G3588–ὁ–ho

I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you, and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.

Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

ὁ ho “The [one]”ὁ ho “the [one]”

Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.

ὁ ho “<the>”

As it is written, "He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor. His righteousness remains forever."

τοῖς tois “to the”ἡ hē “the”τὸν ton “the”

Now may he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

ὁ ho “The [One]”τῷ tō “to him”τὸν ton “the”τὰ ta “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

you being enriched in everything to all liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God.

τῷ tō “<the>”

For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack among the saints, but abounds also through many givings of thanks to God;

ἡ hē “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τὰ ta “the”τῶν tōn “of the”τῷ tō “<the>”

seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution to them and to all;

τῆς tēs “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τὸν ton “<the>”τῇ tēa “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῆς tēs “of the”

while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.

Now thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!

τῷ tō “<the>”τῇ tēa “the”

Now I Paul, myself, entreat you by the humility and gentleness of Christ; I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being absent am of good courage toward you.

τῆς tēs “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

Yes, I beg you that I may not, when present, show courage with the confidence with which I intend to be bold against some, who consider us to be walking according to the flesh.

τὸ to “that”τῇ tēa “with the”τοὺς tous “those”

for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds,

τὰ ta “The”τῆς tēs “of the”τῷ tō “<the>”

throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;

τῆς tēs “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience will be made full.

ἡ hē “<the>”

Do you look at things only as they appear in front of your face? If anyone trusts in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again with himself, that, even as he is Christ's, so also we are Christ's.

Τὰ Ta “The [things]”

For though I should boast somewhat abundantly concerning our authority, (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for casting you down) I will not be disappointed,

τῆς tēs “the”ὁ ho “the”

that I may not seem as if I desire to terrify you by my letters.

τῶν tōn “the”

For, "His letters," they say, "are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is despised."

αἱ hai “the”ἡ hē “<the>”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “the”

Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also in deed when we are present.

ὁ ho “<the>”τῷ tō “<the>”τῷ tō “<the>”

τῶν tōn “<the>”

But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but within the boundaries with which God appointed to us, which reach even to you.

τὰ ta “the [things]”τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “<the>”

For we don't stretch ourselves too much, as though we didn't reach to you. For we came even as far as to you with the Gospel of Christ,

τῷ tō “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

not boasting beyond proper limits in other men's labors, but having hope that as your faith grows, we will be abundantly enlarged by you in our sphere of influence,

τὰ ta “the [things]”τῆς tēs “the”τὸν ton “the”
