2 Corinthians - Chapter: 11


11:1	Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
11:2	For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
11:3	But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
11:4	For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
11:5	For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
11:6	But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
11:7	Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?
11:8	I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.
11:9	And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.
11:10	As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11:11	Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
11:12	But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
11:13	For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
11:14	And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
11:15	Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
11:16	I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
11:17	That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
11:18	Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
11:19	For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.
11:20	For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
11:21	I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.
11:22	Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
11:23	Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
11:24	Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
11:25	Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;
11:26	In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
11:27	In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
11:28	Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
11:29	Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?
11:30	If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.
11:31	The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.
11:32	In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:
11:33	And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.


11:1	Woulde to God, yee coulde suffer a litle my foolishnes, and in deede, ye suffer me.
11:2	For I am ielous ouer you, with godly ielousie: for I haue prepared you for one husband, to present you as a pure virgine to Christ:
11:3	But I feare least as the serpent beguiled Eue through his subtiltie, so your mindes shoulde be corrupt from the simplicitie that is in Christ.
11:4	For if he that commeth, preacheth another Iesus whome we haue not preached: or if yee receiue another spirite whome ye haue not receiued: either another Gospell, which yee haue not receiued, ye might well haue suffered him.
11:5	Verely I suppose that I was not inferior to the very chiefe Apostles.
11:6	And though I be rude in speaking, yet I am not so in knowledge, but among you wee haue beene made manifest to the vttermost, in all things.
11:7	Haue I committed an offence, because I abased my selfe, that ye might be exalted, and because I preached to you ye Gospell of God freely?
11:8	I robbed other Churches, and tooke wages of them to doe you seruice.
11:9	And when I was present with you, and had neede, I was not slouthfull to the hinderance of any man: for that which was lacking vnto me, the brethre which came from Macedonia, supplied, and in all thinges I kept and will keepe my selfe, that I should not be grieuous to you.
11:10	The trueth of Christ is in me, that this reioycing shall not be shut vp against me in the regions of Achaia.
11:11	Wherefore? because I loue you not? God knoweth.
11:12	But what I doe, that will I doe: that I may cut away occasion from them which desire occasion, that they might be found like vnto vs in that wherein they reioyce.
11:13	For such false apostles are deceitfull workers, and transforme themselues into the Apostles of Christ.
11:14	And no marueile: for Satan himselfe is transformed into an Angel of light.
11:15	Therefore it is no great thing, though his ministers transforme themselues, as though they were the ministers of righteousnes, whose end shall be according to their workes.
11:16	I say againe, Let no man thinke that I am foolish, or els take mee euen as a foole, that I also may boast my selfe a litle.
11:17	That I speake, I speake it not after the Lord: but as it were foolishly, in this my great boasting.
11:18	Seeing that many reioyce after the flesh, I will reioyce also.
11:19	For ye suffer fooles gladly, because that yee are wise.
11:20	For ye suffer, euen if a man bring you into bondage, if a man deuoure you, if a man take your goods, if a man exalt himselfe, if a man smite you on the face.
11:21	I speake as concerning the reproche: as though that we had bene weake: but wherein any man is bold (I speake foolishly) I am bold also.
11:22	They are Hebrues, so am I: they are Israelites, so am I: they are the seede of Abraham, so am I:
11:23	They are the ministers of Christ (I speake as a foole) I am more: in labours more aboundant: in stripes aboue measure: in prison more plenteously: in death oft.
11:24	Of the Iewes fiue times receiued I fourtie stripes saue one.
11:25	I was thrise beaten with roddes: I was once stoned: I suffered thrise shipwracke: night and day haue I bene in the deepe sea.
11:26	In iourneying I was often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of mine owne nation, in perils among the Gentiles, in perils in the citie, in perils in wildernes, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren,
11:27	In wearinesse and painefulnesse, in watching often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in colde and in nakednesse.
11:28	Beside the thinges which are outwarde, I am combred dayly, and haue the care of all the Churches.
11:29	Who is weake, and I am not weake? who is offended, and I burne not?
11:30	If I must needes reioyce, I will reioyce of mine infirmities.
11:31	The God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, which is blessed for euermore, knoweth that I lie not.
11:32	In Damascus the gouernour of the people vnder King Aretas, layde watch in the citie of the Damascens, and would haue caught me.
11:33	But at a window was I let downe in a basket through the wall, and escaped his handes.


