So then, he who gets married to his virgin does well, and he who keeps her unmarried does better.

But now his position as priest is higher. because through him God has made a better agreement with man, based on the giving of better things.

Because if it is God's purpose for you to undergo pain, it is better to do so for well-doing than for evil-doing.

My loved one, it is my prayer that you may do well in all things, and be healthy in body, even as your soul does well.

Who have given witness to the church of your love for them: and you will do well to send them on their way well cared for, as is right for servants of God:

And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.

And he said to him, You have done well, O good servant: because you have done well in a small thing you will have authority over ten towns.

But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.

Do not give evil for evil to any man. Let all your business be well ordered in the eyes of all men.

For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.

It is better not to take meat or wine or to do anything which might be a cause of trouble to your brother.

For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked.

For who made you better than your brother? or what have you that has not been given to you? but if it has been given to you, what cause have you for pride, as if it had not been given to you?

Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.

But if they have not self-control let them get married; for married life is better than the burning of desire.

But if, in any man's opinion, he is not doing what is right for his virgin, if she is past her best years, and there is need for it, let him do what seems right to him; it is no sin; let them be married.

But the man who is strong in mind and purpose, who is not forced but has control over his desires, does well if he comes to the decision to keep her a virgin.

But it will be better for her to keep as she is, in my opinion: and it seems to me that I have the Spirit of God.

But God's approval of us is not based on the food we take: if we do not take it we are no worse for it; and if we take it we are no better.

But I have not made use of any of these things: and I am not writing this in the hope that it may be so for me: for it would be better for me to undergo death, than for any man to make this pride of mine of no effect.

But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

But the wise made answer, saying, There may not be enough for us and you; it would be better for you to go to the traders and get oil for yourselves.

His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.

His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.

You were going on well; who was the cause of your not giving ear to what is true?

Worship of images, use of strange powers, hates, fighting, desire for what another has, angry feelings, attempts to get the better of others, divisions, false teachings,

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith,

And let us not get tired of well-doing; for at the right time we will get in the grain, if we do not give way to weariness.

Let it then be your desire to be like God, as well-loved children;

Testing by experience what is well-pleasing to the Lord;

So that all may be well for you, and your life may be long on the earth.

But so that you may have knowledge of my business, and how I am, Tychicus, the well-loved brother and tested servant in the Lord, will give you news of all things:

So that you may give your approval to the best things; that you may be true and without wrongdoing till the day of Christ;

I am in a hard position between the two, having a desire to go away and be with Christ, which is very much better:

Doing nothing through envy or through pride, but with low thoughts of self let everyone take others to be better than himself;

So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones.

But you did well to have care for me in my need.

And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.

And they were watching him to see if he would make him well on the Sabbath day, so that they might have something against him.

And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.

For he had made such a great number well that all those who were diseased were falling down before him for the purpose of touching him.

And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

And had undergone much at the hands of a number of medical men, and had given all she had, and was no better, but even worse,

For she said, If I may only put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.

And straight away the fountain of her blood was stopped, and she had a feeling in her body that her disease had gone and she was well.

And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be free from your disease.

And he was unable to do any work of power there, but only to put his hands on one or two persons who were ill, and make them well.

And they sent out a number of evil spirits, and put oil on a great number who were ill, and made them well.

I have all things and more than enough: I am made full, having had from Epaphroditus the things which came from you, a perfume of a sweet smell, an offering well pleasing to God.

As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us,

And with him I have sent Onesimus, the true and well-loved brother, who is one of you. They will give you word of everything which is taking place here.

Luke, our well-loved medical friend, and Demas, send you their love.

And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.

And our desire is that you will keep control over those whose lives are not well ordered, giving comfort to the feeble-hearted, supporting those with little strength, and putting up with much from all.

Now we give you orders, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from all those whose behaviour is not well ordered and in harmony with the teaching which they had from us.

And you, my brothers, do not get tired of well-doing.

Keeping faith, and being conscious of well-doing; for some, by not doing these things, have gone wrong in relation to the faith:

Ruling his house well, having his children under control with all serious behaviour;

Let Deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their houses well.
