2 Corinthians 11:7-11
Legacy Standard Bible
7 Or (A)did I commit a sin in humbling myself so that you might be exalted, because I proclaimed the (B)gospel of God to you (C)without charge? 8 I robbed other churches by (D)taking wages from them to minister to you. 9 And when I was present with you and was in need, I was (E)not a burden to anyone; for when (F)the brothers came from (G)Macedonia they fully supplied my need, and in everything I kept and will keep myself from (H)being a burden to you. 10 (I)As the truth of Christ is in me, (J)this boasting of mine will not be stopped in the regions of (K)Achaia. 11 Why? (L)Because I do not love you? (M)God knows I do!

2 Corinthians 11:7-11
New Living Translation
7 Was I wrong when I humbled myself and honored you by preaching God’s Good News to you without expecting anything in return? 8 I “robbed” other churches by accepting their contributions so I could serve you at no cost. 9 And when I was with you and didn’t have enough to live on, I did not become a financial burden to anyone. For the brothers who came from Macedonia brought me all that I needed. I have never been a burden to you, and I never will be. 10 As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, no one in all of Greece[a] will ever stop me from boasting about this. 11 Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows that I do.
