Practice the things you learned, received, and heard from me, things that you saw me do, and then the God who gives us peace will be with you.

But I am very glad in the Lord that your care for me has come to life again; though you did in fact take thought for me, but you were not able to give effect to it.

I am able to do all things through him who gives me strength.

But I give you a receipt in full for all things abound. I am amply supplied with what you sent by Epaphroditus??n odor of sweet fragrance, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

And my God will give you all you have need of from the wealth of his glory in Christ Jesus.

May glory be given to God our Father forever and ever. Amen.

Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.

to the devoted and steadfast Christian brothers in Colossae; God our Father bless you and give you peace.

We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, as we pray always for you,

Through the hope which is in store for you in heaven; knowledge of which was given to you before in the true word of the good news,

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

That is why, from the day I first heard of it, I have never given up praying for you and asking God to fill you, through full spiritual wisdom and insight, with a clear knowledge of what his will is,

so that you may lead a life that is worthy of the Lord and give him entire satisfaction. May you be fruitful and increase in the doing of all good, as you thus know God!

I ask that you may give thanks to the Father who has made us fit to receive our share of the heritage of the saints in the light.

Who has made us free from the power of evil and given us a place in the kingdom of the Son of his love;

Also, he is the head of the Body, that is, of the church, in virtue of his primacy as the first to be born from the dead ??that gives him pre-eminence over all.

If you keep yourselves safely based in the faith, not moved from the hope of the good news which came to you, and which was given to every living being under heaven; of which I, Paul, was made a servant.

Of which I became a helper according to the administration of God, which was given to me for you to fulfill the word of God,

To whom God was pleased to give knowledge of the wealth of the glory of this secret among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

For it is my desire to give you news of the great fight I am making for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not seen my face in the flesh;

And to you--dead as you once were in your transgressions and in the uncircumcision of your natural state--He has nevertheless given Life with Himself, having forgiven us all our transgressions.

And not joined to the Head, from whom all the body, being given strength and kept together through its joins and bands, has its growth with the increase of God.

If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

Give your minds to the things that are above, not to the things that are on the earth.

And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.

And whatever you say or do, let it all be done with reference to the Lord Jesus, and through Him continue to give thanks to God the Father.

Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.

Masters, give your servants what is right and equal, conscious that you have a Master in heaven.

Give yourselves to prayer at all times, keeping watch with praise;

And making prayer for us, that God may give us an open door for the preaching of the word, the secret of Christ, for which I am now in chains;

Let your speech be always gracious, with a savor of salt, and learn how to give every man a fitting answer.

As to all my affairs, Tychicus, who is a much-loved brother and faithful assistant and fellow bond-servant in the Lord, will give you all the information.

And I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may have news of how we are, and so that he may give your hearts comfort;

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.

Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, wishes to be remembered to you; as does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, welcome him);

For I give witness of him that he has undergone much trouble for you and for those in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.

Give my greetings to the brothers and sisters at Laodicea, and to Nympha and the church that meets in her house.

Say to Archippus, See that you do the work which the Lord has given you to do.

I, Paul, give you this word of love in my handwriting. Keep in memory that I am a prisoner. Grace be with you.

Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the Thessalonian church in union with God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ; God bless you and give you peace.

We give praise to God at all times for you, keeping you in memory in our prayers;

And you became imitators of us and of the Lord. [And even though] you suffered much affliction, you welcomed the message with joy [given to you] by the Holy Spirit,

For they themselves give the news of how we came among you; and how you were turned from images to God, to the worship of a true and living God,

But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.

So in my fond affection it was my joy to give you, not only the gospel of God, but my very life also, because you had become dear to me.

So that your lives might be pleasing to God, who has given you a part in his kingdom and his glory.

And for this cause we still give praise to God, that, when the word came to your ears through us, you took it, not as the word of man, but, as it truly is, the word of God, which has living power in you who have faith.

We sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the good news of Christ, to give you strength and comfort in your faith;

[So], for this reason, when I could not stand it any longer, I also sent [Timothy] to find out about your faith. I was afraid that somehow the tempter [i.e., Satan] had tempted you [to give up] and that our work [on your behalf] will have become useless.

But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has given us good news of your faith and love, and that you have happy memories of us, desiring greatly to see us, even as we do to see you;

Thus, my brethren, your conduct has given us great consolation, under all our persecutions and distress.

For how great is the praise which we give to God for you, and how great the joy with which we are glad because of you before our God;

And the Lord give you increase of love in fullest measure to one another and to all men, even as our love to you;

Whoever, then, goes against this word, goes against not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

So then, give comfort to one another with these words.

