We ask you, brothers, to appreciate those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you. To esteem them very highly in love because of the work they do. And be at peace among yourselves.
Remember those who are taking the lead among you, men that spoke the Word of God to you. Consider their behavior and imitate their faith.
