³ We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

² We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention `of you' in our prayers;

¹⁵ For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which `ye show' toward all the saints,

³ I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers in a pure conscience, how unceasing is my remembrance of thee in my supplications, night and day

⁹ For this cause we also, since the day we heard `it', do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

⁴ I thank my God always concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;

⁸ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

⁹ For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you, always in my prayers

¹⁶ Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

¹⁷ comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

¹⁰ night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?

¹¹ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way unto you:

¹² and the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we also `do' toward you;

¹³ to the end he may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

¹³ who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;

⁶ In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

⁹ And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment;

¹⁰ so that ye may approve the things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and void of offence unto the day of Christ;

¹¹ being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

³ I thank my God upon all my remembrance of you,

⁴ always in every supplication of mine on behalf of you all making my supplication with joy,

⁵ for your fellowship in furtherance of the gospel from the first day until now;

¹⁴ For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father,

¹⁵ from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,

¹⁶ that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that ye may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;

¹⁷ that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

¹⁸ may be strong to apprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

¹⁹ and to know the love of Christ which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled unto all the fulness of God.
