| [4]Just as for in one body members many are to us and all of those members not have one function to them |
[4]For as in one body we have many members, and as all the members have not one work, |
| [5]In this way also we who many are one we are body in The Messiah each one of us but members we are of each other |
[5]So also we who are many are one body in the Meshiha; but we are each of us members one of another. |
| [6]But there are to us gifts of a variety according to the grace that is given us there is that of prophesy according to the measure of his faith |
[6]But we have various gifts according to the grace that is given to us: is it prophecy? [let him who has received it] prophesy according to the measure of the faith. |

[7]Hath [another the gift] of ministry? [let him be employed] in his ministry; he who is a teacher, [let him labour] in his teaching; |

| [9]And not let be deceitful your love but be you hating evil and cleaving to the good |

| [14]Bless your persecutors bless and do not curse |
[14]Bless your persecutors; bless, and curse not. |
| [15]Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep |

| [16]And whatever esteem you about yourselves do also about your brethren and do not esteem you opinions high but go out to those who are humble and not be you wise in opinions of yourselves |
[16]And what you think of yourselves, [that] also think of your brethren; nor think with a high mind, but incline to them who are humble; and be not wise in the conceit of your own mind. |
| [17]And do not repay a person evil for evil but it should concern you to do good before the children of men all of them |
[17]And repay to no man evil for evil, but be careful to do good before all men. |
| [18]And if it is possible according to what is from within you with every person peace make |
[18]And if possible, as much as is in you, with all men make peace. |
| [19]And not be you avenging you yourselves beloved but give place to rage is written it for that if not you will execute judgment for yourself I I shall execute your judgment says Alaha |
[19]And avenge not yourselves, my beloved, but give place unto wrath; for it is written, that if thou execute not judgment for thyself, I will execute thy judgment, saith Aloha. |
| [20]And if hungers your enemy feed him and if he thirsts give him drink and if these you do to him coals of fire you will heap on his skull |
[20]And if thy adversary hunger, feed him; and if he thirst, give him drink: and if these things thou do unto him, coals of fire thou wilt heap upon his head. |
| [21]Not be you overcome by evil but overcome evil by good |
[21]Let not evil overcome you, but overcome evil with good. |
