18 Now some have become [a](A)arrogant, as though I were not (B)coming to you. 19 But I (C)will come to you soon, (D)if the Lord wills, and I shall find out, not the [b]words of those who are (E)arrogant, but their power. 20 For the kingdom of God is (F)not in [c]words, but in power. 21 What do you desire? (G)That I come to you with a rod, or with love and a spirit of gentleness?

King James Version
18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.
19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
