Final Greetings
22 I appeal to you, brothers,2 bear with my word of exhortation, for kI have written to you briefly.
22 But be ndoers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25 But the one who looks into the perfect law, othe law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, phe will be blessed in his doing.
22 and mwhatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and ndo what pleases him.