11:1	Wolde to god ye coulde suffre me a lytell in my folysshnes: yee and I praye you forbeare me.
11:2	For I am gelous over you with godly gelousy. For I coupled you to one man to make you a chaste virgen to Christ.
11:3	But I feare lest as the serpent begyled Eve thorow his sutteltie even so youre wittes shuld be corrupte from the singlenes that is in Christ.
11:4	For if he that commeth preache another Iesus then hym whom we preached: or if ye receave another sprete then that which ye have receaved: other another gospell then that ye have receaved ye myght right wel have bene content.
11:5	I suppose that I was not behynde ye chefe apostles.
11:6	Though I be rude in speakynge yet I am not so in knowledge. How be it amonge you we are knowen to the vtmost what we are in all thynges.
11:7	Did I therin synne be cause I submitted my silfe that ye myght be exalted and because I preached to you the gospell of God fre?
11:8	I robbed other congregacions and toke wages of the to do you service with all.
11:9	And when I was present with yov and had nede I was greuous to no man for that which was lackynge vnto me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all thynges I kept my silfe that I shuld not be greveous to you: and so will I kepe my silfe.
11:10	Yf the trueth of Christ be in me this ieioysynge shall not be taken from me in the regions of Achaia.
11:11	Wherfore? Be cause I love you not? God knoweth.
11:12	Neverthe lesse what I doo that will I do to cut awaye occasion from them which desyre occasion that they myght be founde lyke vnto vs in that wherin they reioyce.
11:13	For these falce apostles are disceatefull workers and fassion them selves lyke vnto ye apostles of Christ.
11:14	And no marvayle for satan him silfe is chaunged into the fassion of an angell of light.
11:15	Therfore it is no great thynge though his ministers fassion them selves as though they were the ministers of rightewesnes: whose ende shalbe acordynge to their dedes.
11:16	I saye agayne lest eny man thynke yt I am folishe: or els eve now take me as a fole that I maye bost my silfe a lytell.
11:17	That I speake I speake it not after the wayes of the lorde: but as it were folysshly whill we are now come to bostynge.
11:18	Seynge that many reioyce after ye flesshe I will reioyce also.
11:19	For ye suffre foles gladly be cause that ye youre selves are wyse.
11:20	For ye suffre even if a man brynge you into bondage: yf a ma devoure: yf a man take: yf a man exalt hym silfe: yf a man smyte you on the face.
11:21	I speake as concernynge rebuke as though we had bene weake. How be it wherin soever eny man dare be bolde (I speake folisshly) I dare be bolde also
11:22	They are Ebrues so am I: They are Israelites eve so am I. They are ye seede of Abraha even so am I.
11:23	They are ye ministers of Christ (I speake as a fole) I am moare: In labours moare aboundat: In strypes above measure: In preson more plenteously: In deeth ofte.
11:24	Of the Iewes five tymes receaved I every tyme .xl. strypes saue one.

11:27	in laboure and travayle in watchynge often in honger in thirst in fastynges often in colde and in nakednes.
11:28	And besyde the thynges which outwardly happe vnto me I am cobred dayly and do care for all congregacions.
11:29	Who is sicke and I am not sicke? Who is hurte in the fayth and my hert burneth not?
11:30	Yf I must nedes reioyce I will reioyce of myne infirmities.
11:31	The God and father of oure lorde Iesus Christ which is blessed for evermore knoweth that I lye not
