2 Corinthians 1:13-24
13For we write nothing else to you than what you read and understand, and I hope you will understand 1until the end; 14just as you also partially did understand us, that we are your reason to be proud as you also are ours, in 2the day of our Lord Jesus.
15In this confidence I intended at first to 3come to you, so that you might 4twice receive a 56blessing; 167that is, to 8pass 9your way into 10Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be 11helped on my journey to Judea. 17Therefore, I was not vacillating when I intended to do this, was I? Or what I purpose, do I purpose 12according to the flesh, so that with me there will be yes, yes and no, no at the same time? 18But as 13God is faithful, 14our word to you is not yes and no. 19For 15the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was preached among you by us--by me and 16Silvanus and 17Timothy--was not yes and no, but is yes 18in Him. 20For 19as many as are the promises of God, 20in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is 21our Amen to the glory of God through us. 21Now He who 22establishes us with you in Christ and 23anointed us is God, 22who also 24sealed us and 25gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a 26pledge.
23But 27I call God as witness 28to my soul, that 29to spare you I did not come again to 30Corinth. 24Not that we 31lord it over your faith, but are workers with you for your joy; for in your faith you are 32standing firm.
