book: Acts

book: Acts

book: Acts

Then the commanding officer came near, arrested him, commanded him to be bound with two chains, and enquired who he was and what he had done.


book: Acts
contenido:
Some shouted one thing, and some another, amongst the crowd. When he couldn’t find out the truth because of the noise, he commanded him to be brought into the barracks.

book: Acts

book: Acts
contenido:
I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ The Lord said to me,‘Arise, and go into Damascus. There you will be told about all things which are appointed for you to do.’

book: Acts
contenido:
One Ananias, a devout man according to the law, well reported of by all the Jews who lived in Damascus,


book: Acts
contenido:
came to me, and standing by me said to me, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!’ In that very hour I looked up at him.


book: Acts
contenido:
He said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know his will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice from his mouth.

book: Acts
contenido:
the commanding officer commanded him to be brought into the barracks, ordering him to be examined by scourging, that he might know for what crime they shouted against him like that.


book: Acts
contenido:
When they had tied him up with thongs, Paul asked the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?”


book: Acts
contenido:
When the centurion heard it, he went to the commanding officer and told him, “Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman!”


book: Acts
contenido:
The commanding officer answered, “I bought my citizenship for a great price.”
Paul said, “But I was born a Roman.”


book: Acts
contenido:
Immediately those who were about to examine him departed from him, and the commanding officer also was afraid when he realised that he was a Roman, because he had bound him.


book: Acts
contenido:
But on the next day, desiring to know the truth about why he was accused by the Jews, he freed him from the bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul down and set him before them.


book: Acts
contenido:
Paul, looking steadfastly at the council, said, “Brothers, I have lived before God in all good conscience until today.”


book: Acts
contenido:
Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! Do you sit to judge me according to the law, and command me to be struck contrary to the law?”


book: Acts
contenido:
Paul said, “I didn’t know, brothers, that he was high priest. For it is written, ‘You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.’”


book: Acts
contenido:
But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Men and brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. Concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!”


book: Acts
contenido:
When he had said this, an argument arose between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the crowd was divided.


book: Acts
contenido:
For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees confess all of these.


book: Acts
contenido:
A great clamour arose, and some of the scribes of the Pharisees’ part stood up, and contended, saying, “We find no evil in this man. But if a spirit or angel has spoken to him, let’s not fight against God!”


book: Acts
contenido:
When a great argument arose, the commanding officer, fearing that Paul would be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from amongst them, and bring him into the barracks.


book: Acts
contenido:
The following night, the Lord stood by him and said,“Cheer up, Paul, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must testify also at Rome.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When it was day, some of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.


book: Acts
contenido:
They came to the chief priests and the elders, and said, “We have bound ourselves under a great curse to taste nothing until we have killed Paul.


book: Acts
contenido:
Now therefore, you with the council inform the commanding officer that he should bring him down to you tomorrow, as though you were going to judge his case more exactly. We are ready to kill him before he comes near.”


book: Acts
contenido:
But Paul’s sister’s son heard they were lying in wait, and he came and entered into the barracks and told Paul.


book: Acts
contenido:
Paul summoned one of the centurions, and said, “Bring this young man to the commanding officer, for he has something to tell him.”


book: Acts
contenido:
So he took him, and brought him to the commanding officer, and said, “Paul, the prisoner, summoned me and asked me to bring this young man to you. He has something to tell you.”


book: Acts
contenido:
The commanding officer took him by the hand, and going aside, asked him privately, “What is it that you have to tell me?”


book: Acts
contenido:
He said, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though intending to enquire somewhat more accurately concerning him.


book: Acts
contenido:
Therefore don’t yield to them, for more than forty men lie in wait for him, who have bound themselves under a curse to neither eat nor drink until they have killed him. Now they are ready, looking for the promise from you.”


book: Acts
contenido:
So the commanding officer let the young man go, charging him, “Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me.”


book: Acts
contenido:
He called to himself two of the centurions, and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, with seventy horsemen, and two hundred men armed with spears, at the third hour of the night.”


book: Acts
contenido:
He asked them to provide animals, that they might set Paul on one, and bring him safely to Felix the governor.


book: Acts
contenido:
“This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them, when I came with the soldiers and rescued him, having learnt that he was a Roman.


book: Acts
contenido:
I found him to be accused about questions of their law, but not to be charged with anything worthy of death or of imprisonment.


book: Acts
contenido:
When I was told that the Jews lay in wait for the man, I sent him to you immediately, charging his accusers also to bring their accusations against him before you. Farewell.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When they came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.


book: Acts
contenido:
When the governor had read it, he asked what province he was from. When he understood that he was from Cilicia, he said,


book: Acts
contenido:
“I will hear you fully when your accusers also arrive.” He commanded that he be kept in Herod’s palace.


book: Acts
contenido:
After five days, the high priest, Ananias, came down with certain elders and an orator, one Tertullus. They informed the governor against Paul.


book: Acts
contenido:
When he was called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, “Seeing that by you we enjoy much peace, and that prosperity is coming to this nation by your foresight,


book: Acts
contenido:
For we have found this man to be a plague, an instigator of insurrections amongst all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.


book: Acts
contenido:
When the governor had beckoned to him to speak, Paul answered, “Because I know that you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I cheerfully make my defence,


book: Acts
contenido:
seeing that you can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem.


book: Acts
contenido:
In the temple they didn’t find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the synagogues, or in the city.


book: Acts
contenido:
But this I confess to you, that after the Way, which they call a sect, so I serve the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets;


book: Acts
contenido:
having hope towards God, which these also themselves look for, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.


book: Acts
contenido:
amid which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a mob, nor with turmoil.


book: Acts
contenido:
Or else let these men themselves say what injustice they found in me when I stood before the council,


book: Acts
contenido:
unless it is for this one thing that I cried standing amongst them, ‘Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged before you today!’”


book: Acts
contenido:
But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, “When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will decide your case.”


book: Acts
contenido:
He ordered the centurion that Paul should be kept in custody, and should have some privileges, and not to forbid any of his friends to serve him or to visit him.


book: Acts
contenido:
But after some days, Felix came with Drusilla, his wife, who was a Jewess, and sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ Jesus.


book: Acts
contenido:
As he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgement to come, Felix was terrified, and answered, “Go your way for this time, and when it is convenient for me, I will summon you.”


book: Acts
contenido:
Meanwhile, he also hoped that money would be given to him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore also he sent for him more often and talked with him.


book: Acts
contenido:
But when two years were fulfilled, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and desiring to gain favour with the Jews, Felix left Paul in bonds.


book: Acts
contenido:
Festus therefore, having come into the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.


book: Acts
contenido:
Then the high priest and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul, and they begged him,


book: Acts
contenido:
asking a favour against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem; plotting to kill him on the way.


book: Acts
contenido:
However Festus answered that Paul should be kept in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart shortly.


book: Acts
contenido:
“Let them therefore”, he said, “that are in power amongst you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong in the man, let them accuse him.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When he had stayed amongst them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and on the next day he sat on the judgement seat, and commanded Paul to be brought.


book: Acts
contenido:
When he had come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing against him many and grievous charges which they could not prove,


book: Acts
contenido:
while he said in his defence, “Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I sinned at all.”


book: Acts
contenido:
But Festus, desiring to gain favour with the Jews, answered Paul and said, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem, and be judged by me there concerning these things?”


book: Acts
contenido:
But Paul said, “I am standing before Caesar’s judgement seat, where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you also know very well.


book: Acts
contenido:
For if I have done wrong and have committed anything worthy of death, I don’t refuse to die; but if none of those things is true that they accuse me of, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar!”


book: Acts
contenido:
Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you shall go.”


book: Acts
contenido:
As he stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul’s case before the king, saying, “There is a certain man left a prisoner by Felix;


book: Acts
contenido:
about whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, asking for a sentence against him.


book: Acts
contenido:
I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to give up any man to destruction before the accused has met the accusers face to face and has had opportunity to make his defence concerning the matter laid against him.


book: Acts
contenido:
When therefore they had come together here, I didn’t delay, but on the next day sat on the judgement seat and commanded the man to be brought.


book: Acts
contenido:
but had certain questions against him about their own religion, and about one Jesus, who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.


book: Acts
contenido:
Being perplexed how to enquire concerning these things, I asked whether he was willing to go to Jerusalem and there be judged concerning these matters.


book: Acts
contenido:
But when Paul had appealed to be kept for the decision of the emperor, I commanded him to be kept until I could send him to Caesar.”


book: Acts
contenido:
Agrippa said to Festus, “I also would like to hear the man myself.”
“Tomorrow,” he said, “you shall hear him.”


book: Acts
contenido:
So on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp, and they had entered into the place of hearing with the commanding officers and the principal men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.


book: Acts
contenido:
Festus said, “King Agrippa, and all men who are here present with us, you see this man about whom all the multitude of the Jews petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.


book: Acts
contenido:
But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and as he himself appealed to the emperor I determined to send him,


book: Acts
contenido:
of whom I have no certain thing to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, that, after examination, I may have something to write.


book: Acts
contenido:
For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to also specify the charges against him.”


book: Acts
contenido:
Agrippa said to Paul, “You may speak for yourself.”
Then Paul stretched out his hand, and made his defence.


book: Acts
contenido:
“I think myself happy, King Agrippa, that I am to make my defence before you today concerning all the things that I am accused by the Jews,


book: Acts
contenido:
especially because you are expert in all customs and questions which are amongst the Jews. Therefore I beg you to hear me patiently.


book: Acts
contenido:
“Indeed, all the Jews know my way of life from my youth up, which was from the beginning amongst my own nation and at Jerusalem;


book: Acts
contenido:
having known me from the first, if they are willing to testify, that after the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.


book: Acts
contenido:
which our twelve tribes, earnestly serving night and day, hope to attain. Concerning this hope I am accused by the Jews, King Agrippa!


book: Acts
contenido:
“I myself most certainly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.


book: Acts
contenido:
I also did this in Jerusalem. I both shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests, and when they were put to death I gave my vote against them.


book: Acts
contenido:
Punishing them often in all the synagogues, I tried to make them blaspheme. Being exceedingly enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.


book: Acts
contenido:
at noon, O king, I saw on the way a light from the sky, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who travelled with me.


book: Acts
contenido:
When we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language,‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’


book: Acts
contenido:
But arise, and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose: to appoint you a servant and a witness both of the things which you have seen, and of the things which I will reveal to you;


book: Acts
contenido:
to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance amongst those who are sanctified by faith in me.’


book: Acts
contenido:
but declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.


book: Acts
contenido:
Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would happen,


book: Acts
contenido:
how the Christ must suffer, and how, by the resurrection of the dead, he would be first to proclaim light both to these people and to the Gentiles.”


book: Acts
contenido:
As he thus made his defence, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are crazy! Your great learning is driving you insane!”


book: Acts
contenido:
But he said, “I am not crazy, most excellent Festus, but boldly declare words of truth and reasonableness.


book: Acts
contenido:
For the king knows of these things, to whom also I speak freely. For I am persuaded that none of these things is hidden from him, for this has not been done in a corner.


book: Acts
contenido:
Paul said, “I pray to God, that whether with little or with much, not only you, but also all that hear me today, might become such as I am, except for these bonds.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When they had withdrawn, they spoke to one another, saying, “This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band.


book: Acts
contenido:
Embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to places on the coast of Asia, we put to sea, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.


book: Acts
contenido:
The next day, we touched at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself.


book: Acts
contenido:
When we had sailed across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.


book: Acts
contenido:
When we had sailed slowly many days, and had come with difficulty opposite Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.


book: Acts
contenido:
With difficulty sailing along it we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.


book: Acts
contenido:
When much time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them


book: Acts
contenido:
and said to them, “Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.”


book: Acts
contenido:
But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul.


book: Acts
contenido:
Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking southwest and northwest.


book: Acts
contenido:
When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore.


book: Acts
contenido:
Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat.


book: Acts
contenido:
After they had hoisted it up, they used cables to help reinforce the ship. Fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis sand bars, they lowered the sea anchor, and so were driven along.


book: Acts
contenido:
When neither sun nor stars shone on us for many days, and no small storm pressed on us, all hope that we would be saved was now taken away.


