2 Corinthians 1:14–18 · Berean Standard Bible

14 as you have already understood us in part, so that you may boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of our Lord Jesus.

15 Confident of this, I planned to visit you first, so that you might receive a double blessing.

16 I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and to return to you from Macedonia, and then to have you help me on my way to Judea.

17 When I planned this, did I do it carelessly? Or do I make my plans by human standards, so as to say “Yes, yes” when I really mean “No, no”?

18 But as surely as God is faithful, our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”
