But if any man will not be ruled in this question, this is not our way of doing things, and it is not done in the churches of God.
Letting yourselves be ruled by one another in the fear of Christ.
For you yourselves are used to taking us as your example, because our life among you was ruled by order,

For this cause be ruled by God; but make war on the Evil One and he will be put to flight before you.
Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:
And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:
Wives, be ruled by your husbands; so that even if some of them give no attention to the word, their hearts may be changed by the behaviour of their wives,
And these were the ornaments of the holy women of the past, whose hope was in God, being ruled by their husbands:

And in the same way, let the younger men be ruled by the older ones. Let all of you put away pride and make yourselves ready to be servants: for God is a hater of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low.
Having first of all the knowledge that in the last days there will be men who, ruled by their evil desires, will make sport of holy things,
Keep in mind, then, the teaching which was given to you, and be ruled by it and have a change of heart. If then you do not keep watch, I will come like a thief, and you will have no knowledge of the hour when I will come on you.
