6 And I hope that you will recognize that we are not unqualified!
7 Now we pray to God that you not do wrong in any way, not that we are seen as approved, but that you do what is good, even though we are seen as though unqualified.
8 For we are not able to do anything against the truth, but rather only for the truth.
9 For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong, and we pray for this: your maturity.
10 Because of this, I am writing these things although I am absent, in order that when I am present I may not have to act severely according to the authority that the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.
11 Finally, brothers, rejoice, be restored, be encouraged, be in agreement, be at peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
12 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you.
