The sun is near, and our Father is nearer, in our hearts…

1Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort [you] by the Lord Yeshua, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please Yahuah [so] ye would abound more and more. 2For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Yeshua 3For this is the will of Yahuah, [even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not Yahuah 6That no [man] go beyond and defraud his brother in [any] matter: because that Yahuah [is] the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7For Yahuah has not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but Yahuah, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

9But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of Yahuah to love one another. 10And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that you increase more and more; 11And that you study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; 12That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and [that] ye may have lack of nothing.
