1 Thes. 3
Wherefore
when
we
could
no
longer
forbear,
we
thought
it
good
to
be
left
at
a
Athens
alone;
2 And
sent
a
Timotheus,
our
brother,
and
minister
of
God,
and
our
fellowlabourer
in
the
gospel
of
Christ,
to
b
establish
you,
and
to
comfort
you
concerning
your
faith:
3 That
no
man
should
be
a
moved
by
these
b
afflictions:
for
yourselves
know
that
we
are
c
appointed
thereunto.
4 For
verily,
when
we
were
with
you,
we
told
you
before
that
we
should
suffer
tribulation;
even
as
it
came
to
pass,
and
ye
know.
5 For
this
cause,
when
I
could
no
longer
forbear,
I
sent
to
know
your
faith,
lest
by
some
means
the
a
tempter
have
b
tempted
you,
and
our
labour
be
in
vain.
6 But
now
when
Timotheus
came
from
you
unto
us,
and
brought
us
good
tidings
of
your
faith
and
charity,
and
that
ye
have
good
remembrance
of
us
always,
desiring
greatly
to
see
us,
as
we
also
to
see
you:
7 Therefore,
brethren,
we
were
a
comforted
over
you
in
all
our
b
affliction
and
distress
by
your
faith:
8 For
now
we
live,
if
ye
stand
fast
in
the
Lord.
9 For
what
thanks
can
we
render
to
God
again
for
you,
for
all
the
a
joy
wherewith
we
joy
for
your
sakes
before
our
God;
10 Night
and
day
praying
exceedingly
that
we
might
see
your
a
face,
and
might
b
perfect
that
which
is
lacking
in
your
faith?
11 Now
God
himself
and
our
Father,
and
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
direct
our
way
unto
you.
12 And
the
Lord
make
you
to
increase
and
a
abound
in
b
love
one
toward
another,
and
toward
all
men,
even
as
we
do
toward
you:
13 To
the
end
he
may
stablish
your
hearts
unblameable
in
holiness
before
God,
even
our
Father,
at
the
a
coming
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
with
all
his
b
saints.
