Οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ οἰκεῖ ἐν ἐμοί, τοῦτ᾿ ἔστιν ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου, ἀγαθόν· τὸ γὰρ θέλειν παράκειται μοι, τὸ δὲ κατεργάζεσθαι τὸ καλὸν οὔ·
NET2 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I want to do the good, but I cannot do it.
Counts describe the selected edition and book filter, not every textual tradition. An occurrence is a matching source word token; a verse may contain several occurrences. Pagination does not limit these totals.
Exact written-word searches retain accents and spelling. Greek lemma coverage is incomplete. OSHB includes Hebrew and Aramaic; its lemma identities retain prefixes and homograph qualifiers. For compound OSHB tokens, Strong’s lookup uses the source’s first lexical number, not every component.
A Strong’s number is a lexical index, not a definition. English words are not automatically mapped to Greek or Hebrew. Use the NET reference to read the English context; select an original word below to search its exact written form.

Οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ οἰκεῖ ἐν ἐμοί, τοῦτ᾿ ἔστιν ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου, ἀγαθόν· τὸ γὰρ θέλειν παράκειται μοι, τὸ δὲ κατεργάζεσθαι τὸ καλὸν οὔ·
NET2 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I want to do the good, but I cannot do it.
καὶ γνώμην ἐν τούτῳ δίδωμι· τοῦτο γὰρ ὑμῖν συμφέρει, οἵτινες οὐ μόνον τὸ ποιῆσαι ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ θέλειν προενήρξασθε ἀπὸ πέρυσι·
NET2 So here is my opinion on this matter: It is to your advantage, since you made a good start last year both in your giving and your desire to give,
νυνὶ δὲ καὶ τὸ ποιῆσαι ἐπιτελέσατε, ὅπως καθάπερ ἡ προθυμία τοῦ θέλειν, οὕτως καὶ τὸ ἐπιτελέσαι ἐκ τοῦ ἔχειν.
NET2 to finish what you started, so that just as you wanted to do it eagerly, you can also complete it according to your means.
θεὸς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἐνεργῶν ἐν ὑμῖν καὶ τὸ θέλειν καὶ τὸ ἐνεργεῖν ὑπὲρ τῆς εὐδοκίας.
NET2 for the one bringing forth in you both the desire and the effort—for the sake of his good pleasure—is God.
