Concern for the Corinthian Church

11 I have become (A)foolish; you yourselves compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you, for (B)in no respect was I inferior to the [a]most-eminent apostles, even if (C)I am nothing. 12 The [b](D)signs [c]of a true apostle were worked out among you with all perseverance, by [d]signs and wonders and [e]miracles. 13 For in what respect were you treated as less than the rest of the churches, except that (E)I myself did not become a burden to you? [f]Forgive me (F)this wrong!

11 I’ve become a fool! You made me do it. Actually, I should have been commended by you. I’m not inferior to the super-apostles in any way, even though I’m a nonentity. 12 The signs of an apostle were performed among you with continuous endurance through signs, wonders, and miracles. 13 How were you treated worse than the other churches, except that I myself wasn’t a financial burden on you? Forgive me for this wrong!
