For this is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God for which you also suffer,

Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of the calling and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power,

Finally, my brothers, pray for us, that the Word of the Lord may have free course and be glorified, even as it also is with you.
