¹⁷ But well is thee, O thou realm and land, whose king is come of nobles, and whose princes eat in due season, for strength and not for lust.

¹ The spirit speaketh evidently that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, and shall give heed unto spirits of error, ² and devilish doctrine of them which speak false through hypocrisy, and have their consciences marked with a hot iron, ³ forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with giving thanks, of them which believe, and know the truth. ⁴ For all the creatures of God are good: and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: ⁵ For it is sanctified by the word of God, and prayer. ⁶ If thou shalt put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ which hast been nourished up in the words of the faith, and good doctrine, which doctrine thou hast continually followed.

¹² And the earth brought forth herb and grass sowing seed, every one in his kind, and trees bearing fruit and having their seed in themselves, every one in his kind. And God saw that it was good:

¹³ The slothful sayeth, "There is a leopard in the way, and a lion in the midst of the streets." ¹⁴ Like as the door turneth about upon the threshold, even so doth the slothful welter himself in his bed. ¹⁵ The slothful body thrusteth his hand into his bosom, and it grieveth him to put it again to his mouth. ¹⁶ The sluggard thinketh himself wiser than seven men that sit and teach.

²⁵ The voluptuousness of the slothful is his own death, for his hands will not labour. ²⁶ He coveteth and desireth all the day long; but the righteous is always giving and keepeth nothing back.

¹¹ That which goeth into the mouth, defileth not the man: but that which cometh out of the mouth, defileth the man."

³⁴ Take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be overcome with surfeiting and drunkenness, and cares of this world: and that, that day come on you unawares. ³⁵ For as a snare shall it come on all them that sit on the face of the earth. ³⁶ Watch therefore continually and pray, that ye may obtain grace to fly all this that shall come. And that ye may stand before the son of man."

⁹ Do ye not remember how that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived. For neither fornicators, neither worshippers of images, neither whoremongers, neither weaklings, neither abusers of themselves with mankind, ¹⁰ neither thieves, neither the covetous, neither drunkards, neither cursed speakers, neither extortioners shall inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And such were ye verily: but ye are washed, ye are sanctified, ye are justified by the name of the Lord Jesus: And by the spirit of our God.

⁴ But ye brethren are not in darkness, that that day should come on you as it were a thief. ⁵ Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, neither of darkness. ⁶ Therefore let us not sleep as do others: but let us watch and be sober. ⁷ For they that sleep, sleep in the night: and they that be drunken, are drunken in the night. ⁸ But let us which are of the day be sober, armed with the breast plate of faith and love, and with hope of salvation as a helmet.

¹ Him that is weak in the faith, receive unto you not in disputing and troubling his conscience. ] ² One believeth that he may eat all things. Another, which is weak, eateth herbs. ³ Let not him that eateth, despise him that eateth not. And let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth. For God hath received him. ⁴ What art thou that judgest another man's servant? Whether he stand or fall, that pertaineth unto his master. Yea, he shall stand. For God is able to make him stand. ⁵ This man putteth difference between day and day: another man counteth all days alike. See that no man waver in his own meaning. ⁶ He that observeth one day more than another, doth it for the Lord's pleasure. And he that observeth not one day more than another, doth it to please the Lord, also. He that eateth, doth it to please the lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, eateth not to please the Lord withal, and giveth God thanks. ⁷ For none of us liveth his own servant: and also neither doth any of us die his own servant. ⁸ If we live, we live to be at the Lord's will. And if we die, we die at the Lord's will. ⁹ Whether we live therefore or die, we are the Lord's. For Christ therefore died and rose again, and revived, that he might be Lord both of dead and quick. ¹⁰ But why doest thou then judge thy brother? Other why dost thou despise thy brother? We shall all be brought before the judgment seat of Christ. ¹¹ For it is written, "As truly as I live, saith the Lord, all knees shall bow to me, and all tongues shall give a knowledge to God." ¹² So shall every one of us give accounts of himself to God. ¹³ Let us not, therefore, judge one another any more. But judge this, rather: that no man put a stumbling block, or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. ¹⁴ For I know, and am full certified in the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing common of itself: but unto him that judgeth it to be common, to him it is common. ¹⁵ If thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. ¹⁶ Cause not your treasure to be evil spoken of. ¹⁷ For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy, in the holy ghost. ¹⁸ For whosoever in these things serveth Christ, pleaseth well God: and is commended of men. ¹⁹ Let us follow those things which make for peace: and things wherewith one may edify another. ²⁰ Destroy not the work of God for a little meat's sake. All things are pure: but it is evil for that man, which eateth with hurt of his conscience. ²¹ It is good neither to eat flesh, neither to drink wine, neither anything, whereby thy brother stumbleth, either falleth, or is made weak. ²² Hast thou faith? Have it with thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. ²³ For he that maketh conscience, is damned if he eat: Because he doth it not of faith. For whatsoever is not of faith, that same is sin.

