< 2 Corinthians 11 >
1 O that ye tolerated a little of my foolishness, but tolerate me too.

2 For I am jealous for you with a jealousy of God. For I betrothed you to one husband, a pure virgin to present to the Christ.

3 But I fear lest somehow, as the serpent enticed Eve by his craftiness, so your thoughts might be corrupted from the simplicity in the Christ.

4 For indeed if a man who comes, preaches another Jesus whom we did not preach, or ye receive another spirit that ye did not receive, or another good news that ye did not accept, ye well tolerated it.

5 For I reckon to come short in nothing of those, superlative apostles.

6 But even if I am unskilled in speech, yet not in knowledge, but in everything made known in all things to you.

7 Or did I commit a sin lowering myself so that ye might be lifted up, because I preached to you the good news of God freely?

9 And being present with you, and when needy, I was a burden to no man. For the brothers who came from Macedonia, they supplied my need. And in everything I kept and I will keep myself non-burdensome to you.

10 The truth of Christ is in me that this pride in me will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.

11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.

12 But what I do, I also will do, so that I may cut off the opportunity of those who desire an opportunity, that in what they boast, they might appear just as we also.

13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves into apostles of Christ.

14 And no marvel, for even Satan disguises himself into an agent of light.

15 Therefore, it is no great thing if his helpers also disguise themselves as helpers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

16 I say again, let not any man think me to be foolish, but if otherwise-even if as foolish-accept me, so that I also may boast some a little.

17 What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of the boast.

20 For ye tolerate it if some man enslaves you, if some man devours you, if some man seizes you, if some man lifts himself up, if some man strikes you on the face.
