Who are you that judge another man's servant? to his own master he stands or falls. Yea, he shall be held up: for God is able to make him stand.

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them who are sanctified.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,

Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

To the end he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, who has loved us, and has given us everlasting encouragement and good hope through grace,

Encourage your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.

But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil.

Therefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.

But the God of all grace, who has called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that you have suffered a while, restore, establish, strengthen, settle you.

Now unto him who is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

To the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them who were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

To which he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Remember that Jesus Christ, descended from David, was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

And immediately he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he has purposed in himself:

Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

He reveals the deep and secret things: he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret unto his servants the prophets.

For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

And he turned to his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see:

For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.

How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote before in few words,

Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
