BBE

NIV

7 But the end of all things is near: so be serious in your behaviour and keep on the watch with prayer;
7 The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray.
8 And most of all be warm in your love for one another; because in love there is forgiveness for sins without number:
8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
9 Keep open house for all with a glad heart;
9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.
10 Making distribution among one another of whatever has been given to you, like true servants of the unmeasured grace of God;
10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.
11 If anyone has anything to say, let it be as the words of God; if anyone has the desire to be the servant of others, let him do it in the strength which is given by God; so that in all things God may have the glory through Jesus Christ, whose are the glory and the power for ever.
11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
