CHAP. III.
1 To shewe his affection towards them, he sendeth Timothie vnto
them: 6 He is so mooued by the report of their prosperous
state, 9 that he cannot giue sufficient thankes, 11 and therefore
he breaketh out into prayer.
1 Wherefore since we coulde no longer forbeare,
wee thought it good to remaine at
Athens alone,
2 noteAnd haue sent Timotheus our brother
and minister of God, and our labour felow in the
Gospel of Christ, to stablish you, and to comfort
you touching your faith,
3 That no man should be moued with these
afflictions: note for ye your selues knowe, that we are
appointed thereunto.
4 For verily when we were with you, we told
you before that we should suffer tribulations, euen
as it came to passe, and ye knowe it.
5 Euen for this cause, when I could no longer
forbeare, I sent him that I might knowe of your

faith and loue, & that ye haue good remembrance

7 Therefore, brethren, we had consolation in
you, in all our affliction and necessitie through
your faith.
8 For nowe are wee note aliue, if ye stand fast in
the Lorde.
9 For what thankes can wee recompense to
God againe for you, for all the ioy wherewith we
reioyce for your sakes before our God,
10 Night and day, note praying exceedingly that
wee might see your face, and might note accomplish
Increase in loue and holinesse.

11 Nowe God himselfe, euen our Father, and
our Lord Iesus Christ, guide our iourney vnto you,
12 noteAnd the Lord increase you, and make you
abound in loue one toward another, and towarde
all men, euen as we doe toward you:
13 noteTo make your hearts stable & vnblameable
in holines before God euen our Father, at the
comming of our Lord Iesus Christ &wt; all his Saints.
