7. But we pray to God that ye may do nothing evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do what is right, and we be as reprobates.
8. For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
9. For we rejoice when we may be weak and ye may be powerful. But this also we pray for, your perfecting.
