⁴ Ndugu zetu mpendwao na Mungu, kwa kuwa tunajua kwamba Mungu amewachagua, ⁵ kwa sababu ujumbe wetu wa Injili haukuja kwenu kwa maneno matupu bali pia ulidhihirishwa katika nguvu na katika Roho Mtakatifu, tena ukiwa na uthibitisho kamili, kama vile ninyi wenyewe mnavyojua jinsi tulivyoenenda katikati yenu kwa ajili yenu. ⁶ Nanyi mkawa wafuasi wetu na wa Bwana, ingawa mlipata mateso mengi, mlilipokea lile Neno kwa furaha katika Roho Mtakatifu. ⁷ Hivyo ninyi mkawa kielelezo kwa waumini wote katika Makedonia na Akaya.
¹ Ndugu zangu, kwa kuwa ninyi wenyewe mnajua ya kwamba kuja kwetu kwenu hakukuwa bure, ² kama vile mjuavyo, tulikuwa tumeteswa na kutukanwa huko Filipi, lakini hata hivyo, kwa msaada wa Mungu wetu, tulikuwa na ujasiri wa kuwaambia Injili ya Mungu ingawa kulikuwa na upinzani mkubwa. ³ Kwa maana himizo letu halikutokana na hila wala nia mbaya au udanganyifu. ⁴ Kinyume chake, tulinena kama watu tuliokubaliwa na Mungu tukakabidhiwa Injili. Sisi hatujaribu kuwapendeza wanadamu bali kumpendeza Mungu, yeye ayachunguzaye mawazo ya ndani sana ya mioyo yetu. ⁵ Kama mjuavyo, hatukuja kwenu kwa maneno ya kujipendekeza au maneno yasiyo ya kweli ili kuficha tamaa mbaya: Mungu ndiye shahidi yetu. ⁶ Wala hatukuwa tunatafuta sifa kutoka kwa wanadamu, wala kutoka kwenu au kwa mtu mwingine awaye yote. Kama mitume wa Kristo tungaliweza kuwa mzigo kwenu, ⁷ lakini tulikuwa wapole katikati yenu, kama mama anayewatunza watoto wake wadogo. ⁸ Tuliwapenda sana kiasi kwamba tulifurahia kushirikiana nanyi, si Injili ya Mungu tu, bali hata maisha yetu, kwa sababu mlikuwa wa thamani mno kwetu. ⁹ Ndugu zetu, mnakumbuka juhudi yetu na taabu yetu. Tulifanya kazi usiku na mchana, ili tusimlemee mtu yeyote wa kwenu wakati tulipokuwa tunawahubiria Injili ya Mungu. ¹⁰ Ninyi wenyewe ni mashahidi na Mungu pia, jinsi tulivyokuwa watakatifu, wenye haki na wasio na lawama miongoni mwenu ninyi mlioamini. ¹¹ Maana mnajua kwamba tuliwatendea kila mmoja wenu kama vile baba awatendeavyo watoto wake. ¹² Tuliwatia moyo, tuliwafariji na kuwahimiza kuishi maisha yampendezayo Mungu, anayewaita katika Ufalme na utukufu wake.
