10Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ`s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

11I am become foolish: ye compelled me; for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing was I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I am nothing.

12Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, by signs and wonders and mighty works.

13For what is there wherein ye were made inferior to the rest of the churches, except [it be] that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me this wrong.

14Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a burden to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

15And I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?

16But be it so, I did not myself burden you; but, being crafty, I caught you with guile.
