Colossians 4:4

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

That I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.

See the chapter Copy

For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.

Let your speech be always in grace seasoned with salt: that you may know how you ought to answer every man.

Having therefore such hope, we use much confidence:

But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men.

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant unto thy servants, that with all confidence they may speak thy word,

Walk with wisdom towards them that are without, redeeming the time.
