For this cause we also, since the day we heard, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,

that you might walk worthy of the Lord to all pleasing, being fruitful in every work and increasing in the knowledge of God,

being empowered with all power, according to the might of His glory, to all patience and long-suffering with joyfulness,

that their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of the understanding, to the full knowledge of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

I sent him to you for this very purpose, that he might know the things about you, and that he might comfort your hearts,
