1 Now [because we] are fellow workers, we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

3 [We are] giving no one an occasion for taking offense in anything, in order that our ministry will not have fault found [with it],

6 in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love without hypocrisy,

6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
