My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.

for now I can really live, since you are standing firm in the Lord.

It makes me exceedingly happy to find that some of your children are guided by truth, just as we have been commanded to be by the Father.

For it makes me exceedingly happy to have some brothers come and testify to the truth of your life, for you are guided by truth.

and get the calf we are fattening, and kill it, and let us feast and celebrate,

I have told you all this so that you may have the happiness that I have had, and your happiness may be complete.

This will bring gladness and delight to you, and many will rejoice over his birth.
