²⁵ Brethren, pray for us.

Prayer Requested

^18 (A)Pray for us; for we are confident that we have ^(B)a good conscience, in all things desiring to live honorably. ¹⁹ But I especially urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

²² But, meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, for ^(A)I trust that ^(B)through your prayers I shall be granted to you.

To Live Is Christ

¹⁹ For I know that ^(A)this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

¹¹ you also ^(A)helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on ^[a]our behalf ^(B)for the gift granted to us through many.

Pray for Us

3 Finally, brethren, ^(A)pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, ² and ^(B)that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; ^(C)for not all have faith.

³ But ^(D)the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and ^(E)guard you from the evil one.

^3 (A)meanwhile praying also for us, that God would ^(B)open to us a door for the word, to speak ^(C)the ^[a]mystery of Christ, ^(D)for which I am also in chains,

^18 (A)praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, ^(B)being watchful to this end with all perseverance and ^(C)supplication for all the saints— ¹⁹ and for me, that utterance may be given to me, ^(D)that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰ for which ^(E)I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

³⁰ Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and ^(A)through the love of the Spirit, ^(B)that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,
