G3309–μεριμνάω–merimnaō

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

μεριμνᾶτε merimnate “do be anxious about”

Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

μεριμνῶν merimnōn “being anxious”

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

μεριμνᾶτε; merimnate “are you anxious?”

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

μεριμνήσητε merimnēsēte “shall you be anxious”

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

μεριμνήσητε merimnēsēte “shall you be anxious”μεριμνήσει merimnēsei “will be anxious about”

But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

μεριμνήσητε merimnēsēte “may be anxious”

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:

μεριμνᾷς merimnas “you are anxious”

And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:

μεριμνήσητε merimnēsēte “may be anxious”

And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.

μεριμνᾶτε merimnate “do be anxious”

And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?

μεριμνῶν merimnōn “being anxious”

If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?

μεριμνᾶτε; merimnate “are you anxious?”

But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

μεριμνᾷ merimna “cares for”

But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.

μεριμνᾷ merimna “he cares for”

There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

μεριμνᾷ merimna “cares for”μεριμνᾷ merimna “she cares for”

That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

μεριμνῶσιν merimnōsin “may have concern”

For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.

μεριμνήσει· merimnēsei “will care for;”

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

μεριμνᾶτε, merimnate “do worry about,”
