² upon hope of life age-during, which God, who doth not lie, did promise before times of ages,

¹ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to a promise of life that `is' in Christ Jesus,

⁷ that having been declared righteous by His grace, heirs we may become according to the hope of life age-during.

⁹ who did save us, and did call with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, that was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages,

¹³ waiting for the blessed hope and manifestation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ,

²¹ yourselves in the love of God keep ye, waiting for the kindness of our Lord Jesus Christ -- to life age-during;

¹¹ and this is the testimony, that life age-during did God give to us, and this -- the life -- is in His Son;

¹² he who is having the Son, hath the life; he who is not having the Son of God -- the life he hath not.

¹³ These things I did write to you who are believing in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that life ye have age-during, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.

²⁵ and this is the promise that He did promise us -- the life the age-during.

¹⁷ in which God, more abundantly willing to shew to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, did interpose by an oath,

¹⁸ that through two immutable things, in which `it is' impossible for God to lie, a strong comfort we may have who did flee for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before `us',

¹³ if we are not stedfast, he remaineth stedfast; to deny himself he is not able.

¹⁰ because of this all things do I endure, because of the choice ones, that they also salvation may obtain that `is' in Christ Jesus, with glory age-during.

¹⁹ God `is' not a man -- and lieth, And a son of man -- and repenteth! Hath He said -- and doth He not do `it'? And spoken -- and doth He not confirm it?

¹⁵ be diligent to present thyself approved to God -- a workman irreproachable, rightly dividing the word of the truth;

³ Blessed `is' the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to the abundance of His kindness did beget us again to a living hope, through the rising again of Jesus Christ out of the dead,

⁴ to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you,

² beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;

³ and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.

²⁰ and we have known that the Son of God is come, and hath given us a mind, that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this one is the true God and the life age-during!

¹² be striving the good strife of the faith, be laying hold on the life age-during, to which also thou wast called, and didst profess the right profession before many witnesses.

¹⁹ treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life age-during.

⁷ concerning all things thyself showing a pattern of good works; in the teaching uncorruptedness, gravity, incorruptibility,

²⁰ foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, and manifested in the last times because of you,

²¹ who through him do believe in God, who did raise out of the dead, and glory to him did give, so that your faith and hope may be in God.

²² Your souls having purified in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to brotherly love unfeigned, out of a pure heart one another love ye earnestly,

²³ being begotten again, not out of seed corruptible, but incorruptible, through a word of God -- living and remaining -- to the age;

⁸ And bow before it shall all who are dwelling upon the land, whose names have not been written in the scroll of the life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world;

⁸ `The beast that thou didst see: it was, and it is not; and it is about to come up out of the abyss, and to go away to destruction, and wonder shall those dwelling upon the earth, whose names have not been written upon the scroll of the life from the foundation of the world, beholding the beast that was, and is not, although it is.

³⁰ who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during;

⁸ and we, being of the day -- let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet -- a hope of salvation,

¹⁵ who did both put to death the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and did persecute us, and God they are not pleasing, and to all men `are' contrary,

²⁸ and life age-during I give to them, and they shall not perish -- to the age, and no one shall pluck them out of my hand;

⁶⁸ Simon Peter, therefore, answered him, `Sir, unto whom shall we go? thou hast sayings of life age-during;

⁵⁴ he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day;

³⁹ `Ye search the Writings, because ye think in them to have life age-during, and these are they that are testifying concerning me;

¹⁵ that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during,

¹⁶ for God did so love the world, that His Son -- the only begotten -- He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.

¹⁷ And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, `Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?'

⁴⁶ And these shall go away to punishment age-during, but the righteous to life age-during.'

³⁴ `Then shall the king say to those on his right hand, Come ye, the blessed of my Father, inherit the reign that hath been prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

²³ From the age I was anointed, from the first, From former states of the earth.

²⁴ In there being no depths, I was brought forth, In there being no fountains heavy `with' waters,

²⁵ Before mountains were sunk, Before heights, I was brought forth.

²⁶ While He had not made the earth, and out-places, And the top of the dusts of the world.

²⁷ In His preparing the heavens I `am' there, In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep,

²⁸ In His strengthening clouds above, In His making strong fountains of the deep,

²⁹ In His setting for the sea its limit, And the waters transgress not His command, In His decreeing the foundations of earth,

³⁰ Then I am near Him, a workman, And I am a delight -- day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times,

³¹ Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, And my delights `are' with the sons of men.

² according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that -- all that Thou hast given to him -- he may give to them life age-during;

²⁴ `Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

²⁷ to whom God did will to make known what `is' the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations -- which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,

²⁵ And to Him who is able to establish you, according to my good news, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the secret, in the times of the ages having been kept silent,

²³ for the wages of the sin `is' death, and the gift of God `is' life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.

²¹ that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

⁴ and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;

² through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.

⁷ to those, indeed, who in continuance of a good work, do seek glory, and honour, and incorruptibility -- life age-during;

² which He announced before through His prophets in holy writings --

¹⁸ `Known from the ages to God are all His works;

²⁹ and also, the Pre-eminence of Israel doth not lie nor repent, for He `is' not a man to be penitent.'
