我很喜歡司提反阿、福徒拿都和亞該古都到我這裏來，因為我對於你們之不在所感到缺少的、這些人都補上了；

但我不為性命作甚麼計算，而看為對自己有價值；比較起來，倒不如完盡了我的跑程、和我從主耶穌所領受的執事職任，鄭重證明上帝恩惠之福音。

我在主裏大大地喜樂，因為你們惦念我的心，終究再萌了芽。我的事、你們素來總是惦念的，只是沒有機會罷了。

但我樣樣都收到了，而且有富餘；我已得補足，因為我從以巴弗提接受了你們那裏所送來的馨香之氣味、可接納的祭物、上帝所喜歡的。

論到我嘛、我頂喜歡地為你們開費，以至於費盡了我自己。是不是我越發愛你們，就該越發少得你們的愛呢？

因為我知道、藉着你們的祈求、以及耶穌基督的靈之供應，這件事的結果終必使我得救的。按着我熱切的期待和盼望、在任何事上我都不至於羞愧，倒能以十二分放膽的心、或藉着活、或藉着死、總讓基督在我身體上、現今仍和素常一樣、都被尊為大。

弟兄們勝過他，是因着羔羊的血，因着他們所見證的道；他們又是至死不愛惜性命的。

然而、就使我的血做奠祭來澆在你們信心的祭物和供奉上、我也歡喜，並且和你們眾人一同歡喜。

這能朽壞的必須穿上不朽壞；這能死的必須穿上不死。

我本來有意思要將他留在身邊，讓他在我為福音受捆鎖時替你服事我。

他也真地病了，將近於死的；然而上帝憐恤他，不但憐恤他，也憐恤我，免得我憂上加憂。

若是提摩太來到了，你們要留心、讓他在你們那裏毫無懼怕，因為他勞力作主的工、像我一樣。

曾經為我的性命、將自己的脖子冒險不顧。不但我感謝他們，就是外國的眾教會也都感謝他們。

我赤着身子，你們給我穿；我病了，你們看望我；我在監裏，你們來看我。」那時義人必回答他說：「主啊，我們甚麼時候見你餓了供養你？或渴了給你喝？甚麼時候見你做旅客款接你？或赤着身子給你穿？又甚麼時候見你病了或在監裏來看你呢？』王必回答他們說：「我實在告訴你們，這些事你們既作在我這些弟兄中最小之一個的身上，就是作在我身上了。」
