For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth. | For the fruit of the light is found in all that is good and right and true. |
Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would happen, how the Christ must suffer, and how, by the resurrection of the dead, he would be first to proclaim light both to these people and to the Gentiles. | To this day I have had help from God, and so I stand here, testifying to both small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would take place: that the Messiah must suffer, and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to our people and to the Gentiles. |

Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes. | The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes. |
For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness. | It is you who light my lamp; the Lord, my God, lights up my darkness. |
But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God. | But those who do what is true come to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been done in God. |
