at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

The World English Bible
Oct. 1
2 Corinthians 11
2Co 11:1 I wish that
you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do
bear with me.
2Co 11:2 For I am
jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I married you to one
husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
2Co 11:3 But I am
afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness,
so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ.
2Co 11:4 For if he who
comes preaches another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if you
receive a different spirit, which you did not receive, or a different
"good news", which you did not accept, you put up with that
well enough.
2Co 11:5 For I reckon
that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
2Co 11:6 But though I
am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in
every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
2Co 11:7 Or did I
commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I
preached to you God's Good News free of charge?
2Co 11:8 I robbed other
assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
2Co 11:9 When I was
present with you and was in need, I wasn't a burden on anyone, for
the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of
my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you,
and I will continue to do so.
2Co 11:10 As the truth
of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the
regions of Achaia.
2Co 11:11 Why? Because
I don't love you? God knows.
2Co 11:12 But what I
do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them that desire
an occasion, that in which they boast, they may be found even as we.
2Co 11:13 For such men
are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ's
apostles.
2Co 11:14 And no
wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
2Co 11:15 It is no
great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of

that I also may boast a little.

speak, I don't speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in
this confidence of boasting.
2Co 11:18 Seeing that
many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
2Co 11:19 For you bear
with the foolish gladly, being wise.

with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he
takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the
face.

way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is
bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
2Co 11:22 Are they
Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of
Abraham? So am I.
2Co 11:23 Are they
servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so;
in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes
above measure, in deaths often.
2Co 11:24 Five times
from the Jews I received forty stripes minus one.
2Co 11:25 Three times I
was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered
shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
2Co 11:26 I have been
in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my
countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in
the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
2Co 11:27 in labor and
travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often,
and in cold and nakedness.
2Co 11:28 Besides those
things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily,
anxiety for all the assemblies.
2Co 11:29 Who is weak,
and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don't burn with
indignation?
2Co 11:30 If I must
boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
2Co 11:31 The God and
Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forevermore, knows
that I don't lie.

the governor under Aretas the king guarded the city of the Damascenes
desiring to arrest me.
2Co 11:33 Through a
window I was let down in a basket by the wall, and escaped his hands.
