whom not having seen ye love; on whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently:

Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

when they see your modest and respectful behavior [together with your devotion and appreciation—love your husband, encourage him, and enjoy him as a blessing from God].

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

For, He that would love life, And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile:

above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins:

I appeal therefore to those who are elders among you; I am their brother-elder and a witness to what the Christ suffered, and I am to share in the glory that is to be revealed??2 be shepherds of the flock of God that is among you, not as though it were forced upon you but of your own free will, and not from base love of gain but freely,

I urge you to be true shepherds of the flock of God among you, not because you are compelled, but of your own free will; not from a base love of gain, but with a ready spirit;

I have been writing to you briefly by the hand of Silas, our true-hearted Brother (for so I regard him), to urge upon you, and to bear my testimony, that in what I have written is to be found the true love of God. On that take your stand.

She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.

Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be unto you all that are in Christ.
