We give praise to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, making prayer for you at all times,

First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.

For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,

Do

And as for me, never will I go against the orders of the Lord by giving up my prayers for you: but I will go on teaching you the good and right way.

So Peter was kept in prison: but the church made strong prayer to God for him.

And in all my prayers for you all, making my request with joy,

Having ever in mind your work of faith and acts of love and the strength of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

Keep on with your prayers.

For this reason, you are ever in our prayers, that you may seem to our God such as may have a part in his purpose and that by his power he will make all his good purpose, and the work of faith, complete;

I give praise to God, whose servant I have been, with a heart free from sin, from the time of my fathers, because in my prayers at all times the thought of you is with me, night and day

I give praise to God at all times and make prayer for you,

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you his love, ever taking thought for you in his prayers, that you may be complete and fully certain of all the purpose of God.

If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from--from God or from myself.

And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.

Testing by experience what is well-pleasing to the Lord;

Not only under your master's eye, as pleasers of men; but as servants of Christ, doing the pleasure of God from the heart;

For, having done what was right in God's eyes, you have need of waiting before his word has effect for you.

Make you full of every good work and ready to do all his desires, working in us whatever is pleasing in his eyes through Jesus Christ; and may the glory be given to him for ever and ever. So be it.

Because it is God's pleasure that foolish and narrow-minded men may be put to shame by your good behaviour:

So that you may give the rest of your lives in the flesh, not to the desires of men, but to the purpose of God.

And the world and its desires is coming to an end: but he who does God's pleasure is living for ever.

Spiritual

And we are certain that the Son of God has come, and has given us a clear vision, so that we may see him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
