Disobedient Brothers

(A)Finally, brothers, (B)pray for us that (C)the word of the Lord will [a]spread rapidly and be glorified, just as it did also with you; and that we will be (D)rescued from [b]perverse and evil men, for not all have [c]faith. But (E)the Lord is faithful, who will strengthen and guard you [d]from (F)the evil one. And we have (G)confidence in the Lord about you, that you (H)are doing and will continue to do what we command. And may the Lord (I)direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.
