SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:9

Por lo cual, ¿qu accin de gracias podremos dar a Dios por vosotros, por todo el gozo con que nos gozamos a causa de vosotros delante de nuestro Dios,

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Thessalonians 3:9

Verse 9. What thanks can we render to
God] The high satisfaction and uncommon joy which the apostle felt are strongly depicted in the language he uses. How near his heart did the success of his ministry lie! It was not enough for him that he preached so often, laboured so hard, suffered so much; what were all these if souls were not converted? And what were all conversions, if those who embraced the Gospel did not walk steadily in the way to heaven, and persevere?

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 9. For what thanks can we render to
God again or you , etc.] They had given thanks to God for them before, for their faith, love, and patience; (see 1 Thessalonians 1:2,3) and now having received a further account of them, they looked upon themselves bound to give fresh thanks to God for them, for the increase of their faith and love, and for their perseverance, as they did; (see 2 Thessalonians 1:3 2:13) since these are gifts of God's grace; but they knew not where to begin, what to render, and when to end: the phrase is much like that in ( <19B612> Psalm 116:12) what shall I render unto the Lord, etc. for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God : the joy they had was all joy, perfect and complete in its kind; (see James 1:2) and it was not for themselves, on their own account, because of any worldly interest or advantage they had therein, but for the sake of these Thessalonians, whose spiritual welfare they rejoiced at: nor was their joy of a carnal nature, but spiritual; it was a joy in the Holy Ghost, and which was hearty and sincere: it was before God our God, their covenant God and Father; it was in his sight and presence, who sees and knows all things, all actions, and the principles of them. Though this last clause, before our God, is in the Syriac version, placed at the beginning of the next verse, according to which, it refers, not to thanks or joy before God, but to prayer before him.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 6-10 - Thankfulness to
God is very imperfect in the present state; but on great end of the ministry of the word is to help faith forward. Tha which was the instrument to obtain faith, is also the means of increasing and confirming it, namely, the ordinances of God; and a faith cometh by hearing, so it is confirmed by hearing also.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

3:9 {Render again unto
God} (twi qewi antapodounai). Second aorist active infinitive of double compound verb ant-apodidwmi, to give back (apo) in return for (anti). Old verb rare in N.T., but again in #2Th 1:6. {For you} (peri humwn). Around (concerning) you, while in verse #2 huper (over is used for "concerning your faith." {For} (epi). Basis again as cause or ground for the joy. {Wherewith we joy} (hei cairomen). Probably cognate accusative hen with cairomen attracted to locative carai (#Mt 2:10).
