For I testify for him that he has worked hard for you and for those in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.

For, as I can testify, they voluntarily gave according to their means and even beyond their means,
For I want you to know how greatly I strive for you and for those in Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face.
