Parallel
1 Thessalonians 2:17
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
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.
Brothers, although we were torn away from you for a short time (in person, not in heart), our desire to see you face to face was even more intense.
