Kaya nga, mga minamahal ko, kung paano ang inyong laging pagsunod, na hindi lamang sa harapan ko, kundi bagkus pa ngayong ako'y wala, ay lubusin ninyo ang gawain ng inyong sariling pagkaligtas na may takot at panginginig;
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
