Wherefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto him.

For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him.

Οθεν και φιλοτιμουμεθα, ειτε ενδημουντες ειτε αποδημουντες, να ημεθα ευαρεστοι εις αυτον.

Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
