3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 I thank my God always on your behalf for the grace of God which has been given to you through Jesus Christ.
5 By Him you are enriched in everything, in all speech and in all knowledge,
6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
7 so that you are not lacking in any gift while waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
8 He will strengthen you to the end, so that you may be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 God is faithful, and by Him you were called to the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
