11
We therefore remember you constantly on every occasion, both in our feasts and on other appropriate days, at the sacrifices which we offer and in our prayers, as it is right and proper to remember brethren.
13
But as for ourselves, many afflictions and many wars have encircled us; the kings round about us have waged war against us.
14
We were unwilling to annoy you and our other allies and friends with these wars,
15
for we have the help which comes from Heaven for our aid; and we were delivered from our enemies and our enemies were humbled.
