¶ The .iii. Chapter. ¶ He sheweth how greatly he was reioysed, wh&ebar; Tymothe tolde him of their fayth ∧ loue.

A   Wherfore, sence we coulde no l&ebar;ger forbeare, we thought it good to remayne at note Athens alone, and sent Timothe oure brother ∧ mynyster of God, and the helper forth of oure laboure in the Gospell of Christ, to stablisshe you: and to conforte you concernyng our fayth note that no man shulde be moued &ibar; these affliccyons, For note ye your selues knowe, that we are euen apoynted there vnto.

For when we were wyth you, we tolde you before, that we shude suffre tribulacyon, euen as it came to passe, and as ye knowe. For this cause when I coulde no lenger forbeare, I sent that I myght haue knowledge of youre fayth, lest by some meanes þe; tempter had tempted you, B   and lest oure laboure had bene bestowed in vayne.

But now lately, when Timothe came fr&obar; you vnto vs, ∧ declared to vs your faith ∧ your loue, ∧ how þt; ye haue good rem&ebar;braunce of vs allwayes, desyrynge to se vs as we also desyre to se you. Therfore brethren we receaued c&obar;solacy&obar; by you, in all our aduersite ∧ necessite, through your fayth. For now are we alyue, yf ye st&abar;de stedfast in the Lorde. For what th&abar;kes can we rec&obar;pence to God agayne for you, ouer al þe; ioye, þt; we ioye for your sakes before our God: pray&ibar;g nyght and daye exceadyngly, þt; we might se you presently, and myght fulfyll the thynges which are lackynge vnto youre fayth.

C   God him selfe oure father, and oure Lorde Iesus Christ shall gyde oure iorney vnto you: the Lord also shall &ibar;creace you ∧ make you flowe ouer in loue one toward another, and towarde all men, euen as we do toward you, that he maye make youre hertes stable ∧ vnblameable, in holynes before God oure father, at the commynge of oure Lorde Iesus Christ with all saynctes.
