17 So that if anyone is in Moshiach, he is a bria chadasha* (a new being): the old things passed away; hinei, all has become chadashot.*

10 Make me to hear sasson and simchah;

that the atzmot which Thou hast broken may rejoice.

11 Hide Thy face from my chatta’im,

and blot out all mine avonot.

12 Bara* in me a lev tahor, O Elohim;

and renew a ruach nekhon (steadfast spirit)* within me.

1 I appeal to you, therefore, Achim b’Moshiach, through the rachamei Hashem (mercies of G-d), to present your geviyah,* all of your being, as a korban chai (living sacrifice), kadosh (holy) and acceptable to Hashem,* which is your spiritual avodas kodesh service. 2 Stop allowing yourself to be conformed to the Olam Hazeh, but be transformed by your hitkhadshut (regeneration, renewal) of your mind, so that you may ascertain what is the ratzon Hashem (the will of G-d), what is the good, acceptable, and perfect will of G-d.

20 But it is no longer Anochi (I) who lives, but Moshiach who lives in me, and the Chayyim I now live in the basar, I live by emunah, emunah in the Zun fun der Oybershter,* the one having ahavah (agape) for me and having given himself over, on my behalf.

9 If we make vidduy (confession of sin) of chattoteinu (our sins), he is ne’eman (faithful) and tzaddik to grant selicha (forgiveness) of chattoteinu (our sins) and give us tohorah (purification, cleansing) from kol avon.*

11 For I know the machshavot (thoughts, plans) that I think toward you, saith Hashem, machshavot shalom, and not of ra’ah, to give you an acharit (future) and a tikvah (hope).

6 Be anxious in nothing,* but in everything by tefillah and by techinnah (supplication) with hodayah (thanksgiving), let your requests be made known before Hashem, 7 And the shalom Hashem,* surpassing all binah (understanding), will guard your levavot and your machshavot (thoughts) in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua.

15 Do your best to shtel zich (apply yourself), to present yourself to Hashem as one approved, a po’el (workman) without bushah (shame), keeping on a derech yashar the Dvar HaEmes.

6 Be strong and of good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of their faces; for Hashem Eloheicha, He it is that doth go with thee; He will not fail thee, nor abandon thee.

13 You are the melach haaretz (salt of the earth), but if the salt becomes tasteless, in what way will it become salty again? It is no longer good for anything, but is thrown out and trampled by men.

29 Let no lashon hora proceed out of your peh, but only a dvar that is tov, for edification in accordance with the need, that it may mediate Chen v’Chesed Hashem to the ones hearing.

16 Therefore we are undaunted and do not lose chozek (strength). For, indeed, even if our outward man is becoming old and atrophied, yet our inward man is yom yom being renewed.* 17 For our present momentary tzoros is preparing us for an eternal weight of kavod (glory) utterly beyond measure,* 18 While we continue to look not at the visible things but the invisible;* for the things visible are zemanniyim (temporary) but the things invisible are for l’olamim.
