²⁵ Brethren, pray for us;

³ praying at the same time also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Christ, because of which also I have been bound,

³⁰ And I call upon you, brethren, through our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in the prayers for me unto God,

¹¹ ye working together also for us by your supplication, that the gift through many persons to us, through many may be thankfully acknowledged for us.

¹⁸ through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints --

¹⁹ and in behalf of me, that to me may be given a word in the opening of my mouth, in freedom, to make known the secret of the good news,

²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in a chain, that in it I may speak freely -- as it behoveth me to speak.

¹⁹ For I have known that this shall fall out to me for salvation, through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Christ Jesus,

¹ As to the rest, pray ye, brethren, concerning us, that the word of the Lord may run and may be glorified, as also with you,

² and that we may be delivered from the unreasonable and evil men, for the faith `is' not of all;

³ and stedfast is the Lord, who shall establish you, and shall guard `you' from the evil;

²² and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.

¹⁸ Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, in all things willing to behave well,

¹⁹ and more abundantly do I call upon `you' to do this, that more quickly I may be restored to you.
