²⁵ Let us lie down in our ^(A)shame, and let our dishonor cover us; for we have sinned against Yahweh our God, we and our fathers, ^(B)from our youth even to this day. And we have not listened to the voice of Yahweh our God.”

⁹ For, I think that God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men ^(A)condemned to death, because we ^(B)have become a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men. ¹⁰ We are ^(C)fools for the sake of Christ, but ^(D)you are prudent in Christ! ^(E)We are weak, but you are strong! You are glorious, but we are without honor! ¹¹ To this present hour we ^(F)hunger and thirst, and are poorly clothed, and roughly treated, and homeless; ¹² and we labor, ^(G)working with our own hands; when we are ^(H)reviled, we bless; when we are ^(I)persecuted, we endure; ¹³ when we are slandered, we try to plead; we have ^(J)become as the scum of the world, the grime of all things, even until now.
