2 Corinthians 12:13-16

13For in what is it that ye have been inferior to the other assemblies, unless that I myself have not been in laziness a charge upon you? Forgive me this injury.

14Behold, this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be in laziness a charge; for I do not seek yours, but you; for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

15Now I shall most gladly spend and be utterly spent for your souls, if even in abundantly loving you I should be less loved.

16But be it so. I did not burden you, but being crafty I took you by guile.
