⁸ For now we really live, since you are standing firm^(A) in the Lord. ⁹ How can we thank God enough for you^(B) in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you?^{(C) 10} Night and day we pray^(D) most earnestly that we may see you again^(E) and supply what is lacking in your faith.

¹¹ Now may our God and Father^(F) himself and our Lord Jesus clear the way for us to come to you. ¹² May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other^(G) and for everyone else, just as ours does for you. ¹³ May he strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless^(H) and holy in the presence of our God and Father^(I) when our Lord Jesus comes^(J) with all his holy ones.^(K)
