2 Corinthians 11:12-15
English Standard Version
12 And what I am doing I will continue to do, (A)in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do. 13 For such men are (B)false apostles, (C)deceitful workmen, (D)disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as (E)an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as (F)servants of righteousness. (G)Their end will correspond to their deeds.

2 Corinthians 11:12-15
International Standard Version
12 But I will go on doing what I’m doing in order to deny an opportunity to those people who want an opportunity to be recognized as our equals in the work they are boasting about. 13 Such people are false apostles, dishonest workers who are masquerading as apostles of the Messiah.[a] 14 And no wonder, since Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 So it is not surprising if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their doom[b] will match their deeds!
