1 For|strong="G1063" yourselves|strong="G4771", brethren|strong="G3588", know|strong="G1492" our|strong="G4314" entering in|strong="G1096" unto|strong="G4314" you|strong="G5210", that|strong="G3754" it|strong="G3754" hath|strong="G3588" not|strong="G3756" been|strong="G1096" found|strong="G1096" vain|strong="G2756":
2 but|strong="G2532" having|strong="G2532" suffered|strong="G4310" before|strong="G4314", and|strong="G2532" been|strong="G2532" shamefully entreated|strong="G5195", as|strong="G2531" ye|strong="G5210" know|strong="G1492", at|strong="G1722" Philippi|strong="G5375", we|strong="G2249" waxed|strong="G2532" bold|strong="G3955" in|strong="G1722" our|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" to|strong="G4314" speak|strong="G2980" unto|strong="G4314" you|strong="G5210" the|strong="G1722" gospel|strong="G2098" of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" in|strong="G1722" much|strong="G4183" conflict.
3 For|strong="G1063" our|strong="G1722" exhortation|strong="G3874" is not|strong="G3756" of|strong="G1537" error|strong="G4106", nor|strong="G3761" of|strong="G1537" uncleanness, nor|strong="G3761" in|strong="G1722" guile|strong="G1388":
4 but|strong="G2316" even|strong="G2531" as|strong="G5613" we|strong="G2249" have|strong="G1473" been|strong="G3756" approved|strong="G1381" of|strong="G5259" God|strong="G2316" to|strong="G3756" be|strong="G3756" intrusted with|strong="G2980" the|strong="G3588" gospel|strong="G2098", so|strong="G3779" we|strong="G2249" speak|strong="G2980"; not|strong="G3756" as|strong="G5613" pleasing men|strong="G3588", but|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" which|strong="G3588" proveth our|strong="G2316" hearts|strong="G2588".
5 For|strong="G1063" neither|strong="G3777" at|strong="G1722" any|strong="G1492" time|strong="G4218" were|strong="G1096" we|strong="G1063" found|strong="G1096" using words|strong="G3056" of|strong="G3056" flattery, as|strong="G2531" ye|strong="G1063" know|strong="G1492", nor|strong="G3777" a|strong="G1096" cloke|strong="G4392" of|strong="G3056" covetousness|strong="G4124", God|strong="G2316" is|strong="G2316" witness|strong="G3144";
6 nor|strong="G3777" seeking|strong="G2212" glory|strong="G1391" of|strong="G1537" men|strong="G1722", neither|strong="G3777" from|strong="G1537" you|strong="G5210", nor|strong="G3777" from|strong="G1537" others, when|strong="G5613" we|strong="G5613" might|strong="G1410" have|strong="G1510" been|strong="G1510" burdensome, as|strong="G5613" apostles of|strong="G1537" Christ|strong="G5547".
7 But|strong="G1437" we|strong="G1437" were|strong="G1510" gentle|strong="G2261" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" midst|strong="G3319" of|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210", as|strong="G5613" when|strong="G5613" a|strong="G1096" nurse|strong="G5162" cherisheth|strong="G2282" her|strong="G1437" own|strong="G1438" children|strong="G5043":
8 even|strong="G2532" so|strong="G3779", being|strong="G1096" affectionately desirous|strong="G2442" of|strong="G2316" you|strong="G5210", we|strong="G2249" were|strong="G3588" well|strong="G2532" pleased|strong="G2106" to|strong="G2532" impart|strong="G3330" unto|strong="G3756" you|strong="G5210", not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G2532" gospel|strong="G2098" of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" only|strong="G3440", but|strong="G2532" also|strong="G2532" our|strong="G2316" own|strong="G1438" souls|strong="G5590", because|strong="G1360" ye|strong="G5210" were|strong="G3588" become|strong="G1096" very|strong="G2532" dear to|strong="G2532" us|strong="G2249".
9 For|strong="G1063" ye|strong="G5210" remember|strong="G3421", brethren|strong="G3588", our|strong="G2316" labour|strong="G2873" and|strong="G2532" travail|strong="G3449": working|strong="G2038" night|strong="G3571" and|strong="G2532" day|strong="G2250", that|strong="G3588" we|strong="G2249" might|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3361" burden|strong="G1912" any|strong="G5100" of|strong="G2250" you|strong="G5210", we|strong="G2249" preached|strong="G2784" unto|strong="G4314" you|strong="G5210" the|strong="G2532" gospel|strong="G2098" of|strong="G2250" God|strong="G2316".
