| Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. | Let’s hold firmly to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. |
| And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. | And let’s consider how to encourage one another in love and good deeds, not abandoning our own meeting together, as is the habit of some people, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near. |

| You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. | For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. |
