12: And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:- edit KJV text
12: And may the Lord multiply you and make you abound in charity towards one another and towards all men: as we do also towards you,— edit Douay text


And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love. Comp. "2Cor 9:8".

The word "Lord" here probably refers to the Lord Jesus, as this is the name by which he is commonly designated in the New Testament. "Acts 1:24".

If this be so, then this is a petition to the Lord Jesus as the fountain of all grace and goodness.
