for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands,

Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.

Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

but I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace to you. Our friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
