-
but according as He who did call you [is] holy, ye also, become holy in all behaviour,
-
because all flesh [is] as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass; wither did the grass, and the flower of it fell away,
-
Having put aside, then, all evil, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all evil speakings,
-
to all give ye honour; the brotherhood love ye; God fear ye; the king honour ye.
-
The domestics! be subjecting yourselves in all fear to the masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the cross;
-
And finally, being all of one mind, having fellow-feeling, loving as brethren, compassionate, courteous,
-
And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,
-
and, before all things, to one another having the earnest love, because the love shall cover a multitude of sins;
-
if any one doth speak -- `as oracles of God;' if any one doth minister -- `as of the ability which God doth supply;' that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power -- to the ages of the ages. Amen.
-
In like manner, ye younger, be subject to elders, and all to one another subjecting yourselves; with humble-mindedness clothe yourselves, because God the proud doth resist, but to the humble He doth give grace;
-
all your care having cast upon Him, because He careth for you.
-
And the God of all grace, who did call you to His age-during glory in Christ Jesus, having suffered a little, Himself make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle [you];
-
Salute ye one another in a kiss of love; peace to you all who [are] in Christ Jesus! Amen.
