9And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,

10so that you may be able to test and prove what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

11filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
