5 Because of the hope that is lying by for you in the heavens, of which ye heard before, in the word of the truth of the glad–message,
6 When it presented itself unto you; even as, in all the world also, it is bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day when ye heard, and came personally to know the favour of God in truth,
7 Even as ye learned [it] from Epaphras, our beloved fellow–servant, who is faithful in our behalf, as a minister of the Christ,
8 Who also hath made evident unto us your love in spirit.
9 For this cause, we also, from the day when we heard [of you], cease not, in your behalf, praying and asking––that ye may be filled unto the personal knowledge of his will, in all spiritual wisdom and discernment, 10 So as to walk worthily of the Lord, unto all pleasing, in every good work, bearing fruit, and growing in the personal knowledge of God,
