2 Corinthians 12:14-16

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

Paul’s Concern for the Corinthians

¹⁴ Look, I am ready to come to you this third time.^(A) I will not burden you, since I am not seeking what is yours, but you. For children ought not to save up for their parents, but parents for their children. ¹⁵ I will most gladly spend and be spent for you.^[a](B) If I love you more, am I to be loved less? ¹⁶ Now granted, I did not burden^(C) you; yet, sly as I am, I took you in by deceit!^(D)
