2 Corinthians - Chapter: 11


11:1	O that ye were bearing with me a little of the folly, but ye also do bear with me:
11:2	for I am zealous for you with zeal of God, for I did betroth you to one husband, a pure virgin, to present to Christ,
11:3	and I fear, lest, as the serpent did beguile Eve in his subtilty, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that `is' in the Christ;
11:4	for if, indeed, he who is coming doth preach another Jesus whom we did not preach, or another Spirit ye receive which ye did not receive, or other good news which ye did not accept -- well were ye bearing `it',
11:5	for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,
11:6	and even if unlearned in word -- yet not in knowledge, but in every thing we were made manifest in all things to you.
11:7	The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you?
11:8	other assemblies I did rob, having taken wages, for your ministration;
11:9	and being present with you, and having been in want, I was chargeable to no one, for my lack did the brethren supply -- having come from Macedonia -- and in everything burdenless to you I did keep myself, and will keep.
11:10	The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting shall not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia;
11:11	wherefore? because I do not love you? God hath known!
11:12	and what I do, I also will do, that I may cut off the occasion of those wishing an occasion, that in that which they boast they may be found according as we also;
11:13	for those such `are' false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ,
11:14	and no wonder -- for even the Adversary doth transform himself into a messenger of light;
11:15	no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness -- whose end shall be according to their works.
11:16	Again I say, may no one think me to be a fool; and if otherwise, even as a fool receive me, that I also a little may boast.
11:17	That which I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this the confidence of boasting;
11:18	since many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast:
11:19	for gladly do ye bear with the fools -- being wise,
11:20	for ye bear, if any one is bringing you under bondage, if any one doth devour, if any one doth take away, if any one doth exalt himself, if any one on the face doth smite you;
11:21	in reference to dishonour I speak, how that we were weak, and in whatever any one is bold -- in foolishness I say `it' -- I also am bold.
11:22	Hebrews are they? I also! Israelites are they? I also! seed of Abraham are they? I also!
11:23	ministrants of Christ are they? -- as beside myself I speak -- I more; in labours more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths many times;
11:24	from Jews five times forty `stripes' save one I did receive;
11:25	thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice was I shipwrecked, a night and a day in the deep I have passed;
11:26	journeyings many times, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from kindred, perils from nations, perils in city, perils in wilderness, perils in sea, perils among false brethren;
11:27	in laboriousness and painfulness, in watchings many times, in hunger and thirst, in fastings many times, in cold and nakedness;
11:28	apart from the things without -- the crowding upon me that is daily -- the care of all the assemblies.
11:29	Who is infirm, and I am not infirm? who is stumbled, and I am not fired;
11:30	if to boast it behoveth `me', of the things of my infirmity I will boast;
11:31	the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ -- who is blessed to the ages -- hath known that I do not lie! --
11:32	In Damascus the ethnarch of Aretas the king was watching the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize me,
11:33	and through a window in a rope basket I was let down, through the wall, and fled out of his hands.


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.
11:25	Thryse was I beten with roddes. I was once stoned. I suffered thryse shipwracke. Nyght and daye have I bene in the depe of the see.
11:26	In iorneyinge often: In parels of waters: In parels of robbers: In ieoperdies of myne awne nacion: In ieoperdies amoge the hethen. I have bene in parels in cities in parels in wildernes in parels in the see in parels amonge falce brethren
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
11:32	In ye citie of Damascon the governer of ye people vnder kynge Aretas layde watche in ye citie of the Damasces and wolde have caught me
11:33	and at a wyndowe was I let doune in a basket thorowe the wall and so scaped his hondes.


