2 Corinthians 12:17-19

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁷ Did I take advantage of you by any of those I sent you? ¹⁸ I urged Titus^(A) to go, and I sent the brother with him. Titus didn’t take advantage of you, did he? Didn’t we walk in the same spirit^(B) and in the same footsteps?

¹⁹ Have you been thinking all along that we were defending ourselves to you? No, in the sight of God we are speaking in Christ, and everything, dear friends, is for building you up.^(C)
