14And it is no wonder; for even Satan himself is able to take the form of an angel of light.
15So it is no great thing if his servants make themselves seem to be servants of righteousness; whose end will be the reward of their works.
16I say again, Let me not seem foolish to anyone; but if I do, put up with me as such, so that I may take a little glory to myself.
17What I am now saying is not by the order of the Lord, but as a foolish person, taking credit to myself, as it seems.
18Seeing that there are those who take credit to themselves after the flesh, I will do the same.
19For you put up with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.
20You put up with a man if he makes servants of you, if he makes profit out of you, if he makes you prisoners, if he puts himself in a high place, if he gives you blows on the face.
