8. other assemblies I did rob, having taken wages, for your ministration;
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.
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. wherefore? because I do not love you? God hath known!
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;
13. for those such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ,
14. and no wonder--for even the Adversary doth transform himself into a messenger of light;
15. no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness--whose end shall be according to their works.
