Give

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is celebrated through the whole world.

I continually give thanks to God on your behalf, for the favour he has bestowed on you thro' Jesus Christ;

Wherefore having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and of your love to all christians,

I thank God, for your remembrance of me,

the Lord is coming: be not in any manner of sollicitude, but in all your occasions lay your requests before God by prayer and supplication accompany'd by thanksgiving.

We always mention you in our prayers, and give thanks to God for you all:

Praying

For this cause, ever since we heard of it, we incessantly pray for you, requesting that you may be endued with respect to the knowledge of his will, with all wisdom and spiritual discernment:

for this cause I bow my knees unto the father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

and the favour I ask of him is this, that your kindness to me may be crown'd with farther improvements in knowledge and all prudence;

whilst night and day we make our ardent requests to him, that we may once more be present with you, that nothing may be wanting to the perfection of your faith?

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ, and God our father, who has loved us, and by his favour given us the advantageous hopes of eternal joys, consolate your souls,

When I remember you, as I continually do in my prayers night and day, I give thanks to God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, after the example of my fore-fathers.
