2 Corinthians 11:8-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 11
8
I robbed other churches by taking wages
from them
to serve you;
9
and when I was present with you and was in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for when the brothers came from Macedonia they fully supplied my need, and in everything I kept myself from being a burden to you, and will continue to do so.
10
As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.
11
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows
that I do!
12
But what I am doing I will also
continue to
do, so that I may eliminate the opportunity from those who want an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the matter about which they are boasting.
King James Version
Chapter 11
8
I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.
9
And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.
10
As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11
Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
12
But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 11
8
I robbed other churches by taking pay from them to minister to you.
9
When I was present with you and in need, I did not burden anyone, since the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my needs. I have kept myself, and will keep myself, from burdening you in any way.
10
As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.
11
Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows I do!
12
But I will continue to do what I am doing, in order to deny an opportunity to those who want to be regarded as our equals in what they boast about.
New Living Translation
Chapter 11
8
I 'robbed' other churches by accepting their contributions so I could serve you at no cost.
9
And when I was with you and didn’t have enough to live on, I did not become a financial burden to anyone. For the brothers who came from Macedonia brought me all that I needed. I have never been a burden to you, and I never will be.
10
As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, no one in all of Greece will ever stop me from boasting about this.
11
Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows that I do.
12
But I will continue doing what I have always done. This will undercut those who are looking for an opportunity to boast that their work is just like ours.
English Standard Version
Chapter 11
8
I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you.
9
And when I was with you and was in need, I did not burden anyone, for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my need. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.
10
As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia.
11
And why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
12
And what I am doing I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do.
New International Version
Chapter 11
8
I robbed other churches by receiving support from them so as to serve you.
9
And when I was with you and needed something, I was not a burden to anyone, for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied what I needed. I have kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and will continue to do so.
10
As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, nobody in the regions of Achaia will stop this boasting of mine.
11
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
12
And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.

myself
