lest any one be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food did sell his birthright,

ὡς hōs “as”

and this -- `Yet once' -- doth make evident the removal of the things shaken, as of things having been made, that the things not shaken may remain;

ὡς hōs “as”

be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;

ὡς hōs “as”ὡς hōs “as”

and the rich in his becoming low, because as a flower of grass he shall pass away;

ὡς hōs “like”

If, indeed, royal law ye complete, according to the Writing, `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself,' -- ye do well;

ὡς hōs “as”

and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors;

ὡς hōs “as”

so speak ye and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged,

ὡς hōs “as”

your gold and silver have rotted, and the rust of them for a testimony shall be to you, and shall eat your flesh as fire. Ye made treasure in the last days!

ὡς hōs “like”

ye did live in luxury upon the earth, and were wanton; ye did nourish your hearts, as in a day of slaughter;

ὡς hōs “as”

as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires in your ignorance,

ὡς hōs “as”

but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and unspotted -- Christ's --

ὡς hōs “as”

whether to governors, as to those sent through him, for punishment, indeed, of evil-doers, and a praise of those doing good;

ὡς hōs “as”

as free, and not having the freedom as the cloak of the evil, but as servants of God;

for ye were as sheep going astray, but ye turned back now to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.

ὡς hōs “like”

as Sarah was obedient to Abraham, calling him `sir,' of whom ye did become daughters, doing good, and not fearing any terror.

ὡς hōs “as”
