brethren, ask for your peace.

² unto the hope of eternal life, which Aloha the true counselled before the times of the ages, ³ and his word hath revealed in his time by our preaching, which was confided to me by the command of Aloha our Saviour: ⁴ To Titos, my true son in the common faith. Grace and peace from Aloha the Father and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha our Saviour.

⁹ and careful over the doctrine of the word of faith, that he may be able also to comfort by his teaching the healthy, and to reprove those who are contentious.

¹ But speak thou that which becometh sound doctrine,

⁸ which is sincere and incorrupt, and which no man will despise, that he who riseth against us may be ashamed when he cannot say any thing hateful against us.

¹¹ FOR the all-saving grace of Aloha [Or, the grace of Aloha saving all.] hath appeared to all men,

¹³ while expecting the blessed hope and the manifestation of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha;

⁴ But when appeared the goodness and mercy of Aloha our Saviour,

⁴ But when appeared the goodness and mercy of Aloha our Saviour, ⁵ not by works of righteousness which we had done, but by his own mercy he saved us, by the laving of the birth which is afresh, by the renewing of the Spirit of Holiness,

⁷ For we have great joy and consolation, that by thy love the bowels of the saints are refreshed.

²⁰ Yes, my brother, I will be refreshed by thee in our Lord; refresh my bowels in the Meshiha.

¹⁴ FORASMUCH as the sons have been made to participate in flesh and blood, he also likewise was made a partaker of these very things; that by his death he might abolish him who held the power of death, who is Satana, ¹⁵ and set loose them who in the fear of death had been all their lives subjected to servitude.

¹⁵ and set loose them who in the fear of death had been all their lives subjected to servitude.

¹⁸ For in this, that he hath suffered and been tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

¹ Wherefore, my holy brethren, who have been called with the calling that [is] from heaven, contemplate this Apostle and High Priest of our confession, JESHU MESHIHA!

⁶ but the Meshiha as THE SON over his [own] house: and his house are we, if, unto the end, we shall hold fast our confidence,[Retain our openness of faces.] and the triumph [The glorying.] of his hope.

¹⁴ THEREFORE having such a great High Priest, Jeshu Meshiha, the Son of Aloha, who hath ascended to heaven, let us persevere in the confession of him.

² and for the doctrine of ablution,[Compare chap. Dan 9:10; Exo 29:4; Num 8:7; 19:7.] and of imposition of the hand,[Lev 4:4; Lev 16:21; Num 27:18; Deu 34:9.] and for the resurrection from the place [House of the dead. Isa 26:19; Eze 27.] of the dead, and for the judgment which is eternal? [Dan. 12:2.]

⁹ But we are persuaded concerning you, my brethren, those things which are good, and that draw nigh unto salvation, though thus we speak. ¹⁰ For not unrighteous is Aloha, that he should forget your works and your charity which ye have manifested in his name, who have ministered unto the saints, and do minister.

²⁵ And he is able to save for eternity them who approach by him unto Aloha; for he liveth through all time, and offereth up prayers on their behalf.

¹⁵ For this was he made the Mediator of the new covenant, that by his death he might become the ransom for those who had transgressed against the first covenant, (and) that they might receive the promise, they, who are called unto the inheritance which is eternal.

²³ and let us persevere in the confession of our hope, and not swerve; for faithful is He who hath promised us.

³² Be mindful, therefore, of the first days, those in which ye received baptism; and when ye sustained a great agony of sufferings, with ignominy and affliction;

³⁴ And it afflicted you on account of them who were bound; and the pillage of your goods with joy ye sustained, as knowing that ye have a possession in heaven, which is better, and passeth not away.

¹³ In faith died these all, not having gotten their promise, but from afar had beheld it, and exulted in it, and confessed that strangers they were, and sojourners in the earth.

² And let us look unto Jeshu, who hath become the chief and the perfecter of our faith; who, for the joy that was before him, endured the cross, and unto shame delivered himself, and at the right hand of the throne of Aloha hath sat down.

⁸ Jeshu Meshiha is yesterday, and to-day, and for ever.

