⁸ `And ye -- ye may not be called Rabbi, for one is your director -- the Christ, and all ye are brethren;

¹ Many teachers become not, my brethren, having known that greater judgment we shall receive,

³² and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'

⁴⁹ and immediately, having come to Jesus, he said, `Hail, Rabbi,' and kissed him;

¹⁰ nor may ye be called directors, for one is your director -- the Christ.

⁹ and he saith to me, `See -- not; for fellow-servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of those keeping the words of this scroll; before God bow.'

¹⁰ and I fell before his feet, to bow before him, and he saith to me, `See -- not! fellow servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren, those having the testimony of Jesus; bow before God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of the prophecy.'

⁹ I, John, who also `am' your brother, and fellow-partner in the tribulation, and in the reign and endurance, of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ;

³ neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but patterns becoming of the flock,

¹ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother,

² to the saints in Colossae, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

¹⁵ of whom the whole family in the heavens and on earth is named,

⁵ for not ourselves do we preach, but Christ Jesus -- Lord, and ourselves your servants because of Jesus;

²⁴ not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by the faith ye stand.

³ for yet ye are fleshly, for where `there is' among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?

⁴ for when one may say, `I, indeed, am of Paul;' and another, `I -- of Apollos;' are ye not fleshly?

⁵ Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but ministrants through whom ye did believe, and to each as the Lord gave?

¹² and I say this, that each one of you saith, `I, indeed, am of Paul' -- `and I of Apollos,' -- `and I of Cephas,' -- `and I of Christ.'

¹³ Hath the Christ been divided? was Paul crucified for you? or to the name of Paul were ye baptized;

⁹ for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.

¹⁰ And thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand at the tribunal of the Christ;

¹³ ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am;

¹⁴ if then I did wash your feet -- the Lord and the Teacher -- ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

⁵ While he is yet speaking, lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son, -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight; hear him.'

²⁵ sufficient to the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord; if the master of the house they did call Beelzeboul, how much more those of his household?
