WPNT(i)
13 Now in just what were you inferiorized, compared to the other congregations, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong.
14 Well now, I am ready to come to you a third time, and I will still not burden you, because I want you, not your things—children should not have to save up for parents, but parents for children.
15 So I will gladly spend and be spent for the sake of your souls, even if the more I love you the less I am loved.
16 ‘Ok, ok, I didn’t burden you, but being crafty I took you by deception.’
17 Come now, did I actually take advantage of you by any of those whom I sent to you?
18 I urged Titus and sent the brother along—did Titus take any advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit, in the same footprints?
