G0235–ἀλλά–alla

For which cause we do not give way to weariness; but though our outer man is getting feebler, our inner man is made new day by day.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “yet”

While our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

For truly, we who are in this tent do give out cries of weariness, for the weight of care which is on us; not because we are desiring to be free from the body, but so that we may have our new body, and death may be overcome by life.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

We are not again requesting your approval, but we are giving you the chance of taking pride in us, so that you may be able to give an answer to those whose glory is in seeming, and not in the heart.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

And that he underwent death for all, so that the living might no longer be living to themselves, but to him who underwent death for them and came back from the dead.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

For this reason, from this time forward we have knowledge of no man after the flesh: even if we have had knowledge of Christ after the flesh, we have no longer any such knowledge.

ἀλλὰ alla “yet”

But in everything making it clear that we are the servants of God, in quiet strength, in troubles, in need, in sorrow,

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “rather”

For even when we had come into Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; there were fightings outside and fears inside.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

But God who gives comfort to the poor in spirit gave us comfort by the coming of Titus;

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “But”

And not by his coming only, but by the comfort which he had in you, while he gave us word of your desire, your sorrow, your care for me; so that I was still more glad.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

Now I am glad, not that you had sorrow, but that your sorrow was the cause of a change of heart; for yours was a holy sorrow so that you might undergo no loss by us in anything.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

For you see what care was produced in you by this very sorrow of yours before God, what clearing of yourselves, what wrath against sin, what fear, what desire, what serious purpose, what punishment. In everything you have made it clear that you are free

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but instead”ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”ἀλλὰ alla “but”ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”ἀλλὰ alla “but”ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

So though I sent you a letter, it was not only because of the man who did the wrong, or because of him to whom the wrong was done, but so that your true care for us might be made clear in the eyes of God.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but rather”

For I was not put to shame in anything in which I may have made clear to him my pride in you; but as we said nothing to you but what was true, so the good things which I said to Titus about you were seen by him to be true.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

And going even farther than our hope, they first gave themselves to the Lord and to us after the purpose of God.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

And that as you are full of every good thing, of faith, of the word, of knowledge, of a ready mind, and of love to us, so you may be full of this grace in the same way.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “But”

I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”

And not only so, but he was marked out by the churches to go with us in the grace of this giving which we have undertaken to the glory of the Lord and to make clear that our mind was ready:

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

For the business has been so ordered by us as to have the approval, not only of the Lord, but of men.

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

For this work of giving not only takes care of the needs of the saints, but is the cause of much praise to God;

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

(For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);

ἀλλὰ alla “but”

For we will not make comparison of ourselves with some of those who say good things about themselves: but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and making comparison of themselves with themselves, are not wise.

ἀλλ᾽ all᾽ “but”
