Gyula -
I am pleased that you got the meaning you were looking for.

Now as I see the meaning of this verse is something like this: If you search the Lord, you will find Him, but if you forsake Him, He will cast off/reject you during that time.

It is good that you have e-Sword as it is a very useful tool.
Do you also have a hardback Bible with a middle column with cross references to other Scriptures; as this is also a useful tool for finding two or three Scriptural Witnesses,
Kind Regards.

George,
I have a New Testament translation which is quite close to the CLV translation, and it has references to other Scriptures at the end of each chapter, so it's pretty good. Unfortunately there is no translation for the Old Testament in Hungarian which is similar to the CLV, basically what I have is similar to the King James Bible.
Best regards, Gyula

If I were translating it, that's the way I'd put it.

We know that not one of us can do 'good' at any time under this current Age of Grace or all the previous Ages, as 'good' only comes from Our Heavenly Father.

My "disagreement" stems from a less theological understanding of "good". We not only can do good, we are told to do good. We're told that even the heathen can do good. And we're told that good works are judged, and in a way not coinciding with evil works--the former are refined, the latter burned up.
But I see Cheekie put good in quotations, so I doubt he is talking about it like I am. No need for long discussion over words.
