And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.
for we aim at what is honorable not only in the Lord's sight but also in the sight of man.
But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
Let all that you do be done in love.
A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.
Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the Lord.
Hear, O sons, a father's instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain insight,
Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled.
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
My son, be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
