The author closes with a blessing and greetings.

Here "us" refers to the author and his companions, but not to the readers. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclusive]])

# we are persuaded that we have a clean conscience
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here "clean" stands for being free from guilt. AT: "we are certain that we have no guilt" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
|
||
|
|
||
|
# that I will be returned to you sooner
|
||
|
|
||
|
This can be stated in active form. AT: "that God will quickly remove the things that stop my coming to you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
