11Wherefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as also ye do.

12But we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; 13and to esteem them exceeding highly in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves. 14And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the fainthearted, support the weak, be longsuffering toward all. 15See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all. 16Rejoice always; 17pray without ceasing; 18in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward. 19Quench not the Spirit; 20despise not prophesyings; 21prove 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 entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
