3 I do thankings to my God, to whom I serve from my progenitors [or my ancestors], in clean conscience, that without ceasing I have mind of thee in my prayers, night and day,
4 desiring to see thee; having mind of thy tears, [or mindful of thy tears], that I be [ful] filled with joy.
5 And I bethink of that faith, that is in thee not feigned, which also dwelled first in thine aunt Lois, and in thy mother Eunice. And I am certain, that also in thee.
