15 [a]This is a [b]true saying, and by all means worthy to be received, that (A)Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16 Notwithstanding for this cause was I received to mercy, that Jesus Christ should first show on me all long suffering unto the ensample of them, which shall in time to come believe in him unto eternal life.
17 [c]Now unto the king everlasting, immortal, invisible, unto God [d]only wise, be honor, and glory, for ever, and ever, Amen.
