1 Corinthians 4:8-10

8You already have what you want! You’ve already become rich! You’ve become kings without us! I wish you really were kings so that we could be kings with you.

9As I see it, God has placed us apostles last in line, like people condemned to die. We have become a spectacle for people and angels to look at.

10We have given up our wisdom for Christ, but you have insight because of Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are honored, but we are dishonored.
