Biblical Concordance
| 2 Corinthians 6:16 | What agreement can the temple of God have with idols? For we are (esmen | ἐσμεν | pres act ind 1 pl) the temple of the living God; just as God said: “I will dwell in their midst and walk among them; I will be (esomai | ἔσομαι | fut mid ind 1 sg) their God and they will be (esontai | ἔσονται | fut mid ind 3 pl) my people.” |
| 2 Corinthians 6:18 | and I will be (esomai | ἔσομαι | fut mid ind 1 sg) a father to you, and you will be (esesthe | ἔσεσθε | fut mid ind 2 pl) sons and daughters to me,” says the Lord Almighty. |
| 2 Corinthians 7:3 | I do not say this to condemn you, for I have said previously that you (este | ἐστε | pres act ind 2 pl) are (este | ἐστε | pres act ind 2 pl) in our hearts; thus we live and die together. |
| 2 Corinthians 7:11 | For see what eagerness this very thing — this sadness as God intended — has produced in you; what defense of yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what deep concern, what punishment! In everything you have proved yourselves to (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) be (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) innocent in this matter. |
| 2 Corinthians 7:15 | And his affection for you is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) even greater when he recalls the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you welcomed him. |
| 2 Corinthians 8:9 | For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) he (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) was (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich. |
| 2 Corinthians 8:22 | And we are sending along with them our brother whom we have often tested in many matters and found to (onta | ὄντα | pres act ptcp acc sg masc) be (onta | ὄντα | pres act ptcp acc sg masc) eager, and now he is all the more eager because of his great confidence in you. |
| 2 Corinthians 9:1 | Now concerning the service to the saints, there (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) no necessity for me to write to you, |
| 2 Corinthians 9:3 | But I am sending these brothers so that what we say in praise of you may not be an empty boast in this instance, that you (ēte | ἦτε | pres act subj 2 pl) may (ēte | ἦτε | pres act subj 2 pl) be (ēte | ἦτε | pres act subj 2 pl) ready just as I said you would be. |
| 2 Corinthians 9:5 | Therefore I considered it necessary to urge the brothers to go to you in advance and to arrange beforehand the generous contribution you had previously promised, so (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) that (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) it would (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) be (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) ready as a generous gift and not as something you had to do. |
| 2 Corinthians 9:12 | because the service of this ministry is (estin | ἐστίν | pres act ind 3 sg) not only providing for the needs of the saints, but is also overflowing through many thanksgivings to God. |
| 2 Corinthians 10:7 | You are looking at outward appearances. If anyone has persuaded himself that he (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) belongs (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) to Christ, he should remind himself that just as he belongs to Christ, so also do we. |
| 2 Corinthians 10:11 | Let such a person consider this, that what we are (esmen | ἐσμεν | pres act ind 1 pl) in word through letters when absent, such we also are in act when present. |
| 2 Corinthians 10:18 | For it is not the one who recommends himself who is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) approved, but the one whom the Lord recommends. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:10 | As the truth of Christ is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) in me, this boasting of mine will not be put to silence in the districts of Achaia. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:15 | So it is no great surprise if his servants, too, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will be (estai | ἔσται | fut mid ind 3 sg) according to their works. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:16 | Again I say, let no one think me foolish. But even if you do, then at least accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:19 | For gladly you put up with fools, since (ontes | ὄντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) you (ontes | ὄντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) are (ontes | ὄντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) so wise! |
| 2 Corinthians 11:22 | Are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) they (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) Hebrews? So am I. Are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) they (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) Israelites? So am I. Are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) they (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) descendants of Abraham? So am I. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:23 | Are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) they (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) servants of Christ? — I am talking like a madman! — I am even more so: in far more labors, in prison more often, in beatings more severe, facing death again and again. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:31 | The God and Father of our Lord Jesus, he who (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) is (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:6 | For even if I should choose to boast, I (esomai | ἔσομαι | fut mid ind 1 sg) would (esomai | ἔσομαι | fut mid ind 1 sg) not be (esomai | ἔσομαι | fut mid ind 1 sg) foolish, because I would be telling the truth. But I refrain from this, so that no one will give credit to me beyond what he sees in me or he hears from me, |
