New International Version
28 Therefore I am all the more eager to send him,(A) so that when you see him again you may be glad and I may have less anxiety. 29 So then, welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor people like him,(B) 30 because he almost died for the work of Christ. He risked his life to make up for the help you yourselves could not give me.(C)
