10 E se vier Timóteo, olhai para que ele esteja sem temor convosco; porque assim como eu, ele também faz a obra do Senhor.

11 Portanto ninguém o despreze; mas enviai-o em paz, para que ele venha a mim; porque eu o espero com os irmãos.

12 E quanto ao irmão Apolo, muito roguei que ele viesse com os irmãos até vós; mas ele de maneira nenhuma teve vontade de vir por agora; porém oferecendo-se a ele boa oportunidade, ele virá.

13 Vigiai, ficai firmes na fé, sede corajosos, [e] vos esforçai.

14 Todas as vossas coisas sejam feitas em amor.
