2 Corinthians 8:21-23
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
21 For we are providing-for[a] good things not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of people. 22 And we sent with them our brother whom we often proved in many things as being diligent, but now is much more diligent with great confidence in you. 23 If any ask[b] about Titus— he is my partner and fellow-worker for you; if as to our brothers[c]— they are delegates[d] of the churches, a glory of [e] Christ.
