2 Corinthians 1:12-20 (Epistle)
- 12
- For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.
- 13
- For we are not writing any other things to you than what you read or understand. Now I trust you will understand, even to the end
- 14
- (as also you have understood us in part), that we are your boast as you also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.
- 15
- And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit –
- 16
- to pass by way of you to Macedonia, to come again from Macedonia to you, and be helped by you on my way to Judea.
- 17
- Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?
- 18
- But as God is faithful, our word to you was not Yes and No.
- 19
- For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us – by me, Silvanus, and Timothy – was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes.
- 20
- For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.
