Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.

我们求神，叫你们一件恶事都不做；这不是要显明我们是蒙悦纳的，是要你们行事端正，任凭人看我们是被弃绝的吧！

我们祈求上帝使你们不做任何恶事；这不是要显明我们是经得起考验的，而是要你们行事端正，即使我们似乎经不起考验也没有关系。

我求上帝、俾爾所行無惡、非欲顯我見納、惟欲爾為善、雖視我如見棄者亦可、

我求上帝、使爾不行惡、非為示我有據、但余意不專在據也、惟願爾行善、

我求天主、使爾不行惡、非欲顯我見納、惟欲爾行善、雖有人視我如見棄者、亦可、

吾茲祈天主使爾不致為非作惡、而非欲證吾之真實、乃欲使爾為善耳。倘能成爾之美、則吾雖蹈有名無實、色厲內荏之嫌、亦所願焉！

Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong— not so that people will see that we have stood the test but so that you will do what is right even though we may seem to have failed.

I pray to God that you won’t do anything wrong. I don’t pray so that people will see that I have passed the test. Instead, I pray this so that you will do what is right, even if it seems I have failed.

But we pray to God that you may not do wrong— not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, though we may seem to have failed.

By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and[ yet] true;As unknown, and[ yet] well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things[ are] honest, whatsoever things[ are] just, whatsoever things[ are] pure, whatsoever things[ are] lovely, whatsoever things[ are] of good report; if[ there be] any virtue, and if[ there be] any praise, think on these things.

For kings, and[ for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve[ me] unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom[ be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and[ I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and[ in] all judgment;That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Blessed[ is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by[ your] good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

For[ his] letters, say they,[ are] weighty and powerful; but[ his] bodily presence[ is] weak, and[ his] speech contemptible.

For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.We[ are] fools for Christ’s sake, but ye[ are] wise in Christ; we[ are] weak, but ye[ are] strong; ye[ are] honourable, but we[ are] despised.Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world,[ and are] the offscouring of all things unto this day.

For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus’[ household].
