⁹ For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you are ^(A)obedient in all things.

⁸ For even if I made you ^(A)sorry with my letter, I do not regret it; ^(B)though I did regret it. For I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though only for a while.

¹² Therefore, although I wrote to you, I did not do it for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, ^(A)but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear to you.
