For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing. | For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. |
A generous person will be prosperous, And one who gives others plenty of water will himself be given plenty. | The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. |

Incline my heart to Your testimonies, And not to dishonest gain. | Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness. |
I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. | I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. |
But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of God’s grace. | But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. |
