11. Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place.
12. We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure.
13. Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now.
14. I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.
