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?
