2 Corinthians 9:4

9:4 For if any of the Macedonians should come with me and find that you are not ready to give, we would be humiliated ¹  (not to mention you) by this confidence we had in you. ² 

2 Corinthians 11:10

11:10 As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine ³  will not be stopped ⁴  in the regions of Achaia.

2 Corinthians 13:3

13:3 since you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me. He ⁵  is not weak toward you but is powerful among you.

2 Corinthians 1:17

1:17 Therefore when I was planning to do this, I did not do so without thinking about what I was doing, did I? ⁶  Or do I make my plans ⁷  according to mere human standards ⁸  so that I would be saying ⁹  both “Yes, yes” and “No, no” at the same time?

¹ tn Or “be disgraced”; Grk “be put to shame.”

² tn Grk “by this confidence”; the words “we had in you” are not in the Greek text, but are supplied as a necessary clarification for the English reader.

³ tn That is, that Paul offers the gospel free of charge to the Corinthians (see 2 Cor 11:7).

⁴ tn Or “silenced.”

⁵ tn Grk “who.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

⁷ tn The Greek construction anticipates a negative answer. This is indicated in the translation by the ‘tag’ question “did I?” at the end of the sentence.

⁸ tn Grk “the things that I plan, do I plan (them).”

⁹ tn Grk “according to the flesh.”

¹⁰ tn Grk “so that with me there should be.”
