Timothy's Visit
Wherefore, being no longer able to refrain ourselves, we thought good to be left alone in Athens,
Wherefore, being no longer able to refrain ourselves, we thought good to be left alone in Athens,
Encouragement of Timothy’s Visit
Therefore when we could endure it no longer, we thought it best to be left behind at Athens alone,
Therefore when we could endure it no longer, we thought it best to be left behind at Athens alone,
and sent Timotheus, our brother and fellow-workman under God in the glad tidings of Christ, to confirm you and encourage [you] concerning your faith,
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,
that no one might be moved by these afflictions. (For yourselves know that we are set for this;
so that no one would be disturbed by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we have been destined for this.
for also, when we were with you, we told you beforehand we are about to be in tribulation, even as also it came to pass, and ye know.)
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.
For this reason *I* also, no longer able to refrain myself, sent to know your faith, lest perhaps the tempter had tempted you and our labour should be come to nothing.
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.
Timothy's Encouraging Report
But Timotheus having just come to us from you, and brought to us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have always good remembrance of us, desiring much to see us, even as we also you;
But Timotheus having just come to us from you, and brought to us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have always good remembrance of us, desiring much to see us, even as we also you;
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,
for this reason we have been comforted in you, brethren, in all our distress and tribulation, through your faith,
for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we were comforted about you through your faith;
because now we live if *ye* stand firm in [the] Lord.
for now we really live, if you stand firm in the Lord.
For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy wherewith we rejoice on account of you before our God,
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,
night and day beseeching exceedingly to the end that we may see your face, and perfect what is lacking in your faith?
as we night and day keep praying most earnestly that we may see your face, and may complete what is lacking in your faith?
But our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.
Now may our God and Father Himself and Jesus our Lord direct our way to you;
But you, may the Lord make to exceed and abound in love toward one another, and toward all, even as we also towards you,
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;
