1 C|strong="G1722"'est|strong="G1722" pourquoi|strong="G1352", ne pouvant attendre davantage, nous|strong="G1722" aimâmes mieux demeurer seuls|strong="G3441" à|strong="G1722" Athènes,
2 Et|strong="G2532" nous|strong="G2249" envoyâmes|strong="G3992" Timothée|strong="G5095" notre|strong="G2532" frère|strong="G2532", ministre|strong="G1249" de|strong="G2532" Dieu|strong="G2316", et|strong="G2532" notre|strong="G2532" compagnon|strong="G2532" d|strong="G1722"'œuvre|strong="G4904" dans|strong="G1722" l|strong="G2532"'Évangile|strong="G2098" de|strong="G2532" Christ|strong="G5547", pour|strong="G1519" vous|strong="G5210" affermir|strong="G4741", et|strong="G2532" vous|strong="G5210" exhorter|strong="G3870" au|strong="G1722" sujet|strong="G5228" de|strong="G2532" votre|strong="G2532" foi|strong="G4102";
3 Afin|strong="G1519" que|strong="G3754" nul|strong="G3367" ne|strong="G3367" soit|strong="G3367" ébranlé|strong="G4525" dans|strong="G1722" ces|strong="G3778" afflictions|strong="G2347"; car|strong="G1063" vous|strong="G3754" savez|strong="G1492" vous-mêmes|strong="G1492" que|strong="G3754" nous|strong="G3754" sommes|strong="G3748" destinés|strong="G2749" à|strong="G1519" cela|strong="G1519".
4 Et|strong="G2532", lorsque|strong="G3753" nous|strong="G2532" étions|strong="G2532" avec|strong="G2532" vous|strong="G5210", nous|strong="G2532" vous|strong="G5210" prédisions que|strong="G3754" nous|strong="G2532" aurions à|strong="G2532" souffrir des|strong="G2532" afflictions, comme|strong="G2531" cela|strong="G2532" est|strong="G1510" arrivé|strong="G1096", et|strong="G2532" comme|strong="G2531" vous|strong="G5210" le|strong="G2532" savez|strong="G1492".
5 Ne|strong="G2532" pouvant donc|strong="G2532" attendre|strong="G2532" plus|strong="G2532" longtemps, j|strong="G1473"'envoyai|strong="G3992" afin|strong="G2532" de|strong="G2532" savoir|strong="G1097" ce|strong="G3778" qu|strong="G1223"'il|strong="G2532" en|strong="G2532" était|strong="G3588" de|strong="G2532" votre|strong="G2532" foi|strong="G4102", de|strong="G2532" peur|strong="G3381" que|strong="G2532" le|strong="G2532" tentateur|strong="G3985" ne|strong="G2532" vous|strong="G5210" eût|strong="G1096" séduits, et|strong="G2532" que|strong="G2532" notre|strong="G2532" travail|strong="G2873" ne|strong="G2532" fût|strong="G2532" devenu|strong="G1096" inutile.

8 Car|strong="G3754" nous|strong="G3754" vivons|strong="G2198" maintenant|strong="G3568", puisque|strong="G3754" vous|strong="G5210" demeurez|strong="G4739" fermes|strong="G4739" dans|strong="G1722" le|strong="G1722" Seigneur|strong="G2962".
