²⁰ And ye, beloved, on your most holy faith building yourselves up, in the Holy Spirit praying,

¹⁸ through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints --

⁷ being rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as ye were taught -- abounding in it in thanksgiving.

²⁶ And, in like manner also, the Spirit doth help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behoveth `us', we have not known, but the Spirit himself doth make intercession for us with groanings unutterable,

²⁷ and He who is searching the hearts hath known what `is' the mind of the Spirit, because according to God he doth intercede for saints.

¹⁵ What then is it? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms also with the understanding;

¹¹ wherefore, comfort ye one another, and build ye up, one the one, as also ye do.

⁴ he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue, himself doth edify, and he who is prophesying, an assembly doth edify;

⁵ and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that ye may prophecy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.

⁴ because every one who is begotten of God doth overcome the world, and this is the victory that did overcome the world -- our faith;

¹⁰ if any one a captivity doth gather, into captivity he doth go away; if any one by sword doth kill, it behoveth him by sword to be killed; here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.

³ Beloved, all diligence using to write to you concerning the common salvation, I had necessity to write to you, exhorting to agonize for the faith once delivered to the saints,

²⁹ Let no corrupt word out of your mouth go forth, but what is good unto the needful building up, that it may give grace to the hearers;

⁸ who also shall confirm you unto the end -- unblamable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ;

²² dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected?

¹ Simeon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who did obtain a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:

¹² unto the perfecting of the saints, for a work of ministration, for a building up of the body of the Christ,

⁵ taking remembrance of the unfeigned faith that is in thee, that dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that also in thee.

¹⁶ from whom the whole body, being fitly joined together and united, through the supply of every joint, according to the working in the measure of each single part, the increase of the body doth make for the building up of itself in love.

¹⁰ And I have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.

³¹ Then, indeed, the assemblies throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria, had peace, being built up, and, going on in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.

⁹ and did put no difference also between us and them, by the faith having purified their hearts;

¹⁸ to open their eyes, to turn `them' from darkness to light, and `from' the authority of the Adversary unto God, for their receiving forgiveness of sins, and a lot among those having been sanctified, by faith that `is' toward me.

¹⁵ for ye did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye did receive a spirit of adoption in which we cry, `Abba -- Father.'

² for let each one of us please the neighbor for good, unto edification,

²³ All things to me are lawful, but all things are not profitable; all things to me are lawful, but all things do not build up;

²⁶ What then is it, brethren? whenever ye may come together, each of you hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? let all things be for building up;

⁶ and because ye are sons, God did send forth the spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, `Abba, Father!'

⁴ nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: --

¹ Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the choice ones of God, and an acknowledging of truth that `is' according to piety,
