13 This will be the third time that I am coming to you. “Every matter must be established on the basis of the mouth of two or three witnesses.” 2 I have previously said when being present the second time, and though being absent, I also say now—to those who sinned before and to all the rest—that if I come again, I will not spare anyone, 3 since you are seeking proof of the Christ speaking in me, who is not weak toward you but is powerful among you. 4 For he was also crucified as a result of weakness, but he lives as a result of God’s power. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him as a result of God’s power toward you.
5 Test yourselves, whether you are in the faith. Examine yourselves. Or do you not fully realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you are unapproved? 6 And I hope that you will realize that we ourselves are not unapproved. 7 Now we pray to God that you may not do anything wrong, not so that we ourselves might be seen as approved, but so that you yourselves might do the good, even if we ourselves might be as unapproved. 8 For we are not able to do anything against the truth, but only on behalf of the truth. 9 For we rejoice whenever we ourselves are weak but you yourselves are powerful. We also pray for this: for your restoration. 10 Because of this, I write these things being absent so that, being present, I would not treat you harshly according to the authority which the Lord gave to me for building up and not for tearing down.
11 Finally, brothers, rejoice! Be restored, be encouraged, think the same, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.
12 Greet each other with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you.[fn]
13 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.[fn]
Some translations move All the saints greet you to verse 13.
Some translations separate All of the saints greet you from verse 12 and place it this verse. The text of this verse then becomes verse 14.
