And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked, the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

because for the work of Christ he came close to death, not regarding his life, to supply what was lacking in your service toward me.

whom I wished to keep with me, that on your behalf he might minister to me in my bonds of the gospel.
