¹³ and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

¹⁴ if ye ask anything in my name I will do `it'.

¹⁵ `If ye love me, my commands keep,

²⁴ have ye not known that those running in a race -- all indeed run, but one doth receive the prize? so run ye, that ye may obtain;

²⁵ and every one who is striving, is in all things temperate; these, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown they may receive, but we an incorruptible;

²⁶ I, therefore, thus run, not as uncertainly, thus I fight, as not beating air;

²⁷ but I chastise my body, and bring `it' into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.

²³ and all, whatever ye may do -- out of soul work -- as to the Lord, and not to men,

¹³ for God it is who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.

¹⁰ All that thy hand findeth to do, with thy power do, for there is no work, and device, and knowledge, and wisdom in Sheol whither thou art going.

¹³ For all things I have strength, in Christ's strengthening me;

²⁹ He is giving power to the weary, And to those not strong He increaseth might.

³⁰ Even youths are wearied and fatigued, And young men utterly stumble,

³¹ But those expecting Jehovah pass `to' power, They raise up the pinion as eagles, They run and are not fatigued, They go on and do not faint!

¹³ brethren, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold; and one thing -- the things behind indeed forgetting, and to the things before stretching forth --

¹⁴ to the mark I pursue for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

¹⁵ As many, therefore, as `are' perfect -- let us think this, and if `in' anything ye think otherwise, this also shall God reveal to you,

¹¹ For I have known the thoughts that I am thinking towards you -- an affirmation of Jehovah; thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give to you posterity and hope.

¹ Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,

² looking to the author and perfecter of faith -- Jesus, who, over-against the joy set before him -- did endure a cross, shame having despised, on the right hand also of the throne of God did sit down;

³ for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls -- being faint.

⁴ Not yet unto blood did ye resist -- with the sin striving;

²⁹ `And ye -- seek not what ye may eat, or what ye may drink, and be not in suspense,

³⁰ for all these things do the nations of the world seek after, and your Father hath known that ye have need of these things;

³¹ but, seek ye the reign of God, and all these things shall be added to you.

⁷ There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.

¹⁹ having gone, then, disciple all the nations, (baptizing them -- to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,

²⁰ teaching them to observe all, whatever I did command you,) and lo, I am with you all the days -- till the full end of the age.'

¹⁰ for even when we were with you, this we did command you, that if any one is not willing to work, neither let him eat,

¹¹ for we hear of certain walking among you disorderly, nothing working, but over working,

¹² and such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness working, their own bread they may eat;

¹³ and ye, brethren, may ye not be weary doing well,

¹⁴ and if any one do not obey our word through the letter, this one note ye, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed,

¹⁰ I greatly rejoice in Jehovah, Joy doth my soul in my God, For He clothed me with garments of salvation, With a robe of righteousness covereth Me, As a bridegroom prepareth ornaments, And as a bride putteth on her jewels.
