| Bible in Basic English (BBE) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 17 And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth: | 17 Since you call on a Father who judges each man's work impartially, live your lives as strangers here in reverent fear. |
