Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

Behold, you have instructed many, you have strengthened the weak hands.

Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees.

He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young.

He won't break a bruised reed. He won't quench a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.

You haven't strengthened the diseased, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought back that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with rigor you have ruled over them.

For, behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.

It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

Receive

Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.

He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.

Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,

Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me."

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honor,

If anyone comes to you, and doesn't bring this teaching, don't receive him into your house, and don't welcome him,

Doubtful disputations

One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
