2 Corinthians 1:22-24

22 he has also put his seal upon us and given the Spirit in our hearts as a first installment. [AN]

23 [AO] But I call upon God as witness, on my life, that it is to spare you that I have not yet gone to Corinth. [13]

24 Not that we lord it over your faith; rather, we work together for your joy, for you stand firm in the faith.
