2 Corinthians 13 (KJV)

  1. 1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
  2. 2I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which in time past have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:
  3. 3Since all of you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which toward you is not weak, but is mighty in you.
  4. 4For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
  5. 5Examine yourselves, whether all of you be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know all of you not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except all of you be reprobates?
  6. 6But I trust that all of you shall know that we are not reprobates.
  7. 7Now I pray to God that all of you do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that all of you should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
  8. 8For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
  9. 9For we are glad, when we are weak, and all of you are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
  10. 10Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord has given me to edification, and not to destruction.
  11. 11Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
  12. 12Greet one another with an holy kiss.
  13. 13All the saints salute you.
  14. 14The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. Amen.
