2 Corinthians 12:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ You missed out on only one blessing the other churches received. That is, you didn't have to support me. Forgive me for doing you wrong.

¹⁴ I am planning to visit you for the third time. But I still won't make a burden of myself. What I really want is you, and not what you have. Children are not supposed to save up for their parents, but parents are supposed to take care of their children. ¹⁵ So I will gladly give all I have and all I am. Will you love me less for loving you too much?
