1 Thessalonians 3:3-5

Rotherham(i) 3 That, no one, might be shrinking back in these tribulations. For ye, yourselves, know, that, hereunto, are we appointed; 4 For, even when we were with you, we told you beforehand––we are destined to suffer tribulation! even as it also came to pass, and ye know. 5 For this cause, I also, no longer concealing my anxiety, sent, that I might get to know your faith, lest by any means he that tempteth, should have tempted you, and, in vain, should have been our toil.
