Paul and False Apostles

For I consider that (A)I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles. Even though (B)I am untrained in speech, yet I am not (C)in knowledge. But (D)we have [a]been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

Did I commit sin in [b]humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you (E)free of charge? I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you. And when I was present with you, and in need, (F)I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked (G)the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself. 10 (H)As the truth of Christ is in me, (I)no one shall stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia. 11 Why? (J)Because I do not love you? God knows!
