New American 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)think kindly of us, longing to see us just as we also long to see you, 7 for this reason, brothers and sisters, 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 give to God for you in return for all the joy with which we rejoice because of you before our God, 10 as we (F)keep praying most earnestly night and day that we may (G)see your faces, and may (H)complete what is lacking in your faith?
