Godbey(i)
1 Finally therefore, brethren, we pray you and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how it behooves you to walk about and to please God, as you do indeed walk about, in order that you may abound more and more.
2 For you know what promises we gave unto you through our Lord Jesus.
3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification, that you abstain from fornication;
4 that each one of you know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor,
5 not in the passion of lust, as indeed the Gentiles who do not know God;
6 that one should overreach and defraud his brother in a business transaction: because the Lord is the avenger concerning these things, as we indeed before told you and witnessed to you.
7 For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in sanctification.
8 Therefore the one rejecting (sanctification), does not reject man, but God, who indeed gives to you his Holy Spirit.
