12And we beseech you, brethren, to know those who labor among you, and preside over you in the Lord, and admonish you; 13and to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
14Now we exhort you, brethren, admonish the unruly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the weak, be long-suffering toward all. 15See that none render evil for evil to any one but ever follow that which is good, both toward one another, and toward all.
16Rejoice always. 17Pray without ceasing. 18In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus, toward you.
19Quench not the Spirit. 20Despise not prophesyings; 21but prove all things, hold fast that which is good. 22Abstain from every form of evil. 23And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved whole without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24Faithful is he who calls you, who also will do it.
25Brethren, pray for us.
26Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss.
27I adjure you by the Lord, that this letter be read to all the holy brethren.
28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
