2 Corinthians 11:5-15

5For I reckon that I am not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.

6But though I be rude in speech, yet am I not in knowledge; nay, in everything we have made it manifest among all men to you-ward.

7Or did I commit a sin in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I preached to you the gospel of God for nought?

8I robbed other churches, taking wages of them that I might minister unto you;

9and when I was present with you and was in want, I was not a burden on any man; for the brethren, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my want; and in everything I kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.

10As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this glorying in the regions of Achaia.

11Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.

12But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire an occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ.

14And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light.

15It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
