2 Corinthians 13:6-9
13:6 And I hope that you will realize that we have not failed the test! 1
13:7 Now we pray to God that you may not do anything wrong, not so that we may appear to have passed the test, 2 but so that you may do what is right 3 even if we may appear to have failed the test. 4
13:8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the sake of the truth.
13:9 For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong. And we pray for this: that you may become fully qualified. 5
