hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles in order that they may be saved, so that [they] always fill up their sins. But wrath has come upon them to the end.

night and day praying beyond all measure that [we] may see your face and complete what is lacking in your faith?

Now [may] our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus direct our way to you,

and [may] the Lord [cause] you to increase and to abound in love for one another and for all, just as also we [do] for you,

so that your hearts may be established blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

so that you may live decently toward those outside, and may have need of nothing.

Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete, blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
