We continually give thanks to God because of you all, while we make mention of you in our prayers.

[because we] remember your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father,

because we know brethren beloved of God, how that ye are elect.

because our good news did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, even as ye have known of what sort we became among you because of you,

And you followed the example set by us and by the Lord, because you welcomed our message with a joy inspired by the Holy Spirit, in spite of the painful persecutions it brought you,

Rather, because we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, we speak as we do, not trying to please people but God, who tests our motives.

Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

Ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail. For we laboured day and night, because we would not be grievous unto any of you, and preached unto you the gospel of God.

For this cause thank we God without ceasing, because that when ye received of us the word, wherewith God was preached, ye received it not as the word of man: but even as it was, indeed, the word of God; which worketh in you that believe.

for ye became imitators, brethren, of the assemblies of God that are in Judea in Christ Jesus, because such things ye suffered, even ye, from your own countrymen, as also they from the Jews,

because they hinder us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. Thus they constantly fill up their measure of sins, but wrath has come upon them completely.

because we wanted to come to you?indeed, I, Paul, once and again?but Satan hindered us.

So that no man might be moved by these troubles; because you see that these things are part of God's purpose for us.

because of this also, I, no longer forbearing, did send to know your faith, lest he who is tempting did tempt you, and in vain might be our labour.

But now, [because] Timothy has come to us from you and has brought good news to us of your faith and love, and that {you always think kindly of us}, desiring to see us just as also we [desire to see] you,

because of this we were comforted, brethren, over you, in all our tribulation and necessity, through your faith,

because now we live, if ye may stand fast in the Lord;

for what thanks are we able to recompense to God for you, for all the joy with which we do joy because of you in the presence of our God?

Because you have in mind the orders we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.

Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.

About brotherly love: You don’t need me to write you because you yourselves are taught by God to love one another.

because the Lord himself, in a shout, in the voice of a chief-messenger, and in the trump of God, shall come down from heaven, and the dead in Christ shall rise first,

But [because] we are of the day, we must be sober, [by] putting on the breastplate of faith and love and [as] a helmet the hope of salvation,

because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

and to esteem them very abundantly in love, because of their work; be at peace among yourselves;

In everything be thankful, because this is God's will for you in the Messiah Jesus.