⁵ while you are kept by the power of Aloha and through faith, unto the salvation which is prepared to be revealed in the last times;

¹⁰ That salvation which the prophets investigated when they prophesied concerning the grace which was to be given unto you,

¹⁵ But be holy in all your conversations, as he is holy who calleth you; ¹⁶ because it is written, Be ye holy, as I also am holy.

²⁰ who was afore-separated for this from before the foundations of the world, and hath been manifested in these last times for you,

²⁰ who was afore-separated for this from before the foundations of the world, and hath been manifested in these last times for you, ²¹ who by him [Dabideh.] believe in Aloha, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory, that your faith and your hope may be in Aloha. ²² Let your souls be sanctified in obedience to the truth, and be filled with the charity which respecteth not persons, that with a pure heart and perfect you may love one another,

⁹ But you are a chosen race, who minister as priests to the kingdom,[Damkahno lemalkutho.] a holy people, a congregation redeemed to announce the praises of him who hath called you from darkness to his transcendant light:

²⁰ For they who on account of their offences suffer tribulations, what praise have they? But when you do well and they afflict you, and you endure, then doth your praise become great with Aloha. ²¹ For unto this have you been called; because the Meshiha also hath died for us, and left us this example, that in his steps we may walk.

¹⁰ And every man of you the gift which he hath received from Aloha, let him minister thereof unto his neighbours as good stewards of the various grace of Aloha. ¹¹ Whoever shall speak, as the word of Aloha let him speak and whoever ministereth, (he shall minister) as from the power which Aloha giveth to him, that in every thing which you do Aloha may be glorified through Jeshu Meshiha, whose are the glory and honour to the age of ages. Amen.

¹³ but rejoice that you are partakers of the sufferings of the Meshiha, that so also at the revelation of his glory you may rejoice and exult. ¹⁴ And if you be reviled for the sake of the name of the Meshiha, you are happy; for the Spirit of the glory of Aloha resteth upon you. ¹⁵ Only, let no man of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as a doer of evils. ¹⁶ But if he suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify Aloha in that very name.

¹⁹ Wherefore, let them who suffer according to the will of Aloha commend to him their souls in good works, as unto the Faithful Creator.

¹ SHEMUN PETROS, a servant of Jeshu Meshiha, to those who by faith the same in preciousness [Or, honour.] with us have been made equal, through the righteousness of our Lord and our Redeemer Jeshu Meshiha.

³ As He who all (things) which of the divine power are unto life and godliness [Dechalath Aloha, the fear, reverence, or worship of Aloha.] hath given (us), through the knowledge of Him who hath called us unto the glory of him and of virtue,[Or, excellence. B'teshbuchtho dileh va-damyathrutho.]

³ As He who all (things) which of the divine power are unto life and godliness [Dechalath Aloha, the fear, reverence, or worship of Aloha.] hath given (us), through the knowledge of Him who hath called us unto the glory of him and of virtue,[Or, excellence. B'teshbuchtho dileh va-damyathrutho.] ⁴ by annunciations [Nunciatio, promissum: from, to know, make known.] great and precious which he hath given to you, that by them you may be partakers of the divine nature, while you escape the corruption of the lusts which are in the world;

¹¹ for so abundantly shall be given to you the entrance of the eternal kingdom of our Lord and our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha. ¹² Wherefore it doth not weary me to remind you constantly of these, that you may know well, and be established upon this truth.

²⁰ For if [when] they have escaped from the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, with those very things entangled they are again over-come, their end becomes worse than the beginning.

¹ Now this, my beloved, the second epistle I write to you; in both of which I awaken to remembrance your fair [Reyoncun shaphira.] mind. ² That you may remember the words which were before spoken by the holy prophets, and the commandments of our Lord and our Saviour (delivered) by the apostles.

¹⁸ But increase in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, and (of) Aloha the Father, Whose be glory both now, and in all time, and to the days eternal. Amen.

² And the life was manifested, and we have seen, and testify, and preach to you the eternal life which was with the Father, and was manifested to us.

⁴ And these write we unto you, that our joy which is in you may be complete.

