Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Now may the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be like-minded among one another, according to Christ Jesus,

And walk in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a fragrant aroma.

For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving behind an example for you, that you should follow in His footsteps,

For it is better to suffer for doing good, if it is the will of God, than [for] doing evil.

For Christ also suffered once to atone for sins, [the] just for [the] unjust, that He might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit,

He who claims to abide in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
