2 Corinthians 13:7 in Context — 2 Corinthians 13

5 Examinaos á vosotros mismos si estáis en fe; probaos á vosotros mismos. ¿No os conocéis á vosotros mismos, que Jesucristo está en vosotros? si ya no sois reprobados.

6 Mas espero que conoceréis que nosotros no somos reprobados.

7 Y oramos á Dios que ninguna cosa mala hagáis; no para que nosotros seamos hallados aprobados, mas para que vosotros hagáis lo que es bueno, aunque nosotros seamos como reprobados.

8 Porque ninguna cosa podemos contra la verdad, sino por la verdad.

9 Por lo cual nos gozamos que seamos nosotros flacos, y que vosotros estéis fuertes; y aun deseamos vuestra perfección.