book: Acts
contenido:
When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them, and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.


book: Acts
contenido:
saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’


book: Acts
contenido:
But when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven back and forth in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some land.


book: Acts
contenido:
They took soundings, and found twenty fathoms.  After a little while, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms.


book: Acts
contenido:
Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight.


book: Acts
contenido:
As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow,


book: Acts
contenido:
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, “Unless these stay in the ship, you can’t be saved.”


book: Acts
contenido:
While the day was coming on, Paul begged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.


book: Acts
contenido:
Therefore I beg you to take some food; for this is for your safety; for not a hair will perish from any of your heads.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, then he broke it and began to eat.


book: Acts
contenido:
When it was day, they didn’t recognise the land, but they noticed a certain bay with a beach, and they decided to try to drive the ship onto it.


book: Acts
contenido:
Casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time untying the rudder ropes. Hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.


book: Acts
contenido:
But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground. The bow struck and remained immovable, but the stern began to break up by the violence of the waves.


book: Acts
contenido:
But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go towards the land;


book: Acts
contenido:
and the rest should follow, some on planks, and some on other things from the ship. So they all escaped safely to the land.


book: Acts
contenido:
The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.


book: Acts
contenido:
But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.


book: Acts
contenido:
When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”


book: Acts
contenido:
But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.


book: Acts
contenido:
Now in the neighbourhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us, and courteously entertained us for three days.


book: Acts
contenido:
The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.


book: Acts
contenido:
They also honoured us with many honours, and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.


book: Acts
contenido:
After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was “The Twin Brothers.”


book: Acts
contenido:
From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,


book: Acts
contenido:
From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.


book: Acts
contenido:
When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.


book: Acts
contenido:
After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,


book: Acts
contenido:
But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.


book: Acts
contenido:
For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”


book: Acts
contenido:
They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.


book: Acts
contenido:
But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”


book: Acts
contenido:
When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.


book: Acts
contenido:
When they didn’t agree amongst themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,


book: Acts
contenido:
saying,
‘Go to this people and say,
in hearing, you will hear,
but will in no way understand.
In seeing, you will see,
but will in no way perceive.


book: Acts
contenido:
For this people’s heart has grown callous.
Their ears are dull of hearing.
Their eyes they have closed.
Lest they should see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their heart,
and would turn again,
then I would heal them.’


book: Acts
contenido:
“Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”


book: Acts
contenido:
preaching God’s Kingdom, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.


book: Rom
contenido:
who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,


book: Rom
contenido:
through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith amongst all the nations for his name’s sake;


book: Rom
contenido:
to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.


book: Rom
contenido:
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.


book: Rom
contenido:
For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,


book: Rom
contenido:
For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;


book: Rom
contenido:
that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.


book: Rom
contenido:
Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit amongst you also, even as amongst the rest of the Gentiles.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.


book: Rom
contenido:
For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”


book: Rom
contenido:
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,


book: Rom
contenido:
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse.


book: Rom
contenido:
Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.


book: Rom
contenido:
and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonoured amongst themselves;


book: Rom
contenido:
who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.


book: Rom
contenido:
For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.


book: Rom
contenido:
Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burnt in their lust towards one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.


book: Rom
contenido:
Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;


book: Rom
contenido:
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,


book: Rom
contenido:
backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,


book: Rom
contenido:
who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practise such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practise them.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practise the same things.


book: Rom
contenido:
Do you think this, O man who judges those who practise such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgement of God?


book: Rom
contenido:
Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?


book: Rom
contenido:
But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgement of God;


book: Rom
contenido:
to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honour, and incorruptibility, eternal life;


book: Rom
contenido:
but to those who are self-seeking, and don’t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath, indignation,


book: Rom
contenido:
oppression, and anguish on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.


book: Rom
contenido:
But glory, honour, and peace go to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.


book: Rom
contenido:
For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.


book: Rom
contenido:
For it isn’t the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified


book: Rom
contenido:
(for when Gentiles who don’t have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,


book: Rom
contenido:
in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts amongst themselves accusing or else excusing them)


book: Rom
contenido:
a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.


book: Rom
contenido:
You therefore who teach another, don’t you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn’t steal, do you steal?


book: Rom
contenido:
You who say a man shouldn’t commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?


book: Rom
contenido:
For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.


book: Rom
contenido:
If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?


book: Rom
contenido:
Won’t the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfils the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?


book: Rom
contenido:
For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;


book: Rom
contenido:
but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.


book: Rom
contenido:
May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written,
“that you might be justified in your words,
and might prevail when you come into judgement.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?


book: Rom
contenido:
Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), “Let’s do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned.


book: Rom
contenido:
What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin.


book: Rom
contenido:
They have all turned away.
They have together become unprofitable.
There is no one who does good,
no, not so much as one.”


book: Rom
contenido:
“Their throat is an open tomb.
With their tongues they have used deceit.”
“The poison of vipers is under their lips.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgement of God.


book: Rom
contenido:
Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.


book: Rom
contenido:
But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;


book: Rom
contenido:
even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,


book: Rom
contenido:
whom God sent to be an atoning sacrifice,  through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance;


book: Rom
contenido:
to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time; that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.


book: Rom
contenido:
Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.


book: Rom
contenido:
since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.


book: Rom
contenido:
For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.


book: Rom
contenido:
Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works,


book: Rom
contenido:
Is this blessing then pronounced on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.


book: Rom
contenido:
How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.


book: Rom
contenido:
He received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they might be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be accounted to them.


book: Rom
contenido:
He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.


book: Rom
contenido:
For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he should be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.

contenido:
For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.


book: Rom
contenido:
As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.”  This is in the presence of him whom he believed: God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were.


book: Rom
contenido:
Besides hope, Abraham in hope believed, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So will your offspring be.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Without being weakened in faith, he didn’t consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb.


book: Rom
contenido:
Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God,


book: Rom
contenido:
but for our sake also, to whom it will be accounted, who believe in him who raised Jesus, our Lord, from the dead,


book: Rom
contenido:
through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.


book: Rom
contenido:
and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.


book: Rom
contenido:
For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.


book: Rom
contenido:
Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; so death passed to all men, because all sinned.


book: Rom
contenido:
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.


book: Rom
contenido:
But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.


book: Rom
contenido:
The gift is not as through one who sinned; for the judgement came by one to condemnation, but the free gift came of many trespasses to justification.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.


book: Rom
contenido:
So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life.


book: Rom
contenido:
For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.


book: Rom
contenido:
The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly;


book: Rom
contenido:
that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.


book: Rom
contenido:
We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;


book: Rom
contenido:
knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.


book: Rom
contenido:
knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!


book: Rom
contenido:
Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.


book: Rom
contenido:
Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?


book: Rom
contenido:
But thanks be to God, that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.


book: Rom
contenido:
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.


book: Rom
contenido:
What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.


book: Rom
contenido:
But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.


book: Rom
contenido:
Or don’t you know, brothers  (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man for as long as he lives?


book: Rom
contenido:
For the woman that has a husband is bound by law to the husband while he lives, but if the husband dies, she is discharged from the law of the husband.


book: Rom
contenido:
So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she would be called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she is joined to another man.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.


book: Rom
contenido:
For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.


book: Rom
contenido:
But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.


book: Rom
contenido:
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting, unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead.


book: Rom
contenido:
Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I don’t know what I am doing. For I don’t practise what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.


book: Rom
contenido:
but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.


book: Rom
contenido:
I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord! So then with the mind, I myself serve God’s law, but with the flesh, sin’s law.


book: Rom
contenido:
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.


book: Rom
contenido:
For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;


book: Rom
contenido:
that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.


book: Rom
contenido:
For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.


book: Rom
contenido:
because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.


book: Rom
contenido:
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.


book: Rom
contenido:
If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.


book: Rom
contenido:
But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.


book: Rom
contenido:
For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba!  Father!”


book: Rom
contenido:
and if children, then heirs: heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed towards us.


book: Rom
contenido:
For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope


book: Rom
contenido:
that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.


book: Rom
contenido:
Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.


book: Rom
contenido:
In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.


book: Rom
contenido:
He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.


book: Rom
contenido:
We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.


book: Rom
contenido:
For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn amongst many brothers.


book: Rom
contenido:
Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.


book: Rom
contenido:
He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?


book: Rom
contenido:
Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.


book: Rom
contenido:
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?


book: Rom
contenido:
Even as it is written,
“For your sake we are killed all day long.
We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”


book: Rom
contenido:
For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,


book: Rom
contenido:
nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers’ sake, my relatives according to the flesh


book: Rom
contenido:
who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises;


book: Rom
contenido:
of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen.


book: Rom
contenido:
But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel.


book: Rom
contenido:
Neither, because they are Abraham’s offspring, are they all children. But, “your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac.”


book: Rom
contenido:
That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as heirs.


book: Rom
contenido:
For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,


book: Rom
contenido:
For he said to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”


book: Rom
contenido:
For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, “Why did you make me like this?”


book: Rom
contenido:
Or hasn’t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honour, and another for dishonour?


book: Rom
contenido:
What if God, willing to show his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,


book: Rom
contenido:
and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,


book: Rom
contenido:
As he says also in Hosea,
“I will call them ‘my people,’ which were not my people;
and her ‘beloved,’ who was not beloved.”


book: Rom
contenido:
“It will be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’
there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”


book: Rom
contenido:
Isaiah cries concerning Israel,
“If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea,
it is the remnant who will be saved;


book: Rom
contenido:
for He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness,
because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth.”


book: Rom
contenido:
As Isaiah has said before,
“Unless the Lord of Armies  had left us a seed,
we would have become like Sodom,
and would have been made like Gomorrah.”


book: Rom
contenido:
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;


book: Rom
contenido:
Why? Because they didn’t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;


book: Rom
contenido:
even as it is written,
“Behold,  I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offence;
and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.”


book: Rom
contenido:
For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.


book: Rom
contenido:
But the righteousness which is of faith says this, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’  (that is, to bring Christ down);


book: Rom
contenido:
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;”  that is, the word of faith which we preach:


book: Rom
contenido:
that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.


book: Rom
contenido:
For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.


book: Rom
contenido:
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.


book: Rom
contenido:
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?


book: Rom
contenido:
And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace,
who bring glad tidings of good things!”


book: Rom
contenido:
But I say, didn’t they hear? Yes, most certainly,
“Their sound went out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says,
“I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation.
I will make you angry with a nation void of understanding.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Isaiah is very bold and says,
“I was found by those who didn’t seek me.
I was revealed to those who didn’t ask for me.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”


book: Rom
contenido:
I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.


book: Rom
contenido:
God didn’t reject his people, which he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:


book: Rom
contenido:
“Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”


book: Rom
contenido:
But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”


book: Rom
contenido:
And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.


book: Rom
contenido:
What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.


book: Rom
contenido:
According as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.”


book: Rom
contenido:
I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.


book: Rom
contenido:
Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness?


book: Rom
contenido:
For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry;


book: Rom
contenido:
For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?


book: Rom
contenido:
But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in amongst them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,


book: Rom
contenido:
don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.


book: Rom
contenido:
True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don’t be conceited, but fear;


book: Rom
contenido:
See then the goodness and severity of God. Towards those who fell, severity; but towards you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.


book: Rom
contenido:
They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?


book: Rom
contenido:
For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers,  of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,


book: Rom
contenido:
and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written,
“There will come out of Zion the Deliverer,
and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.


book: Rom
contenido:
Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.


book: Rom
contenido:
even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.


book: Rom
contenido:
Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgements, and his ways past tracing out!


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.


book: Rom
contenido:
Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I say through the grace that was given me, to every man who is amongst you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.


book: Rom
contenido:
having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, let’s prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;


book: Rom
contenido:
or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.


book: Rom
contenido:
Be of the same mind one towards another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.


book: Rom
contenido:
Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him.
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore he who resists the authority withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgement.


book: Rom
contenido:
For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Do you desire to have no fear of the authority? Do that which is good, and you will have praise from the authority,


book: Rom
contenido:
for he is a servant of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid, for he doesn’t bear the sword in vain; for he is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to him who does evil.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore you need to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.


book: Rom
contenido:
For this reason you also pay taxes, for they are servants of God’s service, continually doing this very thing.


