Und nun, Kindlein, bleibet bei ihm, auf daß, wenn er offenbart wird, wir Freudigkeit haben und nicht zu Schanden werden vor ihm bei seiner Zukunft.
Y ahora, hijitos, perseverad en Él; para que cuando apareciere, tengamos confianza, y no seamos confundidos de Él en su venida.
Et maintenant, petits enfants, demeurez en lui, afin que, lorsqu'il paraîtra, nous ayons de l'assurance, et qu'à son avènement nous ne soyons pas confus et éloignés de lui.
Ora dunque, figlioletti, dimorate in lui, acciocchè, quando egli sarà apparito, abbiam confidanza, e non siamo confusi per la sua presenza, nel suo avvenimento.
E agora, filhinhos, permanecei nele; para que, quando ele se manifestar, tenhamos confiança, e não sejamos confundidos por ele na sua vinda.
孩子們哪,你們要住在基督裏面。這樣,他若顯現,我們就可以坦然無懼;當他來臨的時候,在他面前不至於慚愧。
