2 Corinthians 1:18-22
English Standard Version
18 As surely as (A)God is faithful, (B)our word to you has not been Yes and No. 19 For (C)the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we proclaimed among you, (D)Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No, but (E)in him it is always Yes. 20 For (F)all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our (G)Amen to God for his glory. 21 And it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and (H)has anointed us, 22 and who has also (I)put his seal on us and (J)given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.[a]

2 Corinthians 1:18-22
New International Version
18 But as surely as God is faithful,(A) our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.” 19 For the Son of God,(B) Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me and Silas[a](C) and Timothy(D)—was not “Yes” and “No,” but in him it has always(E) been “Yes.” 20 For no matter how many promises(F) God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen”(G) is spoken by us to the glory of God.(H) 21 Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm(I) in Christ. He anointed(J) us, 22 set his seal(K) of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.(L)
