2 Corinthians 11:5-23

5ForG1063 IG5302 reckon thatG3049 IG5302 amG5302 notG3367 a whit behind theG3588 veryG3029 chiefest apostlesG652.

6ButG1161 thoughG1487 IG2532 beG2532 rude inG1722 speechG3056, yetG2532 amG2532 IG2532 notG3756 inG1722 knowledgeG1108; nay, inG1722 everythingG3956 weG1487 have madeG5319 itG1161 manifestG5319 amongG1722 allG3956 menG3956 toG1519 you-ward.

7OrG2228 didG4160 IG3754 commitG4160 a sinG266 inG2316 abasing myselfG1683 thatG3754 ye mightG2316 beG2316 exaltedG5312, becauseG3754 IG3754 preachedG2097 toG2443 youG5210 theG3588 gospelG2098 ofG2316 GodG2316 forG3754 nought?

8IG2532 robbedG4813 otherG243 churchesG1577, takingG2983 wagesG3800 ofG1577 themG2983 thatG243 IG2532 mightG2532 minister unto youG5210;

9andG2532 whenG2532 IG1473 was presentG3918 withG1722 youG5210 andG2532 was inG1722 want, IG1473 was notG2532 a burdenG2655 onG1722 anyG3956 manG80; forG1063 theG3956 brethrenG80, whenG2532 theyG2532 cameG2064 fromG575 MacedoniaG3109, suppliedG4322 theG3956 measure ofG575 myG5083 want; andG2532 inG1722 everythingG3956 IG1473 keptG5083 myselfG1683 fromG575 beingG4 burdensome unto youG5210, andG2532 soG2532 willG3956 IG1473 keepG5083 myselfG1683.

10AsG1519 theG3588 truthG225 ofG1722 ChristG5547 isG1510 inG1722 meG1473, noG3756 manG3778 shallG3778 stop meG1473 ofG1722 thisG3778 glorying inG1722 theG3588 regionsG2824 ofG1722 AchaiaG882.

11Wherefore? becauseG3754 IG3754 loveG25 youG5210 notG3756? GodG2316 knoweth.

12ButG1161 whatG3739 IG1473 doG4160, thatG3739 IG1473 willG3739 doG4160, thatG3739 IG1473 mayG2532 cutG1581 offG1581 occasionG874 fromG1722 themG4160 whichG3739 desireG2309 anG2532 occasionG874; thatG3739 wherein theyG3739 gloryG2744, theyG3739 mayG2532 beG2532 foundG2147 evenG2532 asG2531 weG2249.

13ForG1063 suchG5108 menG5108 are falseG5570 apostlesG652, deceitfulG1386 workersG2040, fashioning themselvesG1519 intoG1519 apostlesG652 ofG652 ChristG5547.

14AndG2532 noG3756 marvel; forG1063 evenG2532 SatanG4567 fashioneth himselfG846 intoG1519 anG32 angelG32 ofG3588 lightG5457.

15ItG846 isG1510 noG3756 greatG3173 thingG846 thereforeG3767 ifG1487 hisG846 ministers alsoG2532 fashion themselvesG846 asG5613 ministers ofG2041 righteousnessG1343; whoseG3739 endG5056 shallG2532 beG1510 accordingG2596 toG2596 theirG846 worksG2041.

16IG1473 sayG3004 againG3825, LetG2443 noG3361 manG5100 thinkG1380 meG3004 foolishG878; butG1161 ifG1487 ye doG1380, yetG1161 asG5613 foolishG878 receiveG1209 meG3004, thatG2443 IG1473 alsoG1161 mayG2443 gloryG2744 a littleG3398.

17ThatG3739 whichG3739 IG3739 speakG2980, IG3739 speakG2980 notG3756 afterG2596 theG3588 LordG2962, butG235 asG5613 inG1722 foolishnessG877, inG1722 thisG3778 confidenceG5287 ofG2962 glorying.

18Seeing thatG2596 manyG4183 gloryG2744 afterG2596 theG2596 fleshG4561, IG2504 willG4183 gloryG2744 alsoG2504.

19ForG1063 ye bearG430 withG1510 theG3588 foolishG878 gladlyG2234, beingG1510 wiseG5429 yourselves.

20ForG1063 ye bearG430 withG1519 a manG5100, ifG1487 heG1487 bringeth youG5210 intoG1519 bondageG2615, ifG1487 heG1487 devoureth youG5210, ifG1487 heG1487 taketh youG5210 captive, ifG1487 heG1487 exalteth himselfG1519, ifG1487 heG1487 smiteth youG5210 onG1519 theG2983 faceG4383.

21IG1473 speakG3004 byG1722 wayG2596 ofG5100 disparagement, asG5613 thoughG5613 weG2249 had beenG5100 weakG770. YetG1161 whereinsoever anyG5100 is boldG5111 (IG1473 speakG3004 inG1722 foolishnessG877), IG1473 amG5111 boldG5111 alsoG1161.

22AreG1510 theyG1510 HebrewsG1445? soG2504 amG1510 IG2504. AreG1510 theyG1510 IsraelitesG2475? soG2504 amG1510 IG2504. AreG1510 theyG1510 theG1510 seedG4690 ofG4690 AbrahamG11? soG2504 amG1510 IG2504.

23AreG1510 theyG1510 ministers ofG1722 ChristG5547? (IG1473 speakG2980 asG1722 one beside himself) IG1473 moreG5228; inG1722 labours moreG5228 abundantly, inG1722 prisonsG5438 moreG5228 abundantly, inG1722 stripes aboveG5228 measure, inG1722 deaths oft.
