Legacy Standard Bible
11 So then, knowing the (A)fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we [a]have been made manifest to God; and I hope that we [b]have been (B)made manifest also in your consciences. 12 We are not (C)again commending ourselves to you but are giving you an (D)opportunity to boast of us, so that you will have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart. 13 For if we [c]are (E)out of our mind, it is for God, or if we are of right mind, it is for you.

New King James Version
11 Knowing, therefore, (A)the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.
Be Reconciled to God
12 For (B)we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity (C)to boast on our behalf, that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart. 13 For (D)if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; or if we are of sound mind, it is for you.
