Paul explains why it is important to provide for Zenas and Apollos.

|
# Our people
|
|
|
|
Paul is referring to the believers in Crete.
|
|
|
|
# that provide for urgent needs
|
|
|
|
"that enable them to help people who need important things immediately"
|
|
|
|
# needs, and so not be unfruitful
|
|
|
|
Paul speaks of people doing good work as if they were trees bearing good fruit. This double negative means they should be fruitful or productive. Alternate translation: "needs; in this way they will be fruitful" or "needs, and so they will do good works" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublenegatives]])
