16 do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention {of you} at my prayers,

17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, would give you {the} spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full knowledge of him,

16 Kahore e mutu taku whakawhetai mo koutou, me te whakahua ano i a koutou i aku inoinga;

17 Kia homai ki a koutou e te Atua o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, e te Matua o te kororia, te wairua o te whakaaro nui, o te whakakitenga i runga i te mohio ki a ia:
