Now for a recompense in like kind (I speak as unto {\i my} children), be ye also enlarged.\par
Greater joy have I none than this, to hear of my children walking in truth.\par
{\i My} little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.
{\i My} little children, let no man lead you astray: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous:
My little children, these things write I unto you that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
as ye know how we {\i dealt with} each one of you, as a father with his own children,
I beseech you, brethren, become as I {\i am}, for I also {\i am become} as ye {\i are}. Ye did me no wrong:
Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
I am Jehovah thy God,\par\tab Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt:\par\tab Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
My children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you—
I will run the way of thy commandments,\par\tab When thou shalt enlarge my heart.\par
