Matt.6:26 |
26ἐμβλέψατε
εἰς
τὰ
πετεινὰ
τοῦ
οὐρανοῦ.
ὅτι
οὐ
σπείρουσιν
οὐδὲ
θερίζουσιν
οὐδὲ
συνάγουσιν
εἰς
ἀποθήκας,
καὶ
ὁ
πατὴρ
ὑμῶν
ὁ
οὐράνιος
τρέφει
αὐτά.
οὐχ
ὑμεῖς
μᾶλλον
διαφέρετε
αὐτῶν; |
26 Look at the birds . {NEQ} They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns , for your {RPT} heavenly {RPT} Father feeds them . And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are ? |
Matt.6:30 |

30 And if {NEQ} God cares so wonderfully for {NEQ} wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow , he will certainly care for you . Why do you have so little faith ? |
Matt.7:11 |
11εἰ
οὖν
ὑμεῖς

11 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your {NEQ} children , how much more will your {RPT} {NEQ} heavenly {RPT} Father give good gifts to those who ask him . |
Matt.10:6 |
6πορεύεσθε

μᾶλλον
πρὸς
τὰ
πρόβατα
τὰ
ἀπολωλότα—
οἴκου

6 but only to the people of Israel — God’s {RPT} lost {RPT} sheep . |
Matt.10:25 |
25ἀρκετὸν

25 {NEQ} Students {NEQ} are to be like their {NEQ} teacher , and {NEQ} slaves are to be like their {NEQ} master . And since I , the master of the household , have been called the prince of demons , * the members of my household will be called by even worse names ! |
Matt.10:28 |
28καὶ

28 “ {NEQ} Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body ; {NEQ} they cannot touch your soul . Fear only God , who can destroy both soul and body in hell . * |
Matt.18:13 |
13καὶ

13 And if he finds it , I tell you the truth , {NEQ} he will rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn’t wander away ! |
Matt.25:9 |

9 “ But the others replied , ‘ We don’t have enough for all of us . Go to a shop and buy some for yourselves . ’ |

24 {NEQ} Pilate saw {NEQ} that he wasn’t getting anywhere and that {NEQ} a riot was developing . So he sent for a bowl of water and washed his hands before the crowd , saying , “ I am innocent of this man’s {NEQ} blood . The responsibility is yours ! ” |
Mark.5:26 |

26 {NEQ} She had suffered a great deal from many doctors , and over the years she had spent everything she had to pay them , but she had gotten no better . In fact , she had gotten {NEQ} worse . |
Mark.7:36 |
36καὶ

36 {NEQ} Jesus told the crowd not to tell anyone , but the more he told them not to , the more they spread the news . |
Mark.9:42 |
42καὶ

42 “ But if you cause one of these {RPT} little ones who {RPT} trusts in me to fall into sin , it would be {NEQ} {NEQ} better for you {NEQ} to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone hung around your {NEQ} neck . |
Mark.10:48 |
48καὶ

48 “ {NEQ} Be quiet ! ” many of the people yelled at him . But he only shouted louder , “ Son of David , have mercy on me ! ” |
Mark.15:11 |

11 But at this point the leading priests stirred up the crowd to demand the release of {NEQ} Barabbas instead of Jesus {RPT} . |
Luke.5:15 |
15διήρχετο

15 But despite Jesus' instructions , the report of his power spread even faster , and vast crowds came to hear him preach and to be healed of their {NEQ} diseases . |
Luke.11:13 |
13εἰ

13 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your {NEQ} children , how much more will your {RPT} heavenly {RPT} Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him . ” |
Luke.12:24 |
24κατανοήσατε

24 Look at the ravens . {NEQ} They don’t plant or harvest {RPT} {RPT} or store food in barns , for {NEQ} God feeds them . And you are far more valuable to him than any birds ! |
Luke.12:28 |

28 And if {NEQ} God cares so wonderfully for {NEQ} flowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow , he will certainly care for you . Why do you have so little faith ? |
Luke.18:39 |

39 “ Be quiet ! ” {NEQ} the people in front yelled at him . But he only shouted louder , “ Son of David , have mercy on me ! ” |
John.3:19 |
19αὕτη
δέ
ἐστιν
ἡ
κρίσις·
ὅτι
τὸ

