53:003:001 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the
word of the Lord may
have
free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:
53:003:002 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable
and wicked men:
for
all men have not faith.
53:003:003 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish
you, and keep you
from
evil.
53:003:004 And we have confidence in the Lord touching
you, that ye both
do
and will do the things which we command you.
53:003:005 And the Lord direct your hearts into the
love of God, and into
the
patient waiting for Christ.
53:003:006 Now we command you, brethren, in the name
of our Lord Jesus
Christ,
that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that
walketh
disorderly, and not after the tradition which he
received
of us.
53:003:007 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow
us: for we behaved
not
ourselves disorderly among you;
53:003:008 Neither did we eat any man’s bread
for nought; but wrought
with
labour and travail night and day, that we might not
be
chargeable
to any of you:
53:003:009 Not because we have not power, but to make
ourselves an
ensample
unto you to follow us.
53:003:010 For even when we were with you, this we
commanded you, that if
any
would not work, neither should he eat.
53:003:011 For we hear that there are some which walk
among you
disorderly,
working not at all, but are busybodies.
53:003:012 Now them that are such we command and exhort
by our Lord Jesus
Christ,
that with quietness they work, and eat their own
bread.
53:003:013 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
53:003:014 And if any man obey not our word by this
epistle, note that
man,
and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
53:003:015 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
53:003:016 Now the Lord of peace himself give you
peace always by all
means.
The Lord be with you all.
53:003:017 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand,
which is the token
in
every epistle: so I write.
53:003:018 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
Book 54 1 Timothy
54:001:001 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the
commandment of God our
Saviour,
and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
54:001:002 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith:
Grace, mercy, and
peace,
from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
54:001:003 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus,
when I went into
Macedonia,
that thou mightest charge some that they teach no
other
doctrine,
