| Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. | Let us remain firm in the confession of our hope without wavering, for the one who made the promise is trustworthy. |
| 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 us consider how to spur one another to love and good works. Do not neglect to attend your assemblies, as some do, but rather encourage one another, especially since you can see the Day approaching. |
| You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. | You need to be steadfast if you want to do the will of God and receive what he has promised. |
