²⁰ Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:

¹⁶ Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

²⁴ Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

¹² Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

¹⁷ And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:

¹² Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

¹² Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

¹⁷ Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

⁷ Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

¹⁸ Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
