| Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. | So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober. |
| Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. | Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing. |

| See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. | See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone. |
| Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. | Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. |
| Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. | But test everything; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil. |
| Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. | He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it. |
