| Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. | Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. |
| Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. | The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. |
|
| Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. | May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you. |
| He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise. | John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” |
| Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth. | No one should seek their own good, but the good of others. |
| Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord. | Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. |
| Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. | Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. |
| Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. | Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. |
| Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. | Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. |
| Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. | Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. |
| Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. | Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. |
| Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. | Each of us should please our neighbors for their good, to build them up. |
| Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day. | My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor all day long. |
| But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. | But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream! |
| Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. | Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me. |
| But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant. | Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave. |
| Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth. | Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. |
| With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. | I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. |
| Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. | Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts. Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon. |
| In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. | In you, Lord, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness. |
| Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. | Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. |
| Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. | My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. |
| The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us. | May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us. |
| But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. | All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one. |
| Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil. | “In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. |
