1O that ye were bearing with me a little of the folly, but ye also do bear with me:
2for I am zealous for you with zeal of God, for I did betroth you to one husband, a pure virgin, to present to Christ,
3and I fear, lest, as the serpent did beguile Eve in his subtilty, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that [is] in the Christ;
4for if, indeed, he who is coming doth preach another Jesus whom we did not preach, or another Spirit ye receive which ye did not receive, or other good news which ye did not accept -- well were ye bearing [it],
5for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,
6and even if unlearned in word -- yet not in knowledge, but in every thing we were made manifest in all things to you.
7The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you?
