2 Corinthians 11:18-22

¹⁸Since many are boasting according to the flesh, I too will boast.

¹⁹For you gladly tolerate fools, since you are so wise.

²⁰In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or exalts himself or strikes you in the face.

²¹To my shame I concede that we were too weak for that! Speaking as a fool, however, I can match what anyone else dares to boast about.

²²Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.
