In fact, I made up my mind about this: I would not come to you on another painful visit.

So I made up my mind that I would not make another painful visit to you.

So I made up my mind that I would not make another painful visit to you.

For I made up my mind not to make another painful visit to you.

So I decided that I would not bring you grief with another painful visit.

But I decided this for my own sake, that I would not come to you in sorrow again.

But I determined this within myself, that I would not come again to you in sorrow.

But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow.

In fact, I made up my mind about this: I would not come to you on another painful visit.

But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.

So I made up my own mind not to pay you another painful visit.

But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.

I call on God as a witness, on my life, that it was to spare you that I did not come to Corinth.

What do you want? Should I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?

This is why I am writing these things while absent, so that when I am there I may not have to deal harshly with you, in keeping with the authority the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

For I fear that perhaps when I come I will not find you to be what I want, and you may not find me to be what you want. Perhaps there will be quarreling, jealousy, angry outbursts, selfish ambitions, slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorder.I fear that when I come my God will again humiliate me in your presence, and I will grieve for many who sinned before and have not repented of the moral impurity, sexual immorality, and sensuality they practiced.

Because of this confidence, I planned to come to you first, so that you could have a second benefit,and to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and then come to you again from Macedonia and be helped by you on my journey to Judea.Now when I planned this, was I of two minds? Or what I plan, do I plan in a purely human way so that I say“ Yes, yes” and“ No, no” at the same time?

Each of the disciples, according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brothers and sisters who lived in Judea.

When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to come to me in Nicopolis, because I have decided to spend the winter there.

Even though I am absent in the body, I am present in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who has been doing such a thing.

After Paul and Barnabas had engaged them in serious argument and debate, Paul and Barnabas and some others were appointed to go up to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem about this issue.

I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

For I wrote to you with many tears out of an extremely troubled and anguished heart— not to cause you pain, but that you should know the abundant love I have for you.

In fact, when we came into Macedonia, we had no rest. Instead, we were troubled in every way: conflicts on the outside, fears within.But God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the arrival of Titus,and not only by his arrival but also by the comfort he received from you. He told us about your deep longing, your sorrow, and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more.For even if I grieved you with my letter, I don’t regret it. And if I regretted it— since I saw that the letter grieved you, yet only for a while—

Barnabas wanted to take along John who was called Mark.
