¹² Whom I sent back: and thou him, that is, my bowels, receive again: ¹³ Whom I was wishing to retain to myself, that for thee he might serve me in the bonds of the good news: ¹⁴ But without thy judgment I would do nothing; that good might not be as according to necessity, but according to free will. ¹⁵ For perhaps therefore he was separated for a time, that thou mightest receive him forever; ¹⁶ No more as a servant, but above a servant, a dearly beloved brother, especially to me, and how much rather to thee, also in the flesh, and in the Lord? ¹⁷ If therefore thou hold me a participator, receive him in addition as me. ¹⁸ And if he injured thee any, or is indebted, charge this to me. ¹⁹ I Paul wrote with my hand, I will pay back: that I say not to thee, for thou owest thyself to me also in addition. ²⁰ Yea, brother, may I be profited by thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

²⁰ Yea, brother, may I be profited by thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. ²¹ Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote to thee, knowing that thou wilt do above what I say to thee. ²² And at the same time also prepare for me a reception as a guest: for I hope that by your prayers I shall be given as a favor to you. ²³ Epaphras greets thee, my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus; ²⁴ Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my co-workers.

²⁴ Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my co-workers. ²⁵ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with your spirit. Amen.

¹ Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, observe the sent and Chief Priest of our assent, Christ Jesus;

¹⁴ For we have been partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our foundation firm to the end;

¹⁰ For God is not unjust to forget your work and fatigue of love, which ye showed to his name, having served to the holy ones, and serving.

¹⁷ Believe them guiding you, and yield: (for they watch vigilantly for your souls, as going to return the word.) that with joy they might do this, and not lamenting: for this unprofitable for you.

¹⁹ And I beseech the more abundantly to do this, that I might the more speedily be restored to you.

²³ Ye know the brother Timothy having been set at liberty; with whom, if he come more speedily, I shall see you.

⁵ Hear, my dearly beloved brethren, Has not God chosen the beggars of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to them loving him?

¹⁴ And what profit, my brethren, if any say he has faith, and should not have works? can faith save him?

¹⁷ So also faith, if it have not works, is dead by itself.

¹⁶ Acknowledge your faults to one another, and pray for one another, that ye might be healed. The prayer of the just, being energetic, is very powerful.

¹⁹ Brethren, if any among you be led astray from the truth, and any should turn him back; ²⁰ Let him know, that he having turned the sinful from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.

⁵ Who by the power of God watching ourselves by faith to salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. ⁶ By which ye are transported with joy, now for a little, (if it is necessary,) having grieved in various temptations: ⁷ That the proof of your faith, much more precious than perishing gold, and being tried by fire, might be found to praise and honour and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ: ⁸ Whom not having seen, ye love; in whom, now not seeing, but believing, ye are transported with joy unalterable, and highly valued:

²² Having purified your souls in the hearing of the truth by the Spirit to unfeigned brotherly love, out of pure hearts love ye one another cordially: ²³ Begotten again, not of corrupted seed, but uncorrupted, by the word of God, living and remaining forever.

¹⁰ Who once not a people, and now the people of God: they not commiserated, and now commiserated. ¹¹ Dearly beloved, I beseech as sojourners and strangers, to keep off from fleshly passions, which war against the soul; ¹² Having your turning back good in the nations: that, in what they speak against you as doing evil, from good works, they having beheld, might praise God in the day of inspection.

¹ Likewise, wives being subject to their own husbands; that also, if any believe not the word, by the turning back of wives might be gained without the word;

¹⁶ Having a good consciousness; that, in what they speak evil against you, as doing evil, they threatening your good turning round in Christ should be ashamed.

¹ The elders among you I beseech, a fellow elder, and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a participator of the glory which is about to be revealed: ² Tend the flock of God which among you, inspecting, not by force, but voluntarily; neither occupied in sordid gain, but of a ready will; ³ Neither as ruling over the portions obtained by lot, but being types of the flock.

⁸ For these being to you, and abounding, they establish you not without effort, neither unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

³ What we have seen and heard we announce to you, that ye also might have communion with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

¹⁷ And whoever has the life of the world, and sees his brother having need, and should shut up his bowels from him, how remains the love of God in him?

²³ And this is his command, That we believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us command.

¹ Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God: and every one loving him having begotten, loves him also begotten of him.

¹ Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God: and every one loving him having begotten, loves him also begotten of him. ² In this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commands.

⁴ I was greatly rejoiced that I found of thy children walking about in the truth, as we received a command from the Father.

¹² Having many things to write to you, I was not willing by paper and ink: but I hope to come to you, and to speak mouth to month, that our joy might be filled up.

³ For I was greatly rejoiced, the brethren coming and testifying to thy truth, as thou walkest about in the truth. ⁴ I have no joy greater than these that I hear my children walking in truth.

⁴ I have no joy greater than these that I hear my children walking in truth. ⁵ Dearly beloved, thou doest faithfully whatever thou dost work for the brethren, and for strangers; ⁶ Who testified to thy love before the church: thou shalt do well, having sent them forward worthily of God.

⁸ Therefore ought we to receive such, that we might be workers together in the truth.

¹⁴ { And I hope presently to see thee, and we will speak mouth to mouth. Peace to thee. The friends greet thee. Greet the friends by name.}
