Thanksgiving and Prayer

⁷ just as you learned it from ^(A)Epaphras our beloved ^(B)fellow servant.^[a] He is ^(C)a faithful minister of Christ on your^[b] behalf

⁹ And so, ^(A)from the day we heard, ^(B)we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that ^(C)you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all ^(D)spiritual wisdom and understanding, ¹⁰ so as ^(E)to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, ^(F)fully pleasing to him: ^(G)bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;
