2 Corinthians 11:7-13

7OrG2228 1did I commitG4160 a sinG266 in humblingG5013 myselfG1683 soG2443 that you might be exaltedG5312, becauseG3754 I preachedG2097 the 2gospelG2098 of GodG2316 to you 3withoutG1431 chargeG1431? 8I robbedG4813 otherG243 churchesG1577 by 4takingG2983 wagesG3800 from them to serveG1248 you; 9and when I was presentG3918 with you and was in needG5302, I was 5not a burdenG2655 to anyoneG3762; for when 6the brethrenG80 cameG2064 from 7MacedoniaG3109 they fullyG4322 suppliedG4322 my needG5303, and in everythingG3956 I keptG5083 myselfG1683 from 8beingG4 a burdenG4 to you, 9and will continueG5083 to do so. 10 10As the truthG225 of ChristG5547 is in me, 11thisG3778 boastingG2746 of mineG1519 G1473 will not be stoppedG5420 in the regionsG2824 of 12AchaiaG882. 11WhyG1223 G5101? 13BecauseG3754 I do not loveG25 you? 14GodG2316 knowsG3609 I do!

12But whatG3739 I am doingG4160 I will continueG2532 to doG4160, 15soG2443 that I may cutG1581 offG1581 opportunityG874 from thoseG3588 who desireG2309 an opportunityG874 to be 16regardedG2147 justG2531 as we are in the matter about whichG3739 they are boastingG2744. 13For suchG5108 menG5108 are 17falseG5570 apostlesG5570, 18deceitfulG1386 workersG2040, disguisingG3345 themselves as apostlesG652 of ChristG5547.
