For every man who contendeth from every thing (besides with) holdeth his mind; and they who run (do it) that they may receive a crown that is corruptible, but we one that is incorruptible.

but my body I subdue and make subservient, lest when to others I shall have preached, I my very self shall be rejected.

BUT I would that you know, my brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud,

4 for they drank of that spiritual Rock [fn] which went with them,-but that Rock was the Meshiha himself.

But not with many of them was Aloha pleased; for they fell in the desert.

But these became an example for us; that we should not desire evils, as they desired;

Temptation cometh not (upon) you but what cometh on mankind; but faithful is Aloha, who will not permit you to be tempted more than you are able, but will make to your temptation a departure, that you may be able to endure.

No: but that which the Heathens sacrifice, unto demons they sacrifice, and not unto Aloha. But I would not that you be participators with demons!

Every thing is lawful for me, but every thing is not expedient; every thing is lawful, but every thing doth not edify.

Let no man seek his own (only), but every man also (the profit) of his neighbour.

But if a man of the Heathens invite you, and you be willing to go, whatever is set before you eat, without inquiry on account of conscience.

But, if one tell you, This is of a sacrifice, eat not, for his sake who hath told you, and on account of conscience;

but I say, the conscience, not yours, but his who told you. But why is my liberty to be ruled by the conscience of others ?

But if I use (these things) by grace, why am I calumniated concerning that for which I give thanks?

As also I in every thing please all men, not seeking what is expedient for myself, but what is expedient for the many, that they may be saved.

But I commend you, my brethren, that in every thing you remember me; and that as I have delivered to you precepts, you hold them.

But I would that you know that the Meshiha is the head of every man; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of the Meshiha is Aloha.

For if a woman be not covered, let her be shorn; but if it be shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

For a man is not obligated to cover his head, because he is the likeness and the glory of Aloha; but woman is the glory of man.

For the man is not from woman, but the woman is from man.
