1|Thes.|3:1|-|Therefore when we could |a|bear it no longer, we thought it good to be left in |1b|Athens alone,
1|Thes.|3:2|-|And we sent |a|Timothy, our brother and |1|God’s fellow worker in the gospel of Christ, to |b|establish and |2|encourage you for the sake of your |c|faith,
1|Thes.|3:3|-|That no one would be |1|shaken by these |a|afflictions; for you yourselves know that we are |2b|appointed for this.
1|Thes.|3:4|-|For even when we were with you, we |1|told you beforehand that we are to be afflicted, even as it also came to pass and you know.
1|Thes.|3:5|-|Because of this, when I also could |a|bear it no longer, I sent to find out concerning your |b|faith, lest perhaps the |1c|tempter had tempted you and our labor would be |2d|in vain.
1|Thes.|3:6|-|But |a|Timothy, having just come |1|to us from you and announcing the good news to us of your |b|faith and love and that you have kind |c|remembrance of us always and |d|long to see us, just as we also you,
1|Thes.|3:7|-|Because of this we were |1a|comforted because of you, brothers, in all our |2|necessity and affliction, through your |b|faith;
1|Thes.|3:8|-|Because now we |1|live if you |2a|stand firm in the Lord.
1|Thes.|3:9|-|For what |a|thanks can we return to God concerning you for all the joy with which we rejoice because of you before our God,
1|Thes.|3:10|-|Night and day petitioning exceedingly so that we may |a|see your face and |1|complete the things that are lacking in your |b|faith?
1|Thes.|3:11|-|Now may our God and Father Himself and our Lord Jesus |1a|make straight our path to you;
1|Thes.|3:12|-|And the Lord cause you to increase and |a|abound in |1b|love to |c|one another and to all, just as we also to you,
1|Thes.|3:13|-||1|So that He may |a|establish your |2|hearts |b|blameless in |3c|holiness before our God and Father at the |4d|coming of our Lord Jesus |e|with all His |5|saints. |6|
