To which end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness and the work of faith with power,

so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you and ye in him, according to the grace of our God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also with you;

and that we may be delivered from bad and evil men, for faith is not the portion of all.

But if any one obey not our word by the letter, mark that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed of himself;

The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is the mark in every letter; so I write.