²⁵ And this is the promise which he promised to us, eternal life.

¹⁴ And we have seen and we testify that the Father hath sent his Son, the Redeemer of the world.

¹⁸ Fear in love is not: but perfect love hath cast out fear, because fear is in terror.[Bequento, In periculo.- SCHAFF. Root, Quenat, vitavit, extimuit vehementer. Fabricius has in perturbatione.] He who feareth is not perfect in love.

¹¹ And this is the testimony, That the life which is eternal, Aloha hath given to us, and this life is in his Son.

¹¹ And this is the testimony, That the life which is eternal, Aloha hath given to us, and this life is in his Son. ¹² Every one who apprehendeth [Cul d'achid labro.] the Son, apprehendeth also life; and every one who apprehendeth not the Son of Aloha, hath not life.

¹² Every one who apprehendeth [Cul d'achid labro.] the Son, apprehendeth also life; and every one who apprehendeth not the Son of Aloha, hath not life. ¹³ These I have written to you, that you may know that you have the life which is eternal, who believe in the name of the Son of Aloha.

³ My beloved, while giving all diligence to write to you concerning our common salvation, it is needful for me to write to you, exhorting you (in particular) to do battle [D'aguno tebadun.] for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.

⁵ But I will to remind you, though all of you know, that Aloha, when once the people from Metsreen he had redeemed, yet afterward [Or, secondly.] destroyed them who believed not.

²⁴ But to him who is able to keep you without falling and without spot, and to establish you without blemish,

² who attested the word of Aloha and the testimony of Jeshu Meshiha, and all which he beheld.

⁹ I, Juhanon your brother, and your fellow-sharer in the affliction, and in the patience, which are in Jeshu Meshiha, was in the island which is called Pathamon, for the word of Aloha and for the testimony of Jeshu Meshiha.

¹ To the angel of the church which is in Ephesos, write: These saith the Holder of all,[Achid Kul.] and of the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven candlesticks of gold.

⁷ He who hath ears, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him who overcometh I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.

²⁵ but that which you have, hold, until I come.

³ Remember then how thou hast received, and hearken, and keep, and repent. And if then thou wilt not awake, I will come against thee as the thief, and thou shalt not know in what hour I come against thee.

¹¹ I come quickly. Hold that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

¹⁷ for it is the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne who will feed them, and will lead them unto fountains of living waters, and Aloha will wipe away every tear from their eyes.

¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of his testimony. But they loved not their lives unto death.

⁸ And all those who inhabit on the earth will worship him, they whose name is not written in the book of life of the Lamb from the foundation of the world.

⁸ The beast of prey which thou seest, was, and is not; and will ascend from the abyss, and go into perdition: and they who dwell on the earth will admire, they whose name is not written in the book of life from the foundations of the world, while they see the beast of prey, who was, and is not, and draweth nigh.

¹ AFTER these I saw another angel descending from heaven, having great power; and the earth brightened with his glory.

¹⁰ And I fell before his feet to worship; and he said to me, See (that thou do it) not; thy fellowservant (am I), and of thy brethren who have the testimony of Jeshu. Aloha worship; for the testimony of Jeshu is the spirit of prophecy.

¹⁴ And death and shiul were cast into the lake of fire, which is the second death.

⁴ And every tear shall be wiped away from their eyes, and death shall be no more; nor sorrow, nor clamour, nor pain, shall be any more; for the former things are passed away.

¹ AND he showed me a river of waters of life, clear as crystal, coming forth from the throne of Aloha and of the Lamb. ² In the midst of the wide street of it, and by the river, here and there, (was) the tree of life, which produced twelve fruits, in every month giving each one its fruit. And the leaves of the tree (are) for the healing of the nations.

¹⁴ Blessed are they who do his commandments, that they may have authority to the tree of life, and by the gates may enter into the city.

¹⁷ AND THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE SAY, COME! AND HE WHO HEARETH SHALL SAY, COME! AND HE WHO THIRSTETH MAY COME, AND HE WHO WILLETH, TO TAKE THE WATERS OF LIFE FREELY.
