17 Therefore I resolved this, much less did I use levity: or what I resolve, do I resolve according to the flesh, that there be with me yea, yea, and nay, nay. 18 And God faithful, for our word to you was not yea or nay. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who proclaimed in you by us, by me, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but was yea in him. 20 Forasmuch as the solemn promises of God in him yea, and in him Amen, for glory to God by us. 21 And he making us firm with you in Christ, and having anointed us, is God; 22 Who also having sealed us, and given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts. 23 And I call upon God a witness upon my soul, that, sparing you, I came no more to Corinth. 24 Not that we are masters of your faith, but we are aiders of your joy: for ye have stood in the faith. 2 Corinthians 1:17-24, Smith's Literal Translation.
