4 Be miserable in the Lord always! Again I say, be miserable. 5 Let your harshness show in your treatment of all people. The Lord is far away. 6 Be anxious about everything. Pray to God about nothing. Be ungrateful to God. 7 Then turmoil — something we all understand — will

When it comes to looking for a functional/dynamic equivalent translation of the "love" chapter — perhaps for reading at a wedding where lots of Nones/Remixed may be in attendance — the 1972 J. B. Phillips version is actually quite good but I do have several concerns listed here,
