1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 But we, brethren, having been bereft of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face, with great desire.

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ But we, brethren, having been bereft of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face, with great desire. ¹⁸ Because we wished to come to you, even I, Paul, both once and again; and Satan hindered us. ¹⁹ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of glorying? Are not even ye, in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming? ²⁰ For ye are our glory and joy.
