18Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 For ye are our glory and joy.
2:18For we wanted to come to you-- certainly I, Paul, did, again and again-- but Satan stopped us.
2:18For we would have come unto you, I Paul indeed, once and again: but Satan hath hindered us.
2:18because we would fain have come unto you, I Paul once and again; and Satan hindered us.
2:18wherefore we have desired to come to you, even I Paul, both once and twice, and Satan has hindered us.
2:18because we would fain have come unto you, I Paul once and again; and Satan hindered us.
2:18Wherefore we would have come to you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
2:18because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.
2:18wherefore we wished to come unto you, (I indeed Paul,) both once and again, and the Adversary did hinder us;
2:18Why we would have come to you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
