2 Corinthians 3:7--5:10

But
<1161>

if
<1487>

the ministration
<1248>

of death
<2288>_,

written
<1722> <1121>

[and] engraven
<1795> (5772)

in
<1722>

stones
<3037>_,

was
<1096> (5675)

glorious
<1722> <1391>_,

so
<5620>

that the children
<5207>

of Israel
<2474>

could
<1410> (5738)

not
<3361>

stedfastly behold
<816> (5658)

the face
<1519> <4383>

of Moses
<3475>

for
<1223>

the glory
<1391>

of his
<846>

countenance
<4383>_;

which
<3588>

[glory] was to be done away
<2673> (5746)_:

How
<4459>

shall
<1248> (0)

not
<3780>

the ministration
<1248>

of the spirit
<4151>

be
<2071> (5704)

rather
<3123> <1722>

glorious
<1391>_?

For
<1063>

if
<1487>

the ministration
<1248>

of condemnation
<2633>

[be] glory
<1391>_,

much
<4183>

more
<3123>

doth the ministration
<1248>

of righteousness
<1343>

exceed
<4052> (5719)

in
<1722>

glory
<1391>_.

For
<1063>

even
<2532>

that which was made glorious
<1392> (5769)

had no
<3761>

glory
<1392> (5772)

in
<1722>

this
<5129>

respect
<3313>_,

by reason
<1752>

of the glory
<1391>

that excelleth
<5235> (5723)_.

For
<1063>

if
<1487>

that which is done away
<2673> (5746)

[was] glorious
<1223> <1391>_,

much
<4183>

more
<3123>

that which remaineth
<3306> (5723)

[is] glorious
<1722> <1391>_.

Seeing then
<3767>

that we have
<2192> (5723)

such
<5108>

hope
<1680>_,

we use
<5530> (5736)

great
<4183>

plainness of speech
<3954>_:

{plainness: or, boldness}

And
<2532>

not
<3756>

as
<2509>

Moses
<3475>_,

[which] put
<5087> (5707)

a vail
<2571>

over
<1909>

his
<1438>

face
<4383>_,

that
<4314>

the children
<5207>

of Israel
<2474>

could
<816> (0)

not
<3361>

stedfastly look
<816> (5658)

to
<1519>

the end
<5056>

of that which is abolished
<2673> (5746)_:

But
<235>

their
<846>

minds
<3540>

were blinded
<4456> (5681)_:

for
<1063>

until
<891>

this day
<4594>

remaineth
<3306> (5719)

the same
<846>

vail
<2571>

untaken
<3361>

away
<343> (5746)

in
<1909>

the reading
<320>

of the old
<3820>

testament
<1242>_;

which
<3748>

[vail] is done away
<2673> (5743)

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_.

But
<235>

even
<2193>

unto this day
<4594>_,

when
<2259>

Moses
<3475>

is read
<314> (5743)_,

the vail
<2571>

is upon
<2749> (5736) <1909>

their
<846>

heart
<2588>_.

Nevertheless
<1161>

when
<2259>

it
<302>

shall turn
<1994> (5661)

to
<4314>

the Lord
<2962>_,

the vail
<2571>

shall be taken away
<4014> (5743)_.

Now
<1161>

the Lord
<2962>

is
<2076> (5748)

that Spirit
<4151>_:

and
<1161>

where
<3757>

the Spirit
<4151>

of the Lord
<2962>

[is], there
<1563>

[is] liberty
<1657>_.

But
<1161>

we
<2249>

all
<3956>_,

with open
<343> (5772)

face
<4383>

beholding as in a glass
<2734> (5734)

the glory
<1391>

of the Lord
<2962>_,

are changed
<3339> (5743)

into the same
<846>

image
<1504>

from
<575>

glory
<1391>

to
<1519>

glory
<1391>_,

[even] as
<2509>

by
<575>

the Spirit
<4151>

of the Lord
<2962>_.

{by the...: or, of the Lord the Spirit}

Therefore seeing
<1223> <5124>

we have
<2192> (5723)

this
<5026>

ministry
<1248>_,

as
<2531>

we have received mercy
<1653> (5681)_,

we faint
<1573> (5719)

not
<3756>_;

But
<235>

have renounced
<550> (5639)

the hidden things
<2927>

of dishonesty
<152>_,

not
<3361>

walking
<4043> (5723)

in
<1722>

craftiness
<3834>_,

nor
<3366>

handling
<1389> (0)

the word
<3056>

of God
<2316>

deceitfully
<1389> (5723)_;

but
<235>

by manifestation
<5321>

of the truth
<225>

commending
<4921> (5723)

ourselves
<1438>

to
<4314>

every
<3956>

man's
<444>

conscience
<4893>

in the sight
<1799>

of God
<2316>_.

