5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever [a]work you do for the (A)brothers, and are doing this though they are (B)strangers; 6 and they bore witness to your love before the church. You will do well to (C)send them on their way in a manner (D)worthy of God. 7 For they went out for the sake of (E)the Name, (F)receiving nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to [b]support such men, so that we may [c]be fellow workers [d]with the truth.
