11. I am afraid for you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.
12. Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as you are: you have not injured me at all.
13. You know how through weakness of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
14. And my trial which was in my flesh you despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15. Where is then the blessedness you spoke of? for I bear you witness, that, if it had been possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
16. Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
