NMVInsomuch that we desired Titus [nurse], that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.

TCENTSo we have urged Titus, who previously encouraged you to begin gathering money, to return and help you complete this gracious gift.
T4TSo, because Titus was the one who helped you to begin gathering the money [EUP, MTY] for your gift, I urged him to also help you finish collecting the rest of your generous and loving gift.
