2 Corinthians 12:18-20

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁸ I urged Titus to go and sent our brother with him. Surely Titus did not take any advantage of you, did he? Did we not walk in the same spirit—in the very same footprints?

Paul’s Visit

¹⁹ Are you thinking that we are trying to defend ourselves to you all this time?^[a] We are speaking in the sight of God in Christ. Dear friends, all these words are for your strengthening. ²⁰ For I am afraid that when I arrive, I may not find you as I want you to be, and that you might not find me as you want me to be. I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, pride, and disorder.
