Λέγω δὲ τοῖς ἀγάμοις καὶ ταῖς χήραις, καλὸν αὐτοῖς ἐὰν μείνωσιν ὡς καγώ·
NET2 To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am.
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.

Λέγω δὲ τοῖς ἀγάμοις καὶ ταῖς χήραις, καλὸν αὐτοῖς ἐὰν μείνωσιν ὡς καγώ·
NET2 To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am.
Ἐὰν δὲ ἔλθῃ Τιμόθεος, βλέπετε, ἵνα ἀφόβως γένηται πρὸς ὑμᾶς· τὸ γὰρ ἔργον κυρίου ἐργάζεται ὡς |καγώ|·
NET2 Now if Timothy comes, see that he has nothing to fear among you, for he is doing the Lord’s work, as I am too.
ᾧ δέ τι χαρίζεσθε, καγώ· καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ ὃ κεχάρισμαι (εἴ τι κεχάρισμαι), δι᾿ ὑμᾶς ἐν προσώπῳ Χριστοῦ,
NET2 If you forgive anyone for anything, I also forgive him—for indeed what I have forgiven (if I have forgiven anything) I did so for you in the presence of Christ,
(κατὰ ἀτιμίαν λέγω, ὡς ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠσθενήκαμεν.) ἐν ᾧ δ᾿ ἄν τις τολμᾷ (ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ λέγω), τολμῶ καγώ.
NET2 (To my disgrace I must say that we were too weak for that!) But whatever anyone else dares to boast about (I am speaking foolishly), I also dare to boast about the same thing.
Ἑβραῖοι εἰσιν; καγώ. Ἰσραηλῖται εἰσιν; καγώ. σπέρμα Ἀβραάμ εἰσιν; καγώ.
NET2 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.
Ἀλλ᾿ ἐρεῖ τις· σὺ πίστιν ἔχεις, καγὼ ἔργα ἔχω· δεῖξον μοι τὴν πίστιν σου χωρὶς τῶν ἔργων, καγώ σοι δείξω ἐκ τῶν ἔργων μου τὴν πίστιν.
NET2 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith without works and I will show you faith by my works.
ὅτι ἐτήρησας τὸν λόγον τῆς ὑπομονῆς μου, καγώ σε τηρήσω ἐκ τῆς ὥρας τοῦ πειρασμοῦ τῆς μελλούσης ἔρχεσθαι ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκουμένης ὅλης πειράσαι τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
NET2 Because you have kept my admonition to endure steadfastly, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come on the whole world to test those who live on the earth.
