Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;

Who then is Paul, and who {is} Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. {among: or, in}

I have fought a good fight, I have finished {my} course, I have kept the faith:

The fruit of the righteous {is} a tree of life; and he that winneth souls {is} wise. {winneth: Heb. taketh}

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. {wise: or, teachers}

But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

For though I be free from all {men}, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; {harmless: or, sincere} {ye shine: or, shine ye}

And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

The fruit of the righteous {is} a tree of life; and he that winneth souls {is} wise. {winneth: Heb. taketh}

Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. {wrought: or, gained, some copies read, ye have gained, but that ye, etc.}
