Galatians 4:11-16

English Standard Version

¹¹ I am afraid ^(A)I may have labored over you in vain.

¹² Brothers,^{[a] (B)}I entreat you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. ^(C)You did me no wrong. ¹³ You know it was ^(D)because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you ^(E)at first, ¹⁴ and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me ^(F)as an angel of God, ^(G)as Christ Jesus. ¹⁵ What then has become of your blessedness? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have gouged out your eyes and given them to me. ¹⁶ Have I then become your enemy by ^(H)telling you the truth?^[b]
