⁴ But they begged and pleaded with us ·to let them [^Lfor the privilege/grace to] share in this service for ·God’s people [^Tthe saints]. ⁵ And they gave in a way we did not expect: They first gave themselves to the Lord and to us. ·This is what God wants […by the will of God]. ⁶ So we ·asked [urged; encouraged] Titus [2:13] to help you finish this special work of grace since he is the one who started it.
