2 Corinthians 12:13-19

CAB(i) 13 For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong! 14 Now for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not burden you. For I do not seek what is yours, but you. For the children ought not to store up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 15 And I gladly will spend and be expended for your souls; although the more abundantly I love you, the less I am loved. 16 But be that as it may, I did not burden you. Nevertheless, being crafty, I took you with guile! 17 Did I take advantage of you by any of those whom I sent to you? 18 I urged Titus, and I sent with him the brother. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same Spirit? Did we not walk in the same steps? 19 Again, do you think that we are defending ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ. But we do all things, beloved, for your edification.
