16. But Baruch Hashem, the One having given the same zerizut (diligence) for you in the lev (heart) of Titos,
17. Because of the chozek (encouragement) he received, and having more zerizut on his own accord, he went forth to you.
18. And we sent with him the Ach b'Moshiach who is bavust (famous) among all the Kehillot for his proclaiming the Besuras HaGeulah,
19. And not only this but also this Ach b'Moshiach has been handpicked by the Kehillot to travel with us and with this avodas kodesh of chesed being administered by us to the kavod of Adoneinu Himself and as a gvies eidus (testimony) to your goodwill.
20. Avoiding also that anyone should murmur about our handling of this liberal matanah (gift);
21. For our tachlis is to do what is tov me'od B'EINEI ELOHIM V'ADAM ("in the eyes of G-d and man"). [MISHLE 3:4 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
22. And we sent with them our Ach b'Moshiach whom we have often tested and found having zerizut in much, and now having even more zerizut by his great bitachon in you.
23. As for Titos, he is my shutaf and your fellow po'el in your avodas kodesh; as for our Achim b'Moshiach, they are shlichim of the Kehillot, the kavod of Moshiach.
24. Therefore, openly before the Moshiach's Kehillot, demonstrate your ahavah and vindicate our glorying about you [2C 7:14].