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore give everyone what you owe: if you owe taxes, pay taxes; if customs, then customs; if respect, then respect; if honour, then honour.


book: Rom
contenido:
Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbour has fulfilled the law.


book: Rom
contenido:
For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,”  “You shall not covet,”  and whatever other commandments there are, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.


book: Rom
contenido:
The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let’s therefore throw off the deeds of darkness, and let’s put on the armour of light.


book: Rom
contenido:
Let’s walk properly, as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.


book: Rom
contenido:
Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.


book: Rom
contenido:
Who are you who judge another’s servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.


book: Rom
contenido:
One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.


book: Rom
contenido:
He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.


book: Rom
contenido:
For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.


book: Rom
contenido:
For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.


book: Rom
contenido:
But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgement seat of Christ.


book: Rom
contenido:
For it is written,
“‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow.
Every tongue will confess to God.’”


book: Rom
contenido:
Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.


book: Rom
contenido:
I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.


book: Rom
contenido:
Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.


book: Rom
contenido:
So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.


book: Rom
contenido:
Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.


book: Rom
contenido:
It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.


book: Rom
contenido:
Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.


book: Rom
contenido:
But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.


book: Rom
contenido:
Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages,


book: Rom
contenido:
but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;


book: Rom
contenido:
For even Christ didn’t please himself. But, as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”


book: Rom
contenido:
For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.


book: Rom
contenido:
Now the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,


book: Rom
contenido:
Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,


book: Rom
contenido:
and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,
“Therefore I will give praise to you amongst the Gentiles
and sing to your name.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Again, Isaiah says,
“There will be the root of Jesse,
he who arises to rule over the Gentiles;
in him the Gentiles will hope.”


book: Rom
contenido:
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.


book: Rom
contenido:
I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers,  that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.


book: Rom
contenido:
But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,


book: Rom
contenido:
that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest of the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.


book: Rom
contenido:
For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,


book: Rom
contenido:
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God’s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ;


book: Rom
contenido:
yes, making it my aim to preach the Good News, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another’s foundation.


book: Rom
contenido:
But, as it is written,
“They will see, to whom no news of him came.
They who haven’t heard will understand.”


book: Rom
contenido:
but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,


book: Rom
contenido:
whenever I travel to Spain, I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.


book: Rom
contenido:
For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor amongst the saints who are at Jerusalem.


book: Rom
contenido:
Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.


book: Rom
contenido:
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.


book: Rom
contenido:
I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the Good News of Christ.


book: Rom
contenido:
Now I beg you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,


book: Rom
contenido:
that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,

Now I beg you, brothers, look out for those who are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which you learnt, and turn away from them.


book: Rom

For those who are such don’t serve our Lord, Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and flattering speech, they deceive the hearts of the innocent.

For your obedience has become known to all. I rejoice therefore over you. But I desire to have you wise in that which is good, but innocent in that which is evil.

Now I beg you, brothers,  through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions amongst you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgement.

For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions amongst you.

Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

(I also baptised the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptised any other.)


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For Christ sent me not to baptise, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.


book: 1Cor

For it is written,
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise.
I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”


book: 1Cor

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?


book: 1Cor

For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.


book: 1Cor

but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;


book: 1Cor

For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;


book: 1Cor

but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world that he might put to shame the things that are strong.


book: 1Cor

God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that don’t exist, that he might bring to nothing the things that exist,


book: 1Cor

Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.


book: 1Cor

My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,


book: 1Cor

We speak wisdom, however, amongst those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this world nor of the rulers of this world who are coming to nothing.


book: 1Cor

But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory,


book: 1Cor

which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory.


book: 1Cor

But as it is written,
“Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear,
which didn’t enter into the heart of man,
these God has prepared for those who love him.”


book: 1Cor

But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.


book: 1Cor

For who amongst men knows the things of a man, except the spirit of the man, which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God, except God’s Spirit.


book: 1Cor

But we received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.


book: 1Cor

We also speak these things, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.


book: 1Cor

Now the natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him, and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise amongst you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by man’s judgement. Yes, I don’t judge my own self.


book: 1Cor

For I know nothing against myself. Yet I am not justified by this, but he who judges me is the Lord.


book: 1Cor

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.


book: 1Cor

Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another.

For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn’t receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?


book: 1Cor

You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you.


book: 1Cor

For, I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men.

We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honour, but we have dishonour.

Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place.

For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, you don’t have many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News.

Because of this I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every assembly.

It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality amongst you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named amongst the Gentiles, that one has his father’s wife.

You are arrogant, and didn’t mourn instead, that he who had done this deed might be removed from amongst you.

For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing.

yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortionists, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.


book: 1Cor

But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortionist. Don’t even eat with such a person.


book: 1Cor

For what do I have to do with also judging those who are outside? Don’t you judge those who are within?


book: 1Cor

Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbour, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?


book: 1Cor

Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?


book: 1Cor

If then you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?


book: 1Cor

I say this to move you to shame. Isn’t there even one wise man amongst you who would be able to decide between his brothers?


book: 1Cor

Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?


book: 1Cor

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.

Some of you were such, but you were washed. But you were sanctified. But you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

“Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.


book: 1Cor

Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!


book: 1Cor

Or don’t you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, “The two”, he says, “will become one flesh.”


book: 1Cor

Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.


book: 1Cor

Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.


book: 1Cor

But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife.


book: 1Cor

Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

(but if she departs, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband not leave his wife.


book: 1Cor

But to the rest I—not the Lord—say, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is content to live with him, let him not leave her.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
The woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he is content to live with her, let her not leave her husband.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Yet if the unbeliever departs, let there be separation. The brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called us in peace.


book: 1Cor

For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

Only, as the Lord has distributed to each man, as God has called each, so let him walk. So I command in all the assemblies.

Was anyone called having been circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? Let him not be circumcised.


book: 1Cor

Were you called being a bondservant? Don’t let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.


book: 1Cor

For he who was called in the Lord being a bondservant is the Lord’s free man. Likewise he who was called being free is Christ’s bondservant.


book: 1Cor

Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgement as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore I think that because of the distress that is on us, that it’s good for a man to remain as he is.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But if you marry, you have not sinned. If a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Yet such will have oppression in the flesh, and I want to spare you.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But I say this, brothers: the time is short, that from now on, both those who have wives may be as though they had none;


book: 1Cor
contenido:
and those who weep, as though they didn’t weep; and those who rejoice, as though they didn’t rejoice; and those who buy, as though they didn’t possess;


book: 1Cor
contenido:
and those who use the world, as not using it to the fullest. For the mode of this world passes away.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But I desire to have you to be free from cares. He who is unmarried is concerned for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;


book: 1Cor
contenido:
There is also a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world—how she may please her husband.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
This I say for your own profit; not that I may ensnare you, but for that which is appropriate, and that you may attend to the Lord without distraction.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But if any man thinks that he is behaving inappropriately towards his virgin, if she is past the flower of her age, and if need so requires, let him do what he desires. He doesn’t sin. Let them marry.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no urgency, but has power over his own will, and has determined in his own heart to keep his own virgin, does well.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
So then both he who gives his own virgin in marriage does well, and he who doesn’t give her in marriage does better.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
A wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she desires, only in the Lord.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But she is happier if she stays as she is, in my judgement, and I think that I also have God’s Spirit.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For though there are things that are called “gods”, whether in the heavens or on earth; as there are many “gods” and many “lords”;


book: 1Cor
contenido:
yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of the idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forever more, that I don’t cause my brother to stumble.


book: 1Cor

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Haven’t I seen Jesus Christ, our Lord? Aren’t you my work in the Lord?


book: 1Cor

If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.


book: 1Cor

Have we no right to take along a wife who is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

What soldier ever serves at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard, and doesn’t eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock, and doesn’t drink from the flock’s milk?


book: 1Cor

For it is written in the law of Moses, “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.”  Is it for the oxen that God cares,


book: 1Cor

or does he say it assuredly for our sake? Yes, it was written for our sake, because he who ploughs ought to plough in hope, and he who threshes in hope should partake of his hope.


book: 1Cor

If others partake of this right over you, don’t we yet more? Nevertheless we didn’t use this right, but we bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the Good News of Christ.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Don’t you know that those who serve around sacred things eat from the things of the temple, and those who wait on the altar have their portion with the altar?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But I have used none of these things, and I don’t write these things that it may be done so in my case; for I would rather die, than that anyone should make my boasting void.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For if I preach the Good News, I have nothing to boast about; for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me if I don’t preach the Good News.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward. But if not of my own will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
What then is my reward? That when I preach the Good News, I may present the Good News of Christ without charge, so as not to abuse my authority in the Good News.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;


book: 1Cor

to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law towards God, but under law towards Christ), that I might win those who are without law.


book: 1Cor

To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some.

Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win.

Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.


book: 1Cor

Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;


book: 1Cor

and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.


book: 1Cor

Don’t be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Let’s not commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.


book: 1Cor

Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come.


book: 1Cor

No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.


book: 1Cor

The cup of blessing which we bless, isn’t it a sharing of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, isn’t it a sharing of the body of Christ?


book: 1Cor

Because there is one loaf of bread, we, who are many, are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf of bread.


book: 1Cor

Consider Israel according to the flesh. Don’t those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?


book: 1Cor

But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God, and I don’t desire that you would have fellowship with demons.


book: 1Cor

You can’t both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can’t both partake of the table of the Lord and of the table of demons.

“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are profitable. “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things build up.

But if one of those who don’t believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.


book: 1Cor

But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” don’t eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For “the earth is the Lord’s, with all its fullness.”


book: 1Cor

Conscience, I say, not your own, but the other’s conscience. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?


book: 1Cor

even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved.


book: 1Cor

Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.

But I would have you know that the head  of every man is Christ, and the head  of the woman is man, and the head  of Christ is God.


book: 1Cor

But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonours her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.


book: 1Cor

Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.


book: 1Cor

But in giving you this command, I don’t praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.


book: 1Cor

For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist amongst you, and I partly believe it.

For there also must be factions amongst you, that those who are approved may be revealed amongst you.

What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.

For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread.


book: 1Cor

When he had given thanks, he broke it and said,“Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying,“This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.


book: 1Cor

For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgement to himself if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body.


book: 1Cor

But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgement. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.

You know that when you were heathen,  you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Jesus is accursed.” No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.

For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages.

For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For in one Spirit we were all baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.

