For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
I want you to know how hard I am contending for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me personally.
Θέλω γὰρ ὑμᾶς εἰδέναι ἡλίκον ἀγῶνα ἔχω περὶ ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ, καὶ ὅσοι οὐχ ἑωράκασιν τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἐν σαρκί,
Thelō gar ymas eidenai ēlikon agōna echō peri ymōn kai tōn en Laodikeia, kai osoi oych eōrakasin to prosōpon moy en sarki,
