G1161–δέ–de

in reference to dishonour I speak, how that we were weak, and in whatever any one is bold -- in foolishness I say `it' -- I also am bold.

δ᾽ d᾽ “however”

To boast, really, is not profitable for me, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

δὲ de “however”

Of such an one I will boast, and of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities,

δὲ de “however”

for if I may wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for truth I will say; but I forebear, lest any one in regard to me may think anything above what he doth see me, or doth hear anything of me;

δὲ de “however”

and I most gladly will spend and be entirely spent for your souls, even if, more abundantly loving you, less I am loved.

δὲ de “now”

And be it `so', I -- I did not burden you, but being crafty, with guile I did take you;

δέ, de “however,”

Again, think ye that to you we are making defence? before God in Christ do we speak; and the all things, beloved, `are' for your up-building,

δὲ de “but”

and I hope that ye shall know that we -- we are not disapproved of;

δὲ de “now”

and I pray before God that ye do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved;

δὲ de “now”δὲ de “though”

for we rejoice when we may be infirm, and ye may be powerful; and this also we pray for -- your perfection!

δὲ de “however”δὲ de “now”

and when God was well pleased -- having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called `me' through His grace --

δὲ de “however”

and other of the apostles I did not see, except James, the brother of the Lord.

δὲ de “however”

And the things that I write to you, lo, before God -- I lie not;

δὲ de “now”

and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that `are' in Christ,

δὲ de “then”

and only they were hearing, that `he who is persecuting us then, doth now proclaim good news -- the faith that then he was wasting;'

δὲ de “however”

and I went up by revelation, and did submit to them the good news that I preach among the nations, and privately to those esteemed, lest in vain I might run or did run;

δὲ de “now”δὲ de “however”

and `that' because of the false brethren brought in unawares, who did come in privily to spy out our liberty that we have in Christ Jesus, that us they might bring under bondage,

δὲ de “even”

And from those who were esteemed to be something -- whatever they were then, it maketh no difference to me -- the face of man God accepteth not, for -- to me those esteemed did add nothing,

δὲ de “now”

and having known the grace that was given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who were esteemed to be pillars, a right hand of fellowship they did give to me, and to Barnabas, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision `may go',

δὲ de “however”

And when Peter came to Antioch, to the face I stood up against him, because he was blameworthy,

δὲ de “however”

for before the coming of certain from James, with the nations he was eating, and when they came, he was withdrawing and separating himself, fearing those of the circumcision,

δὲ de “however”

having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.'

δὲ de “then”

And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, `is' then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!

δὲ de “however”

with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh -- in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me;

δὲ de “now”δὲ de “however”δὲ de “then”

and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham --

δὲ de “then”
