2 Corinthians 11:16-23

16I sayG3004 againG3825, LetG1380 noG3361 manG5100 thinkG1380 meG1473 a foolG878; ifG1487 otherwiseG1161G1490, yetG2579 asG5613 a foolG878 receiveG1209 meG1473, thatG2443 I may boast myselfG2744 a littleG3398. 17That whichG3739 I speakG2980, I speakG2980 it notG3756 afterG2596 the LordG2962, butG235 as it wereG5613 foolishlyG877, inG1722 thisG3778 confidenceG3588G5287 of boastingG3588G2746. 18Seeing thatG1893 manyG4183 gloryG2744 afterG2596 the fleshG3588G4561, IG2504 will gloryG2744 alsoG2504. 19ForG1063 ye sufferG430 foolsG878 gladlyG2234, seeing yeG1510 yourselves are wiseG5429. 20ForG1063 ye sufferG430, ifG1487 a manG5100 bringG2615 youG4771 into bondageG2615, ifG1487 a manG5100 devourG2719 you, ifG1487 a manG5100 takeG2983 of you, ifG1487 a manG5100 exalt himselfG1869, ifG1487 a manG5100 smiteG1194 youG4771 onG1519 the faceG4383. 21I speakG3004 as concerningG2596 reproachG819, asG5613 thoughG3754 weG1473 had been weakG770. HowbeitG1161 whereinsoeverG3739 anyG5100 is boldG5111, (I speakG3004 foolishlyG877,) IG2504 am boldG5111 alsoG2504. 22Are theyG1510 HebrewsG1445? soG2504 am IG2504. Are theyG1510 IsraelitesG2475? soG2504 am IG2504. Are theyG1510 the seedG4690 of AbrahamG11? soG2504 am IG2504.

23Are theyG1510 ministersG1249 of ChristG5547? (IG1473 speakG2980 as a foolG3912) IG5228 am moreG5228; inG1722 laboursG2873 more abundantG4057, inG1722 stripesG4127 above measureG5234, inG1722 prisonsG5438 more frequentG4057, inG1722 deathsG2288 oftG4178.
