1 Porque não é necessário vos escrever sobre o trabalho que se faz para os santos.

3 Porém enviei a estes irmãos, para que nosso orgulho quanto a vós neste assunto não seja vão; para que (como eu já disse) possais estar prontos.

4 Para que, se caso vierem [alguns] macedônios comigo, e vos encontrarem despreparados, não nos envergonhemos (para não dizermos vós), por causa da confiança neste orgulho.
