\v 5 Let your conduct be free from the love of money. Be content with the things you have, for God himself has said, "I will never leave you, nor will I forsake you."
\v 6 Let us be content so that we may have courage to say,
\v 9 Do not be carried away by various strange teachings. For it is good that the heart be strengthened by grace, not foods that do not help those who walk by them.
\v 15 Through Jesus let us constantly offer up sacrifices of praise to God, praise that is the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.
\v 16 And let us not forget going good and helping one another, for it is with such sacrifices that God is very pleased.
\v 17 Obey and submit to your leaders, for they keep watch over your souls, as those who will give account. Obey so that your leaders may do this with joy, and not with groaning, which would be useless to you.
\v 20 Now may the God of peace, who brought back from the dead ones the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, by the blood of an eternal covenant,
\v 21 perfect you with every good thing to do his will. May he work in us that which is well pleasing before him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever. Amen.
