But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your yes be yes, and your no, no, so that you may not fall under judgment.
If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you will not come together for judgment. The remaining matters I will direct when I come.
Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.
Know this, my beloved brothers. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger;
Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.
