¹⁸ In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.

²⁰ giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father;

⁶ In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

¹⁷ Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.

¹⁵ Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.

¹⁵ For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

¹ > I will bless Yahweh at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.

² that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

³ For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

¹⁷ The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God's will remains forever.

²¹ He said, "Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. Yahweh gave, and Yahweh has taken away. Blessed be the name of Yahweh."
