Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not your possessions, but you.
For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls.
If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?
Even so, I myself didn’t burden you.
But you might say that being crafty, I caught you with deception.
Did I take advantage of you by anyone of those whom I have sent to you?
