And we have known that to those loving God all things do work together for good, to those who are called according to purpose;

who, having ceased to feel, themselves did give up to the lasciviousness, for the working of all uncleanness in greediness;

Your women in the assemblies let them be silent, for it hath not been permitted to them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith;

if an <FI>unknown<Fi> tongue any one do speak, by two, or at the most, by three, and in turn, and let one interpret;

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

for he who is speaking in an <FI>unknown<Fi> tongue--to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;

have ye not known that he who is joined to the harlot is one body? `for they shall be--saith He--the two for one flesh.'

have ye not known that the unrighteous the reign of God shall not inherit? be not led astray; neither whoremongers, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

Whoredom is actually heard of among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the nations--as that one hath the wife of the father! --

`If ye love me, my commands keep,

for he shall be great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink he may not drink, and of the Holy Spirit he shall be full, even from his mother's womb;

`I indeed do baptize you with water to reformation, but he who after me is coming is mightier than I, of whom I am not worthy to bear the sandals, he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,

And there was given to me a reed like to a rod, and the messenger stood, saying, `Rise, and measure the sanctuary of God, and the altar, and those worshipping in it; — read the full passage →

And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

The love is long-suffering, it is kind, the love doth not envy, the love doth not vaunt itself, is not puffed up,

pious, and fearing God with all his house, doing also many kind acts to the people, and beseeching God always,

And Ananias went away, and did enter into the house, and having put upon him <FI>his<Fi> hands, said, `Saul, brother, the Lord hath sent me--Jesus who did appear to thee in the way in which thou wast coming--that thou mayest see again, and mayest be filled with the Holy Spirit.'

Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;

through which the then world, by water having been deluged, was destroyed;

neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but patterns becoming of the flock,

so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.

because of this, these things--being absent--I write, that being present, I may not treat <FI>any<Fi> sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down.

in every thing being enriched to all liberality, which doth work through us thanksgiving to God,

if so be that, having clothed ourselves, we shall not be found naked,

for he who <FI>is<Fi> in the Lord--having been called a servant--is the Lord's freedman: in like manner also he the freeman, having been called, is servant of Christ:

and labour, working with <FI>our<Fi> own hands; being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer;

and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.

and having been fully persuaded that what He hath promised He is able also to do:

being declared righteous freely by His grace through the redemption that <FI>is<Fi> in Christ Jesus,

for God did so love the world, that His Son--the only begotten--He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during. — read the full passage →

and he was teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

And in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar--Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother, tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene--

and Peter said unto them, `Reform, and be baptized each of you on the name of Jesus Christ, to remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,

for nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God;

And the fathers! provoke not your children, but nourish them in the instruction and admonition of the Lord.

and saying, `Reform, for come nigh hath the reign of the heavens,'

honour thy father and mother,

lo, I Paul do say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing;

and he who is prophesying to men doth speak edification, and exhortation, and comfort;

have ye not known that we shall judge messengers? why not then the things of life?

for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:

and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

and having been made perfect, he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during,

that they may make the young women sober-minded, to be lovers of <FI>their<Fi> husbands, lovers of <FI>their<Fi> children,