εἰς
τὸν
κόσμον,
καὶ
ἠγάπησαν
οἱ
ἄνθρωποι
μᾶλλον
τὸ
σκότος
ἢ

φῶς,
ἦν
γὰρ
αὐτῶν
πονηρὰ
τὰ
ἔργα. |
19 And the judgment is based on this fact : {NEQ} God’s light came into the world , but {NEQ} people loved the darkness more than the light , for their {NEQ} actions were evil . |
John.5:18 |
18διὰ
τοῦτο
οὖν

18 So the Jewish leaders tried all the harder to find a way to kill him . For he not only broke the Sabbath , {RPT} {RPT} he called {NEQ} God his Father , thereby making himself equal with {NEQ} God . |
John.12:43 |
43ἠγάπησαν
γὰρ
τὴν
δόξαν
τῶν
ἀνθρώπων
μᾶλλον
ἤπερ
τὴν
δόξαν
τοῦ
θεοῦ. |
43 For they loved {NEQ} human {NEQ} praise more than the praise of {NEQ} God . |
John.19:8 |
8ὅτε
οὖν
ἤκουσεν
ὁ
Πειλᾶτος
τοῦτον
τὸν
λόγον,
μᾶλλον

8 When {NEQ} Pilate heard this , he was more frightened than ever . |
Acts.4:19 |
19ὁ

19 But {NEQ} Peter and John replied {RPT} , “ {NEQ} Do you think {NEQ} God wants us to obey you rather than him ? |
Acts.5:14 |
14μᾶλλον

προσετίθεντο

14 Yet more and more people believed and were brought to the Lord — crowds of both men and women . |
Acts.5:29 |
29ἀποκριθεὶς

καὶ
οἱ
ἀπόστολοι
εἶπαν,

29 But Peter and the apostles replied , “ We must obey God rather than any human authority . |
Acts.9:22 |

22 {NEQ} Saul’s preaching became more and more powerful , and the Jews in Damascus couldn’t refute his proofs that Jesus was indeed the Messiah . |
Acts.20:35 |
35πάντα

35 And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard . {NEQ} You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus {RPT} : ‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive . ’ ” |
Acts.22:2 |
2ἀκούσαντες
δὲ
ὅτι
τῇ
Ἑβραΐδι
διαλέκτῳ
προσεφώνει
αὐτοῖς,
μᾶλλον
παρέσχον

2 {NEQ} When they heard him {NEQ} speaking {RPT} in their own language , * the silence was even greater . |
Acts.27:11 |
11ὁ

11 But the officer in charge of the prisoners listened more to the ship’s captain and the owner than to Paul . |
Rom.5:9 |
9πολλῷ
οὖν
μᾶλλον
δικαιωθέντες
νῦν
ἐν
τῷ
αἵματι
αὐτοῦ,

9 And since we have been made right in God’s sight by the blood of Christ , he will certainly save us from God’s condemnation . |
Rom.5:10 |
10εἰ
γὰρ
ἐχθροὶ
ὄντες
κατηλλάγημεν
τῷ
θεῷ
διὰ
τοῦ
θανάτου
τοῦ
υἱοῦ
αὐτοῦ,
πολλῷ
μᾶλλον

σωθησόμεθα
ἐν
τῇ
ζωῇ
αὐτοῦ· |
10 For since our friendship with {NEQ} God was restored by the death of his {NEQ} Son while we were still his enemies , {RPT} we will certainly be saved through the life of his Son . |
Rom.5:15 |
15ἀλλ᾽
οὐχ
ὡς
τὸ
παράπτωμα
οὕτως
καὶ
τὸ
χάρισμα·
εἰ

Ἰησοῦ
Χριστοῦ,

15 But there is a great difference between Adam’s sin and God’s gracious gift . For {NEQ} the sin of this one man , Adam , brought death to {NEQ} many . But even greater is {NEQ} God’s {NEQ} wonderful grace and his gift of forgiveness {NEQ} to {NEQ} many through this other man , Jesus Christ . |
Rom.5:17 |
17εἰ
γὰρ
τῷ

ἑνός,
Ἰησοῦ
Χριστοῦ. |
17 For {NEQ} the sin of this one man , Adam , caused {NEQ} death to rule over many {RPT} {RPT} {RPT} . But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of {NEQ} righteousness , for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man , Jesus Christ . |
Rom.8:34 |
34τίς

34 Who {NEQ} then will condemn us ? No one — for Christ Jesus {NEQ} died for us and was raised to life for us , and he is sitting in the place of honor at {NEQ} God’s right hand , {RPT} {NEQ} pleading for us . |
Rom.11:12 |
12εἰ

