17But you, my dearly beloved, be mindful of the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:

20But you, my beloved, building yourselves upon your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

21Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, unto life everlasting.

22And some indeed reprove, being judged:

23But others save, pulling them out of the fire. And on others have mercy, in fear, hating also the spotted garment which is carnal.

24Now to him who is able to preserve you without sin and to present you spotless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, in the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

25To the only God our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory and magnificence, empire and power, before all ages, and now, and for all ages of ages. Amen.

2O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day. For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways!

3In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.

4For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips will praise.

5Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands.

6Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.

16Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly: in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God.

17All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

27And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.

28And they say to him: By what authority dost thou these things? And who hath given thee this authority that thou shouldst do these things?

29And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one word. And answer you me: and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

30The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.

31But they thought with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not believe him?

32If we say, From men, we fear the people. For all men counted John that he was a prophet indeed.

33And they answering, say to Jesus: We know not. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
