G3588–ὁ–ho

and his affections are more abundantly towards you, calling to mind the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.

τὰ ta “the”τὴν tēn “the”

But we make known to you, brethren, the grace of God bestowed in the assemblies of Macedonia;

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τὴν tēn “which”ταῖς tais “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty has abounded to the riches of their [ergänzt: free-hearted] liberality.

ἡ hē “the”τῆς tēs “of the”ἡ hē “<the>”τὸ to “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

begging of us with much entreaty [ergänzt: to give effect to] the grace and fellowship of the service which [ergänzt: was to be rendered] to the saints.

τὴν tēn “for the”τὴν tēn “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τῆς tēs “<the>”τοὺς tous “the”

And not according as we hoped, but they gave themselves first to the Lord, and to us by God's will.

τῷ tō “to the”

So that we begged Titus that, according as he had before begun, so he would also complete as to you this grace also;

τὸ to “<the>”τὴν tēn “<the>”

but even as ye abound in every way, in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in love from you to us, that ye may abound in this grace also.

τῇ tēa “in the”τῇ tēa “<the>”

I do not speak as commanding [ergänzt: it], but through the zeal of others, and proving the genuineness of your love.

τῆς tēs “the”τὸ to “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that for your sakes he, being rich, became poor, in order that *ye* by *his* poverty might be enriched.

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τῇ tēa “<the>”

And I give [ergänzt: my] opinion in this, for this is profitable for you who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.

τὸ to “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”

But now also complete the doing of it; so that as [ergänzt: there was] the readiness to be willing, so also to complete out of what ye have.

τὸ to “the”ἡ hē “[there was] the”τοῦ tou “of the”τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “that which”

For if the readiness be there, [ergänzt: a man is] accepted according to what he may have, not according to what he has not.

ἡ hē “the”

but [ergänzt: on the principle] of equality; in the present time your abundance for their lack, that their abundance may be for your lack, so that there should be equality.

τῷ tō “the”τὸ to “<the>”τὸ to “the”τὸ to “<the>”τὸ to “the”

According as it is written, He who [ergänzt: gathered] much had no excess, and he who [ergänzt: gathered] little was nothing short.

ὁ ho “He”τὸ to “the”ὁ ho “he”τὸ to “the”

But thanks [ergänzt: be] to God, who gives the same diligent zeal for you in the heart of Titus.

τῷ tō “<the>”τῷ tō “the [One]”τὴν tēn “the”τῇ tēa “the”

For he received indeed the entreaty, but, being full of zeal, he went of his own accord to you;

τὴν tēn “<the>”

but we have sent with him the brother whose praise [ergänzt: is] in the glad tidings through all the assemblies;

τὸν ton “the”ὁ ho “<the>”τῷ tō “the”τῶν tōn “of the”

and not only [ergänzt: so], but [ergänzt: is] also chosen by the assemblies as our fellow-traveller with this grace, ministered by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and [ergänzt: a witness of] our readiness;

τῶν tōn “the”τῇ tēa “<the>”τῇ tēa “that [is]”τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”

avoiding this, that any one should blame us in this abundance [ergänzt: which is] administered by us;

τῇ tēa “<the>”τῇ tēa “which”

And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved to be of diligent zeal in many things, and now more diligently zealous through the great confidence [ergänzt: he has] as to you.

τὸν ton “the”τῇ tēa “which [is]”

Shew therefore to them, before the assemblies, the proof of your love, and of our boasting about you.

τὴν tēn “<the>”τῆς tēs “of the”τῶν tōn “of the”

For concerning the ministration which [ergänzt: is] for the saints, it is superfluous my writing to you.

τῆς tēs “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”τοὺς tous “the”τὸ to “<the>”

For I know your readiness, which I boast of as respects you to Macedonians, that Achaia is prepared since a year ago, and the zeal [ergänzt: reported] of you has stimulated the mass [ergänzt: of the brethren].

τὴν tēn “the”τὸ to “<the>”τοὺς tous “the”

But I have sent the brethren, in order that our boasting about you may not be made void in this respect, in order that, as I have said, ye may be prepared;

τοὺς tous “the”τὸ to “the”τὸ to “which [is]”τῷ tō “<the>”

lest haply, if Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, *we*, that we say not *ye*, may be put to shame in this confidence.

τῇ tēa “<the>”τῆς tēs “<the>”
