Joy of Paul and Titus, Because of the Hospitality of the Corinthians

On account of this, we are encouraged. In addition to our own encouragement, we were even more delighted by the joy of Titus. For his spirit has been refreshed by all of you.

So we urged Titus to help complete your act of grace, just as he had started it.

…so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.

For they refreshed my spirit and yours as well. Show your appreciation, therefore, to such men.