11:1	Wolde God ye coulde suffre me a litle in my foloshnes, yet do ye forbeare me.
11:2	For I am gelous ouer you wt godly gelousy. For I haue maried you vnto one ma, to brynge a chaste virgin vnto Christ.
11:3	But I feare, lest as ye serpet begyled Eue wt his sutteltie, eue so yor wyttes shulde be corrupte from the synglenesse that is in Christ.
11:4	For yf he that commeth vnto you, preach another Iesus, whom we haue not preached, or yf ye receaue another sprete, yt ye haue not receaued, or another Gospell which ye haue not accepted, ye might right well haue bene cotent.
11:5	For I suppose that I am no lesse the the hye Apostles are.
11:6	And though I be rude in speakynge, yet am I not rude in knowlege. Howbeit amoge you I am knowne to the vttemost.
11:7	Or dyd I synne therin because I submytted my selfe, that ye mighte be exalted?For I preached vnto you the Gospell of God frely,
11:8	and robbed other cogregacions, and toke wages of the, to preach vnto you.
11:9	And whan I was present with you, and had nede, I was greuous to no man: for yt which was lackynge vnto me, the brethren which came fro Macedonia, suppleed. And in all thinges I kepte myselfe so, yt I shulde not be greuous to you, & so wyl I kepe my self
11:10	As surely as the trueth of Christ is in me, this reioysinge shal not be taken fro me in the regions of Achaia.
11:11	Wherfore? because I shulde not loue you? God knoweth.
11:12	Neuertheles what I do and wyl do, that do I to cut awaye occasion, from the which seke occasion, that they mighte boast the selues to be like vnto vs.
11:13	For soch false Apostles & disceatfull workers fashion them selues like vnto the Apostles of Christ.
11:14	And that is no maruell: for Sathan himfelfe is chaunged in to ye fashion of an angell of light.
11:15	Therfore is it no greate thinge, though his mymisters fashion them selues as though they were the preachers of righteousnes, whose ende shalbe acordinge to their dedes.
11:16	I saye agayne, lest eny man thynke that I am folish: or els take me euen now as a fole, yt I maye boast my selfe a litle also.
11:17	That I speake now, that speake I not after the LORDE, but as it were in folishnes, whyle we are now come to boastinge:
11:18	Seynge that many boaste them selues after ye flesh, I wil boast my selfe also.
11:19	For ye suffre foles gladly, in so moch as ye youre selues are wyse.
11:20	For ye suffre euen yf a man brynge you in to bondage, yf a man put you to dishonesty, yf a man take ought fro you, yf a man exalte himselfe ouer you, yf a man smyte you on the face.
11:21	I speake concernynge rebuke, as though we were weake.Wherin so euer now eny man darre be bolde (I speake folishly) therin darre I be bolde also.
11:22	They are Hebrues, so am I. They are Israelites, euen so am I. They are the sede of Abraham, so am I.
11:23	They are the mynisters of Christ (I speake as a fole) I am more: in laboures more abudaunt, in strypes aboue measure, in presonmentes more plenteously, in death oft.
11:24	Of the Iewes receaued I fyue tymes fortye strypes, one lesse.
11:25	Thryse was I beaten with roddes. I was once stoned, I suffred thryse shypwracke: nighte and daye haue I bene in the depe of the see:
11:26	I haue oft iourneyed: I haue bene oft in parels of waters, in parels amonge murthurers, in parels amonge the Iewes, in parels amonge the Heythen, in parels in cities, in parels in the wylderners, in parels vpon the See, in parels amonge false brethre,
11:27	in laboure & trauayle, in moch watchinges, in honger and thyrst, in moch fastinges in colde and nakednesse:
11:28	Besyde those thynges which are outwarde, namely my daylie combraunce, my daylie care for all cogregacions.
11:29	Who is weake, and I be not weake? Who is offended, & I burne not?
11:30	Yf I must nedes make my boast, I wil boast my selfe of myne infirmyte.
11:31	God ye father of oure LORDE Iesus Christ, which is blessed for euer, knoweth that I lye not.
11:32	At Damascon the gouernoure of ye people vnder kynge Aretas, kepte ye cite of the Damascenes, & wolde haue taken me.
11:33	and at a wyndowe was I let downe in a basket thorow the wall, & so escaped his handes.
