10 Punika awinanipun tiang nyuratang paindikane puniki rikala tiang madohan saking semeton, mangda yening tiang sampun prasida rauh ring pantaran semetone, sampunang kantos tiang keras marep ring semeton, nganggen kuasa sane kapaicayang antuk Ida Sang Panembahan ring tiang, inggih punika kuasa buat ngwangun semeton boya buat ngrusak.
{13:10} Therefore, I write these things while absent, so that, when present, I may not have to act more harshly, according to the authority which the Lord has given to me, for edification and not for destruction.
