2 Corinthians 7:4

4 I am acting with ^agreat boldness toward you; ^bI have great pride in you; ^cI am filled with comfort. In all our affliction, I am overflowing with joy.

2 Corinthians 8:24

24 So give proof before the churches of your love and of ^dour boasting about you to these men.

2 Corinthians 9:2-4

2 for I know your readiness, ^eof which I boast about you to the people of Macedonia, saying that Achaia has been ready ^fsince last year. And your zeal has stirred up most of them. 3 But ^gI am sending ^{▼▼Or I have sent} the brothers so that our boasting about you may not prove empty in this matter, so that you may be ready, ⁱas I said you would be. 4 Otherwise, if some Macedonians ^jcome with me and find that you are not ready, we would be humiliated—to say nothing of you—for being so confident.
