¹³ I do not want you to be unaware, brothers,^[a] that ^(A)I have often intended to come to you (but ^(B)thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some ^(C)harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.

Paul's Longing to See Them Again

¹⁷ But since we were torn away from you, brothers, for a short time, ^(A)in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire ^(B)to see you face to face, ¹⁸ because we wanted to come to you—I, Paul, again and again—but Satan ^(C)hindered us.
