Therefore
when we could endure
it no longer,
we thought it best
to be left behind
at Athens
alone,
2
and we sent
Timothy,
our brother
and God's
fellow worker
in the gospel
of Christ,
to strengthen
and encourage
you as to your faith,
3
so that no one
would be disturbed
by these
afflictions;
for you yourselves
know
that we have been destined
for this.
4
For indeed
when
we were with you, we kept telling you in advance
that we were going
to suffer affliction;
and so
it came to pass,
as you know.
5
For this
reason,
when I could endure
it no longer,
I also
sent
to find
out about your faith,
for fear
that the tempter
might have tempted
you, and our labor
would be in vain.
6
But now
that Timothy
has come
to us from you, and has brought us good news
of your faith
and love,
and that you always
think
kindly
of us, longing
to see
us just
as we also
long
to see
you,
7
for this
reason,
brethren,
in all
our distress
and affliction
we were comforted
about
you through
your faith;
8
for now
we really live,
if
you stand firm
in the Lord.
9
For what
thanks
can
we render
to God
for you in return
for all
the joy
with which
we rejoice
before
our God
on your account,
10
as we night
and day
keep praying
most earnestly
that we may see
your face,
and may complete
what is lacking
in your faith?
11
Now
may our God
and Father
Himself
and Jesus
our Lord
direct
our way
to you;
12
and may the Lord
cause
you to increase
and abound
in love
for one another,
and for all people,
just
as we also
do for you;
13
so
that He may establish
your hearts
without blame
in holiness
before
our God
and Father
at the coming
of our Lord
Jesus
with all
His saints.
