2 Corinthians 1:21-23
Easy-to-Read Version
21 And God is the one who makes you and us strong in Christ. God is also the one who chose us for his work.[a] 22 He put his mark on us to show that we are his. Yes, he put his Spirit in our hearts as the first payment that guarantees all that he will give us.
23 I tell you this, and I ask God to be my witness that this is true: The reason I did not come back to Corinth was that I did not want to punish or hurt you.
