5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the (A)brothers and sisters, and [a]especially when they are (B)strangers; 6 and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to [b](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)accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to [c]support such people, so that we may [d]prove to be fellow workers [e]with the truth.

Revised Standard Version
5 Beloved, it is a loyal thing you do when you render any service to the brethren, especially to strangers, 6 who have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey as befits God’s service. 7 For they have set out for his sake and have accepted nothing from the heathen. 8 So we ought to support such men, that we may be fellow workers in the truth.
