since he longed after you all, and was sore troubled, because ye had heard that he was sick:

Because his heart was with you all, and he was greatly troubled because you had news that he was ill:

επειδη επεποθει ολους εσας και ελυπειτο, διοτι ηκουσατε οτι ησθενησε.

For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.
