63:1 It is right, therefore, that those who have attended to so great and so
many examples should submit their necks, and fill the place of obedience, so
that being at peace from the vain sedition we may attain, without any blame, to
the end set before us in truth.
63:2 For joy and rejoicing will ye afford us if, becoming obedient to the
things that have been written by us, ye put an end, by the suggestion of the
Holy Spirit, to the unlawful wrath of your discord, according to the
supplication which we have made concerning peace and unity in this epistle.
63:3 But we have also sent unto you men who are faithful and prudent, who
from youth up to old age have behaved blamelessly among us, who also will be
witnesses between yourselves and us;
63:4 and this we have done that ye may know that our whole thought has been
and is this, that ye may speedily be at peace among yourselves.
