2 Corinthians 13:9-10

RYLT(i) 9 for we rejoice when we may be infirm, and you may be powerful; and this also we pray for -- your perfection! 10 because of this, these things -- being absent -- I write, that being present, I may not treat any sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down.