If the foot would say, “Because I’m not the hand, I’m not part of the body,” it is not therefore not part of the body.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If the ear would say, “Because I’m not the eye, I’m not part of the body,” it’s not therefore not part of the body.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
The eye can’t tell the hand, “I have no need for you,” or again the head to the feet, “I have no need for you.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Those parts of the body which we think to be less honourable, on those we bestow more abundant honour; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety;


book: 1Cor
contenido:
whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honour to the inferior part,


book: 1Cor
contenido:
that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. When one member is honoured, all the members rejoice with it.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
God has set some in the assembly: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don’t have love, I have become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but don’t have love, I am nothing.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burnt, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;


book: 1Cor

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things.


book: 1Cor

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For he who speaks in another language speaks not to men, but to God; for no one understands; but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now I desire to have you all speak with other languages, but rather that you would prophesy. For he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the assembly may be built up.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But now, brothers,  if I come to you speaking with other languages, what would I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they didn’t give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
So also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If then I don’t know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Otherwise if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the “Amen” at your giving of thanks, seeing he doesn’t know what you say?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
However in the assembly I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
In the law it is written, “By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. They won’t even hear me that way, says the Lord.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won’t they say that you are crazy?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed. So he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is amongst you indeed.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, or has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If any man speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Let the wives be quiet in the assemblies, for it has not been permitted for them to be talking except in submission, as the law also says,


book: 1Cor
contenido:
if they desire to learn anything. “Let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a wife to be talking in the assembly.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognise the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,


book: 1Cor
contenido:
by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For I am the least of the apostles, who is not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the assembly of God.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was given to me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now if Christ is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some amongst you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Yes, we are also found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Christ, whom he didn’t raise up, if it is so that the dead are not raised.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God, even the Father, when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For, “He put all things in subjection under his feet.”  But when he says, “All things are put in subjection”, it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all things to him.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Or else what will they do who are baptised for the dead? If the dead aren’t raised at all, why then are they baptised for the dead?


book: 1Cor
contenido:
If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then “let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
That which you sow, you don’t sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
So also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.”  The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.


book: 1Cor

However that which is spiritual isn’t first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
As is the one made of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.


book: 1Cor

Now I say this, brothers,  that flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s Kingdom; neither does the perishable inherit imperishable.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
On the first day of every week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections are made when I come.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
Now I beg you, brothers—you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints—


book: 1Cor
contenido:
I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.


book: 1Cor
contenido:
The assemblies of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the assembly that is in their house.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so you are also of the comfort.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we don’t desire to have you uninformed, brothers,  concerning our affliction which happened to us in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
who delivered us out of so great a death, and does deliver; on whom we have set our hope that he will also still deliver us;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
you also helping together on our behalf by your supplication; that, for the gift given to us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on your behalf.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly towards you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we write no other things to you than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will acknowledge to the end,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
as also you acknowledged us in part, that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
When I therefore was thus determined, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the “Yes, yes” and the “No, no?”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached amongst you by us, by me, Silvanus, and Timothy, was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.” Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We don’t control your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
And I wrote this very thing to you, so that, when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy would be shared by all of you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
so that on the contrary you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus, my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face, which was passing away,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face, that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we don’t preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,”  who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal flesh.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke.”  We also believe, and therefore we also speak;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will present us with you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For all things are for your sakes, that the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened, not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we must all be revealed before the judgement seat of Christ that each one may receive the things in the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are revealed to God, and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance, and not in heart.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold,  all things have become new.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
for he says,
“At an acceptable time I listened to you.
In a day of salvation I helped you.”
Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
but in everything commending ourselves, as servants of God, in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what portion does a believer have with an unbeliever?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore
“‘Come out from amongst them,
and be separate,’ says the Lord.
‘Touch no unclean thing.
I will receive you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I say this not to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts to die together and live together.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Great is my boldness of speech towards you. Great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was inside.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you while he told us of your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For though I grieved you with my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you grieve, though just for a while.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I now rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you were grieved to repentance. For you were grieved in a godly way, that you might suffer loss by us in nothing.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For godly sorrow produces repentance to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world produces death.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For behold, this same thing, that you were grieved in a godly way, what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defence, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, and vengeance! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
His affection is more abundantly towards you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Moreover, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
how in much proof of affliction, the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their generosity.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
begging us with much entreaty to receive this grace and the fellowship in the service to the saints.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
This was not as we had expected, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
So we urged Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But as you abound in everything, in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that you also abound in this grace.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I give a judgement in this: for this is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack; that there may be equality.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For he indeed accepted our exhortation, but being himself very earnest, he went out to you of his own accord.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the Good News is known throughout all the assemblies.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Not only so, but he was also appointed by the assemblies to travel with us in this grace, which is served by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our readiness.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We are avoiding this, that any man should blame us concerning this abundance which is administered by us.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Having regard for honourable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
We have sent with them our brother, whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he has in you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker for you. As for our brothers, they are the apostles of the assemblies, the glory of Christ.

Therefore show the proof of your love to them before the assemblies, and of our boasting on your behalf.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to those of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for the past year. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But I have sent the brothers that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
lest by any means, if anyone from Macedonia comes there with me and finds you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) would be disappointed in this confident boasting.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion. for God loves a cheerful giver.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.


book: 2Cor

As it is written,
“He has scattered abroad. He has given to the poor.
His righteousness remains forever.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Now may he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack amongst the saints, but abounds also through much giving of thanks to God,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Good News of Christ and for the generosity of your contribution to them and to all,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Now I Paul, myself, entreat you by the humility and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly amongst you, but being absent am bold towards you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Yes, I beg you that I may not, when present, show courage with the confidence with which I intend to be bold against some, who consider us to be walking according to the flesh.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Do you look at things only as they appear in front of your face? If anyone trusts in himself that he is Christ’s, let him consider this again with himself, that even as he is Christ’s, so we also are Christ’s.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For even if I boast somewhat abundantly concerning our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for casting you down, I will not be ashamed,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For, “His letters”, they say, “are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is despised.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also in deed when we are present.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But they themselves, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but within the boundaries with which God appointed to us, which reach even to you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For we don’t stretch ourselves too much, as though we didn’t reach to you. For we came even as far as to you with the Good News of Christ,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
not boasting beyond proper limits in other men’s labours, but having hope that as your faith grows, we will be abundantly enlarged by you in our sphere of influence,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
so as to preach the Good News even to the parts beyond you, not to boast in what someone else has already done.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I married you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For if he who comes preaches another Jesus, whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit, which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news”, which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from those who desire an occasion, that in which they boast, they may be found even as we.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring  of Abraham? So am I.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labours more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils amongst false brothers;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
in labour and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. For I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I don’t know, or whether out of the body, I don’t know; God knows), such a one caught up into the third heaven.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
how he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For if I would desire to boast, I will not be foolish; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, so that no man may think more of me than that which he sees in me or hears from me.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, a thorn in the flesh was given to me: a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
He has said to me,“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, and in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for in nothing was I inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Truly the signs of an apostle were worked amongst you in all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty works.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For what is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the assemblies, unless it is that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not your possessions, but you. For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.


book: 2Cor

I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I exhorted Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? Didn’t we walk in the same spirit? Didn’t we walk in the same steps?


book: 2Cor
contenido:
Again, do you think that we are excusing ourselves to you? In the sight of God we speak in Christ. But all things, beloved, are for your edifying.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire, that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, or riots,


book: 2Cor
contenido:
that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness, sexual immorality, and lustfulness which they committed.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
This is the third time I am coming to you. “At the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.”


book: 2Cor
contenido:
I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, I write to those who have sinned before now, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;


book: 2Cor
contenido:
seeing that you seek a proof of Christ who speaks in me; who towards you is not weak, but is powerful in you.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him through the power of God towards you.


book: 2Cor

Examine your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don’t you know about your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.


book: 2Cor

Now I pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is honourable, though we are as reprobate.


book: 2Cor
contenido:
For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not deal sharply when present, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for tearing down.


book: 2Cor

Finally, brothers, rejoice! Be perfected. Be comforted. Be of the same mind. Live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.


book: 2Cor

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s love, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.


book: Gal
contenido:
Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—


book: Gal
contenido:
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—


book: Gal
contenido:
I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,


book: Gal
contenido:
but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.


book: Gal
contenido:
But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.


book: Gal
contenido:
As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.


book: Gal
contenido:
For am I now seeking the favour of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.


book: Gal
contenido:
But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.


book: Gal
contenido:
For I didn’t receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.


book: Gal
contenido:
For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God and ravaged it.


book: Gal
contenido:
I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond many of my own age amongst my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.


book: Gal
contenido:
But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace


book: Gal
contenido:
to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him amongst the Gentiles, I didn’t immediately confer with flesh and blood,


book: Gal
contenido:
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.


book: Gal
contenido:
but they only heard: “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”


book: Gal
contenido:
Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.


book: Gal
contenido:
I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach amongst the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.


book: Gal
contenido:
This was because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who stole in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage,


book: Gal
contenido:
to whom we gave no place in the way of subjection, not for an hour, that the truth of the Good News might continue with you.


book: Gal
contenido:
But from those who were reputed to be important—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God doesn’t show partiality to man—they, I say, who were respected imparted nothing to me,


book: Gal
contenido:
but to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcised, even as Peter with the Good News for the circumcised—


book: Gal
contenido:
for he who worked through Peter in the apostleship with the circumcised also worked through me with the Gentiles—


book: Gal
contenido:
and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, those who were reputed to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision.


book: Gal
contenido:
For before some people came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.


book: Gal
contenido:
And the rest of the Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.


book: Gal
contenido:
But when I saw that they didn’t walk uprightly according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Peter before them all, “If you, being a Jew, live as the Gentiles do, and not as the Jews do, why do you compel the Gentiles to live as the Jews do?


book: Gal
contenido:
yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.


book: Gal
contenido:
But if while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!


book: Gal
contenido:
I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.


book: Gal
contenido:
I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”


book: Gal
contenido:
Foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you not to obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly portrayed amongst you as crucified?


book: Gal
contenido:
I just want to learn this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?


book: Gal
contenido:
He therefore who supplies the Spirit to you and does miracles amongst you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?


book: Gal
contenido:
The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Good News beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you all the nations will be blessed.”


book: Gal
contenido:
For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who doesn’t continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.”


book: Gal
contenido:
Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, “The righteous will live by faith.”


book: Gal
contenido:
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,”


book: Gal
contenido:
that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.


book: Gal
contenido:
Brothers, speaking of human terms, though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void or adds to it.


book: Gal
contenido:
Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his offspring.  He doesn’t say, “To descendants ”, as of many, but as of one, “To your offspring”,  which is Christ.


book: Gal
contenido:
Now I say this: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.


book: Gal
contenido:
For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by promise.


book: Gal
contenido:
Then why is there the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise has been made. It was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.


book: Gal
contenido:
Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.


book: Gal
contenido:
But the Scripture imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.


book: Gal
contenido:
But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.


book: Gal
contenido:
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.


book: Gal
contenido:
But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a bondservant, though he is lord of all,


book: Gal
contenido:
So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.


book: Gal
contenido:
And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba,  Father!”


book: Gal
contenido:
But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be in bondage all over again?


book: Gal
contenido:
That which was a temptation to you in my flesh, you didn’t despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.


book: Gal
contenido:
What was the blessing you enjoyed? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.


book: Gal
contenido:
However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.


book: Gal
contenido:
These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Hagar.


book: Gal
contenido:
For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.


book: Gal
contenido:
For it is written,
“Rejoice, you barren who don’t bear.
Break out and shout, you who don’t travail.
For the desolate have more children than her who has a husband.”


book: Gal
contenido:
But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.


book: Gal
contenido:
However what does the Scripture say? “Throw out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant will not inherit with the son of the free woman.”


book: Gal
contenido:
Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.


book: Gal
contenido:
Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is a debtor to do the whole law.


book: Gal
contenido:
You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.


book: Gal
contenido:
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.


book: Gal
contenido:
I have confidence towards you in the Lord that you will think no other way. But he who troubles you will bear his judgement, whoever he is.


book: Gal
contenido:
But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.


book: Gal
contenido:
For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don’t use your freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.


book: Gal
contenido:
For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.


book: Gal
contenido:
Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness,


book: Gal
contenido:
envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practise such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.


book: Gal
contenido:
Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.


book: Gal
contenido:
But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.


book: Gal
contenido:
For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.


book: Gal
contenido:
So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good towards all men, and especially towards those who are of the household of the faith.


book: Gal
contenido:
As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised; just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.


book: Gal
contenido:
For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.


book: Gal
contenido:
But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.


book: Gal
contenido:
From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.


book: Eph
contenido:
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:


book: Eph
contenido:
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,


book: Eph
contenido:
even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,


book: Eph
contenido:
having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,


book: Eph
contenido:
in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,


book: Eph
contenido:
to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in him.


book: Eph
contenido:
We were also assigned an inheritance in him, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will,


book: Eph
contenido:
In him you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,


book: Eph
contenido:
who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.


book: Eph
contenido:
For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is amongst you, and the love which you have towards all the saints,


book: Eph
contenido:
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him,


book: Eph
contenido:
having the eyes of your hearts  enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,


book: Eph
contenido:
and what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might


book: Eph
contenido:
which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,


book: Eph
contenido:
far above all rule, authority, power, dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.


book: Eph
contenido:
He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,


book: Eph
contenido:
in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience.


book: Eph
contenido:
We also all once lived amongst them in the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.


book: Eph
contenido:
even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—


book: Eph
contenido:
that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness towards us in Christ Jesus;


book: Eph
contenido:
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.


book: Eph
contenido:
Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “uncircumcision” by that which is called “circumcision” (in the flesh, made by hands),


book: Eph
contenido:
that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.


