Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou bast to the Lord Jesus, and to all the holy;

Whom I sent back: and thou him, that is, my bowels, receive again:

For perhaps therefore he was separated for a time, that thou mightest receive him forever;

If therefore thou hold me a participator, receive him in addition as me.

I Paul wrote with my hand, I will pay back: that I say not to thee, for thou owest thyself to me also in addition.

Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote to thee, knowing that thou wilt do above what I say to thee.
