19. The churches chose this follower to travel with us while we carry this gift that will bring praise to the Lord and show how much we hope to help.
20. We don't want anyone to find fault with the way we handle your generous gift.
21. But we want to do what pleases the Lord and what people think is right.
22. We are also sending someone else with Titus and the other follower. We approve of this man. In fact, he has already shown us many times that he wants to help. And now he wants to help even more than ever, because he trusts you so much.
23. Titus is my partner, who works with me to serve you. The other two followers are sent by the churches, and they bring honour to Christ.
24. Treat them in such a way that the churches will see your love and will know why we boasted about you.