book: Eph
contenido:
having abolished in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,


book: Eph
contenido:
and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility through it.


book: Eph
contenido:
So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God,


book: Eph
contenido:
being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;


book: Eph
contenido:
if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me towards you,


book: Eph
contenido:
which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit,


book: Eph
contenido:
that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,


book: Eph
contenido:
of which I was made a servant according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.


book: Eph
contenido:
To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,


book: Eph
contenido:
and to make all men see what is the administration  of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ,


book: Eph
contenido:
to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,


book: Eph
contenido:
that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner person,


book: Eph
contenido:
that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,


book: Eph
contenido:
may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth,


book: Eph
contenido:
and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.


book: Eph
contenido:
Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,


book: Eph
contenido:
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,


book: Eph
contenido:
Now this, “He ascended”, what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?


book: Eph
contenido:
He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.


book: Eph
contenido:
He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds  and teachers;


book: Eph
contenido:
until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,


book: Eph
contenido:
that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;


book: Eph
contenido:
from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.


book: Eph
contenido:
This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,


book: Eph
contenido:
being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts.


book: Eph
contenido:
that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit,


book: Eph
contenido:
and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.


book: Eph
contenido:
Therefore putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbour. For we are members of one another.


book: Eph
contenido:
Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labour, producing with his hands something that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.


book: Eph
contenido:
Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.


book: Eph
contenido:
And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.


book: Eph
contenido:
Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.


book: Eph
contenido:
But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned amongst you, as becomes saints;


book: Eph
contenido:
nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.


book: Eph
contenido:
Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.


book: Eph
contenido:
Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.


book: Eph
contenido:
But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.


book: Eph
contenido:
speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;


book: Eph
contenido:
giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father;


book: Eph
contenido:
For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the saviour of the body.


book: Eph
contenido:
But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.


book: Eph
contenido:
that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without defect.


book: Eph
contenido:
Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.


book: Eph
contenido:
For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly;


book: Eph
contenido:
“For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife. The two will become one flesh.”


book: Eph
contenido:
Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.


book: Eph
contenido:
You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.


book: Eph
contenido:
Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ,


book: Eph
contenido:
not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,


book: Eph
contenido:
knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.


book: Eph
contenido:
You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.


book: Eph
contenido:
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.


book: Eph
contenido:
Therefore put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.


book: Eph
contenido:
Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,


book: Eph
contenido:
above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.


book: Eph
contenido:
with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints:


book: Eph
contenido:
on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,


book: Eph
contenido:
But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things.


book: Eph
contenido:
I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.


book: Phil
contenido:
Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ;
To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers  and servants:


book: Phil
contenido:
being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.


book: Phil
contenido:
It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.


book: Phil
contenido:
so that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offence to the day of Christ,


book: Phil
contenido:
being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.


book: Phil
contenido:
Now I desire to have you know, brothers,  that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News,


book: Phil
contenido:
so that it became evident to the whole palace  guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Christ,


book: Phil
contenido:
and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.


book: Phil
contenido:
The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;


book: Phil
contenido:
What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.


book: Phil
contenido:
For I know that this will turn out to my salvation, through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,


book: Phil
contenido:
according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.


book: Phil
contenido:
But if I live on in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; yet I don’t know what I will choose.


book: Phil
contenido:
But I am hard pressed between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.


book: Phil
contenido:
Having this confidence, I know that I will remain, yes, and remain with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,


book: Phil
contenido:
Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;


book: Phil
contenido:
and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.


book: Phil
contenido:
Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,


book: Phil
contenido:
If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,


book: Phil
contenido:
doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;


book: Phil
contenido:
And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.


book: Phil
contenido:
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,


book: Phil
contenido:
So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.


book: Phil
contenido:
that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, amongst whom you are seen as lights in the world,


book: Phil
contenido:
holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ, that I didn’t run in vain nor labour in vain.


book: Phil
contenido:
Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.


book: Phil
contenido:
But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.


book: Phil
contenido:
But you know the proof of him, that as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.


book: Phil
contenido:
But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need,


book: Phil
contenido:
For indeed he was sick, nearly to death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.


book: Phil
contenido:
I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.


book: Phil
contenido:
because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service towards me.


book: Phil
contenido:
Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not tiresome, but for you it is safe.


book: Phil
contenido:
For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;


book: Phil
contenido:
though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:


book: Phil
contenido:
circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;


book: Phil
contenido:
concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.


book: Phil
contenido:
Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ


book: Phil
contenido:
and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith,


book: Phil
contenido:
that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,


book: Phil
contenido:
Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.


book: Phil
contenido:
Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do: forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,


book: Phil
contenido:
Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.


book: Phil
contenido:
Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let’s walk by the same rule. Let’s be of the same mind.


book: Phil
contenido:
Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.


book: Phil
contenido:
For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, as the enemies of the cross of Christ,


book: Phil
contenido:
whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.


book: Phil
contenido:
who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.


book: Phil
contenido:
Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.


book: Phil
contenido:
Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they laboured with me in the Good News with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.


book: Phil
contenido:
In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.


book: Phil
contenido:
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.


book: Phil
contenido:
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honourable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report: if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think about these things.


book: Phil
contenido:
The things which you learnt, received, heard, and saw in me: do these things, and the God of peace will be with you.


book: Phil
contenido:
But I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at length you have revived your thought for me; in which you did indeed take thought, but you lacked opportunity.


book: Phil
contenido:
I know how to be humbled, and I also know how to abound. In everything and in all things I have learnt the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need.


book: Phil
contenido:
You yourselves also know, you Philippians, that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no assembly shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.


book: Phil
contenido:
But I have all things and abound. I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.


book: Col
contenido:
to the saints and faithful brothers  in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.


book: Col
contenido:
because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News


book: Col
contenido:
which has come to you, even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth,


book: Col
contenido:
even as you learnt of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on your  behalf,


book: Col
contenido:
For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, don’t cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,


book: Col
contenido:
that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,


book: Col
contenido:
strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy,


book: Col
contenido:
giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light,


book: Col
contenido:
who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,


book: Col
contenido:
For by him all things were created in the heavens and on the earth, visible things and invisible things, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things have been created through him and for him.


book: Col
contenido:
He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence.


book: Col
contenido:
and through him to reconcile all things to himself by him, whether things on the earth or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.


book: Col
contenido:
yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without defect and blameless before him,


book: Col
contenido:
if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a servant.


book: Col
contenido:
Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,


book: Col
contenido:
of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me towards you to fulfil the word of God,


book: Col
contenido:
the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints,


book: Col
contenido:
to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery amongst the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.


book: Col
contenido:
We proclaim him, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus;


book: Col
contenido:
For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;


book: Col
contenido:
that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,


book: Col
contenido:
For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in the spirit, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.


book: Col
contenido:
rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.


book: Col
contenido:
Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.


book: Col
contenido:
In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ,


book: Col
contenido:
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.


book: Col
contenido:
You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,


book: Col
contenido:
wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.


book: Col
contenido:
Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.


book: Col
contenido:
Let no one therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,


book: Col
contenido:
Let no one rob you of your prize by self-abasement and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,


book: Col
contenido:
and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.


book: Col
contenido:
If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,


book: Col
contenido:
These things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, humility, and severity to the body; but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.


book: Col
contenido:
If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.


book: Col
contenido:
Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.


book: Col
contenido:
but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.


book: Col
contenido:
where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, or free person; but Christ is all, and in all.


book: Col
contenido:
Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;


book: Col
contenido:
bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.


book: Col
contenido:
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.


book: Col
contenido:
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.


book: Col
contenido:
Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.


book: Col
contenido:
Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.


book: Col
contenido:
knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.


book: Col
contenido:
But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.


book: Col
contenido:
Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.


book: Col
contenido:
praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds,


book: Col
contenido:
Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.


book: Col
contenido:
All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow bondservant in the Lord.


book: Col
contenido:
I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,


book: Col
contenido:
together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you everything that is going on here.


book: Col
contenido:
Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commandments, “if he comes to you, receive him”),


book: Col
contenido:
and Jesus who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for God’s Kingdom who are of the circumcision, men who have been a comfort to me.


book: Col
contenido:
Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, salutes you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.


book: Col
contenido:
For I testify about him that he has great zeal for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.


book: Col
contenido:
When this letter has been read amongst you, cause it to be read also in the assembly of the Laodiceans, and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.


book: Col
contenido:
Tell Archippus, “Take heed to the ministry which you have received in the Lord, that you fulfil it.”


book: 1Thess
contenido:
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labour of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we showed ourselves to be amongst you for your sake.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
You became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For from you the word of the Lord has been declared, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith towards God has gone out, so that we need not to say anything.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For they themselves report concerning us what kind of a reception we had from you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead: Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak: not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),


book: 1Thess
contenido:
nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For you remember, brothers, our labour and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
You are witnesses with God how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves towards you who believe.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also works in you who believe.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For you, brothers, became imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews


book: 1Thess
contenido:
who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and don’t please God, and are contrary to all men,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Isn’t it even you, before our Lord Jesus  at his coming?


book: 1Thess
contenido:
Therefore when we couldn’t stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labour would have been in vain.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But when Timothy came just now to us from you, and brought us glad news of your faith and love, and that you have good memories of us always, longing to see us, even as we also long to see you,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
for this cause, brothers, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For what thanksgiving can we render again to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sakes before our God,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?


book: 1Thess
contenido:
May the Lord make you to increase and abound in love towards one another, and towards all men, even as we also do towards you,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
Therefore he who rejects this doesn’t reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
for indeed you do it towards all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;


book: 1Thess
contenido:
and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you;


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman. Then they will in no way escape.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
You are all children of light and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night, nor to darkness,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But since we belong to the day, let’s be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
But we beg you, brothers, to know those who labour amongst you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you,


book: 1Thess
contenido:
We exhort you, brothers: Admonish the disorderly; encourage the faint-hearted; support the weak; be patient towards all.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.


book: 1Thess
contenido:
May the God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ:


book: 2Thess
contenido:
We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers,  even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your perseverance and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgement of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of God’s Kingdom, for which you also suffer.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
when he comes in that day to be glorified in his saints and to be admired amongst all those who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfil every desire of goodness and work of faith with power,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
that the name of our Lord Jesus  may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him, we ask you


book: 2Thess
contenido:
not to be quickly shaken in your mind, and not be troubled, either by spirit, or by word, or by letter as if from us, saying that the day of Christ has already come.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the rebellion  comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
he who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and destroy by the manifestation of his coming;


book: 2Thess
contenido:
even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn’t receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
So then, brothers, stand firm and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word or by letter.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may spread rapidly and be glorified, even as also with you,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother who walks in rebellion, and not after the tradition which they received from us.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
neither did we eat bread from anyone’s hand without paying for it, but in labour and travail worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you,


book: 2Thess
contenido:
not because we don’t have the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, that you should imitate us.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: “If anyone is not willing to work, don’t let him eat.”


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they work with quietness and eat their own bread.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
If any man doesn’t obey our word in this letter, note that man, that you have no company with him, to the end that he may be ashamed.


book: 2Thess
contenido:
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Saviour and the Lord Jesus Christ  our hope;


book: 1Tim
contenido:
to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes, rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith—


book: 1Tim
contenido:
desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;


book: 1Tim
contenido:
although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honour and glory forever and ever. Amen.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men:


book: 1Tim
contenido:
for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not just  with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
The overseer therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, modest, hospitable, good at teaching;


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Moreover he must have good testimony from those who are outside, to avoid falling into reproach and the snare of the devil.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Servants,  in the same way, must be reverent, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for money,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Their wives in the same way must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, and faithful in all things.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For those who have served well  gain for themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
but if I wait long, that you may know how men ought to behave themselves in God’s house, which is the assembly of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great:
God  was revealed in the flesh,
justified in the spirit,
seen by angels,
preached amongst the nations,
believed on in the world,
and received up in glory.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with thanksgiving.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For to this end we both labour and suffer reproach, because we have set our trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of those who believe.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Don’t neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the elders.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Be diligent in these things. Give yourself wholly to them, that your progress may be revealed to all.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Pay attention to yourself and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family and to repay their parents, for this is  acceptable in the sight of God.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Now she who is a widow indeed and desolate, has her hope set on God, and continues in petitions and prayers night and day.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, and if she has diligently followed every good work.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
If any man or woman who believes has widows, let them relieve them, and don’t let the assembly be burdened, that it might relieve those who are widows indeed.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially those who labour in the word and in teaching.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.”  And,“The labourer is worthy of his wages.”


