American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
For yourselves, brethren, know our entering in unto you, that it hath not been found vain:
but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as ye know, at Philippi, we waxed bold in our God to speak unto you the {Greek: good tidings: and so elsewhere; see marginal note on Matthew 4:23.}gospel of God in much conflict.
For neither at any time were we found using words of flattery, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness, God is witness;
But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that to spare you I forbare to come unto Corinth.
I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing witness with me in the Holy Spirit,
For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.
