1 propter quod non sustinentes amplius placuit nobis remanere Athenis solis
1
Wherefore, when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left at Athens alone;
2 et misimus Timotheum fratrem nostrum et ministrum Dei in evangelio Christi ad confirmandos vos et exhortandos pro fide vestra
2
And sent Timothy, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellow-laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith:
3 ut nemo moveatur in tribulationibus istis ipsi enim scitis quod in hoc positi sumus
3
That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed to it.
4 nam et cum apud vos essemus praedicebamus vobis passuros nos tribulationes sicut et factum est et scitis
4
For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.
5 propterea et ego amplius non sustinens misi ad cognoscendam fidem vestram ne forte temptaverit vos is qui temptat et inanis fiat labor noster
5
For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter may have tempted you, and our labor be in vain.
6 nunc autem veniente Timotheo ad nos a vobis et adnuntiante nobis fidem et caritatem vestram et quia memoriam nostri habetis bonam semper desiderantes nos videre sicut nos quoque vos
6
But now when Timothy came from you to us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also [to see] you:
7 ideo consolati sumus fratres in vobis in omni necessitate et tribulatione nostra per vestram fidem
7
Therefore, brethren, by your faith we were comforted over you in all our affliction and distress:
8 quoniam nunc vivimus si vos statis in Domino
8
For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
9 quam enim gratiarum actionem possumus Deo retribuere pro vobis in omni gaudio quo gaudemus propter vos ante Deum nostrum
9
For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sakes before our God;
10 nocte et die abundantius orantes ut videamus faciem vestram et conpleamus ea quae desunt fidei vestrae
10
Night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
11 ipse autem Deus et Pater noster et Dominus Iesus dirigat viam nostram ad vos
11
Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you.
12 vos autem Dominus multiplicet et abundare faciat caritatem in invicem et in omnes quemadmodum et nos in vobis
12
And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one towards another, and towards all [men], even as we [do] towards you:
13 ad confirmanda corda vestra sine querella in sanctitate ante Deum et Patrem nostrum in adventu Domini nostri Iesu cum omnibus sanctis eius amen
13
To the end he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
