1Therefore when we couldn’t stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,

2and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith;

3that no one be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.

4For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.

5For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor would have been in vain.
