Lamsa(i)
15 And in this confidence I wished to come to you before, that you might receive grace doubly;
16 And to pass by you on my way to Mac-edoÆni- a, and again to come back to you from Mac-e-doÆni-a, so that you may wish me Godspeed on my way to Judµa.
17 When I, therefore, was considering this, did I consider it lightly or are the things which I am considering wholly worldly? Because they should have been either yes, yes, or no, no.
18 But as God is true, our word to you was not yes and no.
