- But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you shortly, so that I also may be encouraged when I learn of your condition.
- For I have no one else of kindred spirit who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare.
- For they all seek after their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus.
- But you know of his proven worth, that he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel like a child serving his father.
- Therefore I hope to send him immediately, as soon as I see how things go with me;
|
- and I trust in the Lord that I myself also will be coming shortly.
- But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my need;
- because he was longing for you all and was distressed because you had heard that he was sick.
- For indeed he was sick to the point of death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only but also on me, so that I would not have sorrow upon sorrow.
- Therefore I have sent him all the more eagerly so that when you see him again you may rejoice and I may be less concerned about you.
|
- Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold men like him in high regard;
- because he came close to death for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete what was deficient in your service to me.
