Book of Common Prayer

¹² Therefore dio strengthen anorthoō your ho drooping pariēmi hands cheir and kai · ho weakened paralyō knees gony ¹³ and kai make poieō straight orthos paths trochia for ho your hymeis feet pous, so that hina what ho is lame chōlos may not mē be dislocated ektrepō, but de rather mallon healed iaomai.

¹⁴ Strive for diōkō peace eirēnē with meta everyone pas, and kai for the ho holiness hagiasmos without chōris which hos no one oudeis will see horaō the ho Lord kyrios. ¹⁵ Take care episkopeō that no mē one tis forfeits hystereō apo the ho grace charis of ho God theos; and that no mē root rhiza of bitterness pikria grows phyō up anō and causes trouble enochleō and kai by dia it autos many polys are defiled miainō. ¹⁶ that no mē one tis becomes immoral pornos and ē profane bebēlos like hōs Esau ēsau, who hos gave up apodidōmi his heautou inheritance rights prōtotokia in return for anti a single heis meal brōsis. · ho ¹⁷ For gar you know oida that hoti even kai afterward metepeita, when he wanted thelō to inherit klēronomeō the ho blessing eulogia, he was rejected apodokimazō, for gar he found heuriskō no ou opportunity topos for repentance metanoia, even though kaiper he sought ekzēteō the blessing autos earnestly ekzēteō with meta tears dakryon.

¹⁸ For gar you have not ou come to proserchomai something that can be touched psēlaphaō, · kai to a blazing kaiō fire pyr, and kai darkness gnophos, and kai gloom zophos, and kai a whirlwind thuella; ¹⁹ · kai to ēchos the blast ēchos of a trumpet salpinx and kai a sound phōnē of words rhēma which hos made those ho who heard akouō it beg paraiteomai that no mē further message logos be given prostithēmi to them autos, ²⁰ for gar they could not ou endure pherō the ho order that was given diastellō: “ If even kan a wild animal thērion touches thinganō the ho mountain oros, it shall be stoned lithoboleō.” ²¹ And kai so houtōs awesome phoberos was eimi the ho spectacle phantazō that Moses Mōysēs said legō, “ I am eimi terrified ekphobos and kai trembling entromos.”

²² On the contrary alla, you have come to proserchomai Mount oros Zion Siōn, even kai to the city polis of the living zaō God theos, the heavenly epouranios Jerusalem Ierousalēm, and kai to innumerable myrias angels angelos, to a joyful assembly panēgyris, ²³ and kai to the assembly ekklēsia of the firstborn prōtotokos whose names are inscribed apographō in en heaven ouranos, and kai to God theos, the judge kritēs of all pas, and kai to the spirits pneuma of the righteous dikaios who have been made perfect teleioō, ²⁴ and kai to Jesus Iēsous, mediator mesitēs of a new neos covenant diathēkē, and kai to sprinkled rhantismos blood haima speaking laleō more effectively kreittōn than para the ho blood of Abel Habel.

²⁵ Take care blepō not mē to disregard paraiteomai the ho one who is speaking laleō! For gar if ei those ekeinos did not ou escape ekpheugō when they disregarded paraiteomai the ho one who warned chrēmatizō them on epi earth gē, how much polys less mallon will we hēmeis, if we ho reject apostrephō the ho one who warns from apo heaven ouranos. ²⁶ At that time tote his hos · ho voice phōnē shook saleuō the ho earth gē, but de now nyn he has promised epangellomai, “ Yet eti once more hapax will I egō shake seiō not ou only monon the ho earth gē but alla also kai the ho heaven ouranos.” ²⁷ The ho phrase, · de “ Yet eti once more hapax,” declares dēloō the ho removal metathesis of ho what can be shaken saleuō— that is hōs, created things poieō— so that hina what ho cannot mē be shaken saleuō may remain menō.

²⁸ Therefore dio since we are receiving paralambanō a kingdom basileia that cannot be shaken asaleutos, let us be echō thankful charis, and in dia this way hos worship latreuō God theos in an acceptable manner euarestōs, · ho with meta reverence eulabeia and kai awe deos, ²⁹ for gar indeed kai · ho our hēmeis God theos is a consuming katanaliskō fire pyr.

¹⁴ About ēdē · de halfway through mesoō the ho festival heortē Jesus Iēsous went anabainō up to eis the ho temple hieron and kai began to teach didaskō. ¹⁵ The ho Jews Ioudaios were astonished thaumazō, and they asked legō, “ How pōs does oida this houtos man know oida the sacred letters gramma, having never mē studied manthanō?” ¹⁶ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, them autos, · ho · kai saying legō, · ho “ My emos teaching didachē is eimi not ou mine emos, but alla it comes from the ho one who sent pempō me egō. ¹⁷ If ean anyone tis is willing thelō to do poieō God’ s autos · ho will thelēma, he will know ginōskō about peri the ho teaching didachē, whether poteron it comes eimi from ek · ho God theos or ē whether I egō am speaking laleō on apo my emautou own authority. ¹⁸ The ho one who speaks laleō on apo his heautou own authority seeks zēteō · ho his own idios honor doxa; · ho but de the ho one who seeks zēteō the ho honor doxa of the ho one who sent pempō him autos is eimi truthful alēthēs, and kai in en him autos there is eimi nothing ou false adikia.

