And I was glad when Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus arrived [here in Ephesus], for they have provided [me] with what you were not able to.
because he almost died for the work of Christ, risking his life to provide me with what you were not able to.
And when I was there with you and in need, I was not a [financial] burden to anyone, for when the brothers came from Macedonia they provided me with what I lacked, so I kept myself from being a burden to you in every way and will continue to do so.
I really wanted to keep him [here] with me so that, on your behalf, he could minister to me while in prison for the sake of the Gospel.
(Oh, yes, I also immersed the family of Stephanas. Besides these, I do not remember immersing anyone else).
But God, who comforts downhearted people, comforted us [also] by the arrival of Titus.
