11 Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
14 And we urge you, brothers, admonish pthe idle,1 qencourage the fainthearted, rhelp the weak, sbe patient with them all.
11 For vI long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you— 12 that is, that we may be mutually encouraged wby each other’s faith, both yours and mine.
14 aI am under obligation both to Greeks and to bbarbarians,1 both to the wise and to the foolish.
Greeting
1 Paul, aa servant1 of Christ Jesus, bcalled to be an apostle, cset apart for the gospel of God,
16 dThe Lord roars from Zion,
and dutters his voice from Jerusalem,
eand the heavens and the earth quake.
But the Lord is fa refuge to his people,
a stronghold to the people of Israel.
The Glorious Future of Judah
17 g“So you shall know that I am the Lord your God,
hwho dwells in Zion, imy holy mountain.
And Jerusalem shall be holy,
and jstrangers shall never again pass through it.
18 “And in that day
kthe mountains shall drip sweet wine,
and the hills shall flow with milk,
and lall the streambeds of Judah
shall flow with water;
mand a fountain shall come forth from the house of the Lord
and water the Valley of nShittim.
10 So then, gas we have opportunity, let us hdo good to everyone, and especially to those who are iof the household of faith.
