G3588–ὁ–ho

this first knowing, that there shall come in the latter end of the days scoffers, according to their own desires going on,

τῶν tōn “of the”τὰς tas “<the>”

and saying, `Where is the promise of his presence? for since the fathers did fall asleep, all things so remain from the beginning of the creation;'

ἡ hē “the”τῆς tēs “of the”οἱ hoi “the”

for this is unobserved by them willingly, that the heavens were of old, and the earth out of water and through water standing together by the word of God,

τῷ tō “by the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

through which the then world, by water having been deluged, was destroyed;

ὁ ho “the”

and the present heavens and the earth, by the same word are treasured, for fire being kept to a day of judgment and destruction of the impious men.

οἱ hoi “<the>”ἡ hē “the”τῷ tō “by the”τῶν tōn “<the>”

the Lord is not slow in regard to the promise, as certain count slowness, but is long-suffering to us, not counselling any to be lost but all to pass on to reformation,

ὁ ho “the”τῆς tēs “the”

and it will come -- the day of the Lord -- as a thief in the night, in which the heavens with a rushing noise will pass away, and the elements with burning heat be dissolved, and earth and the works in it shall be burnt up.

ἡ hē “the”οἱ hoi “the”τὰ ta “the”

waiting for and hasting to the presence of the day of God, by which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements with burning heat shall melt;

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

and for new heavens and a new earth according to His promise we do wait, in which righteousness doth dwell;

τὸ to “the”

and the long-suffering of our Lord count ye salvation, according as also our beloved brother Paul -- according to the wisdom given to him -- did write to you,

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “the”τὴν tēn “the”

as also in all the epistles, speaking in them concerning these things, among which things are certain hard to be understood, which the untaught and unstable do wrest, as also the other Writings, unto their own destruction.

ταῖς tais “the”οἱ hoi “the”τὰς tas “the”τὴν tēn “the”

Ye, then, beloved, knowing before, take heed, lest, together with the error of the impious being led away, ye may fall from your own stedfastness,

τῇ tēa “by the”τῶν tōn “of the”τοῦ tou “the”

and increase ye in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; to him `is' the glory both now, and to the day of the age! Amen.

τοῦ tou “of the”ἡ hē “the”

That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we did behold, and our hands did handle, concerning the Word of the Life --

τοῖς tois “with the”αἱ hai “the”τοῦ tou “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

and the Life was manifested, and we have seen, and do testify, and declare to you the Life, the age-during, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us --

ἡ hē “the”τὴν tēn “the”τὴν tēn “<the>”τὸν ton “the”

that which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship `is' with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;

ἡ hē “the”ἡ hē “<the>”τοῦ tou “the”τοῦ tou “the”

and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.

ἡ hē “the”

And this is the message that we have heard from Him, and announce to you, that God is light, and darkness in Him is not at all;

ἡ hē “the”ὁ ho “<the>”

if we may say -- `we have fellowship with Him,' and in the darkness may walk -- we lie, and do not the truth;

τῷ tō “the”τὴν tēn “the”

and if in the light we may walk, as He is in the light -- we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son doth cleanse us from every sin;

τῷ tō “the”τῷ tō “the”τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “the”

if we may say -- `we have not sin,' ourselves we lead astray, and the truth is not in us;

ἡ hē “the”

if we may confess our sins, stedfast He is and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from every unrighteousness;

τὰς tas “the”τὰς tas “<the>”

if we may say -- `we have not sinned,' a liar we make Him, and His word is not in us.

ὁ ho “the”

My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,

τὸν ton “the”

and he -- he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world,

τῶν tōn “the”τῶν tōn “those”τοῦ tou “the”
