1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 But we have been taken away from you for a short while. We have been taken away in person, not in spirit. We are all the more eager with great desire to see you.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ But we have been taken away from you for a short while. We have been taken away in person, not in spirit. We are all the more eager with great desire to see you. ¹⁸ We wanted to come to you. I, Paul, wanted to more than once and yet Satan hindered us. ¹⁹ Who is our hope, or joy, or crown of exultation? Is it not you, in the presence of our Lord Jesus, at his coming? ²⁰ For you are our glory and joy!
