Colossians 4:4

Bible in Basic English 1965

So that I may make it clear, as it is right for me to do.

See the chapter Copy

And now, Lord, take note of their cruel words, and give your servants power to be preachers of your word without fear,

But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said, We have to do the orders of God, not of man.

Having then such a hope, we keep nothing back,

For which I am a representative in chains, and that I may say without fear the things which it is right for me to say.

Be wise in your behaviour to those who are outside, making good use of the time.

Let your talk be with grace, mixed with salt, so that you may be able to give an answer to everyone.
