20. I don’t have anyone else like Timothy. He takes a genuine interest in your welfare.
21. Everyone else looks after his own interests, not after those of Jesus Christ.
22. But you know what kind of person Timothy proved to be. Like a father and son we worked hard together to spread the Good News.
23. I hope to send him as soon as I see how things are going to turn out for me.
24. But the Lord gives me confidence that I will come ⌊to visit you⌋ soon.
