For neither at any time used we insinuating language, as ye know, nor a pretext for covetousness; God is witness:

For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: for night and day working hard, that we might be no burden to any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

For this cause also, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your fidelity, lest by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labour should be in vain.

that ye walk becomingly towards those without, and need no assistance from any person.

See that no man return evil for evil to any man; but always pursue that which is good, both towards one another, and towards all men.

Let no man deceive you in any way: because that cannot be till the apostasy come first, and the man of sin appear, the son of perdition,

neither did we eat bread with any man unpaid for, but with labour and toil worked night and day, that we might be burdensome to none of you:

And if any man obey not our word by letter, mark that man, and maintain no society with him, that he may be ashamed.

for whoremongers, for sodomites, for stealers of men, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing which is contrary to sound doctrine,

But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn as their first duty to shew their piety towards their own family, and make a grateful return to their progenitors: for this is becoming and acceptable before God.

But if any man provide not for his own relations, and especially for those more immediately of his own family, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

But if any man or woman who believes hath widows their relations, let him provide for them, and let not the church be burdened; that there may be a sufficiency for the real widows.

If any man teach another doctrine, and attend not to the sound words, which are those of Jesus Christ our Lord, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

For that we brought nothing into the world is evident, neither can we carry any thing out of it.

The Lord grant that he may find mercy with the Lord in the great day; and how liberally he ministered to me at Ephesus, thou knowest better than any other person.

FOR this reason we ought to attend more diligently to the things which have been heard, lest by any means we let them flow by us.

Take heed, brethren, that there be not in any one of you a wicked heart of infidelity, [evident] in departure from the living God:

LET us fear then lest, though a promise be left of entering into his rest, any one of you should appear to fail of obtaining it.

Let us then earnestly endeavour to enter into that rest, lest any person fall after the same example of unbelief.

[he adds,] "and their sins and their iniquities I will in no wise remember any more."

Any man who treated the law of Moses with neglect, was put to death, without mercy, on the deposition of two or three witnesses:

carefully observing lest any of you fail of attaining the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and by it many be defiled;

lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of bread parted with his birthrights.

Let the tenor of your life be divested of the love of money; content with your present possessions: for he hath said, "I will in no wise leave thee, neither will I in any case forsake thee."

But if any man of you be deficient in wisdom, let him ask it of God, who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not and it shall be given him.

For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing from the Lord.

For if any man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man that looks at his natural face in a glass;

If any man thinks he is a religious character among you, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, he is a perfect man, and capable of reining in the whole body.

But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your no, no; that ye fall not under condemnation.

Is any man among you under afflictions? let him pray. Is any man happy in mind? let him sing psalms.

Is any man sick among you? let him send for the presbyters of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

Brethren, if any man among you should have erred from the truth, and one convert him;

For this is gracious conduct, if for conscience towards God, any man undergo sorrows, suffering wrongfully.

as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose children ye are, if ye do well, and are not affrighted with any terror.

If any man speak, let it be agreeably to the oracles of God; if any man act as a deacon, let it be from the strength which God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory and might for ever and ever. Amen.

But if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him give glory to God on this very account.

Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make sure your calling and election: for by doing these things, ye shall never at any time stumble:

Knowing this in the first place, that all scriptural prophecy is not from any man's own suggestions.

The Lord doth not delay the promise (as some count it delay); but is longsuffering towards us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should have space for repentance.

MY dear children, these things I write to you, that ye should not sin. And if any of us sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

Love not the world, neither the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

But the unction which ye have received from him abideth in you; and ye need not that any person should instruct you. But as the same unction teacheth you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie; and as it hath taught you, abide in him.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

If any person say, I love God, yet hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love the God whom he hath not seen?

If any person see his brother committing a sin not unto death, he shall request, and God will grant him life for those that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I say not that he should request for that.

If any person come unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into the house, nor say to him, Welcome.

Lo! I stand at the door, and knock: if any person hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and I will sup with him, and he with me.

AND after these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, to hold back the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, neither on the sea, nor on any tree.

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun scorch them, nor any burning heat.

And it was told them, Hurt not the grass of the earth, nor any herb, nor any tree, but only those men who have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

And if any person attempts to hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any person attempts to injure them, he must thus be slain.

and they could not prevail; neither was there any more place found for them in the heaven.

If any person leads [others] into captivity, he shall be led into captivity; if any person kills with the sword, he must be slain by the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

And a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any person worship the beast, and his image, and receive the brand upon his forehead, and upon his right hand,

And the merchants of the earth wept and wailed over her: because no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

And the delicate autumnal fruit of thy soul's earner longing is gone from thee, and all things that are dainty and that are splendid are departed from thee, and never shalt thou find them any more.

And the sound of harpers, and musicians, and flute players, and trumpeters, shall never be heard in thee more; and no artificer of whatever trade shall be found in thee any more; and the sound of a milstone shall be heard in thee no more;

and never shall the light of a lamp shine in thee any more; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard in thee no more: because thy merchants were the grandees of the earth; because all nations were deluded by thy magical incantation.

And if any one was not found inscribed on the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

And God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more; nor shall mourning, nor crying, nor toil be any more: because the former things are passed away.

And there shall no more enter into it any thing unclean, or that practises abomination and lying; but only those who are written in the book of life of the Lamb.

And no accursed thing is there any more; and the throne of God and of the Lamb are in it, and his servants will pay divine worship to him.

For I testify to every one who heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man add to these things, God will lay upon him the plagues that are written in this book:

and if any take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the book of life, and from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
