1 ^zBe imitators of me, as I am of Christ.

17 Brothers, ^ujoin in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk ^vaccording to the example you have in us.

6 And ^pyou became imitators of us ^qand of the Lord, for ^ryou received the word in much affliction, ^swith the ^tjoy of the Holy Spirit,

9 What you have learned¹ and ^wreceived and heard and seen ^xin me—practice these things, and ^ythe God of peace will be with you.

9 It was ^znot because we do not have that right, but to give you in ourselves ^aan example to imitate.
