Beloved, while I was giving all diligence to write unto you of our common salvation, I was constrained to write unto you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints.
Moost dere briþeren, Y doynge al bisynesse to write to you of youre comyn helþe, hadde nede to write to you, and preye to striue strongli for þe feith þat is onys takun to seyntis.
