if indeed you remain in the faith, established and steadfast and not shifted away from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.

And so, he is like a tree planted by streams of water that gives its fruit in its season; its leaf also does not wither. Therefore all that he does prospers.

Planted in the house of Yahweh, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

to {give} for those in mourning in Zion, to give them a head wrap instead of ashes, [the] oil of joy instead of mourning, a garment of praise instead of a faint spirit. And {they will be called} oaks of righteousness, the planting of Yahweh, to show his glory.

For he will be like a tree planted by water, and to [the] stream it sends its roots, and it will not fear when heat comes, and its leaves will be luxuriant, and in [the] year of drought it will not be anxious, and it will not cease from the bearing of fruit.

On the height of the mountain of Israel I will plant [it], and it will carry branches, and it will bear fruit, and {it will become a noble cedar}, and all of the birds of all wings will dwell under it in the shade of its branches.

Now if some of the branches were broken off, and you, [although you] were a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them and became a sharer of the root of the olive tree's richness,

in whom the whole building, joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

[that] Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith (you having been firmly rooted and established in love),

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

he is like a man building a house, who dug and went down deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And [when] a flood came, the river burst against that house and was not able to shake it, because it had been built well.

Remain in me, and I in you. Just as the branch is not able to bear fruit from itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither [can] you, unless you remain in me.

For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.

built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,

to whom you are drawing near, a living stone rejected by men but chosen [and] precious in the sight of God.

But you, dear friends, [by] building yourselves up in your most holy faith, [by] praying in the Holy Spirit,

Stablished

So then, my dear brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, [because you] know that your labor is not [in] vain in the Lord.

Now the one who establishes us together with you in Christ and who anoints us [is] God,

encourage your hearts and strengthen [you] in every good work and word.

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, [after you] have suffered for a short time, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, [and] establish [you].

Therefore, dear friends, [because you] know [this] beforehand, guard yourselves so that you do not lose your own safe position [because you] have been led away by the error of lawless persons.

Now to the one who is able to protect you from stumbling and make [you] to stand before his glory blameless with exultation,

giving thanks to the Father who has qualified you for a share of the inheritance of the saints in light,

and everything {whatever} you do in word or in deed, giving thanks [for] all [things] in the name of the Lord Jesus to God the Father through him.

giving thanks always for all [things] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to the God and Father,

give thanks in everything; for this [is] the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.