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I command you in the sight of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Be no longer a drinker of water only, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise can’t be hidden.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and doesn’t consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, insulting, evil suspicions,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. Withdraw yourself from such.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,


book: 1Tim
contenido:
which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and eternal power. Amen.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy;


book: 1Tim
contenido:
that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to share;


book: 1Tim
contenido:
laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.


book: 1Tim
contenido:
Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day


book: 2Tim
contenido:
having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, in you also.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Saviour, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
For this cause I also suffer these things.
Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
(the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
The things which you have heard from me amongst many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they don’t argue about words, to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
However God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are his,”  and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord  depart from unrighteousness.”


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honour, and some for dishonour.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honour, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
persecutions, and sufferings: those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
But you remain in the things which you have learnt and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learnt them.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is in Christ Jesus.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Every Scripture is God-breathed and  profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
I command you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom:


book: 2Tim
contenido:
preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort with all patience and teaching.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts,


book: 2Tim
contenido:
But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfil your ministry.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia; and Titus to Dalmatia.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come, and the books, especially the parchments.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear. So I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.


book: 2Tim
contenido:
Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.


book: Titus
contenido:
Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,


book: Titus
contenido:
but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Saviour;


book: Titus
contenido:
to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.


book: Titus
contenido:
I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you,


book: Titus
contenido:
if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behaviour.


book: Titus
contenido:
For the overseer must be blameless, as God’s steward, not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;


book: Titus
contenido:
holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.


book: Titus
contenido:
For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,


book: Titus
contenido:
whose mouths must be stopped: men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain’s sake.


book: Titus
contenido:
One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons.”


book: Titus
contenido:
To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.


book: Titus
contenido:
They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.


book: Titus
contenido:
that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in perseverance:


book: Titus
contenido:
and that older women likewise be reverent in behaviour, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good,


book: Titus
contenido:
to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God’s word may not be blasphemed.


book: Titus
contenido:
In all things be showing yourself an example of good works. In your teaching, be showing integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,


book: Titus
contenido:
and soundness of speech that can’t be condemned, that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.


book: Titus
contenido:
Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters and to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting,


book: Titus
contenido:
not stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Saviour, in all things.


book: Titus
contenido:
instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;


book: Titus
contenido:
who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.


book: Titus
contenido:
Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,


book: Titus
contenido:
For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.


book: Titus
contenido:
not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,


book: Titus
contenido:
This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;


book: Titus
contenido:
but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.


book: Titus
contenido:
When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.


book: Titus
contenido:
Send Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.


book: Titus
contenido:
Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.


book: Phlm
contenido:
hearing of your love and of the faith which you have towards the Lord Jesus, and towards all the saints,


book: Phlm

that the fellowship of your faith may become effective in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.


book: Phlm
contenido:
For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.


book: Phlm
contenido:
yet for love’s sake I rather beg, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.


book: Phlm
contenido:
whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.


book: Phlm
contenido:
But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.


book: Phlm
contenido:
no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.


book: Phlm
contenido:
I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).


book: Phlm
contenido:
Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.


book: Heb
contenido:
God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,


book: Heb
contenido:
has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.


book: Heb
contenido:
His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,


book: Heb
contenido:
having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.


book: Heb
contenido:
For to which of the angels did he say at any time,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your father?”
and again,
“I will be to him a Father,
and he will be to me a Son?”


book: Heb
contenido:
When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”


book: Heb
contenido:
But of the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.
The sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of your Kingdom.


book: Heb
contenido:
You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity;
therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.”


book: Heb
contenido:
And,
“You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth.
The heavens are the works of your hands.


book: Heb
contenido:
You will roll them up like a mantle,
and they will be changed;
but you are the same.
Your years won’t fail.”


book: Heb
contenido:
But which of the angels has he told at any time,
“Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?”


book: Heb
contenido:
Aren’t they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.


book: Heb
contenido:
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,


book: Heb
contenido:
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,


book: Heb
contenido:
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?


book: Heb
contenido:
But one has somewhere testified, saying,
“What is man, that you think of him?
Or the son of man, that you care for him?


book: Heb
contenido:
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don’t see all things subjected to him, yet.


book: Heb
contenido:
But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honour, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.


book: Heb
contenido:
For it became him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.


book: Heb
contenido:
For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,


book: Heb
contenido:
saying,
“I will declare your name to my brothers.
Amongst the congregation I will sing your praise.”


book: Heb
contenido:
Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.”


book: Heb
contenido:
Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,


book: Heb
contenido:
For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honour than the house.


book: Heb
contenido:
Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,


book: Heb
contenido:
but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore I was displeased with that generation,
and said, ‘They always err in their heart,
but they didn’t know my ways.’


book: Heb
contenido:
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;


book: Heb
contenido:
but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.


book: Heb
contenido:
while it is said,
“Today if you will hear his voice,
don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”


book: Heb
contenido:
With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?


book: Heb
contenido:
Let’s fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.


book: Heb
contenido:
For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard didn’t profit them, because it wasn’t mixed with faith by those who heard.


book: Heb
contenido:
For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;”  although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.


book: Heb
contenido:
For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, “God rested on the seventh day from all his works;”


book: Heb
contenido:
Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter into it, and they to whom the good news was preached before failed to enter in because of disobedience,


book: Heb
contenido:
he again defines a certain day, today, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said),
“Today if you will hear his voice,
don’t harden your hearts.”


book: Heb
contenido:
Let’s therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.


book: Heb
contenido:
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.


book: Heb
contenido:
There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.


book: Heb
contenido:
Having then a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let’s hold tightly to our confession.


book: Heb
contenido:
For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.


book: Heb
contenido:
Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.


book: Heb
contenido:
For every high priest, being taken from amongst men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.


book: Heb
contenido:
The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.


book: Heb
contenido:
So also Christ didn’t glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your father.”


book: Heb
contenido:
He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,


book: Heb
contenido:
For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.


book: Heb
contenido:
But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore leaving the teaching of the first principles of Christ, let’s press on to perfection—not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith towards God,


book: Heb
contenido:
of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgement.


book: Heb
contenido:
For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,


book: Heb
contenido:
and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.


book: Heb
contenido:
For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it and produces a crop suitable for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receives blessing from God;


book: Heb
contenido:
but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near being cursed, whose end is to be burnt.


book: Heb
contenido:
But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, even though we speak like this.


book: Heb
contenido:
For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labour of love which you showed towards his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them.


book: Heb
contenido:
that you won’t be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and perseverance inherited the promises.


book: Heb
contenido:
For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,


book: Heb
contenido:
For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.


book: Heb
contenido:
In this way God, being determined to show more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath,


book: Heb
contenido:
that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.


book: Heb
contenido:
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil;


book: Heb
contenido:
where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.


book: Heb
contenido:
For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,


book: Heb
contenido:
to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, “king of righteousness”, and then also “king of Salem”, which means “king of peace”,


book: Heb
contenido:
without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God), remains a priest continually.


book: Heb
contenido:
Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the best plunder.


book: Heb
contenido:
They indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest’s office have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come out of the body of Abraham,


book: Heb
contenido:
but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises.


book: Heb
contenido:
Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives tithes of whom it is testified that he lives.


book: Heb
contenido:
Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?


book: Heb
contenido:
For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has officiated at the altar.


book: Heb
contenido:
For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.


book: Heb
contenido:
This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,


book: Heb
contenido:
who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life;


book: Heb
contenido:
(for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.


book: Heb
contenido:
(for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him,
“The Lord swore and will not change his mind,
‘You are a priest forever,
according to the order of Melchizedek.’”


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.


book: Heb
contenido:
For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;


book: Heb
contenido:
who doesn’t need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.


book: Heb
contenido:
For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the law appoints a Son forever who has been perfected.


book: Heb
contenido:
Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this. We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,


book: Heb
contenido:
For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.


book: Heb
contenido:
For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law,


book: Heb
contenido:
who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, “See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.”


book: Heb
contenido:
But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.


book: Heb
contenido:
For finding fault with them, he said,
“Behold,  the days come”, says the Lord,
“that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;


book: Heb
contenido:
not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers,
in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt;
for they didn’t continue in my covenant,
and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.


book: Heb
contenido:
“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel.
After those days,” says the Lord;
“I will put my laws into their mind,
I will also write them on their heart.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.


book: Heb
contenido:
They will not teach every man his fellow citizen,
and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
for all will know me,
from their least to their greatest.


book: Heb
contenido:
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness.
I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”


book: Heb
contenido:
In that he says, “A new covenant”, he has made the first old. But that which is becoming old and grows aged is near to vanishing away.


book: Heb
contenido:
For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lamp stand, the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place.


book: Heb
contenido:
having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;


book: Heb
contenido:
and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we can’t speak now in detail.


book: Heb
contenido:
Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services,


book: Heb
contenido:
but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.


book: Heb
contenido:
The Holy Spirit is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place wasn’t yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing.


book: Heb
contenido:
This is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshipper perfect,


book: Heb
contenido:
being only (with meats and drinks and various washings) fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.


book: Heb
contenido:
But Christ having come as a high priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,


book: Heb
contenido:
nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption.


book: Heb
contenido:
For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh,


book: Heb
contenido:
how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?


book: Heb
contenido:
For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.


book: Heb
contenido:
For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives.


book: Heb
contenido:
For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,


book: Heb
contenido:
Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in the same way with the blood.


book: Heb
contenido:
According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.


book: Heb
contenido:
It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.


book: Heb
contenido:
For Christ hasn’t entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;


book: Heb
contenido:
nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,


book: Heb
contenido:
or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.


book: Heb
contenido:
so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.


book: Heb
contenido:
For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.


book: Heb
contenido:
Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore when he comes into the world, he says,
“You didn’t desire sacrifice and offering,
but you prepared a body for me.


book: Heb
contenido:
Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me)
to do your will, O God.’”


book: Heb
contenido:
Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn’t desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),


book: Heb
contenido:
then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,


book: Heb
contenido:
by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.


book: Heb
contenido:
Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering the same sacrifices which can never take away sins,


book: Heb
contenido:
“This is the covenant that I will make with them:
‘After those days,’ says the Lord,
‘I will put my laws on their heart,
I will also write them on their mind;’”
then he says,


book: Heb
contenido:
by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,


book: Heb
contenido:
let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,


book: Heb
contenido:
not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.


book: Heb
contenido:
For if we sin wilfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,


book: Heb
contenido:
but a certain fearful expectation of judgement, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.


book: Heb
contenido:
How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?


book: Heb
contenido:
For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me;” says the Lord, “I will repay.”  Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”


book: Heb
contenido:
But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings;


book: Heb
contenido:
partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions; and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.


book: Heb
contenido:
For you both had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.


book: Heb
contenido:
But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn’t see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.


book: Heb
contenido:
Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear,  prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.


book: Heb
contenido:
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen  them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.


book: Heb
contenido:
If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.


book: Heb
contenido:
But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son,


book: Heb
contenido:
concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped, leaning on the top of his staff.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.


book: Heb
contenido:
choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,


book: Heb
contenido:
considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.


book: Heb
contenido:
By faith, Rahab the prostitute didn’t perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.


book: Heb
contenido:
What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets,


book: Heb
contenido:
who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,


book: Heb
contenido:
quenched the power of fire,  escaped the edge of the sword,  from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign armies to flee.


book: Heb
contenido:
Women received their dead by resurrection.  Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.


book: Heb
contenido:
They were stoned.  They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword.  They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated—


book: Heb
contenido:
of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.


book: Heb
contenido:
God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,


book: Heb
contenido:
looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.


book: Heb
contenido:
For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don’t grow weary, fainting in your souls.


book: Heb
contenido:
You have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with children,
“My son, don’t take lightly the chastening of the Lord,
nor faint when you are reproved by him;


book: Heb
contenido:
It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn’t discipline?


book: Heb
contenido:
But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then you are illegitimate, and not children.


book: Heb
contenido:
Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?


book: Heb
contenido:
For they indeed, for a few days, punished us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.


book: Heb
contenido:
All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.


book: Heb
contenido:
and make straight paths for your feet,  so what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.


book: Heb
contenido:
looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it,


book: Heb
contenido:
lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.


book: Heb
contenido:
For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears.


book: Heb
contenido:
For you have not come to a mountain that might be touched, and that burnt with fire, and to blackness, darkness, storm,


book: Heb
contenido:
the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them,

But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,


book: Heb

to the festal gathering and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,


book: Heb

to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant,  and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.


book: Heb

See that you don’t refuse him who speaks. For if they didn’t escape when they refused him who warned on the earth, how much more will we not escape who turn away from him who warns from heaven,


book: Heb
contenido:
whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens.”


book: Heb
contenido:
This phrase, “Yet once more” signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that can’t be shaken, let’s have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,


book: Heb

Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it.


book: Heb

Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body.


book: Heb
contenido:
Let marriage be held in honour amongst all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.


book: Heb
contenido:
Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.”


book: Heb
contenido:
Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God, and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith.


book: Heb
contenido:
Don’t be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it is good that the heart be established by grace, not by food, through which those who were so occupied were not benefitted.


book: Heb
contenido:
For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burnt outside of the camp.


book: Heb
contenido:
Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.


book: Heb
contenido:
Through him, then, let’s offer up a sacrifice of praise to God  continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name.


book: Heb
contenido:
Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy, and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you.


book: Heb

Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honourably in all things.

