so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.

so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.

Then people who are not believers will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others.

so that you may behave properly  in the presence of outsiders and not be dependent on anyone. 

that ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.

Stay calm; mind your own business; do your own job. You’ve heard all this from us before, but a reminder never hurts. We want you living in a way that will command the respect of outsiders, not lying around sponging off your friends.

so that you will behave properly toward outsiders and not be in any need.

so that you will behave properly toward outsiders [exhibiting good character, personal integrity, and moral courage worthy of the respect of the outside world], and be dependent on no one and in need of nothing [be self-supporting].

In this way you will live a decent life before outsiders and not be in need.
