in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised from the most ancient times,

that aged men be sober, grave, discreet, sound in faith, in love, in patience;

that they may teach the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;

But when the kindness and love for men of God our Saviour appeared,

that having been accepted as righteous by his grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of everlasting life.

All that are with me salute thee. Salute those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