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.


book: Jas
contenido:
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.


book: Jas
contenido:
But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.


book: Jas
contenido:
For the sun arises with the scorching wind and withers the grass, and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.


book: Jas
contenido:
Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him.


book: Jas
contenido:
Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.


book: Jas
contenido:
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.


book: Jas

Of his own will he gave birth to us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.


book: Jas

Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.


book: Jas
contenido:
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;


book: Jas
contenido:
But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues, not being a hearer who forgets, but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.


book: Jas
contenido:
If anyone amongst you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn’t bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is worthless.


book: Jas
contenido:
Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.


book: Jas

For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue,  and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in,


book: Jas
contenido:
and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing and say, “Sit here in a good place;” and you tell the poor man, “Stand there,” or “Sit by my footstool”


book: Jas
contenido:
Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?


book: Jas
contenido:
But you have dishonoured the poor man. Don’t the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?


book: Jas
contenido:
However, if you fulfil the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself,”  you do well.


book: Jas
contenido:
For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,”  also said, “Do not commit murder.”  Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.


book: Jas

and one of you tells them, “Go in peace. Be warmed and filled;” yet you didn’t give them the things the body needs, what good is it?


book: Jas

Yes, a man will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works.


book: Jas

So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness,”  and he was called the friend of God.


book: Jas

In the same way, wasn’t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers and sent them out another way?


book: Jas

For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.


book: Jas

Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.


book: Jas

Behold,  the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.


book: Jas
contenido:
So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!


book: Jas
contenido:
And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity amongst our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.

For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;

Who is wise and understanding amongst you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.


book: Jas

But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.


book: Jas

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.


book: Jas
contenido:
Where do wars and fightings amongst you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members?


book: Jas
contenido:
You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask.


book: Jas
contenido:
You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.


book: Jas
contenido:
You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hostility towards God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.


book: Jas
contenido:
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.


book: Jas
contenido:
Don’t speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.


book: Jas
contenido:
Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow let’s go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit.”


book: Jas

Whereas you don’t know what your life will be like tomorrow. For what is your life? For you are a vapour that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away.


book: Jas

Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.


book: Jas

Behold, the wages of the labourers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out, and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.


book: Jas

You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.


book: Jas

Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.


book: Jas
contenido:
Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.


book: Jas
contenido:
Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.


book: Jas
contenido:
Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.


book: Jas
contenido:
But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear— not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.


book: Jas
contenido:
Is any amongst you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord,


book: Jas
contenido:
and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.


book: Jas
contenido:
Confess your offences to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.


book: Jas
contenido:
Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.


book: Jas

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.


book: 1Pet

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honour at the revelation of Jesus Christ—


book: 1Pet
contenido:
whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ, which was in them, pointed to, when he predicted the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that would follow them.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
To them it was revealed, that they served not to themselves, but to you, in these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Therefore prepare your minds for action.  Be sober, and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ—


book: 1Pet
contenido:
as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man’s work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For,
“All flesh is like grass,
and all of man’s glory like the flower in the grass.
The grass withers, and its flower falls;


book: 1Pet
contenido:
You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Because it is contained in Scripture,
“Behold,  I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious:
He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For you who believe therefore is the honour, but for those who are disobedient,
“The stone which the builders rejected
has become the chief cornerstone,”


book: 1Pet
contenido:
and,
“a stumbling stone and a rock of offence.”
For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;


book: 1Pet
contenido:
having good behaviour amongst the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they see, glorify God in the day of visitation.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme;


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect: not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience towards God.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you  an example, that you should follow his steps,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer  of your souls.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don’t obey the Word, they may be won by the behaviour of their wives without a word,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing;


book: 1Pet
contenido:
but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For this is how in the past, the holy women who hoped in God also adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
So Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
You husbands, in the same way, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honour to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as also being joint heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
not rendering evil for evil, or insult for insult; but instead blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For,
“He who would love life
and see good days,
let him keep his tongue from evil
and his lips from speaking deceit.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears open to their prayer;
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “Don’t fear what they fear, neither be troubled.”


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
having a good conscience. Thus, while you are spoken against as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good way of life in Christ.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
who before were disobedient, when God waited patiently in the days of Noah, while the ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you—not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,


book: 1Pet
contenido:
that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh, but live as to God in the spirit.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
And above all things be earnest in your love amongst yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But because you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed; because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men’s matters.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
For the time has come for judgement to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News of God?


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Therefore I exhort the elders amongst you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Shepherd the flock of God which is amongst you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, not for dishonest gain, but willingly;


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, to subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.


book: 1Pet
contenido:
Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour, Jesus Christ:


book: 2Pet
contenido:
seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Therefore, brothers,  be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For he received from God the Father honour and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”


book: 2Pet
contenido:
We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But false prophets also arose amongst the people, as false teachers will also be amongst you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
In covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn’t linger, and their destruction will not slumber.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For if God didn’t spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus,  and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved for judgement;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
and didn’t spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live in an ungodly way;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
(for that righteous man dwelling amongst them was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds):


book: 2Pet
contenido:
the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgement,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
whereas angels, though greater in might and power, don’t bring a railing judgement against them before the Lord.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But these, as unreasoning creatures, born natural animals to be taken and destroyed, speaking evil in matters about which they are ignorant, will in their destroying surely be destroyed,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
receiving the wages of unrighteousness; people who count it pleasure to revel in the daytime, spots and defects, revelling in their deceit while they feast with you;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
having eyes full of adultery, and who can’t cease from sin; enticing unsettled souls; having a heart trained in greed; children of cursing;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A mute donkey spoke with a man’s voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
These are wells without water, clouds driven by a storm; for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;


book: 2Pet
contenido:
promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.


book: 2Pet

But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, “The dog turns to his own vomit again,”  and “the sow that has washed to wallowing in the mire.”


book: 2Pet
contenido:
This is now, beloved, the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them I stir up your sincere mind by reminding you,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:


book: 2Pet
contenido:
and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”


book: 2Pet
contenido:
For this they wilfully forget that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water by the word of God,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But the heavens that exist now and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgement and destruction of ungodly men.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But don’t forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that anyone should perish, but that all should come to repentance.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burnt up.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,


book: 2Pet
contenido:
as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.


book: 2Pet
contenido:
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.


book: 1John
contenido:
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life


book: 1John
contenido:
(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);


book: 1John
contenido:
that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.


book: 1John
contenido:
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.


book: 1John
contenido:
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.


book: 1John
contenido:
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.


book: 1John
contenido:
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.


book: 1John
contenido:
My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counsellor  with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.


book: 1John
contenido:
One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.


book: 1John
contenido:
But God’s love has most certainly been perfected in whoever keeps his word. This is how we know that we are in him:


book: 1John
contenido:
Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.


book: 1John
contenido:
Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away and the true light already shines.


book: 1John
contenido:
But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and doesn’t know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.


book: 1John
contenido:
I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one.
I write to you, little children, because you know the Father.


book: 1John
contenido:
I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.


book: 1John
contenido:
Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.


book: 1John
contenido:
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.


book: 1John
contenido:
Little children, these are the end times, and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour.


book: 1John
contenido:
They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us.


book: 1John
contenido:
I have not written to you because you don’t know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.


book: 1John
contenido:
Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.


book: 1John
contenido:
Therefore, as for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father.


book: 1John
contenido:
As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him.


book: 1John
contenido:
Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.


book: 1John
contenido:
If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.


book: 1John
contenido:
See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.


book: 1John
contenido:
Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is.


book: 1John
contenido:
Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.


book: 1John
contenido:
He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.


book: 1John
contenido:
Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.


book: 1John
contenido:
In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.


book: 1John
contenido:
unlike Cain, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.


book: 1John
contenido:
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.


book: 1John
contenido:
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.


book: 1John
contenido:
By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.


book: 1John
contenido:
But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?


book: 1John
contenido:
so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.


book: 1John
contenido:
This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.


book: 1John
contenido:
He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.


book: 1John
contenido:
Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.


book: 1John
contenido:
By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,


book: 1John
contenido:
and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already.


book: 1John
contenido:
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.


book: 1John
contenido:
We are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God doesn’t listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.


book: 1John
contenido:
Beloved, let’s love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves has been born of God, and knows God.


book: 1John
contenido:
By this God’s love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.


book: 1John
contenido:
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice  for our sins.


book: 1John
contenido:
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.


book: 1John
contenido:
We know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.


book: 1John
contenido:
In this love has been made perfect amongst us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgement, because as he is, even so we are in this world.


book: 1John
contenido:
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.


book: 1John
contenido:
If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?


book: 1John
contenido:
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.


book: 1John
contenido:
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.


book: 1John
contenido:
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.


book: 1John
contenido:
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God’s testimony which he has testified concerning his Son.


book: 1John
contenido:
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.


book: 1John
contenido:
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.


book: 1John
contenido:
This is the boldness which we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.


book: 1John
contenido:
And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.


book: 1John
contenido:
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death. I don’t say that he should make a request concerning this.


book: 1John
contenido:
We know that whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t touch him.


book: 1John
contenido:
We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.


book: 2John
contenido:
The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those who know the truth,


book: 2John
contenido:
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.


book: 2John
contenido:
I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.


book: 2John
contenido:
Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.


book: 2John
contenido:
This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.


book: 2John
contenido:
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don’t confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.


book: 2John
contenido:
Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.


book: 2John
contenido:
Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.


book: 2John
contenido:
If anyone comes to you, and doesn’t bring this teaching, don’t receive him into your house, and don’t welcome him,


book: 2John
contenido:
Having many things to write to you, I don’t want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.


book: 3John
contenido:
For I rejoiced greatly when brothers came and testified about your truth, even as you walk in truth.


book: 3John
contenido:
Beloved, you do a faithful work in whatever you accomplish for those who are brothers and strangers.


book: 3John
contenido:
They have testified about your love before the assembly. You will do well to send them forward on their journey in a way worthy of God,


book: 3John
contenido:
I wrote to the assembly, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first amongst them, doesn’t accept what we say.


book: 3John
contenido:
Therefore if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, neither does he himself receive the brothers, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.


book: 3John
contenido:
Beloved, don’t imitate that which is evil, but that which is good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil hasn’t seen God.


book: 3John
contenido:
Demetrius has the testimony of all, and of the truth itself; yes, we also testify, and you know that our testimony is true.


book: 3John
contenido:
but I hope to see you soon. Then we will speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.


book: Jude
contenido:
Jude,  a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:


book: Jude
contenido:
Beloved, while I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.


