1 Thessalonians 3:3-5
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
3 That no man should be moved in these tribulations: for yourselves know, that we are appointed thereunto.
4 For even when we were with you, we foretold you that we should suffer tribulations, as also it is come to pass, and you know.
5 For this cause also, I, forbearing no longer, sent to know your faith: lest perhaps he that tempteth should have tempted you, and our labour should be made vain.

1 Thessalonians 3:3-5
New International Version
3 so that no one would be unsettled by these trials.(A) For you know quite well that we are destined for them.(B) 4 In fact, when we were with you, we kept telling you that we would be persecuted. And it turned out that way, as you well know.(C) 5 For this reason, when I could stand it no longer,(D) I sent to find out about your faith.(E) I was afraid that in some way the tempter(F) had tempted you and that our labors might have been in vain.(G)
