2 Corinthians 1:23

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

I call God as my witness that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

In context

21 Now it is God who establishes both us and you in Christ. He anointed us,

22 placed His seal on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a pledge of what is to come.

23 I call God as my witness that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

24 Not that we lord it over your faith, but we are fellow workers with you for your joy, because it is by faith that you stand firm.
