King
Agrippa, believest
thou the prophets? I know that
thou believest.
King
Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know you do.”
Then
Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost
thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
Then
Agrippa said to Paul, “Can you
persuade me in such a short time to become a Christian?”
And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.
“Short time or long,” Paul replied, “I wish to God that not only you but all who hear me this day may become what I am, except for these chains.”
And when the south wind
blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by
Crete.
When a gentle south wind began to blow, they
thought they had their opportunity. So they
weighed anchor and sailed along,
hugging the coast of
Crete.
Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And look, God has granted you the lives of all who sail with you.’
And as the
shipmen were about to
flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as
though they would have cast anchors out of the
foreship,
Meanwhile, the sailors attempted to escape from the ship. Pretending to lower anchors from the bow, they let the
lifeboat down into the sea.
And when the barbarians saw the
venomous beast
hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom,
though he hath escaped the sea, yet
vengeance suffereth not to live.
When the islanders saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “Surely this man is a murderer. Although he was saved from the sea, Justice has not allowed him to live.”
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
After three days, he called together the leaders of the Jews. When they had gathered, he said to them, “Brothers, although I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, I was taken prisoner in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans.
But when the Jews spake against it, I was
constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to
accuse my nation of.
But when the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, even though I have no charge to bring against my nation.
But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
But we consider your views worth hearing, because we know that people everywhere are speaking against this sect.”
Therefore
thou art
inexcusable, O man,
whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein
thou judgest another,
thou condemnest
thyself; for
thou that judgest doest the same things.
You, therefore, have no
excuse, you who pass judgment on another. For on whatever grounds you judge the other, you are
condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?
For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law.
Which
shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their
thoughts the mean while
accusing or else
excusing one another;)
So they show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their
thoughts either
accusing or defending them
Behold,
thou art called a
Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy
boast of God,
And art
confident that
thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
if you are
convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those in darkness,
Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest
thou not
thyself?
thou that preachest a man should not
steal,
dost thou steal?
Thou that makest thy
boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest
thou God?
You who
boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law?
God
forbid:
yea, let God be true, but every man a
liar; as it is written, That
thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when
thou art judged.
Certainly not! Let God be true and every man a
liar. As it is written: “So that You may be proved right when You speak and victorious when You judge.”
And he received the sign of
circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being
uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe,
though they be not
circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
And he received the sign of
circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still
uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but are not
circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them.
(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.” He is our father in the presence of God, in whom he believed, the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being what does not yet exist.
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet
peradventure for a good man some would even
dare to die.
Very rarely will
anyone die for a righteous man,
though for a good man someone might possibly
dare to die.
But God be
thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
But
thanks be to God that,
though you once were slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were committed.
So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an
adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no
adulteress,
though she be married to another man.
So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an
adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an
adulteress, even if she marries another man.
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God
forbid.
Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known
lust, except the law had said,
Thou shalt not
covet.
What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of
coveting if the law had not said, “Do not
covet.”
Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why
doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”
Nay but, O man, who art
thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast
thou made me thus?
But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why did You make me like this?”
Esaias also crieth concerning Israel,
Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a
remnant shall be saved:
Isaiah
cries out concerning Israel: “
Though the number of the Israelites is like the sand of the sea, only the
remnant will be saved.
That if
thou shalt
confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
that if you
confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven
thousand men, who have not bowed the
knee to the image of
Baal.
And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven
thousand men who have not bowed the
knee to
Baal.”
And if some of the branches be broken off, and
thou, being a wild olive tree,
wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
Now if some branches have been broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, have been
grafted in among the others to share in the
nourishment of the olive root,
Boast not against the branches. But if
thou boast,
thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
do not
boast over those branches. If you do, remember this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be
grafted in.”
Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
That is correct: They were broken off because of unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be
arrogant, but be afraid.
Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
Take notice, therefore, of the kindness and severity of God: severity to those who fell, but kindness to you, if you continue in His kindness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
For if
thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and
wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
For if you were cut from a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were
grafted into one that is cultivated, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be
grafted into their own olive tree!
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he
thirst, give him drink: for in so doing
thou shalt
heap coals of fire on his head.
On the contrary, “If your enemy is
hungry, feed him; if he is
thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will
heap burning coals on his head.”
For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil.
Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and
thou shalt have praise of the same:
For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his
approval.
For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if
thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a
revenger to
execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not carry the sword in vain. He is God’s servant, an agent of
retribution to the
wrongdoer.
For this,
Thou shalt not commit
adultery,
Thou shalt not kill,
Thou shalt not
steal,
Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Thou shalt not
covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly
comprehended in this saying, namely,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
thyself.
Who art
thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth.
Yea, he shall be
holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
But why
dost thou judge thy brother? or why
dost thou set at
nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you
belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.
But if thy brother be
grieved with thy meat, now walkest
thou not
charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
If your brother is distressed by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother, for whom Christ died.
Hast
thou faith? have it to
thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
Keep your belief about such matters between
yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not
condemn himself by what he approves.
For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
For who among men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
And again, “The Lord knows that the
thoughts of the wise are
futile.”
For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast
thou that
thou didst not receive? now if
thou didst receive it, why
dost thou glory, as if
thou hadst not received it?
