2 Korintus 2:1

2:1 So ¹  I made up my own mind ²  not to pay you another painful visit. ³ 

2 Korintus 11:30

11:30 If I must boast, ⁴  I will boast about the things that show my weakness. ⁵ 

[2:1]  ¹ tc Although usually δέ (de, “now”; found in א A C D¹ F G Ψ 0285 Ï lat) should take precedent over γάρ (gar) in textually disputed places in the corpus Paulinum, the credentials for γάρ here are not easily dismissed (Ì⁴⁶ B 0223 0243 33 1739 1881 al); here it is the preferred reading, albeit slightly.

[2:1]  ² tn Or “I decided this for myself.”

[2:1]  ³ tn Grk “not to come to you again in sorrow.”

[2:1]  sn Paul was not speaking absolutely about not making another visit, but meant he did not want to come to the Corinthians again until the conflict he mentioned in 2 Cor 2:4-11 was settled.

[11:30]  ⁴ tn Grk “If boasting is necessary.”

[11:30]  ⁵ tn Or “about the things related to my weakness.”
