How are you able to say to your brother, "Brother, allow [me] to remove the speck [that is] in your eye," [while] you yourself do not see the beam of wood in your [own] eye? Hypocrite!

And [while] a large crowd was gathering and [they] were going to him from town [after town], he spoke by means of a parable:

For [while] we were still helpless, yet at the proper time Christ died for the ungodly.

but God demonstrates his own love for us, [in] that [while] we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Therefore, [although we are] always confident and know that [while we] are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord--

But if [while] seeking to be justified by Christ, [we] ourselves also have been found [to be] sinners, then [is] Christ an agent of sin? May it never be!
