2 Corinthians 13

13This is ^athe third time I am coming to you. ^bIn the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. ^2cI told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, ^athe second time; and being absent now I write to them ^dwhich heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, ^eI will not ^fspare: ³Since ye seek ^ga proof of Christ ^hspeaking in me, ⁱwhich to you-ward is not weak, but ^jis mighty ^kin you. ⁴For ^lthough he was crucified through weakness, yet ^mhe liveth ^jby the power of God. For ⁿwe also are weak ^||in him, but we shall live with him ^jby the power of God toward you. ⁵Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; ^oprove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that ^pJesus Christ is in you, except ye be ^qreprobates? ⁶But I trust that ye shall know that we are not ^qreprobates. ⁷Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that ^rwe should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as ^qreprobates. ⁸For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. ⁹For we are glad, when ^swe are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your ^tperfection. ¹⁰Therefore I write these things being absent, ^ulest being present I should use ^wsharpness, according to ^xthe power which the Lord hath given me to ^xyedification, and not to ^xzdestruction.

¹¹Finally, brethren, farewell. ^aBe perfect, ^bbe of good comfort, ^cbe of one mind, ^dlive in peace; and the God ^eof love and ^fpeace shall be with you. ^12gGreet one another with an holy kiss. ^13hAll the saints salute you. ¹⁴ⁱThe grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and ^kthe communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
