2 Corinthians 9:3-4 But I am sending the brothers in order that our boasting about you would not prove to be empty in this case, so that you may be prepared just as I was saying,

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ But I am sending the brothers in order that our boasting about you would not prove to be empty in this case, so that you may be prepared just as I was saying, ⁴ lest somehow if Macedonians should come with me and find you unprepared, we—_⌊not to speak of you_⌋*—would be humiliated in connection with this project.
