2 Corinthians 11:7-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Did I commit a sin by humbling myself so that you might be exalted, because I proclaimed God’s good news[a] to you free of charge?(A) 8 I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you. 9 And when I was with you and was in need, I did not burden anyone, for my needs were supplied by the brothers who came from Macedonia. So I refrained and will continue to refrain from burdening you in any way.(B) 10 As the truth of Christ is in me, this boast of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia.(C) 11 And why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!(D)

2 Corinthians 11:7-11
International Standard Version
7 Did I commit a sin when I humbled myself by proclaiming to you the gospel of God free of charge, so that you could be exalted? 8 I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you. 9 When I was with you and needed something, I did not bother any of you, because our brothers who came from Macedonia supplied everything I needed. I kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and I will continue to do so.
10 As surely as the truth of the Messiah[a] is in me, my boasting will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia. 11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows that I do!
