我遣爾、似羊入狼中、故當巧如蛇、馴如鴿、

兄弟、論智慧勿似孩提、論惡當似孩提、論智慧當似成人、

我賴耶穌基督、為爾眾謝我天主、因爾有信、舉世傳聞、

我祈禱、欲爾仁愛與諸知識智慧、日以加多、

爾中誰有智慧知識、當以智慧溫柔、由善行而彰其所為、爾心若懷嫉很、紛爭、則勿矜誇、勿誑妄、以敵真理、如此智慧、非由上而來、乃屬地、屬血氣、屬鬼魔、蓋嫉妒紛爭所在、必有亂行及諸惡事、惟由上之智慧、先廉潔、後和平、溫良、柔順、充滿矜恤、多結善果、不偏視、不偽善、善義之果、必被行和平之人以和平而種、

則可純潔無疵、為天主之子、無可指摘、在此邪僻詭異詭異或作乖戾之世、可照耀其中、如燭世之光、

主曰、我民愚拙、俱不知我、蒙昧之子、毫無明哲、惟巧於行惡、不知行善、

爾自幼識聖經、聖經能使爾有智慧、由信基督而得救、聖經皆由天主默示所作、有益於教誨督責、使人歸正、教人學義、使事天主之人、得以純全練達、能行諸善事、

當以基督有原文抄本作主之道、充於爾心、智慧具備、相教相勸、以歌章、頌詞、神賦、中心感恩而頌主、

我存智慧心、行正直道、主何時臨格我、我居家行事、心存正直、

故勿為愚者、當明主之旨、

今提摩太由爾處返、報我嘉音、言爾有信有愛、又言爾常懷念我儕、切欲見我儕、如我儕之欲見爾、故我儕於諸患難窘迫之中、念兄弟之信、則因爾受慰、爾若信我主而堅立、我儕則生矣、我儕在天主前、為爾甚樂、將何以祝謝天主乎、我儕晝夜祈禱、切求得見爾面、以補爾信之不足、

是以我既聞爾信我主耶穌基督、愛諸聖徒、則為爾稱謝不已、祈禱間思念爾、求我主耶穌基督之天主、榮耀之父、賜爾以智慧默示之神、使爾識主、明爾心目、使爾知天主召爾有望、其望何如、天主以聖徒為業、其榮之豐盛何如、

往哉、我遣爾似羔入狼群、

主之神必賦賦或作感之、使有智慧明哲、有謀略才能、有知識、有敬畏主之心、以敬畏主為悅、行審鞫不待目見、行判斷不待耳聞、

主之民眾多、孰能判斷其間乎、求主以智慧賜僕、能辨是非、為民折中、所羅門因求此、主悅其言、天主謂之曰、爾既求此、不求壽、不求富、亦不求勝敵、但求智慧、俾可聽訟、我則允爾所求、以聰明智慧之心賜爾、爾之前未有如爾者、爾之後亦無如爾者、

天主之道、由爾傳聞、不第在瑪其頓、亞該亞、爾信天主隨在播揚、故不須我儕復有所言、蓋彼眾自言我儕如何至爾處、爾如何棄偶像、而歸永生之真天主、

我儕為爾眾、恆謝天主、祈禱之時、言念爾曹、在吾父天主前、恆念爾曹、以信而行、以愛而勞者、因望我主耶穌基督而忍耐、

我儕每為爾祈禱時、謝我主耶穌基督之父天主、因聞爾信基督耶穌、並愛諸聖徒、緣爾有所望者為爾存於天、乃爾昔聞於福音真道者、此福音傳至爾、亦傳至天下、且結果、如在爾中自爾聞福音、真知天主恩寵之日而結果然、是道、爾學於我所愛之同勞者以巴弗拉、彼緣爾故為基督忠信之役、彼以爾之感聖神而懷仁愛告我、○是以我儕自聞之之時、為爾祈禱不已、求主俾爾得諸睿智靈慧、盡知其旨、
