ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

'Not because I am worthy,' he says, 'but on account of thy loving-kindness, deliver me from those who make war against me, set me free from those who plot against me, grant me to breathe a little from my affliction.'
For it is not simply a matter of obtaining our requests; rather, in every case we must make ourselves worthy to receive the things we ask, and contribute our own part, and so approach.
'Pray not for this people, for I will not hearken unto thee'? And why do you marvel that Jeremiah is not heard? 'Though Noah,' He says, 'though Job, though Daniel should stand, they shall not deliver their own sons and daughters.'
Knowing these things, therefore, let us not merely pray, but along with our prayers let us make ourselves worthy to receive, so that we may obtain both the present and the good things to come;
which may it be granted us all to obtain, by the grace and loving-kindness of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the might, unto the ages of ages. Amen.
