I beseech you therefore, be ye imitators of me.
Be ye imitators of me, as I also of Christ.
Be ye imitators together of me, brethren, and observe narrowly those walking thus, as ye have us for a type.
And what things ye learned, and received, and heard, and saw in me, these do; and the God of peace shall be with you.
And ye were imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much pressure, with joy of the Holy Spirit:
Not that we have not power, but that we give ourselves a type to you to imitate us.
Remember them guiding you, who spake to you the word of God: of whom, observing narrowly the issue of the mode of life, imitate the faith:
Neither as ruling over the portions obtained by lot, but being types of the flock.
