You2f therefore, beloved, seeing you2f know [these things] before, beware lest you2f also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
Beware lest any man spoil (plunder; prey; booty) you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Moshiach [Messiah].
That we [from this time forth (from now on)] be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery (entrapment by deceit) of men, [and] cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you2f stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord - Kurios, forasmuch as you2f know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord - Kurios.
For they that are such serve not our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the harmless.
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Khav’vah [Eve] (to breath, to live) through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Moshiach [Messiah].
And Yeshua [God is Salvation] said to them, “Watch out and beware of the leaven of the P’rushim (Pharisees) [separatists] and Tz’dukim (Sadducees) [followers of the right].”
Remember therefore from what place youi are fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto youi quickly, and will remove youri candlestick out of his place, except youi repent.
For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the Spirit [Ruach], joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Moshiach [Messiah].
But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, you2f may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.
