5 And not only as we had hoped, but they first agave themselves to the Lord, and then to us by the bwill of God.
6 So awe urged Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also complete this grace in you as well.
7 But as ayou abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see bthat you abound in this grace also.
Christ Our Pattern
8 aI speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.
9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, athat though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become brich.
