But I trust in the Lord Jesus, to send Timothy shortly to you, that I also may be refreshed by knowing your condition;

Him, therefore, I hope to send immediately, as soon as I know how it may go with me.

Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus my brother and companion in labor and fellow-soldier, but your apostle, who also ministered to my want,

I sent him, therefore, the sooner, that, by seeing him again, you might rejoice, and that I might be the less sorrowful.

For even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent once and again to aid me in my need.

Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren that are with me salute you.
