- Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.
- Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
- Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
- And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.
And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
