8. for now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
9. For what thanksgiving can we render again unto God for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God;
10. night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
11. Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way unto you:
12. and the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we also do toward you;
13. to the end he may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
