1 In our work together with God, then, we beg you who have received God's grace not to let it be wasted.

2 Hear what God says: "When the time came for me to show you favor, I heard you; when the day arrived for me to save you, I helped you." Listen! This is the hour to receive God's favor; today is the day to be saved!

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