book: Jude
contenido:
For there are certain men who crept in secretly, even those who were long ago written about for this condemnation: ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into indecency, and denying our only Master, God, and Lord, Jesus Christ.


book: Jude
contenido:
Now I desire to remind you, though you already know this, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who didn’t believe.


book: Jude
contenido:
Angels who didn’t keep their first domain, but deserted their own dwelling place, he has kept in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgement of the great day.


book: Jude
contenido:
Even as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, having in the same way as these given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are shown as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.


book: Jude

Yet in the same way, these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and slander celestial beings.


book: Jude
contenido:
But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you!”


book: Jude
contenido:
But these speak evil of whatever things they don’t know. They are destroyed in these things that they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason.


book: Jude
contenido:
Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in Korah’s rebellion.


book: Jude
contenido:
These are hidden rocky reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you, shepherds who without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;


book: Jude
contenido:
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever.


book: Jude
contenido:
About these also Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold,  the Lord came with ten thousands of his holy ones,


book: Jude
contenido:
to execute judgement on all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their works of ungodliness which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”


book: Jude
contenido:
These are murmurers and complainers, walking after their lusts—and their mouth speaks proud things—showing respect of persons to gain advantage.


book: Jude
contenido:
But you, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.


book: Jude
contenido:
and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.


book: Jude
contenido:
Now to him who is able to keep them  from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,


book: Jude
contenido:
to God our Saviour, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.

book: Rev
contenido:
Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.


book: Rev
contenido:
Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.


book: Rev
contenido:
Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.


book: Rev
contenido:
The first creature was like a lion, and the second creature like a calf, and the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.


book: Rev
contenido:
The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy  is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!”


book: Rev
contenido:
When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever,


book: Rev
contenido:
the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,


book: Rev
contenido:
“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One,  to receive the glory, the honour, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created!”


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?”


book: Rev
contenido:
No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book or to look in it.


book: Rev
contenido:
One of the elders said to me, “Don’t weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome: he who opens the book and its seven seals.”


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.


book: Rev
contenido:
Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.


book: Rev
contenido:
They sang a new song, saying,
“You are worthy to take the book
and to open its seals:
for you were killed,
and bought us for God with your blood
out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;


book: Rev
contenido:
saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honour, glory, and blessing!”


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honour, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen!”


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw that the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, as with a voice of thunder, “Come and see!”


book: Rev
contenido:
And behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow. A crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer.


book: Rev
contenido:
Another came out: a red horse. To him who sat on it was given power to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another. There was given to him a great sword.


book: Rev
contenido:
When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, “Come and see!” And behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a balance in his hand.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a voice in the middle of the four living creatures saying, “A choenix  of wheat for a denarius, and three choenix of barley for a denarius! Don’t damage the oil and the wine!”


book: Rev
contenido:
And behold, a pale horse, and the name of he who sat on it was Death. Hades  followed with him. Authority over one fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, with famine, with death, and by the wild animals of the earth was given to him.


book: Rev
contenido:
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had.


book: Rev
contenido:
They cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, Master, the holy and true, until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”


book: Rev
contenido:
A long white robe was given to each of them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers,  who would also be killed even as they were, should complete their course.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became as blood.


book: Rev
contenido:
The stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is shaken by a great wind.


book: Rev
contenido:
The sky was removed like a scroll when it is rolled up. Every mountain and island were moved out of their places.


book: Rev
contenido:
The kings of the earth, the princes, the commanding officers, the rich, the strong, and every slave and free person, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains.


book: Rev
contenido:
They told the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb,


book: Rev
contenido:
After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind would blow on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea,


book: Rev
contenido:
saying, “Don’t harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!”


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred and forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:


book: Rev
contenido:
of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed,
of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,


book: Rev
contenido:
of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,


book: Rev
contenido:
of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,


book: Rev
contenido:
of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand,
of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, and
of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed.


book: Rev
contenido:
After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could count, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.


book: Rev
contenido:
They cried with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”


book: Rev
contenido:
All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshipped God,


book: Rev
contenido:
saying, “Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honour, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”


book: Rev
contenido:
One of the elders answered, saying to me, “These who are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?”


book: Rev
contenido:
I told him, “My lord, you know.”
He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great suffering. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb’s blood.


book: Rev
contenido:
Therefore they are before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.


book: Rev
contenido:
for the Lamb who is in the middle of the throne shepherds them and leads them to springs of life-giving waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”


book: Rev
contenido:
Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.


book: Rev
contenido:
The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand.


book: Rev
contenido:
The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, then threw it on the earth. Thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake followed.


book: Rev
contenido:
The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burnt up,  and one third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.


book: Rev
contenido:
The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,


book: Rev
contenido:
and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.


book: Rev
contenido:
The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of the waters.


book: Rev
contenido:
The name of the star is called “Wormwood.” One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.


book: Rev
contenido:
The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that one third of them would be darkened, and the day wouldn’t shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw, and I heard an eagle,  flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the other voices of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!”


book: Rev
contenido:
The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him.


book: Rev
contenido:
He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a  burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit.


book: Rev
contenido:
Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.


book: Rev
contenido:
They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who don’t have God’s seal on their foreheads.


book: Rev
contenido:
They were given power, not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a person.


book: Rev
contenido:
In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them.


book: Rev
contenido:
The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people’s faces.


book: Rev
contenido:
They had breastplates, like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, or of many horses rushing to war.


book: Rev
contenido:
They have tails like those of scorpions, and stings. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months.


book: Rev
contenido:
They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon”,  but in Greek, he has the name “Apollyon”.


book: Rev
contenido:
saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!”


book: Rev
contenido:
The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of mankind.


book: Rev
contenido:
Thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulphur yellow; and the horses’ heads resembled lions’ heads. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulphur.


book: Rev
contenido:
By these three plagues were one third of mankind killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulphur, which proceeded out of their mouths.


book: Rev
contenido:
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads, and with them they harm.


book: Rev
contenido:
The rest of mankind, who were not killed with these plagues, didn’t repent of the works of their hands, that they wouldn’t worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood; which can’t see, hear, or walk.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw a mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.


book: Rev
contenido:
He cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices.


book: Rev
contenido:
When the seven thunders sounded, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky saying, “Seal up the things which the seven thunders said, and don’t write them.”


book: Rev
contenido:
and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there will no longer be delay,


book: Rev
contenido:
but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then the mystery of God is finished, as he declared to his servants, the prophets.


book: Rev
contenido:
The voice which I heard from heaven, again speaking with me, said, “Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the land.”


book: Rev
contenido:
I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book.
He said to me, “Take it, and eat it. It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”


book: Rev
contenido:
I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.


book: Rev
contenido:
A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise, and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.


book: Rev
contenido:
Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.


book: Rev
contenido:
I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand and two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”


book: Rev
contenido:
If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.


book: Rev
contenido:
These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.


book: Rev
contenido:
When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.


book: Rev
contenido:
Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.


book: Rev
contenido:
From amongst the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.


book: Rev
contenido:
Those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.


book: Rev
contenido:
After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them.


book: Rev
contenido:
In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified, and gave glory to the God of heaven.


book: Rev
contenido:
The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”


book: Rev
contenido:
The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshipped God,


book: Rev
contenido:
saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was;  because you have taken your great power and reigned.


book: Rev
contenido:
The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints, and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”


book: Rev
contenido:
God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.


book: Rev
contenido:
A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.


book: Rev
contenido:
Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.


book: Rev
contenido:
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.


book: Rev
contenido:
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.


book: Rev
contenido:
The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand and two hundred and sixty days.


book: Rev
contenido:
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.


book: Rev
contenido:
The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.


book: Rev
contenido:
They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.


book: Rev
contenido:
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”


book: Rev
contenido:
When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.


book: Rev
contenido:
Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.


book: Rev
contenido:
The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.


book: Rev
contenido:
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.


book: Rev
contenido:
The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring,  who keep God’s commandments and hold Jesus’ testimony.


book: Rev
contenido:
Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.


book: Rev
contenido:
The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.


book: Rev
contenido:
One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marvelled at the beast.


book: Rev
contenido:
They worshipped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast, and they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”


book: Rev
contenido:
A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.


book: Rev
contenido:
He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his dwelling, those who dwell in heaven.


book: Rev
contenido:
It was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.


book: Rev
contenido:
All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.


book: Rev
contenido:
If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed.  Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon.


book: Rev
contenido:
He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.


book: Rev
contenido:
He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.


book: Rev
contenido:
He deceives my own  people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.


book: Rev
contenido:
It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.


book: Rev
contenido:
He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads;


book: Rev
contenido:
and that no one would be able to buy or to sell, unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.


book: Rev
contenido:
Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred and sixty-six.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred and forty-four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a sound from heaven, like the sound of many waters, and like the sound of a great thunder. The sound which I heard was like that of harpists playing on their harps.


book: Rev
contenido:
They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred and forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.


book: Rev
contenido:
These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from amongst men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw an angel flying in mid heaven, having an eternal Good News to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth, and to every nation, tribe, language, and people.


book: Rev
contenido:
He said with a loud voice, “Fear the Lord, and give him glory; for the hour of his judgement has come. Worship him who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and the springs of waters!”


book: Rev
contenido:
Another, a second angel, followed, saying, “Babylon the great has fallen, which has made all the nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality.”


book: Rev
contenido:
Another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead, or on his hand,


book: Rev
contenido:
he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared unmixed in the cup of his anger. He will be tormented with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.


book: Rev
contenido:
The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. They have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.


book: Rev
contenido:
Here is the perseverance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.”


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’”
“Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labours; for their works follow with them.”


book: Rev
contenido:
I looked, and saw a white cloud, and on the cloud one sitting like a son of man,  having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.


book: Rev
contenido:
Another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, “Send your sickle, and reap; for the hour to reap has come; for the harvest of the earth is ripe!”


book: Rev
contenido:
Another angel came out from the altar, he who has power over fire, and he called with a great voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “Send your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for the earth’s grapes are fully ripe!”


book: Rev
contenido:
The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the earth, and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God.


book: Rev
contenido:
The wine press was trodden outside of the city, and blood came out of the wine press, even to the bridles of the horses, as far as one thousand and six hundred stadia.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw another great and marvellous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them God’s wrath is finished.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, his image,  and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.


book: Rev
contenido:
They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
“Great and marvellous are your works, Lord God, the Almighty!
Righteous and true are your ways, you King of the nations.


book: Rev
contenido:
Who wouldn’t fear you, Lord,
and glorify your name?
For you only are holy.
For all the nations will come and worship before you.
For your righteous acts have been revealed.”


book: Rev
contenido:
After these things I looked, and the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.


book: Rev
contenido:
The seven angels who had the seven plagues came out, clothed with pure, bright linen, and wearing golden sashes around their breasts.


book: Rev
contenido:
One of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever.


book: Rev
contenido:
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power. No one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels would be finished.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth!”


book: Rev
contenido:
The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of the beast, and who worshipped his image.


book: Rev
contenido:
The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood as of a dead man. Every living thing in the sea died.


book: Rev
contenido:
I heard the angel of the waters saying, “You are righteous, who are and who were, O Holy One, because you have judged these things.


book: Rev
contenido:
For they poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve this.”


book: Rev
contenido:
People were scorched with great heat, and people blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues. They didn’t repent and give him glory.


book: Rev
contenido:
The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was darkened. They gnawed their tongues because of the pain,


book: Rev
contenido:
and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores. They didn’t repent of their works.


book: Rev
contenido:
The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates. Its water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings that come from the sunrise.


book: Rev
contenido:
I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, something like frogs;


book: Rev
contenido:
for they are spirits of demons, performing signs; which go out to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them together for the war of that great day of God, the Almighty.


book: Rev
contenido:
“Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn’t walk naked, and they see his shame.”


book: Rev
contenido:
The seventh poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, “It is done!”

One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the judgement of the great prostitute who sits on many waters,

with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality. Those who dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality.”


book: Rev

He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-coloured beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.

The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, will make her desolate, will strip her naked, will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.

book: Rev

The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
