1 Corinthians 15:8-10

Contemporary English Version

^8 (A) Finally, he appeared to me, even though I am like someone who was born at the wrong time.^[a]

^9 (B) I am the least important of all the apostles. In fact, I caused so much trouble for God's church that I don't even deserve to be called an apostle. ¹⁰ But God treated me with undeserved grace! He made me what I am, and his grace wasn't wasted. I worked much harder than any of the other apostles, although it was really God's grace at work and not me.
