1 Thessalonians 3:1-4
1ThereforeG1352, 1when we could noG3371 longerG3371 endureG4722 it, we thoughtG2106 itG2106 bestG2106 to be leftG2641 behindG2641, aloneG3441 at 2AthensG116,
2and we sentG3992 3TimothyG5095, our brotherG80 and God’sG2316 fellowG4904 workerG4904 in the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, to strengthenG4741 and encourageG3870 you forG5228 theG5228 benefitG5228 of your faithG4102,
3so that noG3367 oneG3367 would be 4disturbedG4525 by theseG3778 afflictionsG2347. For you yourselvesG846 knowG3609 that 5we have been destinedG2749 for thisG3778.
4For evenG2532 whenG3753 we were with you, we kept tellingG4302 you inG4302 advanceG4302 that we wereG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 sufferG2346 afflictionG2346; 67and soG2531 it happenedG1096, 8as you knowG3609.
