And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and {in} all judgment; {judgment: or, sense}

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.

For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

Pray without ceasing.

Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom {be} glory for ever and ever. Amen. {working: or, doing}

Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of {this} calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of {his} goodness, and the work of faith with power: {count: or, vouchsafe}

And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, {even} in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what {is} that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Confess {your} faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

For {God} giveth to a man that {is} good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to {him that is} good before God. This also {is} vanity and vexation of spirit. {in his...: Heb. before him}

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; {with: or, in}
