But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. |
But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner. |
But, beloved, we are convinced of better things concerning you, and things that accompany (belong to) salvation, though we are confident of better things. |
Even though we speak like this, dear friends, we are confident of better things in your case – things that accompany salvation. |
Even though we speak this way, yet in your case, beloved, we are now firmly convinced of better things that are near to salvation and accompany it. |
But we have come to a settled persuasion concerning you, divinely loved ones, the things which are better and which are attached to a saved condition of life, even if we also thus speak. |
But although we give these words of warning we feel sure that you, whom we love, are capable of better things and will enjoy the full experience of salvation. |
But in your case, my dearly loved friends, even though we speak in such a tone, we are sure of better things, yea, things that point to salvation. |
