G5530–χράω–chraō

on the next `day' also we touched at Sidon, and Julius, courteously treating Paul, did permit `him', having gone on unto friends, to receive `their' care.

χρησάμενος chrēsamenos “was treating”

which having taken up, they were using helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand, having let down the mast -- so were borne on.

ἐχρῶντο echrōnto “they were using”

a servant -- wast thou called? be not anxious; but if also thou art able to become free -- use `it' rather;

χρῆσαι. chrēsai “do take advantage.”

and those using this world, as not using `it' up; for passing away is the fashion of this world.

χρώμενοι chrōmenoi “using”

if others do partake of the authority over you -- not we more? but we did not use this authority, but all things we bear, that we may give no hindrance to the good news of the Christ.

ἐχρησάμεθα echrēsametha “we did use”

And I have used none of these things; neither did I write these things that it may be so done in my case, for `it is' good for me rather to die, than that any one may make my glorying void;

κέχρημαι kechrēmai “have used”

This, therefore, counselling, did I then use the lightness; or the things that I counsel, according to the flesh do I counsel, that it may be with me Yes, yes, and No, no?

ἐχρησάμην, echrēsamēn “did I use?”

χρώμεθα, chrōmetha “we use,”

because of this, these things -- being absent -- I write, that being present, I may not treat `any' sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down.

χρήσωμαι chrēsōmai “I may treat [you]”

and we have known that the law `is' good, if any one may use it lawfully;

χρῆται, chrētai “shall use,”

no longer be drinking water, but a little wine be using, because of thy stomach and of thine often infirmities;

χρῶ chrō “do use”
