- Each of us must consider his neighbor’s good for the purpose of building him up.
- For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that by perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we may continue to have hope.
- May the God of perseverance and encouragement grant that you may live in harmony with one another, following in the example of Jesus Christ.
- Therefore, accept one another for the glory of God, just as Christ has accepted you.
- May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may grow rich in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
- In that way, I can come to you in joy, if God so wills, and be refreshed together with you.
He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken.
