G1653–ἐλεέω–eleeō

However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to them who should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

ἠλεήθην, ēleēthēn “I was shown mercy,”

Who in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

ἠλεημένοι, ēleēmenoi “received mercy,”ἐλεηθέντες. eleēthentes “having received mercy.”

And of some have compassion, making a difference:

ἐλεᾶτε eleate “do have mercy on”

And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

ἐλεᾶτε eleate “do show mercy”
