And the officers H7860 shall speak H1696 to the people, H5971 saying, H559 What H4310 man H376 is there that has built H1129 a new H2319 house, H1004 and has not dedicated H2596 it? let him go H3212 and return H7725 to his house, H1004 lest H6435 he die H4191 in the battle, H4421 and another H312 man H376 dedicate H2596 it.

And what H4310 man H376 is there that has betrothed H781 a wife, H802 and has not taken H3947 her? let him go H3212 and return H7725 to his house, H1004 lest H6435 he die H4191 in the battle, H4421 and another H312 man H376 take H3947 her.

And he said G2036 to another, G2087 Follow G190 me. But he said, G2036 Lord, G2962 suffer G2010 me first G4412 to go G565 and bury G2290 my father. G3962

And another G2087 also G2532 said, G2036 Lord, G2962 I will follow G190 you; but let G2010 me first G4412 go bid G657 them farewell, G657 which are at G1519 home at my house. G3624

For Demas G1214 has forsaken G1459 me, having loved G25 this G3588 present G3568 world, G165 and is departed G4198 to Thessalonica; G2332 Crescens G2913 to Galatia, G1053 Titus G5103 to Dalmatia. G1149

And that which fell G4098 among G1519 thorns G173 are they, which, when they have heard, G191 go G4198 forth, G4198 and are choked G4846 with cares G3308 and riches G4149 and pleasures G2237 of this G3588 life, G979 and bring G5052 no G3756 fruit G5062 to perfection. G5052

And every G3956 man that strives G75 for the mastery is temperate G1467 in all G3956 things. Now G3303 they do it to obtain G2983 a corruptible G5349 crown; G4735 but we an incorruptible. G862

I therefore G5106 so G3779 run, G5143 not as uncertainly; G84 so G3779 fight G4438 I, not as one that beats G1194 the air: G109

But they that will G1014 be rich G4147 fall into G1519 temptation G3986 and a snare, G3803 and into G1519 many G4183 foolish G453 and hurtful G983 lusts, G1939 which G3748 drown G1036 men G444 in destruction G3639 and perdition. G684

But you, O man G444 of God, G2316 flee G5343 these G5023 things; and follow G1377 after righteousness, G1343 godliness, G2150 faith, G4102 love, G26 patience, G5281 meekness. G4236

For if G1487 after they have escaped G668 the pollutions G3393 of the world G2889 through G1722 the knowledge G1922 of the Lord G2962 and Savior G4990 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 they are again G3825 entangled G1707 therein, G5125 and overcome, G2274 the latter G2078 end G2078 is worse G5501 with them than the beginning. G4413

For he that is called G2564 in the Lord, G2962 being a servant, G1401 is the Lord's G2962 freeman: G558 likewise G3668 also G2532 he that is called, G2564 being free, G1658 is Christ's G5547 servant. G1401

You are bought G59 with a price; G5092 be not you the servants G1401 of men. G444

Why G1352 we labor, G5389 that, whether G1535 present G1736 or G1535 absent, G1553 we may be accepted G2101 of him.

But as we were allowed G1381 of God G2316 to be put G4160 in trust G4100 with the gospel, G2098 even so G3779 we speak; G2980 not as pleasing G700 men, G444 but God, G2316 which tries G1381 our hearts. G2588