12 Now if the Gentiles were enriched because the people of Israel turned down God’s offer of salvation {RPT} , think how much greater a blessing the world will share when they finally accept it . |
Rom.11:24 |
24εἰ
γὰρ
σύ,
ἐκ
τῆς
κατὰ

ἐξεκόπης
ἀγριελαίου.
καὶ

ἰδίᾳ

24 {NEQ} {NEQ} You , by {NEQ} nature , were a branch cut from {RPT} a wild olive tree . So if God was willing to do something contrary to nature by grafting you into his cultivated tree , he will be far more eager to graft the original branches back into the tree where they belong . |
Rom.14:13 |
13μηκέτι
οὖν
ἀλλήλους

ἀλλὰ
τοῦτο
κρίνατε
μᾶλλον
τὸ

13 So let’s stop condemning each other . Decide instead to live in such a way that you will {NEQ} not cause another believer to stumble and fall . |
1Cor.5:2 |
2καὶ
ὑμεῖς
πεφυσιωμένοι
ἐστέ,
καὶ
οὐχὶ
μᾶλλον
ἐπενθήσατε·
ἵνα
ἀρθῇ

ἔργον
τοῦτο
πράξας. |
2 {NEQ} You are so proud of yourselves , but you should be mourning in sorrow and shame . And you should remove this man {RPT} from your fellowship . |
1Cor.6:7 |
7ἤδη

7 Even to have such {NEQ} lawsuits {NEQ} with one another is a defeat for you . Why not just accept the injustice and leave it at that ? Why not {RPT} let yourselves be cheated ? |
1Cor.7:21 |
21δοῦλος

21 Are you a slave ? Don’t let that worry you — but if you get a chance to be free , take it . |
1Cor.9:12 |
12εἰ

ἀλλὰ

Χριστοῦ. |
12 If you support others who preach to you , shouldn’t we have an even greater right to be supported ? But we have never used this {NEQ} right . We would rather put up with anything than be {RPT} an obstacle to the Good News about {NEQ} Christ . |
1Cor.9:15 |
15ἐγὼ

15 Yet I have never used any of these rights . And I am not writing this to suggest that I want to start now . In fact , I would rather die than {NEQ} lose my right {NEQ} to boast about preaching without charge . |
1Cor.12:22 |
22ἀλλὰ
πολλῷ

τὰ

22 In fact , some parts of the body that seem weakest and least important are actually the most necessary . |
1Cor.14:1 |
1διώκετε
τὴν
ἀγάπην.
ζηλοῦτε
δὲ
τὰ
πνευματικά—
μᾶλλον
δὲ
ἵνα
προφητεύητε. |
14:1 Let {NEQ} love be your highest goal ! But you should also desire the special abilities the Spirit gives — especially the ability to prophesy . |
1Cor.14:5 |
5θέλω

ἵνα
ἡ
ἐκκλησία

λάβῃ. |
5 {NEQ} I wish you could all speak in tongues , but even more I wish you could all prophesy . For {NEQ} prophecy is greater than {NEQ} speaking in tongues , unless someone interprets what you are saying so that the whole church will be strengthened . |
1Cor.14:18 |
18εὐχαριστῶ
τῷ
θεῷ
πάντων
ὑμῶν
μᾶλλον

18 I thank {NEQ} God that I speak in tongues more than any of you . |
2Cor.2:7 |
7ὥστε,

7 Now , however , it is time {RPT} to forgive and comfort him . Otherwise {NEQ} he may be overcome by {NEQ} discouragement . |
2Cor.3:8 |
8πῶς
οὐχὶ
μᾶλλον,
ἡ
διακονία

8 Shouldn’t we expect far greater glory under the new way , now that the Holy Spirit is giving life ? |
2Cor.3:9 |
9εἰ

9 If {NEQ} the old way , which brings condemnation , was glorious , how much more glorious is the new way , which makes us right with God ! |
2Cor.3:11 |

