4I thankG2168 myG1473 GodG3588G2316, makingG4160 mentionG3417 of theeG4771 alwaysG3842 inG1909 myG1473 prayersG3588G4335, 5HearingG191 of thyG4771 loveG3588G26 andG2532 faithG3588G4102, whichG3739 thou hastG2192 towardG4314 the LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 towardG1519 allG3956 saintsG40; 6ThatG3704 the communicationG3588G2842 of thyG4771 faithG3588G4102 may becomeG1096 effectualG1756 byG1722 the acknowledgingG1922 of everyG3956 good thingG18 which isG3588 inG1722 youG4771 inG1519 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 7ForG1063 we haveG2192 greatG4183 joyG5479 andG2532 consolationG3874 inG1909 thyG4771 loveG3588G26, becauseG3754 the bowelsG3588G4698 of the saintsG3588G40 are refreshedG373 byG1223 theeG4771, brotherG80. 8

WhereforeG1352, though I might beG2192 muchG4183 boldG3954 inG1722 ChristG5547 to enjoinG2004 theeG4771 that which is convenientG433, 9Yet forG1223 love’sG3588G26 sakeG1223 IG3870 ratherG3123 beseechG3870 thee, beingG1510 such an oneG5108 asG5613 PaulG3972 the agedG4246, andG1161 nowG3570 alsoG2532 a prisonerG1198 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
