Unceasingly, remembering - your work of faith and labour of love and endurance of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father:

But, when, just now, Timothy came unto us, from you, and brought us good tidings of your faith and love, - and that ye have good remembrance of us, continually, longing to see, us, - even as, we also, to see you,

Because, now, we live, - if only, ye, stand fast in the Lord.

And, you, may the Lord cause to abound and excel in your love one toward another, and toward all, - even as, we, do toward you:

But, concerning brotherly love - no need, have ye, that we be writing unto you; for, ye yourselves, are, God-taught, to the loving of one another; -

But, we, being of the day, let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and, for helmet, the hope of salvation.

Who died for us, in order that, whether we be watching or sleeping, together with him, we should live.

And to hold them in very high esteem, in love, their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves,
