2 Corinthians 11:12


← 2 Corinthians 11:11 2 Corinthians 11:12 (KJV) 2 Corinthians 11:13 →
Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
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.
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
