The King James Version Bible

2 Corinthians 11:18-24

  1. Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

  2. For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.

  3. For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

  4. I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.

  5. Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

  6. Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.

  7. Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
