CHAPTER 10
2 Corinthians 10:1
1 Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ,
who in  presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you: 2
Corinthians 10:2
2 But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that
confidence, wherewith I think to be bold against some, which think of us as
if we walked according to the flesh. 2 Corinthians 10:3
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 2 Corinthians 10:4
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to
the pulling down of strong holds;)
2 Corinthians 10:5
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself
against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought  to
the obedience of Christ;
2 Corinthians 10:6
6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your
obedience is fulfilled.
2 Corinthians 10:7
7 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to
himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this  again, that, as
he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's. 2 Corinthians 10:8
8 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord
hath given us for  edification, and not for your destruction, I should not
be ashamed:
2 Corinthians 10:9
9 That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters. 2 Corinthians 10:10
10 For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily
presence is weak, and his speech contemptible. 2 Corinthians 10:11
11 Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters when
we are absent, such will we be also in deed when we are present. 2
Corinthians 10:12
12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with
some that commend themselves: but  they measuring themselves by themselves,
and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise. 2 Corinthians
10:13
13 But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to
the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to
reach even unto you.
2 Corinthians 10:14
14 For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached
not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel
of Christ:
2 Corinthians 10:15
15 Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men's
labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be
enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly, 2 Corinthians 10:16
16 To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in
another man's line of things made ready to our hand. 2 Corinthians 10:17
17 But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 2 Corinthians 10:18
18 For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.
CHAPTER 11
2 Corinthians 11:1
1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
2 Corinthians 11:2
2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to
one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 2
Corinthians 11:3
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his
subtilty, so your  minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:4
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached,
or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. 2
Corinthians 11:5
5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. 2
Corinthians 11:6
6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been
throughly made manifest among you in all things. 2 Corinthians 11:7
7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted,
because I have preached to you the gospel of God  freely? 2 Corinthians
11:8
8 I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service. 2
Corinthians 11:9
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.
2 Corinthians 11:10
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting
in the regions of Achaia.
2 Corinthians 11:11
11 Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth. 2 Corinthians 11:12
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.
2 Corinthians 11:13
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves
into the apostles of Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:14
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
2 Corinthians 11:15
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as
the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their
works. 2 Corinthians 11:16
16 I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool
receive  me, that I may boast myself a little. 2 Corinthians 11:17
17 That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were
foolishly, in this confidence of boasting. 2 Corinthians 11:18
18 Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also. 2 Corinthians 11:19
19 For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise. 2 Corinthians 11:20
20 For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if
a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
2 Corinthians 11:21
21 I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit
whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,)  I am bold also. 2
Corinthians 11:22
22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the
seed of Abraham? so am I.
2 Corinthians 11:23
23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours
more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in
deaths oft.
2 Corinthians 11:24
24 Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. 2 Corinthians 11:25
25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered
shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; 2 Corinthians 11:26
26 In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in
perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by  the heathen, in perils in the
city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among
false brethren;
2 Corinthians 11:27
27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst,
in fastings  often, in cold and nakedness. 2 Corinthians 11:28
28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily,
the care of all the churches.
2 Corinthians 11:29
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not? 2
Corinthians 11:30
30 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.
2 Corinthians 11:31
31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for
evermore, knoweth  that I lie not.
2 Corinthians 11:32
32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the
Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me: 2 Corinthians 11:33
33 And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped
his hands.
CHAPTER 12
2 Corinthians 12:1
1 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and
revelations of the Lord.
2 Corinthians 12:2
2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I
cannot tell;  or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such
an one caught up to the third heaven. 2 Corinthians 12:3
3 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot
tell: God  knoweth;)
2 Corinthians 12:4
4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words,
which it is not lawful for a man  to utter. 2 Corinthians 12:5
5 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine
infirmities.
2 Corinthians 12:6
6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say
the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that
which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me. 2 Corinthians 12:7
7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the
revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of
Satan to buffet  me, lest I should be exalted above measure. 2 Corinthians
12:8
8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
2 Corinthians 12:9
9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is
made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:10
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities,
in persecutions, in distresses for  Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then
am I strong.
2 Corinthians 12:11
11 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to
have been commended of you: for  in nothing am I behind the very chiefest
apostles, though I be nothing.
2 Corinthians 12:12
12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in
signs, and wonders,  and mighty deeds. 2 Corinthians 12:13
13 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be
that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong. 2
Corinthians 12:14
14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be
burdensome to you: for  I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought
not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 2
Corinthians 12:15
15 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more
abundantly I love you, the less  I be loved. 2 Corinthians 12:16
16 But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught
you with guile.
2 Corinthians 12:17
17 Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you? 2 Corinthians 12:18
18 I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of
you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps? 2
Corinthians 12:19
19 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God
in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying. 2
Corinthians 12:20
20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and
that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates,
envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults: 2
Corinthians 12:21
21 And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I
shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the
uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
CHAPTER 13
2 Corinthians 13:1
1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three
witnesses shall every word be established. 2 Corinthians 13:2
2 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second
time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned,
and to all  other, that, if I come again, I will not spare: 2 Corinthians
13:3
3 Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not
weak,  but is mighty in you.
2 Corinthians 13:4
4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power
of God. For we also  are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the
power of God toward you.
2 Corinthians 13:5
5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.
Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus  Christ is in you, except ye be
reprobates?
2 Corinthians 13:6
6 But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates. 2 Corinthians 13:7
7 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved,
but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. 2
Corinthians 13:8
8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. 2 Corinthians 13:9
9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we
wish,  even your perfection.
2 Corinthians 13:10
10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should
use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given  me to
edification, and not to destruction. 2 Corinthians 13:11
11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one
mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace  shall be with you. 2
Corinthians 13:12
12 Greet one another with an holy kiss. 2 Corinthians 13:13
13 All the saints salute you.
2 Corinthians 13:14
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the
communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. (The second epistle to
the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus
and Lucas.)
