[a]For (A)it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I (B)have you in my heart, since both in my [b](C)imprisonment and in the (D)defense and confirmation of the (E)gospel, you all are [c]partakers of grace with me. For (F)God is my witness, how I long for you all with the [d]affection of (G)Christ Jesus. And this I pray, that (H)your love may overflow still more and more in (I)real knowledge and all discernment, 10 so that you may [e](J)discover the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and blameless for (K)the day of Christ; 11 having been filled with the (L)fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, for the glory and praise of God.
