For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and {that} spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. {drought: or, restraint}

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner {stone};

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and {be} not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, {and} which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know {these things} before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.

Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present {you} faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; {among them: or, for them}

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of {our} lips giving thanks to his name. {giving...: Gr. confessing to}

And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, {do} all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, {ye are} God's building. {husbandry: or, tillage}

In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds {they are} without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle {you}.

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know {them}, and be established in the present truth.

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, {ye are} God's building. {husbandry: or, tillage}

If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
