2 Corinthians 13:6–14

6 But I trust that you will realize that we ourselves 1do not fail the test.

7 Now we pray to God that you do no wrong; not that we ourselves may appear approved, but that you may do what is right, even though we may 1appear unapproved.

8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but only for the truth.

9 For we rejoice when we ourselves are aweak but you are strong; this we also pray for, 1that you be bmade complete.

10 For this reason I am writing these things while absent, so that when present aI need not use bseverity, in accordance with the cauthority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

11 aFinally, brethren, 1rejoice, 2bbe made complete, be comforted, cbe like-minded, dlive in peace; and ethe God of love and peace will be with you.

12 aGreet one another with a holy kiss.

13 aAll the 1saints greet you.

14 aThe grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the blove of God, and the cfellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
