2 Corinthians 11:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ As surely as the truth of the Messiah^[a] is in me, my boasting will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia. ¹¹ Why? Because I do not love you? God knows that I do!

¹² But I will go on doing what I’m doing in order to deny an opportunity to those people who want an opportunity to be recognized as our equals in the work they are boasting about.