10 Ye|strong="G5210" are|strong="G3588" witnesses|strong="G3144", and|strong="G2532" God|strong="G2316" also, how|strong="G5613" holily|strong="G3743" and|strong="G2532" righteously|strong="G1346" and|strong="G2532" unblameably we|strong="G2532" behaved|strong="G1096" ourselves|strong="G1096" toward you|strong="G5210" that|strong="G3588" believe|strong="G4100":
11 as|strong="G5613" ye|strong="G5210" know|strong="G1492" how|strong="G5613" we|strong="G2532" dealt with each|strong="G1538" one|strong="G1520" of|strong="G2532" you|strong="G5210", as|strong="G5613" a|strong="G5613" father|strong="G3962" with|strong="G2532" his|strong="G1438" own|strong="G1438" children|strong="G5043", exhorting|strong="G3870" you|strong="G5210", and|strong="G2532" encouraging|strong="G3870" you, and|strong="G2532" testifying,
12 to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" end|strong="G1519" that|strong="G3588" ye|strong="G5210" should|strong="G2316" walk|strong="G4043" worthily of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316", who|strong="G3588" calleth|strong="G2564" you|strong="G5210" into|strong="G1519" his|strong="G1438" own|strong="G1438" kingdom and|strong="G2532" glory|strong="G1391".
13 And|strong="G2532" for|strong="G3754" this|strong="G3778" cause|strong="G1223" we|strong="G2249" also|strong="G2532" thank|strong="G2168" God|strong="G2316" without|strong="G2532" ceasing, that|strong="G3754", when|strong="G2532" ye|strong="G5210" received|strong="G1209" from|strong="G3844" us|strong="G2249" the|strong="G1722" word|strong="G3056" of|strong="G3056" the|strong="G1722" message|strong="G3056", even the word of|strong="G3056" God|strong="G2316", ye|strong="G5210" accepted|strong="G1209" it not|strong="G3756" as the|strong="G1722" word|strong="G3056" of|strong="G3056" men|strong="G3778", but|strong="G2532", as|strong="G2531" it|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" in|strong="G1722" truth, the|strong="G1722" word|strong="G3056" of|strong="G3056" God|strong="G2316", which|strong="G3739" also|strong="G2532" worketh|strong="G1754" in|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210" that|strong="G3754" believe|strong="G4100".
14 For|strong="G1063" ye|strong="G5210", brethren|strong="G3588", became|strong="G1096" imitators|strong="G3402" of|strong="G5259" the|strong="G1722" churches|strong="G1577" of|strong="G5259" God|strong="G2316" which|strong="G3588" are|strong="G1510" in|strong="G1722" Judaea|strong="G2449" in|strong="G1722" Christ|strong="G5547" Jesus|strong="G2424": for|strong="G1063" ye|strong="G5210" also|strong="G2532" suffered|strong="G3958" the|strong="G1722" same|strong="G2532" things|strong="G3588" of|strong="G5259" your|strong="G2532" own|strong="G2398" countrymen|strong="G4853", even|strong="G2532" as|strong="G2531" they|strong="G2532" did|strong="G2532" of|strong="G5259" the|strong="G1722" Jews|strong="G2453";
15 who|strong="G3588" both|strong="G2532" killed the|strong="G2532" Lord|strong="G2962" Jesus|strong="G2424" and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" prophets|strong="G4396", and|strong="G2532" drave|strong="G2316" out|strong="G2532" us|strong="G2249", and|strong="G2532" please not|strong="G3361" God|strong="G2316", and|strong="G2532" are|strong="G3588" contrary|strong="G1727" to|strong="G2532" all|strong="G3956" men|strong="G3956";
16 forbidding|strong="G2967" us|strong="G1519" to|strong="G1519" speak|strong="G2980" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" Gentiles|strong="G1484" that|strong="G2443" they|strong="G1161" may|strong="G2443" be|strong="G1519" saved|strong="G4982"; to|strong="G1519" fill|strong="G1519" up|strong="G1519" their|strong="G1438" sins alway|strong="G3842": but|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1519" wrath|strong="G3709" is|strong="G3588" come|strong="G5348" upon|strong="G1909" them|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" uttermost|strong="G5056".
17 But|strong="G1161" we|strong="G2249", brethren|strong="G3588", being|strong="G1722" bereaved of|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210" for|strong="G4314" a|strong="G1722" short|strong="G3588" season|strong="G2540", in|strong="G1722" presence|strong="G4383", not|strong="G3756" in|strong="G1722" heart|strong="G2588", endeavoured|strong="G4704" the|strong="G1722" more|strong="G4183" exceedingly|strong="G4056" to|strong="G4314" see|strong="G3708" your|strong="G3708" face|strong="G4383" with|strong="G1722" great|strong="G4183" desire|strong="G1939":
18 because|strong="G1360" we|strong="G2249" would|strong="G2309" fain have|strong="G2309" come|strong="G2064" unto|strong="G4314" you|strong="G5210", I|strong="G1473" Paul|strong="G3972" once and|strong="G2532" again|strong="G1364"; and|strong="G2532" Satan|strong="G4567" hindered|strong="G1465" us|strong="G2249".

20 For|strong="G1063" ye|strong="G5210" are|strong="G1510" our|strong="G2532" glory|strong="G1391" and|strong="G2532" our|strong="G2532" joy|strong="G5479".