{dishonesty: Gr. shame}

But
<1161>

if
<1499>

our
<2257>

gospel
<2098>

be
<2076> (5748)

hid
<2572> (5772)_,

it is
<2076> (5748)

hid
<2572> (5772)

to
<1722>

them that are lost
<622> (5730)_:

In
<1722>

whom
<3739>

the god
<2316>

of this
<5127>

world
<165>

hath blinded
<5186> (5656)

the minds
<3540>

of them which believe not
<571>_,

lest
<1519> <3361>

the light
<5462>

of the glorious
<1391>

gospel
<2098>

of Christ
<5547>_,

who
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

the image
<1504>

of God
<2316>_,

should shine
<826> (5658)

unto them
<846>_.

For
<1063>

we preach
<2784> (5719)

not
<3756>

ourselves
<1438>_,

but
<235>

Christ
<5547>

Jesus
<2424>

the Lord
<2962>_;

and
<1161>

ourselves
<1438>

your
<5216>

servants
<1401>

for
<1223> (0)

Jesus
<2424>_'

sake
<1223>_.

For
<3754>

God
<2316>_,

who
<3588>

commanded
<2036> (5631)

the light
<5457>

to shine
<2989> (5658)

out of
<1537>

darkness
<4655>_,

<3739>

hath shined
<2989> (5656)

in
<1722>

our
<2257>

hearts
<2588>_,

to
<4314>

[give] the light
<5462>

of the knowledge
<1108>

of the glory
<1391>

of God
<2316>

in
<1722>

the face
<4383>

of Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_.

{hath: Gr. is he who hath}

But
<1161>

we have
<2192> (5719)

this
<5126>

treasure
<2344>

in
<1722>

earthen
<3749>

vessels
<4632>_,

that
<2443>

the excellency
<5236>

of the power
<1411>

may be
<5600> (5753)

of God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

not
<3361>

of
<1537>

us
<2257>_.

[We are] troubled
<2346> (5746)

on
<1722>

every side
<3956>_,

yet
<235>

not
<3756>

distressed
<4729> (5746)_;

[we are] perplexed
<639> (5734)_,

but
<235>

not
<3756>

in despair
<1820> (5740)_;

{in despair: or, altogether without help, or, means}

Persecuted
<1377> (5746)_,

but
<235>

not
<3756>

forsaken
<1459> (5746)_;

cast down
<2598> (5746)_,

but
<235>

not
<3756>

destroyed
<622> (5730)_;

Always
<3842>

bearing about
<4064> (5723)

in
<1722>

the body
<4983>

the dying
<3500>

of the Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>_,

that
<2443>

the life
<2222>

also
<2532>

of Jesus
<2424>

might be made manifest
<5319> (5686)

in
<1722>

our
<2257>

body
<4983>_.

For we
<2249>

which
<3588>

live
<2198> (5723)

are
<3860> (0)

alway
<104> <1063>

delivered
<3860> (5743)

unto
<1519>

death
<2288>

for
<1223> (0)

Jesus
<2424>_'

sake
<1223>_,

that
<2443>

the life
<2222>

also
<2532>

of Jesus
<2424>

might be made manifest
<5319> (5686)

in
<1722>

our
<2257>

mortal
<2349>

flesh
<4561>_.

So
<5620>

then
<3303>

death
<2288>

worketh
<1754> (5731)

in
<1722>

us
<2254>_,

but
<1161>

life
<2222>

in
<1722>

you
<5213>_.

<1161>@ We having
<2192> (5723)

the same
<846>

spirit
<4151>

of faith
<4102>_,

according as
<2596>

it is written
<1125> (5772)_,

I believed
<4100> (5656)_,

and therefore
<1352>

have I spoken
<2980> (5656)_;

we
<2249>

also
<2532>

believe
<4100> (5719)_,

and
<2532>

therefore
<1352>

speak
<2980> (5719)_;

Knowing
<1492> (5761)

that
<3754>

he which raised up
<1453> (5660)

the Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>

shall raise up
<1453> (5692)

us
<2248>

also
<2532>

by
<1223>

Jesus
<2424>_,

and
<2532>

shall present
<3936> (5692)

[us] with
<4862>

you
<5213>_.

