Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. {rudiments: or, elements} {make a prey: or, seduce you, or, lead you astray}

A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;

As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.

Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

For ye are yet carnal: for whereas {there is} among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? {divisions: or, factions} {as men: Gr. according to man?}

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and {that} there be no divisions among you; but {that} ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. {divisions: Gr. schisms}

Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, {Ye must} be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no {such} commandment:

Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell {it} unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, {and said}, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.

Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe {unto him}, through whom they come!

They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would {no doubt} have continued with us: but {they went out}, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it. {divisions: or, schisms}

That we {henceforth} be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, {and} cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove {them}.

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and {that} there be no divisions among you; but {that} ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. {divisions: Gr. schisms}

If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into {your} house, neither bid him God speed:

Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For {it is} a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. {Perverse...: or, Gallings one of another}

Frowardness {is} in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. {soweth: Heb. casteth forth}

Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
