For, from within, out of the heart of men, the base designs, come forth, - fornications, thefts,

But, he, the third time, said unto them - Why! what base thing hath this man done? Nothing worthy of death, found I in him. Chastising him, then, I will release him!

tribulation and anguish - against every soul of man who worketh out what is base, both of Jew first and of Greek, -

Acteth not unbecomingly, seeketh not her own things, is not easily provoked, imputeth not that which is base,

But we pray unto God, that ye may do nothing base, - not that, we, may appear, accepted, but that, ye, the honourable thing, may be doing, even though, we, should be, as it were, rejected;

Make dead, therefore, your members that are on the earth - as regardeth fornication, impurity, passion, base coveting, and greed, the which, is idolatry, -

Ministers, in the same way, - dignified, not double-tongued, not, to much wine, given, not greedy of base gain,

For it is needful that the overseer be - unaccusable, as God's steward, not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not ready to wound, not seeking gain by base means,

Whose mouths must needs be stopped, men who are upsetting whole houses, teaching the things which ought not to be taught - for the sake of base gain.

Shepherd the beloved flock of God, which is among you, - not by compulsion, but by choice, nor yet for base gain, but of a ready mind, -
