Memang aku telah meminta Titus untuk pergi dan bersama-sama dengan dia aku mengutus saudara yang lain itu. Adakah Titus mengambil untung dari pada kamu? Tidakkah kami berdua hidup menurut roh yang sama dan tidakkah kami berlaku menurut cara yang sama?
Aku sudah meminta Titus pergi, lalu aku suruhkan saudara itu sertanya. Sudahkah Titus itu mengambil laba daripada kamu? Tiadakah kami berdua melakukan diri menurut Roh satu itu juga? Tiadakah kami berjalan menurut tapak itu juga?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother,.... The apostle proceeds to mention one or two persons that he had sent unto them, and desires to know whether they could charge them with any such practices. He had desired, exhorted, and encouraged Titus to go unto them, and collect money from them; but not for either of themselves, but for the poor saints at Jerusalem; and he sent another brother along with him, who is by some supposed to be Luke, to be a companion of him, and an assistant to him; and who was a witness of what he did, and for what purpose he was sent, and how he behaved:
did Titus make a gain of you? did he greedily desire your substance? did he show an avaricious temper, or a covetous inclination after your money? did he by any methods extort it from you? say if Titus, or the brother with him, received anything from you, either on their own, or my account?
walked we not in the same Spirit? in the same Spirit of God, being directed and influenced by him; or in the same disposition of mind, being agreed and determined to preach the Gospel freely, and receive nothing for it:
walked we not in the same steps? took the same methods, lived the same course of life, working with their own hands to supply their wants, rather than be burdensome to others: the apostle suggests, that where are the same Spirit, temper, disposition, and principles, there will be the same works and actions; and as for covetousness, it is neither agreeable to the Spirit of God, nor to the spirit of a Christian.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
I desired Titus - To go and complete the collection which you had commenced; see 2 Corinthians 8:6.
And with him I sent a brother - see note on 2 Corinthians 8:18.
Did Titus make a gain of you - They knew that he did not. They had received him kindly, treated him with affection, and sent him away with every proof of confidence and respect; see 2 Corinthians 7:7. How then could they now pretend that he had defrauded them?
Walked we not in the same spirit? - Did not all his actions resemble mine? Was there not the same proof of honesty, sincerity, and love which I have ever manifested? This is a very delicate turn. Paul’s course of life when with them they admitted was free from guile and from any attempt to get money by improper means. They charged him only with attempting it by means of others. He now boldly appeals to them and asks whether Titus and he had not in fact acted in the same manner; and whether they had not alike evinced a spirit free from covetousness and deceit?
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 18. I desired Titus — I never sent any to you but Titus and another brother; 2 Corinthians 8:6; 2 Corinthians 8:18. And did Titus make a gain of you? Did he get any thing from you, either for himself or for me? You know he did not. He was actuated by the same spirit, and he walked in the same steps.
