Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you.

That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. The first epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.

Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:

Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. The second epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.

Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:

But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen. The first to Timothy was written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest city of Phrygia Pacatiana.

And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:

The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. The second epistle unto Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second time.

They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,

To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.

When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.

All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen. It was written to Titus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Cretians, from Nicopolis of Macedonia.

Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;

Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.

And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?

Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;

But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)

For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

Grace be with you all. Amen. Written to the Hebrews from Italy, by Timothy.

Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.

Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
