2 Corinthians 10:8-11

ACV(i) 8 For even if I also should boast somewhat more abundantly about our authority (which the Lord gave us for building up and not for tearing you down), I will not be shamed, 9 so that I would not seem as if to terrify you by the letters. 10 Because, The letters, he says, are indeed weighty and powerful, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is disdained. 11 Let such a man think this, that such kind we are in word by letters when absent, we are also such kind when present in the work.
