American Standard Version
22 [a]who also sealed us, and gave us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that to spare you I forbare to come unto Corinth. 24 Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for in [b]faith ye stand fast.

New International Version
22 set his seal(A) of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.(B)
23 I call God as my witness(C)—and I stake my life on it—that it was in order to spare you(D) that I did not return to Corinth. 24 Not that we lord it over(E) your faith, but we work with you for your joy, because it is by faith you stand firm.(F)
