| So we must not fall asleep as the others do, but we must stay alert and sober. | Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. |
| Therefore, encourage one another and strengthen one another, as indeed you are doing. | Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. |
|
| Make sure that no one pays back evil for evil. Rather, always aim to achieve what is best for each other and for everyone. | See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. |
| Rejoice always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. | Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. |
| Test everything, and hold fast to what is good. Avoid every form of evil. | Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. |
| The one who calls you is faithful, and he will accomplish this. | Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. |
