14 just as you also did understand us in part— that we are your boast, even as you also are ours, on the day of our Lord Jesus.
And In This Confidence I Was Intending To Come To You First, Then Go To Macedonia
15 And in this confidence, I was intending first[a] to come to you in order that you might have a second[b] benefit[c], 16 and[d] to go through you to Macedonia, and from Macedonia to come again to you, and to be sent-forward by you to Judea.

- 2 Corinthians 1:15 That is, by virtue of a second visit by Paul.
- 2 Corinthians 1:15 Or, grace, kindness, favor.
