G3588–ὁ–ho

Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

ὁ ho “the”τῇ tēa “To the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῇ tēa “which”τοῖς tois “the”τοῖς tois “who”τῇ tēa “<the>”

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort;

ὁ ho “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “the”τῶν tōn “<the>”

Who gives us comfort in all our troubles, so that we may be able to give comfort to others who are in trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

ὁ ho “who”τῇ tēa “the”τὸ to “<the>”τοὺς tous “those”τῆς tēs “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

For as we undergo more of the pain which Christ underwent, so through Christ does our comfort become greater.

τὰ ta “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τοῦ tou “<the>”ἡ hē “the”

But if we are troubled, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which takes effect through your quiet undergoing of the same troubles which we undergo:

τῆς tēs “<the>”τῆς tēs “<the>”τῆς tēs “which”τῶν tōn “of the”

And our hope for you is certain; in the knowledge that as you take part in the troubles, so you will take part in the comfort.

ἡ hē “the”τῶν tōn “of the”τῆς tēs “of the”

For it is our desire that you may not be without knowledge of our trouble which came on us in Asia, that the weight of it was very great, more than our power, so that it seemed that we had no hope even of life:

τῆς tēs “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”τῇ tēa “<the>”τοῦ tou “<the>”

Yes, we ourselves have had the answer of death in ourselves, so that our hope might not be in ourselves, but in God who is able to give life to the dead:

τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῷ tō “<the>”τῷ tō “who”τοὺς tous “the”

You at the same time helping together by your prayer for us; so that for what has been given to us through a number of persons, praise may go up to God for us from all of them.

τῇ tēa “<the>”τὸ to “for the”

For our glory is in this, in the knowledge which we have that our way of life in the world, and most of all in relation to you, has been holy and true in the eyes of God; not in the wisdom of the flesh, but in the grace of God.

ἡ hē “<the>”τὸ to “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῷ tō “the”

Even as you have been ready, in part, to say that we are your glory, in the same way that you are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.

τῇ tēa “the”τοῦ tou “of the”

And being certain of this, it was my purpose to come to you before, so that you might have a second grace;

τῇ tēa “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”

And by way of Corinth to go into Macedonia, and from there to come back again to you, so that you might send me on my way to Judaea.

τὴν tēn “<the>”

If then I had such a purpose, did I seem to be changing suddenly? or am I guided in my purposes by the flesh, saying, Yes, today, and, No, tomorrow?

τῇ tēa “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”

As God is true, our word to you is not Yes and No.

ὁ ho “<the>”ὁ ho “the”ὁ ho “<the>”

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we were preaching among you, even I and Silvanus and Timothy, was not Yes and No, but in him is Yes.

ὁ ho “The”τοῦ tou “<the>”ὁ ho “the [One]”

For he is the Yes to all the undertakings of God: and by him all the words of God are made certain and put into effect, to the glory of God through us.

τὸ to “[is] the”τὸ to “the”τῷ tō “<the>”

Now he who makes our faith strong together with you, in Christ, and has given us of his grace, is God;

ὁ ho “The [One]”

And it is he who has put his stamp on us, even the Spirit, as the sign in our hearts of the coming glory.

ὁ ho “the [One]”τὸν ton “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ταῖς tais “the”

But God is my witness that it was in pity for you that I did not come to Corinth at that time.

τὸν ton “<the>”τὴν tēn “<the>”

Not that we have authority over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for it is faith which is your support.

τῆς tēs “<the>”τῆς tēs “of the”τῇ tēa “in the”

But it was my decision for myself, not to come again to you with sorrow.

τὸ to “<the>”

For if I give you sorrow, who then will make me glad, but he who is made sad by me?

ὁ ho “the [one]”ὁ ho “the [one]”

And I said this very thing in my letter, for fear that when I came I might have sorrow from those from whom it was right for me to have joy; being certain of this, that my joy is the joy of you all.

ἡ hē “<the>”

For out of much trouble and pain of heart and much weeping I sent my letter to you; not to give you sorrow, but so that you might see how great is the love which I have to you.

τὴν tēn “the”
