但我差遣那几位弟兄去，要使你们照我的话预备妥当，免得我们在这事上夸奖你们的话落了空。

现在我先派这几位弟兄到你们那里，以便你们把捐款预备好，正如我所说的那样，免得我们在这件事上夸耀你们的话成了虚言。

我派了那几位弟兄前来，为了要使我们在这事上对你们的称赞不至落空，好让你们可以照着我所说的准备妥当，

不过我派这些弟兄去，是为了我们在这方面对你们的夸耀不至于落空，好让你们能照着我所说的准备好；

但我打發那幾位弟兄去，要叫你們照我的話預備妥當，免得我們在這事上誇獎你們的話落了空。

我派了那幾位弟兄前來，為了要使我們在這事上對你們的稱讚不至落空，好讓你們可以照著我所說的準備妥當，

不過我還打發那幾位弟兄去，好叫我們在這方面所誇獎你們的不至於落了空，好叫你們照我屢次所說的豫備好了。

不過我派這些弟兄去，是為了我們在這方面對你們的誇耀不至於落空，好讓你們能照著我所說的準備好；

今我遣兄弟、使爾有備、如我所言、免我為爾之誇歸於虛也、

吾遣兄弟、使爾有備、如余所言、恐吾讚爾之言、或歸於虛、

我遣兄弟、欲使爾有備、如我所言、免我於此事為爾所誇者歸於空虛、

吾今之所以先派兄弟者、亦欲爾等有備、庶幾吾所誇獎爾等之事、不成子虛烏有；

But I am sending the brothers in order that our boasting about you in this matter should not prove hollow, but that you may be ready, as I said you would be.

But I am sending the brothers. Then our bragging about you in this matter will have a good reason. You will be ready, just as I said you would be.

But I am sending the brothers so that our boasting about you may not prove empty in this matter, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be.

But I am sending these brothers to be sure you really are ready, as I have been telling them, and that your money is all collected. I don’t want to be wrong in my boasting about you.

But I am sending the brothers so that our boasting about you in this matter would not prove empty, and so that you would be ready just as I said.

But I have sent the brothers, in order that our boasting about you may not prove empty in this case, so that, as I was saying, you will be prepared;

Yet I have sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this respect, that, as I said, you may be ready;

But I have sent the brethren, that our glorying on your behalf may not be made void in this respect; that, even as I said, ye may be prepared:

But I sent the brothers so our boasting about you in the matter would not prove empty, and so you would be prepared just as I said.

Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready:

But I am sending these brothers so that our boasting about you may not be empty in this case, so that you may be ready just as I kept telling them.

But I have sent the brothers that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,

因此我勸提多，既然在你們中間開辦這慈惠的事，就當辦成了。 (cunpt)

論到為聖徒捐錢，我從前怎樣吩咐加拉太的眾教會，你們也當怎樣行。每逢七日的第一日，各人要照自己的進項抽出來留着，免得我來的時候現湊。及至我來到了，你們寫信舉薦誰，我就打發他們，把你們的捐資送到耶路撒冷去。若我也該去，他們可以和我同去。 (cunpt)

我若對提多誇獎了你們甚麼，也覺得沒有慚愧；因我對提多誇獎你們的話成了真的，正如我對你們所說的話也都是真的。 (cunpt)

他固然是聽了我的勸，但自己更是熱心，情願往你們那裏去。我們還打發一位兄弟和他同去，這人在福音上得了眾教會的稱讚。不但這樣，他也被眾教會挑選，和我們同行，把所託與我們的這捐資送到了，可以榮耀主，又表明我們樂意的心。這就免得有人因我們收的捐銀很多，就挑我們的不是。我們留心行光明的事，不但在主面前，就在人面前也是這樣。我們又打發一位兄弟同去；這人的熱心，我們在許多事上屢次試驗過。現在他因為深信你們，就更加熱心了。論到提多，他是我的同伴，一同為你們勞碌的。論到那兩位兄弟，他們是眾教會的使者，是基督的榮耀。所以，你們務要在眾教會面前顯明你們愛心的憑據，並我所誇獎你們的憑據。 (cunpt)

你要提醒眾人，叫他們順服作官的、掌權的，遵他的命，預備行各樣的善事。 (cunpt)

萬一有馬其頓人與我同去，見你們沒有預備，就叫我們所確信的，反成了羞愧；你們羞愧，更不用說了。因此，我想不得不求那幾位弟兄先到你們那裏去，把從前所應許的捐資預備妥當，就顯出你們所捐的是出於樂意，不是出於勉強。 (cunpt)
