Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. |
We must pay much closer attention to what we have heard lest we drift away from it. |
For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. |
|
We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. |
Since all this is true, we ought to pay much closer attention than ever to the truths that we have heard, lest in any way we drift past [them] and slip away. |
On this account it is a necessity in the nature of the case for us to give heed more abundantly to the things which we have heard lest at any time we should drift past them. |
|
We ought therefore, to pay the greatest attention to the truth that we have heard and not allow ourselves to drift away from it. |
This is why we must pay much closer attention to the message once heard, to keep from drifting to one side. |
