2Cor 12:14: Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

2Cor 12:15: And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.

2Cor 12:16: But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

2Cor 12:17: Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?

2Cor 12:18: I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps?

2Cor 12:19: Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.

2Cor 12:20: For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:

2Cor 12:21: And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.

2Cor 13:1: This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

2Cor 13:2: I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:

2Cor 13:3: Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.

2Cor 13:4: For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.

2Cor 13:5: Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

2Cor 13:6: But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.

2Cor 13:7: Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.

2Cor 13:8: For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

2Cor 13:9: For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.

2Cor 13:10: Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
