And not only in the coming of him, but also in the comfort by which he was comforted in you, telling to us your desire, your weeping, your love for me, so that I joyed more.
For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision is anything worth, neither prepuce, but the belief that worketh by charity [or but faith that worketh by charity].
And therefore we from the day in which we heard, cease not to pray for you, and to ask, that ye be filled with the knowing of his will in all wisdom and ghostly understanding;
having mind [or mindful] of the work of your faith, and travail, and charity, and abiding of the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ, before God and our Father.
But now, when Timothy shall come to us from you, and tell to us your faith and charity, and that ye have good mind of us, ever[more] desiring to see us, as we also you;
We owe to do thankings ever-more to God for you, brethren, so as it is worthy, for your faith over-waxeth [or ever-waxeth], and the charity of each of you to other aboundeth.
