2 Corinthians 1:12-17
12For our 1proudG2746 confidenceG2746 is thisG3778: the testimonyG3142 of 2our conscienceG4893, that in holinessG41 and 3godlyG2316 sincerityG1505, 4not in fleshlyG4559 wisdomG4678 but in the graceG5485 of GodG2316, we have conductedG390 ourselves in the worldG2889, and especiallyG4056 towardG4314 you. 13For we writeG1125 nothingG3756 elseG243 to you thanG2228 whatG3739 you readG314 and understandG1921, and I hopeG1679 you will understandG1921 5untilG2193 the endG5056; 14justG2531 asG2531 you alsoG2532 partiallyG3313 did understandG1921 us, that we are your reasonG2745 toG2745 beG2745 proudG2745 as you alsoG2532 are oursG1473, on 6the dayG2250 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424.
15In thisG3778 confidenceG4006 I intendedG1014 at firstG4387 to 7comeG2064 to you, soG2443 thatG2443 you might 8twiceG1208 receiveG2192 a 910blessingG5485; 1611that is, to 12passG1330 13your wayG1223 into 14MacedoniaG3109, and againG3825 from MacedoniaG3109 to comeG2064 to you, and by you to be 15helpedG4311 onG4311 my journeyG4311 to JudeaG2449. 17ThereforeG3767, I was not vacillatingG5530G1644 when I intendedG1014 to do thisG3778, was I? OrG2228 whatG3739 I decideG1011, do I decideG1011 16accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, soG2443 thatG2443 with me there will be 17yesG3483, yesG3483 and noG3756, noG3756 at the same time?
