For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
A servant who acts wisely will rule over a son who acts shamefully,
And will share in the inheritance among brothers.
He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous,
Both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.
The first to plead his case seems right,
Until another comes and examines him.
For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord.
You are already filled, you have already become rich, you have become kings without us; and indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you. For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men. We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are prudent in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are distinguished, but we are without honor. To this present hour we are both hungry and thirsty, and are poorly clothed, and are roughly treated, and are homeless; and we toil, working with our own hands; when we are reviled, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure; when we are slandered, we try to conciliate; we have become as the scum of the world, the dregs of all things, even until now.
