¹⁶ have ye not known that ye are a sanctuary of God, and the Spirit of God doth dwell in you?

⁹ faithful `is' God, through whom ye were called to the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

²⁰ `And not in regard to these alone do I ask, but also in regard to those who shall be believing, through their word, in me;

²¹ that they all may be one, as Thou Father `art' in me, and I in Thee; that they also in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.

²² `And I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one as we are one;

²³ I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that Thou didst send me, and didst love them as Thou didst love me.

²⁴ `Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

¹² For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also `is' the Christ,

¹ Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

² through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.

³ And not only `so', but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance;

²⁰ and we have known that the Son of God is come, and hath given us a mind, that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this one is the true God and the life age-during!

¹³ in this we know that in Him we do remain, and He in us, because of His Spirit He hath given us.

¹⁴ the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, `is' with you all! Amen.

¹⁶ and what agreement to the sanctuary of God with idols? for ye are a sanctuary of the living God, according as God said -- `I will dwell in them, and will walk among `them', and I will be their God, and they shall be My people,

²⁴ and he who is keeping His commands, in Him he doth remain, and He in him; and in this we know that He doth remain in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.

²⁰ for where there are two or three gathered together -- to my name, there am I in the midst of them.'

⁷ be subject, then, to God; stand up against the devil, and he will flee from you;

⁸ draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you; cleanse hands, ye sinners! and purify hearts, ye two-souled!

⁹ be exceeding afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter to mourning be turned, and the joy to heaviness;

³ and I heard a great voice out of the heaven, saying, `Lo, the tabernacle of God `is' with men, and He will tabernacle with them, and they shall be His peoples, and God Himself shall be with them -- their God,

²⁰ lo, I have stood at the door, and I knock; if any one may hear my voice, and may open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

¹⁷ so that if any one `is' in Christ -- `he is' a new creature; the old things did pass away, lo, become new have the all things.

¹⁸ And the all things `are' of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and did give to us the ministration of the reconciliation,

¹⁹ how that God was in Christ -- a world reconciling to Himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses; and having put in us the word of the reconciliation,

²⁰ in behalf of Christ, then, we are ambassadors, as if God were calling through us, we beseech, in behalf of Christ, `Be ye reconciled to God;'

³ that which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship `is' with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;

⁷ Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God;

²² may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;

²⁸ And now, little children, remain in him, that when he may be manifested, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before him, in his presence;
