This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
2:13 Keep hold of the truth
13 But brothers and sisters, we here should always be thanking God for you who were loved by Yahweh. From the beginning God chose you for salvation in the holiness of the spirit and faith in the truth 14 which he called you to. That was through the good message that we brought so that you might obtain the power that comes from our master Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) Messiah. 15 So as a result, brothers and sisters, stand firm and keep hold of the practices that we taught you—whether it was spoken or written in our letters.
16 May our master Messiah Yeshua and God our father who loved us and gives us eternal comfort, and by his grace gives good hope, 17 comfort your minds and strengthen you all in everything you do and every good message you share.
