Paul’s Concern for the Christians at Corinth

¹¹ I have become a fool! You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for I am in no way inferior to the preeminent apostles,^[a] even if I am nothing. ¹² Indeed, the signs of an apostle have been done among you with all patient endurance, both signs and wonders and deeds of power. ¹³ For in what respect are you made worse off^[b] more than the rest of the churches, except that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!