¹⁹ “ Has not ou Moses Mōysēs given didōmi you hymeis the ho law nomos? Yet kai not oudeis one of ek you hymeis keeps poieō the ho law nomos. Why tis are you trying zēteō to kill apokteinō me egō?” ²⁰ The ho crowd ochlos answered apokrinomai, “ You have echō a demon daimonion! Who tis is trying zēteō to kill apokteinō you sy?” ²¹ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · kai saying legō to them autos, “ I performed poieō one heis work ergon, and kai you are all pas astonished thaumazō. ²² For dia this houtos reason Moses Mōysēs gave didōmi you hymeis · ho circumcision peritomē— not ou that hoti it is eimi from ek · ho Moses Mōysēs, but alla from ek the ho patriarchs patēr— and kai you circumcise peritemnō a man anthrōpos on en the Sabbath sabbaton. ²³ If ei a man anthrōpos receives lambanō circumcision peritomē on en the Sabbath sabbaton so hina that the ho law nomos of Moses Mōysēs may not mē be broken lyō, why are you angry cholaō with me egō because hoti I made poieō an entire holos man anthrōpos well hygiēs on en the Sabbath sabbaton? ²⁴ Do not mē judge krinō according kata to appearance opsis, but alla judge krinō with ho proper dikaios judgment krisis.”

²⁵ Then oun some tis of ek the ho people of Jerusalem Hierosolymitēs began to say legō, “ Is eimi not ou this houtos the man whom hos they are trying zēteō to kill apokteinō? ²⁶ And kai look ide, he is speaking laleō boldly parrēsia and kai they are saying legō nothing oudeis to him autos. Is it possible mēpote that our ho rulers archōn know ginōskō for sure alēthōs that hoti this houtos man is eimi the ho Christ Christos? ²⁷ Yet alla we know oida where this houtos man is eimi from pothen; when hotan the ho · de Christ Christos appears erchomai, no oudeis one will know ginōskō where pothen he is eimi from.” ²⁸ Then oun Jesus Iēsous, as he was teaching didaskō in en the ho temple hieron, · ho cried out krazō, · kai saying legō, “ You know oida me kagō, and kai you know oida where pothen I am eimi from? · kai I have erchomai not ou come erchomai on apo my emautou own . But alla the ho one who sent pempō me egō is eimi true alēthinos, and him hos you hymeis do not ou know oida; ²⁹ but I egō know oida him autos, because hoti I am eimi from para him autos and he kakeinos it is who sent apostellō me egō.” ³⁰ So oun they were anxious zēteō to arrest piazō him autos, but kai no oudeis one laid epiballō a hand cheir on epi him autos, · ho because hoti his autos hour hōra had not oupō yet come erchomai. · ho ³¹ Yet de many polys of ek the ho crowd ochlos believed pisteuō in eis him autos, · kai saying legō, “ When hotan the ho Christ Christos comes erchomai, he will poieō not mē perform poieō more polys miraculous sēmeion signs than hos this houtos man has poieō, will he?”

³² The ho Pharisees Pharisaios heard akouō the ho crowd ochlos secretly discussing gongyzō these things houtos about peri Jesus autos, so kai the ho chief priests archiereus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios sent apostellō · ho temple hypēretēs guards to hina arrest piazō him autos. ³³ Then oun Jesus Iēsous said legō, · ho “ I will be eimi with meta you hymeis for a little mikros while chronos longer eti, and kai then I am going hypagō back to pros the ho one who sent pempō me egō. ³⁴ You will look zēteō for me egō, but kai you will not ou find heuriskō me egō; and kai where hopou I egō am eimi, you hymeis cannot ou dynamai go erchomai.” ³⁵ Then oun the ho Jews Ioudaios said legō to pros one heautou another , “ Where pou is this houtos man about mellō to go poreuō that hoti we hēmeis will not ou find heuriskō him autos? Surely he is mellō not mē going mellō to go poreuō to eis our ho people dispersed diaspora among the ho Greeks Hellēn and kai teach didaskō the ho Greeks Hellēn, is he ? ³⁶ What tis can it mean eimi, · ho this houtos saying logos of his hos: ‘ You will look zēteō for me egō but kai you will not ou find heuriskō me egō,’ and kai ‘ Where hopou I egō am eimi you hymeis cannot ou dynamai go erchomai’?”
