And let these also first be tried; then let them perform the office of footman, being blameless.

These I write to thee, hoping to come to thee quickly:

These having laid down to the brethren, thou shalt be a good servant of Jesus Christ, brought up in the words of faith and good doctrine, which thou bast closely followed.

Proclaim and teach these things.

Bestow diligent care upon these things; be in them; that thy progress may be manifest in all things.

And these things proclaim, that they might be irreprehensible.

I call to witness before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that thou watch these things without preference, doing nothing by bending.

Likewise also the good works of some are manifest; and having these otherwise, it cannot be hid.

And let them having faithful masters not despise, for they are brethren; but rather let them serve, because they are faithful and dearly beloved, they having mutually received of the beneficence. These things teach and beseech.

And having sustenance and covering, with these let us be contented.

And thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow justice, devotion, faith, love, patience, meekness.
