2 Corinthians 11:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 [a]For if he that cometh, preacheth [b]another Jesus whom we have not preached: or if ye receive another spirit whom ye have not received: either another Gospel which ye have not received, ye might well have suffered him.
5 Verily I suppose that I was not inferior to the very chief Apostles.
6 [c]And though I be [d]rude in speaking, yet I am not so in knowledge, but among you we have been made manifest to the uttermost, in all things.
