2 Corinthians 1:12-14
New American Standard Bible
Paul’s Integrity
12 For our [a]proud confidence is this: the testimony of (A)our conscience, that in holiness and (B)godly sincerity, (C)not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you. 13 For we write nothing else to you than what you read and understand, and I hope you will understand (D)until the end; 14 just as you also partially did understand us, that we are your reason to be proud as you also are ours, on (E)the day of our Lord Jesus.

Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Our Boast As We Endure Our Suffering Is Our Blameless And Forthright Behavior Toward You
12 For our boasting is this: the testimony of [a] our conscience that we conducted-ourselves in the world, and especially toward you, in simplicity[b] and purity[c] from God[d]; and not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God. 13 For we are writing no other things to you other than the things which you read or indeed understand. And I hope that you will understand until the end[e]— 14 just as you also did understand us in part— that we are your boast, even as you also are ours, on the day of our Lord Jesus.