⁷ Cast all your care to him: for he careth for you.

⁵ But watch thou in all things, and suffer adversity, and do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thine office unto the utmost.

¹³ Wherefore, gird up the loins of your minds, be sober, and trust perfectly on the grace that is brought unto you by the declaring of Jesus Christ; ¹⁴ as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves unto your old lusts of ignorance: ¹⁵ But as he which called you is holy, even so be ye holy in all manner of conversation, ¹⁶ because it is written, "Be ye holy, for I am holy."

⁵ For this cause left I thee in Crete: that thou shouldest perform that which was lacking and shouldest ordain elders in every city as I appointed thee. ⁶ If any be faultless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, which are not slandered of riot, neither are disobedient. ⁷ For a bishop must be faultless, as it becometh the minister of God; not stubborn, not angry, no drunkard, no fighter, not given to filthy lucre: ⁸ but harborous, one that loveth goodness, sober minded, righteous, holy, temperate, ⁹ and such as cleaveth unto the true word of doctrine, that he may be able to exhort with wholesome learning, and to improve them that say against it.

⁴ All that commit sin, committeth unrighteousness also, for sin is unrighteousness. ⁵ And ye know that he appeared to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. ⁶ All that abide in him, sin not: And all that sin hath not seen him, neither hath known him. ⁷ Little children, let no man beguile you; He that worketh righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. ⁸ He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth since the beginning. But for this cause appeared the son of God, even to destroy the works of the devil. ⁹ All that are born of God do no sin, for his seed abideth in them, and they cannot sin, because they be born of God. ¹⁰ And hereby are the sons of God known, and also the sons of the devil. All that work not righteousness, are not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother.

¹⁸ And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess: but be fulfilled with the spirit, ¹⁹ The deeds of the flesh are manifest, which are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, wantonness, ²⁰ idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, lawing, zeal, wrath, strife, sedition, sects, ²¹ envying, murder, drunkenness, gluttony, and such like. Of the which I tell you before, as I have told you in time past, that they which commit such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. ²² But the fruit of the spirit is: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, temperance. ²³ Against such there is no law. ²⁴ They that are Christ's have crucified the flesh, with the appetites and lusts. ²⁵ If we live in the spirit, let us walk in the spirit.

¹³ Let us walk honestly as it were in the daylight: not in eating and drinking: neither in chambering and wantonness: neither in strife and envying: ¹⁴ but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ. And make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts of it.

¹⁹ Either, know ye not how that your bodies are the temple of the holy ghost, which is in you, whom he have of God, and how that ye are not your own? ²⁰ For ye are dearly bought. Therefore glorify ye God in your bodies and in your spirits, for they are God's.

¹ Forasmuch as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he which suffereth in the flesh ceaseth from sin, ² that he henceforward should live as much time as remaineth in the flesh, not after the lusts of men: but after the will of God. ³ For it is sufficient for us that we have spent the time that is past of the life, after the will of the gentiles; walking in wantonness, lusts, drunkenness, in eating, drinking, and in abominable idolatry. ⁴ And it seemeth to them a strange thing that ye run not also with them unto the same excess of riot, and therefore speak they evil of you, ⁵ which shall give accounts to him that is ready to judge quick and dead. ⁶ For unto this purpose, verily, was the gospel preached unto the dead; that they should be condemned of men in the flesh, but should live before God in the spirit.

¹ But speak thou that which becometh wholesome learning: ² That the elder men be sober, honest, discreet, sound in the faith, in love and in patience. ³ And the elder women likewise that they be in such raiment as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much drinking, but teachers of honest things, ⁴ to make the young women soberminded, to love their husbands, to love their children, ⁵ to be of discreet, chaste, housewifely, good, and obedient unto their own husbands, that the word of God be not evil spoken of. ⁶ Young men likewise exhort that they be sober minded. ⁷ Above all things, show thyself an example of good works with uncorrupt doctrine, with honesty, ⁸ and with the wholesome word which cannot be rebuked, that he which withstandeth may be ashamed, having no thing in you that he may dispraise.

²⁹ And God said, "See, I have given you all herbs that sow seed which are on all the earth, and all manner trees that have fruit in them and sow seed; to be meat for you,

³ And all that moveth upon the earth, having life, shall be your meat: Even as the green herbs, so give I you all things.