For who makes you so superior? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you
boast as
though you did not?
For
though ye have ten
thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have
begotten you through the gospel.
Even if you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.
Now some are
puffed up, as
though I would not come to you.
Some of you have become
arrogant, as if I were not coming to you.
For I
verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as
though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
Although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.
For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
Were you a slave when you were called? Do not let it
concern you—but if you can gain your freedom, take the opportunity.
Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
Are you committed to a wife? Do not seek to be released. Are you free of commitment? Do not look for a wife.
But and if
thou marry,
thou hast not
sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not
sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I
spare you.
But if you do marry, you have not
sinned. And if a virgin marries, she has not
sinned. But those who marry will face troubles in this life, and I want to
spare you this.
But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
What I am saying, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none;
And they that
weep, as
though they
wept not; and they that
rejoice, as
though they
rejoiced not; and they that
buy, as
though they possessed not;
those who
weep, as if they did not; those who are joyful, as if they were not; those who make a purchase, as if they had nothing;
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many so-called gods and lords),
For it is written in the law of Moses,
Thou shalt not
muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn.
Doth God take care for oxen?
For it is written in the Law of Moses: “Do not
muzzle an ox while it is
treading out the grain.” Is it about oxen that God is concerned?
For
though I
preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me;
yea,
woe is unto me, if I
preach not the gospel!
For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
Though I am free of obligation to
anyone, I make myself a slave to
everyone, to
win as many as possible.
And unto the Jews I became as a
Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
To the Jews I became like a
Jew, to
win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (
though I myself am not under the law), to
win those under the law.
To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
To those without the law I became like one without the law (
though I am not outside the law of God but am under the law of Christ), to
win those without the law.
Neither let us commit
fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty
thousand.
We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died.
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
The body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a
tinkling cymbal.
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a ringing
gong or a
clanging cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
If I have the gift of prophecy and can
fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have absolute faith so as to move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
And
though I
bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and
though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
If I give all I possess to the poor and
exult in the surrender of my body, but have not love, I gain nothing.
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I
thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away
childish things.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I
thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside
childish ways.
Else when
thou shalt
bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say
Amen at thy giving of
thanks, seeing he understandeth not what
thou sayest?
Otherwise, if you speak a blessing in spirit, how can someone who is
uninstructed say “
Amen” to your
thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?
You may be giving
thanks well enough, but the other one is not
edified.
Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
But in the church, I would rather speak five
coherent words to
instruct others than ten
thousand words in a tongue.
After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen
asleep.
After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living,
though some have fallen
asleep.
Thou fool, that which
thou sowest is not
quickened, except it die:
You
fool! What you
sow does not come to life unless it dies.
And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
And what you
sow is not the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or something else.
because a great door for effective work has opened to me, even
though many
oppose me.
For which cause we
faint not; but
though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh:
yea,
though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
So from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Although we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as
though God did
beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s
stead, be ye
reconciled to God.
Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as
though God were making His appeal through us. We
implore you on behalf of Christ: Be
reconciled to God.
For
though I made you
sorry with a letter, I do not
repent,
though I did
repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you
sorry,
though it were but for a season.
Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not
regret it. Although I did
regret it, I now see that my letter caused you sorrow, but only for a short time.
Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
So even
though I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did wrong or the one who was
harmed, but rather that your earnestness on our behalf would be made clear to you in the sight of God.
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.
Therefore I
thought it necessary to
exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up
beforehand your
bounty,
whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of
bounty, and not as of
covetousness.
So I
thought it necessary to
urge the brothers to visit you
beforehand and make arrangements for the
bountiful gift you had promised. This way, your gift will be prepared generously and not begrudgingly.
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
For
though we live in the flesh, we do not
wage war according to the flesh.
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
For
though I should
boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for
edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be
ashamed:
For even if I
boast somewhat excessively about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than
tearing you down, I will not be
ashamed.
For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ:
We are not
overstepping our bounds, as if we had not come to you. Indeed, we were the first to reach you with the gospel of Christ.
But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
Although I am not a polished speaker, I am certainly not lacking in knowledge. We have made this clear to you in every way possible.
I speak as concerning reproach, as
though we had been weak.
Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak
foolishly,) I am bold also.
For
though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a
fool; for I will say the truth: but now I
forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he
seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
Even if I wanted to
boast, I would not be a
fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I
refrain, so no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me,
I am become a
fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been
commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles,
though I be nothing.
I have become a
fool, but you drove me to it. In fact, you should have
commended me, since I am in no way inferior to those “
super-apostles,” even
though I am nothing.
And I will very
gladly spend and be spent for you;
though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.
And for the sake of your souls, I will most
gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?
For
though he was
crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
For He was indeed
crucified in weakness, yet He lives by God’s power. And
though we are weak in Him, yet by God’s power we will live with Him to serve you.
Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is
honest,
though we be as reprobates.
Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not that we will appear to have stood the test, but that you will do what is right, even if we appear to have failed.
But
though we, or an angel from heaven,
preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be
accursed.
But even if we or an angel from heaven should
preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a
curse!
But neither
Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be
circumcised:
Yet not even
Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be
circumcised, even
though he was a Greek.
