And [after] the synagogue had broken up, many of the Jews and the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who were speaking to them [and] were persuading them to continue in the grace of God.

strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging [them] to continue in the faith and [saying], "Through many persecutions it is necessary [for] us to enter into the kingdom of God."

And because I am convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,

Fix [your] attention on yourself and on your teaching. Continue in them, for [by] doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

But you continue in [the things] which you have learned and are convinced [of], [because you] know from whom you learned [them],

they will perish, but you continue, and they will all become old like a garment,

Brotherly love must continue.
