Remind the people to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,
To speak evil of no man, to be peaceable and gentle, showing all meekness unto all men.
For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaving in various concupiscence and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
But after that the kindness and love of Êlôhîym our Sotír toward man became visible,
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of rebirth, and renewing of the rûach Qôdesh;
Which he shed on us abundantly through Yahusha Mâshı̂yach our Saviour;
That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
This is a faithful saying, and these things I want that you affirm constantly, that they which have believed in Êlôhîym might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and controversies about the law; for they are useless and vain.
A man that is a heretic after the first and second admonition reject;
Knowing that he that is such is perverted, and sinned, being condemned of himself.
When I shall send Artemas unto you, or Tychikós, be diligent to come unto me to Nikópolis: for I have determined there to stay over.
Bring Zinás the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.
And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they are not unfruitful.
All that are with me salute you. Greet them that love us in the faith. Love be with you all. Âmên.
