| 14 | And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all. |
| 15 | See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all. |
| 16 | Rejoice always, |
| 17 | pray constantly, |
| 18 | give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. |
| 19 | Do not quench the Spirit, |
| 20 | do not despise prophesying, |
| 21 | but test everything; hold fast what is good, |
| 22 | abstain from every form of evil. |
| 23 | May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| 24 | He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it. |
| 25 | Brethren, pray for us. |
