2 Korintus 1:14

1:14 just as also you have partly understood us, that we are your source of pride just as you also are ours ¹  in the day of the Lord Jesus. ² 

2 Korintus 4:15

4:15 For all these things are for your sake, so that the grace that is including ³  more and more people may cause thanksgiving to increase ⁴  to the glory of God.

2 Korintus 12:16

12:16 But be that as it may, I have not burdened you. Yet because I was a crafty person, I took you in by deceit!

[1:14]  ¹ tn Grk “that we are your boast even as you are our boast.”

[1:14]  ² tc ‡ On the wording “the Lord Jesus” (τοῦ κυρίου ᾿Ιησοῦ, tou kuriou Ihsou) there is some variation in the extant witnesses: ἡμῶν (Jhmwn, “our”) is found after κυρίου in several significant witnesses (א B F G P 0121 0243 6 33 81 1739 1881 2464 al lat co); the pronoun is lacking from Ì^46vid A C D Ψ Ï. Although in Paul “our Lord Jesus Christ” is a common expression, “our Lord Jesus” is relatively infrequent (cf., e.g., Rom 16:20; 2 Cor 1:14; 1 Thess 2:19; 3:11, 13; 2 Thess 1:8, 12). “The Lord Jesus” occurs about as often as “our Lord Jesus” (cf. 1 Cor 11:23; 16:23; 2 Cor 4:14; 11:31; Eph 1:15; 1 Thess 4:2; 2 Thess 1:7; Phlm 5). Thus, on balance, since scribes would tend to expand on the text, it is probably best to consider the shorter reading as authentic. NA²⁷ places the pronoun in brackets, indicating doubt as to its authenticity.

[4:15]  ³ tn Or “that is abounding to.”

[4:15]  ⁴ tn Or “to abound.”
