as it is right for me the these to think about you (PL) all, because I bear you (PL) in my heart, and all are you (PL) participants with me in the grace and in my chains, in the defense and in the confirmation of the News Good.
therefore shall you (SG) you not to be ashamed with the witness say of our L-rd, and also not with me, his prisoner; but bear the suffering for the News Good according to the power of Hashem,
prayer doing the same time also for us, that Hashem shall open a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Moshiach, on account of whom I am also chained;
the L-rd however did stand by me, and did me strengthen, so that the News Good may fully known be through me, and all nations (of the world) may it hear; and I was saved become from the lion's mouth.
lead a good life among the nations (of the world), so that in that, in which they speak up of you (PL) as of unrighteous, yet, seeing your (PL) deeds good, shall they give glory to Hashem in the Day of Reckoning.
on account of that cause suffer I actually the these things; yet ashamed I myself not; because I know in whom I have believe, and have myself convinced, that He is able to keep my deposit until to that Day.
have a good conscience, so that in what one speaks up about you (PL), should put to shame be those, who insult your good conduct of life in the Moshiach.
for from you (PL) is the word of the L-rd gone out not only to Macedonia and Achaia, but on every place has itself your faith to Hashem spread, so, that we need nothing speak of it.
