For I have given you an example – you should do just as I have done for you.
Take my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Now may the God of endurance and comfort give you unity with one another in accordance with Christ Jesus,
and live in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave himself for us, a sacrificial and fragrant offering to God.
For to this you were called, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving an example for you to follow in his steps.
And do not lord it over those entrusted to you, but be examples to the flock.
The one who says he resides in God ought himself to walk just as Jesus walked.
