2 Corinthians 12:13-19 For what is there in which you were made less than the other churches, but in the one thing that I was not a trouble to you? Let me have forgiveness for this wrong.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ For what is there in which you were made less than the other churches, but in the one thing that I was not a trouble to you? Let me have forgiveness for this wrong. ¹⁴ This is now the third time that I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a trouble to you: my desire is for you, not for your property: for it is not the children's business to make store for their fathers, but the fathers for the children. ¹⁵ And I will gladly give all I have for your souls. If I have the more love for you, am I to be loved the less? ¹⁶ But let it be so, that I was not a trouble to you myself; but someone may say being false, I took you with deceit. ¹⁷ Did I make a profit out of you by any of those whom I sent to you? ¹⁸ I gave orders to Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus make any profit out of you? were we not guided by the same Spirit, in the same ways? ¹⁹ It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.
