³³ just as ^(A)I try to please everyone in everything I do, ^(B)not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

¹⁰ For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying ^(A)to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a ^(B)servant^[a] of Christ.

^24 (A)Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.

¹⁹ For ^(A)though I am free from all, ^(B)I have made myself a servant to all, that I might ^(C)win more of them. ^20 (D)To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. ²¹ To ^(E)those outside the law I became ^(F)as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but ^(G)under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. ^22 (H)To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. ^(I)I have become all things to all people, that ^(J)by all means I might save some. ²³ I do it all for the sake of the gospel, ^(K)that I may share with them in its blessings.

¹⁹ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? It is ^(A)in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and ^(B)all for your upbuilding, beloved.

^2 (A)Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. ³ For ^(B)Christ did not please himself, but as it is written, ^(C)“The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”

²⁸ And, apart from other things, there is the daily pressure on me of my anxiety for ^(A)all the churches. ^29 (B)Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to fall, and I am not indignant?

¹⁴ in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and ^(A)thus save some of them.
