12ThereforeG1352, 1I will alwaysG104 be readyG3195 to remindG5279 you of theseG3778 thingsG3778, evenG2539 thoughG2539 you already knowG3609 them, and have been establishedG4741 in 2the truthG225 which is presentG3918 with you. 13I considerG2233 it 3rightG1342, as longG3745 as I amG1510 in 4thisG3778 earthly dwellingG4638, to 5stirG1326 you up by wayG1722 of reminderG5280, 14knowingG3609 that 6the layingG595 asideG595 of my earthly dwellingG4638 is imminentG5031, 7as alsoG2532 our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 has madeG1213 clearG1213 to me. 15And I will alsoG2532 be diligentG4704 that at anyG1539 timeG1539 afterG3326 my 8departureG1841 you will be ableG2192 to callG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to mindG3420.
16For we did not followG1811 cleverlyG4679 devisedG4679 9talesG3454 when we madeG1107 knownG1107 to you the 10powerG1411 and comingG3952 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, but we were 11eyewitnessesG2030 of His majestyG3168. 17For when He receivedG2983 honorG5092 and gloryG1391 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962, suchG5107 an 1213utteranceG5456 as this was 14madeG5342 to Him by the 15MajesticG3169 GloryG1391, “ThisG3778 is My belovedG27 SonG5207 with whomG3739 I amG2106 well-pleasedG2106”-- 18and we ourselvesG2249 heardG191 thisG3778 16utteranceG5456 madeG5342 from heavenG3772 when we were with Him on the 17holyG40 mountainG3735.
