So, I say to you, joy is in heaven before the messengers of God for one sinful changing the mind.
I say to you, that so shall joy be in heaven over one sinful repenting, more than over ninety-nine just, which have no need of repentance.
For my witness is God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, so that continually I make mention of you, always supplicating in my prayers;
Fill ye up my joy, that ye may have the same in mind, having the same love, unanimous, being one in mind.
(For many walk, of whom I said to you often, and now also say weeping, the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Therefore, my brethren, dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, thus stand ye in the Lord, dearly beloved.
For if also I am away in the flesh but in the Spirit am I with you, rejoicing and seeing your order, and the firmness of your faith in Christ.
We return thanks to God always for you all, making remembrance of you in our prayers continually;
For we have much grace and consolation upon thy love, for the bowels of the holy are refreshed by thee, brother.
I was greatly rejoiced that I found of thy children walking about in the truth, as we received a command from the Father.
