1 Thessalonians 3:1-2

Expanded Bible

3 When we could ·not wait any [endure it no] longer, we decided it was best to stay in Athens alone ² and send Timothy to you. Timothy, our brother, ·works with us [is our coworker] for God ·and helps us tell people the Good News about [^Lin the Gospel of] Christ. We sent him to strengthen and ·encourage [comfort; or exhort] you in your faith
