19. I have tikvah b'Adoneinu Yehoshua to send Timotiyos to you soon, that I also may be cheered up in the da'as of the things concerning you.
20. For I have no one likeminded who will emesdik (genuinely) care for your spiritual welfare.
21. All of them are seeking their own interests [2:4], not those of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua.
22. But of the proven mamashus (real worth) of Timotiyos you have da'as, because as a ben with his abba, Timotiyos served with me in the Besuras HaGeulah.
23. Therefore, I have tikvah to send him, as soon as I see how things will go with me.
24. But I have bitachon in Hashem that indeed I will come quickly.
25. But I considered it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, the Ach b'Moshiach and fellow po'el (worker) and fellow chaiyal (soldier) of mine, but your shliach and keli kodesh (minister) of my need [4:18].
