*
But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you ,
brethren ,
beloved of the Lord ,
because God has ,
from the beginning ,
chosen you to salvation ,
through sanctification of spirit ,
and belief of truth ;
*
to which he called you ,
by our gospel ,
that you might obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ .
*
Well ,
then ,
brethren ,
stand firm ,
and hold fast the traditions which you have been taught ,
whether by our word or letter .
*
And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself ,
and God ,
even our Father ,
who has loved us ,
and given us everlasting consolation ,
and good hope through favor ,
*
comfort your hearts ,
and establish you in every good word and work .