When people say, "What peace and security!" then suddenly destruction will be upon them, like birth-pains upon a woman about to give birth to a child, and there will be no escape.

But you, believers, [all you who believe in Christ as Savior and acknowledge Him as God’s Son] are not in spiritual darkness [nor held by its power], that the day [of judgment] would overtake you [by surprise] like a thief;

I entreat you, brothers, to acknowledge those who are toiling among you and are your leaders in the Lord, and give you counsel.

and give you exhortation, that ye have them the more in love: For their work's sake, and be at peace with them.

We [earnestly] urge you, believers, admonish those who are out of line [the undisciplined, the unruly, the disorderly], encourage the timid [who lack spiritual courage], help the [spiritually] weak, be very patient with everyone [always controlling your temper].

Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all.

Pray without ceasing: In every thing give thanks;

Make it a habit to give thanks for everything, for this is God's will for you through Christ Jesus.

May God himself, the giver of peace, consecrate you through and through. Spirit, soul, and body, may you be kept sound, and be found irreproachable when our Lord Jesus Christ comes.

Give all the brothers a holy kiss.

I give orders in the name of the Lord that all the brothers are to be present at the reading of this letter.

God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.

It is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, because of the great increase of your faith, and the wealth of your love for one another;

Which is a clear sign of the decision which God in his righteousness has made; to give you a part in his kingdom, for which you have undergone this pain;

For it is an act of righteousness on God's part to give trouble as their reward to those who are troubling you,

and to give rest to you who are being crushed with sorrows, along with us, at the unveiling of our Lord Jesus Christ from heaven, with His mighty angels

To give punishment to those who have no knowledge of God, and to those who do not give ear to the good news of our Lord Jesus:

To this end we always pray for you too, asking our God to find you worthy of the call he has given you, and by his power to fulfil every desire you may have for goodness, and every effort of your faith,

So that glory may be given to the name of our Lord Jesus through you, and you may have glory in him, by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Give no belief to false words: because there will first be a falling away from the faith, and the revelation of the man of sin, the son of destruction,

Who puts himself against all authority, lifting himself up over all which is named God or is given worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, putting himself forward as God.

And then will come the revelation of that evil one, whom the Lord Jesus will put to death with the breath of his mouth, and give to destruction by the revelation of his coming;

And for this cause, God will give them up to the power of deceit and they will put their faith in what is false:

But for you, brothers, whom the Lord loves, I ought to give thanks to God continually, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation in consecration of the Spirit and belief of the truth.

So then, brothers, be strong in purpose, and keep the teaching which has been given to you by word or by letter from us.

May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and graciously given us encouragement that is eternal, and a hope that is well-founded,

Give you comfort and strength in every good work and word.

But the Lord is to be trusted, and He will give you strength and guard you from the evil one.

We have confidence in you through the Lord that you are now practicing the directions which we give you and that you will continue to do so.

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.

for you know what an example we have given for your imitation: that our conduct among you was regular:

Not because we have no right, but that we might give ourselves an example to you, in order to imitate us.

For even when we were with you, we used to give you this command: "If anyone is not willing to work, neither should he eat."

Now to such we give orders and make request in the Lord Jesus, that, working quietly, they get their living.

If any man does not give heed to what I have said in this letter, mark that man; do not associate with him, so as to make him feel ashamed;

And may the Lord who gives us peace give you peace in whatever circumstances you may be. The Lord be with you all.

to Timothy, my true child in faith; God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord bless you and be merciful to you, and give you peace.

It was my desire, when I went on into Macedonia, that you might make a stop at Ephesus, to give orders to certain men not to put forward a different teaching,

Or to give attention to stories and long lists of generations, from which come questionings and doubts, in place of God's ordered way of life which is in faith;

knowing this, that the law [is] not given for a righteous [person] but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and totally worldly, for the one who kills his father and the one who kills his mother, for murderers,

for sexually immoral people, for homosexuals, for kidnappers, for liars, and for people who give false testimony. And [law is for] everything else that is against the sound teaching

Which may be seen in the good news of the glory of the great God, which was given into my care.

I am always thanking Christ Jesus our Lord who has given me strength for it, for thinking me trustworthy and putting me into the ministry,

Though I had said violent words against God, and done cruel acts, causing great trouble: but I was given mercy, because I did it without knowledge, not having faith;

and the blessing of our Lord has been given me in the greatest abundance, together with faith and love that union with Christ Jesus brings.
