answered, We have no king but Caesar.

Being
defamed, we intreat: we are made as the
filth of the world, and are the
offscouring of all things unto this day.
when we are
slandered, we
answer gently. Up to this moment we have become the
scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,
Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons
thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give
thanks on our behalf for the favor shown us in
answer to their prayers.
For we
commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to
answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.
We are not
commending ourselves to you again. Instead, we are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you can
answer those who take pride in appearances rather than in the heart.

alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to
answer every man.

gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to
answer everyone.
At my first
answer no man stood with me, but all men
forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge.
At my first
defense, no one stood with me, but
everyone deserted me. May it not be charged against them.
Exhort servants to be
obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not
answering again;
Slaves are to submit to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not
argumentative,
But
sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an
answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with
meekness and fear:
But in your hearts
sanctify Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give a
defense to
everyone who asks you the reason for the hope that is in you. But
respond with gentleness and respect,
The like figure
whereunto even baptism
doth also now save us (not the putting away of the
filth of the flesh, but the
answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of
dirt from the body, but the
pledge of a clear conscience toward God—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

immortal, and have

shew thee three ways, and to set forth three similitudes before thee:

wherethrough thou hast passed, and of things from which thou canst not be separated, and yet canst thou give me no
answer of them.
He answered me, and said, I went into a forest into a plain, and the trees took counsel,

answered he me, and said, Thou hast given a right judgment, but why judgest thou not
thyself also?

answered he me, and said, The more thou searchest, the more thou shalt
marvel; for the world hasteth fast to pass away,
Then I answered and said, How, and when shall these things come to pass? wherefore are our years few and evil?
And he
answered me, saying, Do not thou
hasten above the most Highest: for thy
haste is in vain to be above him, for thou hast much exceeded.

answered me, and said, As for the
tokens whereof thou askest me, I may tell thee of them in part: but as touching thy life, I am not sent to
shew thee; for I do not know it.
So I
answered and said, Couldest thou not make those that have been made, and be now, and that are for to come, at once; that thou mightest
shew thy judgment the sooner?
Then
answered he me, and said, The creature may not
haste above the maker; neither may the world hold them at once that shall be created therein.
