G3588–ὁ–ho

But we, brethren, having been bereaved of you and separated for a little moment in person, not in heart, have used more abundant diligence to see your face with much desire;

τὸ to “the”

wherefore we have desired to come to you, even I Paul, both once and twice, and Satan has hindered us.

ὁ ho “<the>”

For what [supplied: is] our hope, or joy, or crown of boasting? [supplied: are] not *ye* also before our Lord Jesus at his coming?

τοῦ tou “the”τῇ tēa “<the>”

for ye are our glory and joy.

ἡ hē “the”ἡ hē “<the>”

and sent Timotheus, our brother and fellow-workman under God in the glad tidings of Christ, to confirm you and encourage [supplied: you] concerning your faith,

τὸν ton “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῷ tō “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”τῆς tēs “the”

that no one might be moved by these afflictions. (For yourselves know that we are set for this;

τὸ to “<the>”ταῖς tais “<the>”

For this reason *I* also, no longer able to refrain myself, sent to know your faith, lest perhaps the tempter had tempted you and our labour should be come to nothing.

τὸ to “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”ὁ ho “the [one]”ὁ ho “the”

But Timotheus having just come to us from you, and brought to us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have always good remembrance of us, desiring much to see us, even as we also you;

τὴν tēn “of the”τὴν tēn “the”

for this reason we have been comforted in you, brethren, in all our distress and tribulation, through your faith,

τῇ tēa “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy wherewith we rejoice on account of you before our God,

τῷ tō “<the>”τῇ tēa “the”τοῦ tou “the”

night and day beseeching exceedingly to the end that we may see your face, and perfect what is lacking in your faith?

τὸ to “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”τὰ ta “the [things]”τῆς tēs “in the”

But our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.

ὁ ho “the”ὁ ho “the”τὴν tēn “the”

But you, may the Lord make to exceed and abound in love toward one another, and toward all, even as we also towards you,

ὁ ho “the”τῇ tēa “<the>”

in order to the confirming of your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

τὸ to “<the>”τὰς tas “<the>”τοῦ tou “the”τῇ tēa “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τῶν tōn “the”

For the rest, then, brethren, we beg you and exhort you in [supplied: the] Lord Jesus, even as ye have received from us how ye ought to walk and please God, even as ye also do walk, that ye would abound still more.

τὸ to “<the>”

For ye know what charges we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

τοῦ tou “the”

For this is [supplied: the] will of God, [supplied: even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication;

τοῦ tou “<the>”ὁ ho “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour,

τὸ to “the”

(not in passionate desire, even as the nations who know not God,)

τὰ ta “the”τὰ ta “<the>”τὸν ton “<the>”

not overstepping the rights of and wronging his brother in the matter, because the Lord [supplied: is] the avenger of all these things, even as we also told you before, and have fully testified.

τὸ to “<the>”τῷ tō “the”τὸν ton “the”ὁ ho “the”

For God has not called us to uncleanness, but in sanctification.

ὁ ho “<the>”

He therefore that [supplied: in this] disregards [supplied: his brother], disregards, not man, but God, who has given also his Holy Spirit to you.

ὁ ho “the [one]”τὸν ton “<the>”τὸν ton “the [One]”τὸ to “the”τὸ to “<the>”

Now concerning brotherly love ye have no need that we should write to you, for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

τῆς tēs “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”

For also ye do this towards all the brethren in the whole of Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, to abound still more,

τοὺς tous “the”τοὺς tous “the [ones]”τῇ tēa “<the>”

and to seek earnestly to be quiet and mind your own affairs, and work with your [supplied: own] hands, even as we charged you,

τὰ ta “<the>”ταῖς tais “the”