11 So if the old way , which has been replaced , was glorious , how much more glorious is the new , which remains forever ! |
2Cor.5:8 |
8θαρροῦμεν
δὲ
καὶ
εὐδοκοῦμεν,
μᾶλλον
ἐκδημῆσαι
ἐκ
τοῦ
σώματος,
καὶ
ἐνδημῆσαι
πρὸς
τὸν
κύριον. |
8 Yes , we are fully confident , and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies , for then we will be at home with the Lord . |
2Cor.7:7 |
7οὐ
μόνον
δὲ
ἐν
τῇ
παρουσίᾳ
αὐτοῦ,
ἀλλὰ
καὶ
ἐν
τῇ
παρακλήσει
ᾗ
παρεκλήθη
ἐφ᾽
ὑμῖν·
ἀναγγέλλων
ἡμῖν
τὴν
ὑμῶν
ἐπιπόθησιν,
τὸν
ὑμῶν
ὀδυρμόν,
τὸν
ὑμῶν
ζῆλον
ὑπὲρ
ἐμοῦ,
ὥστε
με
μᾶλλον
χαρῆναι. |
7 His {NEQ} presence was a joy {NEQ} {NEQ} {NEQ} {NEQ} , but so was the news he brought of the encouragement he received {RPT} from you . When he told us {NEQ} how much you long to see me , and {NEQ} how sorry you are for what happened , and {NEQ} how loyal you are to me , {NEQ} I was filled with joy ! |
2Cor.7:13 |
13διὰ
τοῦτο
παρακεκλήμεθα.
ἐπὶ
δὲ
τῇ
παρακλήσει
ἡμῶν,
περισσοτέρως
μᾶλλον
ἐχάρημεν
ἐπὶ
τῇ
χαρᾷ
Τίτου
ὅτι
ἀναπέπαυται
τὸ
πνεῦμα
αὐτοῦ
ἀπὸ
πάντων
ὑμῶν· |
13 We have been greatly encouraged by this . In addition {NEQ} to our own encouragement , we were especially delighted to see how {NEQ} happy Titus {NEQ} was about the way all of you welcomed him and set his {NEQ} mind * at ease . |
2Cor.12:9 |
9καὶ
εἴρηκέν
μοι,
Ἀρκεῖ
σοι
ἡ
χάρις
μου·
ἡ
γὰρ
δύναμις
ἐν
ἀσθενείᾳ
τελεῖται.
ἥδιστα
οὖν
μᾶλλον
καυχήσομαι
ἐν
ταῖς
ἀσθενείαις
μου,
ἵνα
ἐπισκηνώσῃ
ἐπ᾽
ἐμὲ
ἡ
δύναμις
τοῦ
Χριστοῦ. |
9 Each time he said {RPT} , “ My {NEQ} grace is all you need . {NEQ} My power works best in weakness . ” So now I am glad to boast about my {NEQ} weaknesses , so that the power of {NEQ} Christ can work through {RPT} me . |
Gal.4:9 |
9νῦν
δὲ
γνόντες
θεὸν
(μᾶλλον,
δὲ
γνωσθέντες
ὑπὸ
θεοῦ),
πῶς
ἐπιστρέφετε
πάλιν
ἐπὶ
τὰ
ἀσθενῆ
καὶ
πτωχὰ
στοιχεῖα
οἷς
πάλιν
ἄνωθεν
δουλεύειν
θέλετε; |
9 So now that you know God ( or should I say , now that God knows you ) , why do you want to go back again and become slaves {RPT} once more to the weak and useless spiritual principles of this world ? |
Gal.4:27 |
27γέγραπται

Εὐφράνθητι,
στεῖρα,

ὅτι

ἢ

27 As Isaiah said , “ Rejoice , O childless woman , you who have never given birth ! Break into a joyful shout , you who have never been in labor ! For the desolate woman now has more {NEQ} children than the woman who lives with her husband ! ” * |
Eph.4:28 |
28ὁ

28 If you are a thief , quit stealing . Instead , use your hands for good hard work , and then give generously to others in need . |
Eph.5:4 |
4καὶ
αἰσχρότης,
καὶ
μωρολογία,
ἢ

ἃ
οὐκ

ἀλλὰ

4 {NEQ} Obscene stories , {NEQ} foolish talk , and coarse jokes — these are not for you . Instead , let there be thankfulness to God . |
Eph.5:11 |
11καὶ
μὴ
συνκοινωνεῖτε
τοῖς
ἔργοις
τοῖς
ἀκάρποις
τοῦ
σκότους,

11 {NEQ} Take no part in the worthless {RPT} deeds {NEQ} of evil and darkness ; instead , expose them . |
Phil.1:9 |
9καὶ
τοῦτο
προσεύχομαι
ἵνα
ἡ
ἀγάπη
ὑμῶν
ἔτι
μᾶλλον
καὶ
μᾶλλον

