2 Corinthians 12:13-15
Authorized (King James) Version
13 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.
14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 15 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.

2 Corinthians 12:13-15
New International Version
13 How were you inferior to the other churches, except that I was never a burden to you?(A) Forgive me this wrong!(B)
14 Now I am ready to visit you for the third time,(C) and I will not be a burden to you, because what I want is not your possessions but you. After all, children should not have to save up for their parents,(D) but parents for their children.(E) 15 So I will very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well.(F) If I love you more,(G) will you love me less?
