| Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. | Don’t judge, and you won’t be judged. Don’t condemn, and you won’t be condemned. Set free, and you will be set free. |
| Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near. | Seek Yahweh while he may be found. Call on him while he is near. |

| The Lord is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you. | Yahweh is with you while you are with him; and if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will forsake you. |
| Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold. | You shall most certainly not make gods of silver or gods of gold for yourselves to be alongside me. |
| Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. | Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come. |
| Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. | Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. |
| Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. | Whether therefore you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. |

| Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? | Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? |
