And I pray that your love may grow stronger and stronger, [along] with how much you know, and [that you may grow] in your ability to comprehend things.

But you people know about his proven reliability, how he served with me in advancing [the work of] the Gospel just like a son working with his father.

So, I hope to send him [to you] as soon as I see how things will go with me.

I know how to get along in humble circumstances and how to live in prosperity. In every situation and in all circumstances, I have learned the secret both to be full and to be hungry, both to have plenty and to be in need.
