in hope of eternal life, which God, who can't lie, promised before time began;

that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:

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

instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world;

But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
