  13 But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

  14 to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

  15 So then, brothers, stand firm and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word or by letter.

  16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

  17 comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

  1 Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may spread rapidly and be glorified, even as also with you,

  2 and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for not all have faith.

  3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

  4 We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you both do and will do the things we command.

  5 May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love, and into the perseverance of Christ.

  47 Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

  48 So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.

  49 Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,

  50 that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

  51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.

  52 Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”

  53 As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him;

  54 lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.

  1 Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
