⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:1} Would to God ye could bear with me a little in [my] folly: and indeed bear with me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:2} For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:3} But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:4} For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him. ]
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:5} For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:6} But though [I be] rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:7} Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:8} I robbed other churches, taking wages [of them,] to do you service.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:9} And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all [things] I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep [myself. ]
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:10} As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:11} Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:12} But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:13} For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:14} And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:15} Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:16} I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:17} That which I speak, I speak [it] not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:18} Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:19} For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye [yourselves] are wise.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:20} For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour [you,] if a man take [of you,] if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:21} I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:22} Are they Hebrews? so [am] I. Are they Israelites? so [am] I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so [am] I.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:23} Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I [am] more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:24} Of the Jews five times received I forty [stripes] save one.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:25} Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:26} [In] journeyings often, [in] perils of waters, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils by [mine own] countrymen, [in] perils by the heathen, [in] perils in the city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren;
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:27} In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:28} Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:29} Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:30} If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:31} The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:32} In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{2nd Corinthians 11:33} And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.