For
<1063>

all things
<3956>

[are] for
<1223> (0)

your
<5209>

sakes
<1223>_,

that
<2443>

the abundant
<4121> (5660)

grace
<5485>

might
<4052> (0)

through
<1223>

the thanksgiving
<2169>

of many
<4119>

redound
<4052> (5661)

to
<1519>

the glory
<1391>

of God
<2316>_.

For which cause
<1352>

we faint
<1573> (5719)

not
<3756>_;

but
<235>

though
<1499>

our
<2257>

outward
<1854>

man
<444>

perish
<1311> (5743)_,

yet
<235>

the inward
<2081>

[man] is renewed
<341> (5743)

day
<2250>

by
<2532>

day
<2250>_.

For
<1063>

our
<2257>

light
<1645>

affliction
<2347>_,

which
<3588>

is but for a moment
<3910>_,

worketh
<2716> (5736)

for us
<2254>

a far
<2596> <5236>

more exceeding
<1519> <5236>

[and] eternal
<166>

weight
<922>

of glory
<1391>_;

While
<4648> (0)

we
<2257>

look
<4648> (0)

not
<3361>

at
<4648> (5723)

the things which are seen
<991> (5746)_,

but
<235>

at the things which are
<991> (0)

not
<3361>

seen
<991> (5746)_:

for
<1063>

the things which are seen
<991> (5746)

[are] temporal
<4340>_;

but
<1161>

the things which are
<991> (0)

not
<3361>

seen
<991> (5746)

[are] eternal
<166>_.

For
<1063>

we know
<1492> (5758)

that
<3754>

if
<1437>

our
<2257>

earthly
<1919>

house
<3614>

of [this] tabernacle
<4636>

were dissolved
<2647> (5686)_,

we have
<2192> (5719)

a building
<3619>

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_,

an house
<3614>

not made with hands
<886>_,

eternal
<166>

in
<1722>

the heavens
<3772>_.

For
<2532> <1063>

in
<1722>

this
<5129>

we groan
<4727> (5719)_,

earnestly desiring
<1971> (5723)

to be clothed upon
<1902> (5670)

with our
<2257>

house
<3613>

which
<3588>

is from
<1537>

heaven
<3772>_:

If
<1489>

so
<2532>

be that being clothed
<1746> (5671)

we shall
<2147> (0)

not
<3756>

be found
<2147> (5701)

naked
<1131>_.

For
<2532> <1063>

we that are
<5607> (5752)

in
<1722>

[this] tabernacle
<4636>

do groan
<4727> (5719)_,

being burdened
<916> (5746)_:

not
<3756>

for that
<1894>

we would
<2309> (5719)

be unclothed
<1562> (5670)_,

but
<235>

clothed upon
<1902> (5670)_,

that
<2443>

mortality
<2349>

might be swallowed up
<2666> (5686)

of
<5259>

life
<2222>_.

Now
<1161>

he that hath wrought
<2716> (5666)

us
<2248>

for
<1519>

the selfsame thing
<846> <5124>

[is] God
<2316>_,

who
<3588>

also
<2532>

hath given
<1325> (5631)

unto us
<2254>

the earnest
<728>

of the Spirit
<4151>_.

Therefore
<3767> <2532>

[we are] always
<3842>

confident
<2292> (5723)_,

knowing
<1492> (5761)

that
<3754>_,

whilst we are at home
<1736> (5723)

in
<1722>

the body
<4983>_,

we are absent
<1553> (5719)

from
<575>

the Lord
<2962>_:

(For
<1063>

we walk
<4043> (5719)

by
<1223>

faith
<4102>_,

not
<3756>

by
<1223>

sight
<1491>:)

We are confident
<2292> (5719)_,

[I say], and
<1161> <2532>

willing
<2106> (5719)

rather
<3123>

to be absent
<1553> (5658)

from
<1537>

the body
<4983>_,

and
<2532>

to be present
<1736> (5658)

with
<4314>

the Lord
<2962>_.

Wherefore
<1352>

we labour
<5389> (5736)_,

that
<2532>_,

whether
<1535>

present
<1736> (5723)

or
<1535>

absent
<1553> (5723)_,

we may be
<1511> (5750)

accepted
<2101>

of him
<846>_.

{labour: or, endeavour}

For
<1063>

we
<2248>

must
<1163> (5748)

all
<3956>

appear
<5319> (5683)

before
<1715>

the judgment seat
<968>

of Christ
<5547>_;

that
<2443>

every one
<1538>

may receive
<2865> (5672)

the things [done] in
<1223>

[his] body
<4983>_,

according
<4314>

to that
<3739>

he hath done
<4238> (5656)_,

whether
<1535>

[it be] good
<18>

or
<1535>

bad
<2556>_.
