2 Corinthians 13

Examine Yourselves

1 aThis is the third time I am coming to you. b Every ▼
▼ Lit word
 fact ▼
▼ Lit shall be
 is to be confirmed by the ▼
▼ Lit mouth
 testimony of two or three witnesses. 2I have previously said when present the second time, and though now absent I say in advance to those who have fsinned in the past and to all the rest as well, that gif I come again I will not hspare anyone, 3since you are iseeking for proof of the jChrist who speaks in me, and who is not weak toward you, but kmighty in you. 4For indeed He was lcrucified because of weakness, yet He lives mbecause of the power of God. For we also are nweak ▼
▼ One early ms reads with Him
in Him, yet pwe will live with Him because of the power of God directed toward you.

5 qTest yourselves to see if you are in the faith; rexamine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you— unless indeed you ▼
▼ Lit are unapproved
 , tfail the test? 6But I trust that you will realize that we ourselves ▼
▼ Lit are not unapproved
do not fail the test. 7Now 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 ▼
▼ Lit be as
appear unapproved. 8For we can do nothing against the truth, but only for the truth. 9For we rejoice when we ourselves are wweak but you are strong; this we also pray for, ▼
▼ Lit your completion
that you be ymade complete. 10For this reason I am writing these things while absent, so that when present zI need not use aaseverity, in accordance with the abauthority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

11 acFinally, brethren, ▼
▼ Or farewell
rejoice, ▼
▼ Or put yourselves in order
 , afbe made complete, be comforted, agbe like-minded, ahlive in peace; and aithe God of love and peace will be with you. 12 ajGreet one another with a holy kiss. 13 akAll the ▼
▼ Or holy ones
saints greet you.

14 amThe grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the anlove of God, and the aofellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
