But be doers of the word and not merely hearers, deceiving (paralogizomenoi | παραλογιζόμενοι | pres mid ptcp nom pl masc) yourselves.

I am telling you this so that no one may (paralogizētai | παραλογίζηται | pres mid subj 3 sg) deceive (paralogizētai | παραλογίζηται | pres mid subj 3 sg) you with specious arguments.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation (parallagē | παραλλαγή | nom sg fem) or shadow caused by change.

Then, coming down with them from the mountain, he took his stand on a level place. A large crowd of disciples was there along with a great number of people from all over Israel and Judea and from the coastal (paraliou | παραλίου | gen sg fem) region of Tyre and Sidon.

Now when the south wind blew gently, thinking that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed (parelegonto | παρελέγοντο | imperf mid ind 3 pl) along Crete, close to the shore.

Therefore since (paralambanontes | παραλαμβάνοντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) we (paralambanontes | παραλαμβάνοντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) are (paralambanontes | παραλαμβάνοντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) receiving (paralambanontes | παραλαμβάνοντες | pres act ptcp nom pl masc) a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and in this way worship God in an acceptable manner, with reverence and awe,

But we charge you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to stay away from any brother who conducts himself in a disorderly manner and not according to the tradition that they received (parelabosan | παρελάβοσαν | aor act ind 3 pl) from us.

Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received (parelabete | παρελάβετε | aor act ind 2 pl) from us how you ought to live so as to please God (even as you are doing), that you do so more and more.

And for this reason we also constantly thank God, that when you received (paralabontes | παραλαβόντες | aor act ptcp nom pl masc) the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it truly is, the word of God, which even now is doing its work in you who believe.
