5 Dear friend, you are faithful in whatever you do for the brothers, especially when they are strangers. 6 They have testified before the church about your love. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God. 7 After all, they went on their trip for the sake of the Name,[a] accepting no support from gentiles. 8 Therefore, we ought to support such people so that we can become genuine helpers with them.