ἐν
ἐπιγνώσει
καὶ

9 I pray that your {NEQ} love {NEQ} will overflow more and more , and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding . |
Phil.1:12 |
12γινώσκειν

ἀδελφοί,
ὅτι

12 And I want you to know , my dear brothers and sisters , * that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News . |
Phil.1:23 |
23συνέχομαι

τὴν
ἐπιθυμίαν

23 I’m torn {NEQ} between {NEQ} two desires : I long to go and be with Christ , {NEQ} which would be far better for me . |
Phil.2:12 |
12ὥστε
ἀγαπητοί
μου,
καθὼς
πάντοτε
ὑπηκούσατε
μὴ
ὡς

τῇ
παρουσίᾳ

ἀλλὰ
νῦν,

τῇ
ἀπουσίᾳ
μου·
μετὰ
φόβου
καὶ

ἑαυτῶν
σωτηρίαν

12 {NEQ} Dear friends {RPT} , {NEQ} you always followed my instructions {NEQ} when I was with {NEQ} you . And now that I am away , it is even more important . Work hard to show the results of your {NEQ} salvation , obeying God with deep reverence and fear . |
Phil.3:4 |
4καίπερ

4 though I could have confidence in {NEQ} my own effort if anyone could . Indeed , if others have reason for confidence in their own efforts , I have even more ! |
1Thes.4:1 |
1λοιπόν,
ἀδελφοί,
ἐρωτῶμεν
ὑμᾶς
καὶ
παρακαλοῦμεν
ἐν
κυρίῳ
Ἰησοῦ·
ἵνα
καθὼς
παρελάβετε
παρ᾽
ἡμῶν,
τὸ
πῶς
δεῖ
ὑμᾶς
περιπατεῖν
καὶ
ἀρέσκειν
θεῷ·
καθὼς
καὶ
περιπατεῖτε,
ἵνα
περισσεύητε
μᾶλλον. |
4:1 Finally , dear brothers and sisters , * we urge you in the name of the Lord Jesus {NEQ} {NEQ} {NEQ} {RPT} to live {NEQ} in a way that pleases God , as we have taught you . You live this way already , and we encourage you to do so even more . |
1Thes.4:10 |
10καὶ
γάρ,
ποιεῖτε
αὐτὸ
εἰς
πάντας
τοὺς
ἀδελφοὺς
τοὺς
ἐν
ὅλῃ
τῇ
Μακεδονίᾳ.
παρακαλοῦμεν
δὲ
ὑμᾶς,
ἀδελφοί,
περισσεύειν
μᾶλλον· |
10 Indeed {NEQ} , you already show your love for all the believers {RPT} * throughout {NEQ} Macedonia . Even so , dear brothers and sisters , we urge you to love them even more . |
1Tim.1:4 |
4μηδὲ
προσέχειν

καὶ
γενεαλογίαις

αἵτινες

μᾶλλον
ἢ
οἰκονομίαν

τὴν
ἐν
πίστει. |
4 Don’t let them waste their time in endless discussion of myths and spiritual pedigrees . These things only lead to meaningless speculations , * which don’t help {NEQ} {NEQ} people live a life of {NEQ} faith in God . * |
1Tim.6:2 |
2οἱ
δὲ
πιστοὺς
ἔχοντες
δεσπότας,
μὴ
καταφρονείτωσαν·
ὅτι
ἀδελφοί
εἰσιν
ἀλλὰ
μᾶλλον
δουλευέτωσαν
ὅτι
πιστοί
εἰσιν
καὶ
ἀγαπητοὶ
οἱ
τῆς
εὐεργεσίας
ἀντιλαμβανόμενοι.
ταῦτα
δίδασκε,
καὶ
παρακάλει. |
2 {NEQ} {NEQ} {NEQ} If the masters are believers , that is no excuse for being disrespectful . Those slaves {NEQ} {NEQ} should work all the harder because their efforts {NEQ} {NEQ} are helping other believers * {NEQ} who are well loved . Teach these things , Timothy , and encourage everyone to obey them . |
2Tim.3:4 |
4προδόται,
προπετεῖς,
τετυφωμένοι,
φιλήδονοι
μᾶλλον
ἢ
φιλόθεοι· |
4 They will betray their friends , be reckless , be puffed up with pride , and love pleasure rather than God . |
Phlm.1:9 |
9διὰ
τὴν
ἀγάπην,
μᾶλλον
παρακαλῶ·
τοιοῦτος
ὤν—
ὡς
Παῦλος,
πρεσβύτης,
νυνὶ
δὲ
καὶ
δέσμιος
Χριστοῦ
Ἰησοῦ. |
9 But because of our love , I prefer simply to ask you . Consider this as a request from me — {NEQ} Paul , an old man and now also a prisoner for the sake of Christ Jesus . |
Phlm.1:16 |
16οὐκέτι
ὡς
δοῦλον·
ἀλλὰ
ὑπὲρ
δοῦλον,
ἀδελφὸν
ἀγαπητόν,
μάλιστα
ἐμοί.
πόσῳ

