17. And if I am even offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
18. For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
19. But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly to you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
20. For I have no man like-minded, who will naturally care for your state.
21. For all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
22. But ye know the proof of him, that as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.
