12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
12 Basi, wapendwa wangu, kama vile mlivyotii sikuzote, si wakati mimi nilipokuwapo tu, bali sasa zaidi sana mimi nisipokuwapo, utimizeni wokovu wenu wenyewe kwa kuogopa na kutetemeka.
