| Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin. | Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin. |
| But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. | The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. |
|
| And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. | Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. |