μᾶλλον
σοί,
καὶ
ἐν
σαρκὶ
καὶ
ἐν
κυρίῳ. |
16 He is no longer like a slave to you . {NEQ} He is more than a slave , for he is a beloved brother , especially to me . Now he will mean much more to you , both as a man and as a brother in the Lord . |
Heb.9:14 |
14πόσῳ
μᾶλλον
τὸ
αἷμα
τοῦ
Χριστοῦ,
ὃς

πνεύματος
αἰωνίου,
ἑαυτὸν

τῷ
θεῷ,
καθαριεῖ
τὴν
συνείδησιν
ἡμῶν
ἀπὸ
νεκρῶν
ἔργων
εἰς
τὸ
λατρεύειν
θεῷ
ζῶντι. |
14 Just think how much more the blood of {NEQ} Christ will purify our {NEQ} consciences from sinful deeds * so that we can worship the living God . For by the power of the eternal Spirit , Christ offered himself to {NEQ} God as a perfect sacrifice for our sins . |
Heb.10:25 |
25μὴ
ἐγκαταλείποντες
τὴν
ἐπισυναγωγὴν
ἑαυτῶν,
καθὼς

ἀλλὰ
παρακαλοῦντες,
καὶ

μᾶλλον
ὅσῳ
βλέπετε
ἐγγίζουσαν
τὴν
ἡμέραν. |
25 And let us not neglect our {NEQ} meeting together , as some people do , but encourage one another , especially now that the day of his return is drawing near . |
Heb.11:25 |
25μᾶλλον
ἑλόμενος
συνκακουχεῖσθαι

θεοῦ
ἢ

25 He chose to share the oppression of {NEQ} God’s {NEQ} people instead of enjoying the fleeting pleasures of sin . |
Heb.12:9 |
9εἶτα
τοὺς

τῆς
σαρκὸς
ἡμῶν

ἐνετρεπόμεθα,
οὐ

τῷ
πατρὶ
τῶν
πνευμάτων,
καὶ

9 Since {NEQ} we respected {NEQ} {NEQ} our earthly fathers who disciplined us , shouldn’t we submit even more to the discipline of the Father of our spirits , and live forever ? * |
Heb.12:13 |
13καὶ
τροχιὰς
ὀρθὰς
ποιεῖτε
τοῖς
ποσὶν
ὑμῶν
ἵνα
μὴ
τὸ
χωλὸν
ἐκτραπῇ

μᾶλλον. |
13 {NEQ} Mark out a straight path for your {NEQ} feet so that those who are weak and lame will not fall but become strong . |
Heb.12:25 |
25βλέπετε
μὴ
παραιτήσησθε
τὸν
λαλοῦντα·
εἰ
γὰρ
ἐκεῖνοι
οὐκ
ἐξέφυγον,
ἐπὶ

παραιτησάμενοι
τὸν
χρηματίζοντα,
πολὺ
μᾶλλον
ἡμεῖς
οἱ

ἀπ᾽
οὐρανῶν
ἀποστρεφόμενοι· |
25 Be careful that you do not refuse to listen to the One who is speaking . For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses , the earthly messenger , we will certainly not escape if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven ! |
2Pet.1:10 |
10διὸ
μᾶλλον,
ἀδελφοί,
σπουδάσατε
βεβαίαν
ὑμῶν
τὴν
κλῆσιν

ἐκλογὴν
ποιεῖσθαι·
ταῦτα
γὰρ
ποιοῦντες,
οὐ
μὴ
πταίσητέ
ποτε. |
10 So , dear brothers and sisters , * work hard to prove that you really are among those God has {NEQ} called and chosen . Do {NEQ} these things , and you will never fall away . |
