Legacy Standard Bible
6 But now that (A)Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us good news of (B)your faith and love, and that you always (C)remember us kindly, longing to see us just as we also long to see you, 7 for this reason, brothers, in all our distress and affliction we were comforted about you through your faith; 8 for now we really live, if you (D)stand firm in the Lord. 9 For (E)what thanks can we render to God for you in return for all the joy with which we rejoice before our God because of you, 10 as we (F)night and day keep praying most earnestly that we may (G)see your face, and may (H)complete what is lacking in your faith?

1 Thessalonians 3:6-10
New Living Translation
6 But now Timothy has just returned, bringing us good news about your faith and love. He reports that you always remember our visit with joy and that you want to see us as much as we want to see you. 7 So we have been greatly encouraged in the midst of our troubles and suffering, dear brothers and sisters,[a] because you have remained strong in your faith. 8 It gives us new life to know that you are standing firm in the Lord.
9 How we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy as we enter God’s presence. 10 Night and day we pray earnestly for you, asking God to let us see you again to fill the gaps in your faith.
