2 Corinthians 13:9-11
9For we rejoice when we ourselves are 1weak, but you are strong; this we also pray for, 2that you 3become mature. 10For this reason I am writing these things while absent, so that when present 4I need not use 5severity, in accordance with the 6authority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.
117Finally, brothers and sisters, 8rejoice, 9mend your ways, be comforted, 10be like-minded, 11live in peace; and 12the God of love and peace will be with you.
