2 Corinthians 12:12-14

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹² The signs of a true apostle were performed among you in all patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works. ¹³ For in what were you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!^[a]

¹⁴ Here for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be a burden, for I seek not what is yours but you; for children ought not to lay up for their parents, but parents for their children.
