| Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. | The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. |
| He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. | Those who walk blamelessly, and do what is right, and speak the truth from their heart; who do not slander with their tongue, and do no evil to their friends, nor take up a reproach against their neighbors. |

| Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil. | Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful. |
| Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. | Surely the Lord God does nothing, without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets. |
| Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. | Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law. |
| And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. | And the world and its desire are passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever. |

| Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? | Woe to you who strive with your Maker, earthen vessels with the potter! Does the clay say to the one who fashions it, “What are you making”? or “Your work has no handles”? |

| Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. | It does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. |
| The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works. | The Lord is just in all his ways, and kind in all his doings. |
| For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth. | For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. |
| For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? | For what will it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life? |
| I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. | I lift up my eyes to the hills— from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. |
| God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? | God is not a human being, that he should lie, or a mortal, that he should change his mind. Has he promised, and will he not do it? Has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it? |
| For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. | For if the eagerness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has—not according to what one does not have. |
| Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. | So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead. |