| 2 Corinthians 12:10 | For this reason I am content with weaknesses, with insults, with hardships, with persecutions and difficulties for the sake of Christ; for whenever I am weak, then I (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) strong. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:11 | I am acting like a fool, but you drove me to it. I ought to be commended by you, for in no way am I inferior to the “super-apostles” — even though I (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) nothing. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:13 | For in what way were (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this injustice! |
| 2 Corinthians 12:16 | But be that as it may (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg), I did not burden you; yet being crafty, I took you in by deceit! |
| 2 Corinthians 13:5 | Examine yourselves to see if you are (este | ἐστέ | pres act ind 2 pl) in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? — unless, of course, you fail the test! |
| 2 Corinthians 13:6 | And I hope that you will find out that we do (esmen | ἐσμέν | pres act ind 1 pl) not fail the test! (esmen | ἐσμέν | pres act ind 1 pl) |
| 2 Corinthians 13:7 | Now we pray to God that you may not do anything wrong, not that we would appear as having passed the test, but that you may do what is right even though we may (ōmen | ὦμεν | pres act subj 1 pl) appear (ōmen | ὦμεν | pres act subj 1 pl) as having failed. |
| 2 Corinthians 13:9 | For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are (ēte | ἦτε | pres act subj 2 pl) strong. And this is what we pray for, your Christian maturity. |
| 2 Corinthians 13:11 | Finally, brothers, rejoice, strive for maturity, take courage, be like-minded, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be (estai | ἔσται | fut mid ind 3 sg) with you. |
| Galatians 1:7 | not that there is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) another gospel, but there (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) some who are trying to confuse you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. |
| Galatians 1:8 | But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach a gospel at odds with the one we already preached to you, let (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) him (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) be (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) accursed. |
| Galatians 1:9 | As we have said before, and now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel at odds with the one you have already received, let (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) him (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) be (estō | ἔστω | pres act imperative 3 sg) accursed. |
| Galatians 1:10 | For am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I (ēmēn | ἤμην | imperf mid ind 1 sg) would not be (ēmēn | ἤμην | imperf mid ind 1 sg) a servant of Christ. |
| Galatians 1:11 | I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel preached by me is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not of human origin. |
| Galatians 1:22 | But I was (ēmēn | ἤμην | imperf mid ind 1 sg) still personally unknown to the churches of Judea that are in Christ. |
| Galatians 1:23 | They (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) only kept (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) hearing, “The one who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.” |
| Galatians 2:3 | Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, though (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) he (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) was (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) a Greek. |
| Galatians 2:6 | But from those who were supposed to be (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) acknowledged leaders (what they were (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality) — those leaders contributed nothing to me. |
| Galatians 2:9 | and when James and Cephas and John, who were (einai | εἶναι | pres act inf ) acknowledged pillars, recognized the grace that had been given to me, they gave to Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, agreeing that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. |
| Galatians 2:11 | But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) stood (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) condemned. |
| Galatians 3:3 | Are (este | ἐστε | pres act ind 2 pl) you (este | ἐστε | pres act ind 2 pl) so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, would you now attain your goal by the flesh? |
| Galatians 3:7 | Know then that it is those of faith who are (eisin | εἰσιν | pres act ind 3 pl) the sons of Abraham. |
| Galatians 3:10 | For all who (eisin | εἰσίν | pres act ind 3 pl) rely (eisin | εἰσίν | pres act ind 3 pl) on works of the law are (eisin | εἰσίν | pres act ind 3 pl) under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things written in the book of the law, to do them.” |
| Galatians 3:12 | However, the law is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not of faith; on the contrary, it teaches that “the one who does them will live by them.” |
| Galatians 3:16 | Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his descendant. Scripture does not say, “and to descendants,” referring to many, but “and to your descendant,” referring to one, who is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) Christ. |
| Galatians 3:20 | Now a mediator is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not for one party only, but God is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) one. |
| Galatians 3:21 | Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would indeed be (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) by the law. |
| Galatians 3:25 | But now that faith has come, we (esmen | ἐσμεν | pres act ind 1 pl) are (esmen | ἐσμεν | pres act ind 1 pl) no longer under a guardian. |
