[7] For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunk, are drunk in the night. [8] But let us, who are of the day, be sober, having on the breastplate of faith and charity, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

[12] And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you: [13] That you esteem them more abundantly in charity, for their work's sake. Have peace with them. [14] And we beseech you, brethren, rebuke the unquiet, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient towards all men. [15] See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good towards each other, and towards all men.

[25] Brethren, pray for us. [26] Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss. [27] I charge you by the Lord, that this epistle be read to all the holy brethren. [28] The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen
