For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked very many. |
for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirred up the majority. |
for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the Macedonians, namely, that Achaia has been prepared since last year, and your zeal has stirred up most of them. |
For I know your eagerness to help, and I have been boasting about it to the Macedonians, telling them that since last year you in Achaia were ready to give; and your enthusiasm has stirred most of them to action. |
For I am well acquainted with your willingness (your readiness and your eagerness to promote it) and I have proudly told about you to the people of Macedonia, saying that Achaia (most of Greece) has been prepared since last year for this contribution; and [consequently] your enthusiasm has stimulated the majority of them. |
for I know positively of your earnestness concerning which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia has been prepared since a year ago; and your zeal stimulated the majority of them. |
for I know how willing you are. Indeed, I have told the Macedonians with some pride that “Achaia was read to undertake this service twelve months ago.” Your enthusiasm has consequently stimulated most of them. |
for I know your readiness to help in it. I am boasting of you about it to the Macedonians, reminding them that Greece has been ready since last year and your enthusiasm has stimulated the most of them. |
