我指望快到你那里去，所以先将这些事写给你。

我希望尽快到你那里去，所以先把这些事写给你；

我冀速就爾、

予盼不久即能來汝處、又恐濡滯、故先以此書寄汝、

I hope I can come to you soon. But now I am writing these instructions to you.

I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these things to you so that,

I am writing these things to you now, even though I hope to be with you soon,

I write these things to you, hoping to come to you soon.

I am writing these things to you, hoping to come to you before long;

These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly;

These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly;

I write these things to you, hoping to come to you soon.

These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:

I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions to you

These things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly;

And one thing more: Prepare a guest room for me, because I hope to be restored to you in answer to your prayers.

After I go through Macedonia, I will come to you— for I will be going through Macedonia.Perhaps I will stay with you for a while, or even spend the winter, so that you can help me on my journey, wherever I go.For I do not want to see you now and make only a passing visit; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

Because I was confident of this, I wanted to visit you first so that you might benefit twice.I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia and to come back to you from Macedonia, and then to have you send me on my way to Judea.Was I fickle when I intended to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner so that in the same breath I say both“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no”?

I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching.

For we wanted to come to you— certainly I, Paul, did, again and again— but Satan blocked our way.

Anyone who is hungry should eat something at home, so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment. And when I come I will give further directions.
