Greek/English Interlinear with Strong’s Numbers
Col. 1 - Greek/English/Strong’s Interlinear


King James Version

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
New King James Version

if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.
New American Standard Bible

if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made (became) a minister.
New International Version

if you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
The Amplified Bible

[And this He will do] provided that you continue to stay with and in the faith [in Christ], well-grounded and settled and steadfast, not shifting or moving away from the hope [which rests on and is inspired by] the glad tidings (the Gospel), which you heard and which has been preached [as being designed for and offered without restrictions] to every person under heaven, and of which [Gospel] I, Paul, became a minister.
Wuest’s Expanded Translation

assuming indeed that you are adhering to the Faith, having been placed upon a foundation with the present result that you are on that foundation, firmly established, and that you are not being shifted away from your hope held out by the good news which you heard, that good news which was proclaimed in all creation which is under heaven, of which, I, Paul, became one who ministers.
Phillips’ Modern English

This reconciliation assumes that you maintain a firm position in the faith, and do not allow your selves to be shifted away from the hope of the gospel, which you have heard, and which, indeed, has been proclaimed to the whole created world under heaven. I, Paul, have become a minister of this same gospel.
Williams’ Language of the People

if indeed you continue well grounded and firm in faith and never shift from the hope inspired by the good news you heard, which has been preached all over the world, and of which I, Paul, have been made a minister.

If 1489 ye continue 1961 in the 3588 faith 4102 grounded 2311 and 2532 settled, 1476 and 2532 be not 3361 moved away 3334 from 575 the 3588 hope 1680 of the 3588 gospel, 2098 which 3739 ye have heard, 191 and which was preached 2784 to 1722 every 3956 creature 2937 which 3588 is under 5259 heaven; 3772 whereof 3739 I 1473 Paul 3972 am made 1096 a minister; 1249
