Therefore I, the imprisoned in the Lord, beseech you to walk Worthy of the calling which ye were called,

Therefore this I say, and testify in the Lord, that ye no more walk as also the rest of the nations, in the vanity of their mind,

Be ye therefore imitators of God, as dearly beloved children;

Be ye not therefore partakers with them.

See therefore how ye walk accurately, not as unwise, but as wise,

Stand therefore, having girded your loins around with truth, and put on the armor of justice;
