We want you to know, brothers and sisters, of the grace of God
that has been given to the churches of Macedonia,

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was proclaimed to you by us,
Silvanus and Timothy and me,
was not “yes” and “no,” but “yes” has been in him.
For however many are the promises of God, their Yes is in him;
