38:1 Let, therefore, our whole body be saved in Christ Jesus, and let each be
subject to his neighbour, according to the gift which he hath received.
38:2 Let not the strong man despise the weak, and let the weak pay regard to
the strong. Let him that is rich minister to him that is poor.
2
Let him that is
poor praise God that he hath given unto him one by whom his want may be
supplied. Let the wise show his wisdom, not in words, but in good deeds; let him
that is humble not bear witness to himself, but leave another to bear witness to
him.
3
Let him that is pure in the flesh boast not of it, knowing that it is
another that giveth him the power of continence.
38:3 Let us consider, brethren, of what matter we are made, of what sort and
who we are that have come into the world, as it were out of the tomb and
darkness. He that made and fashioned us hath brought us into this world, having
prepared beforehand his benefactions, even before we were born.
38:4 Having, therefore, all these things from him, we ought in all respects
to give thanks unto him, to whom be glory world without end.
4
Amen.
