For many are incorrigible, speaking vain things and egotistical, especially those from the circumcision,

whose mouths it is necessary to stop; who overturn whole families, teaching those things which it does not behoove, for the sake of disgraceful gain.

But speak you those things which become healthy teaching.

The word is faithful, and I wish you to be established concerning these things, in order that those having believed in God may think to excel in good works. These things are beautiful and useful to the people:

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