2 Corinthians 11:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 But I fear lest as the (A)serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be [a]corrupt from the simplicity that is in [b]Christ:
4 [c]For if he that cometh, preacheth [d]another Jesus whom we have not preached: or if ye receive another spirit whom ye have not received: either another Gospel which ye have not received, ye might well have suffered him.
5 Verily I suppose that I was not inferior to the very chief Apostles.
