2 Corinthians 11:15


← 2 Corinthians 11:14 2 Corinthians 11:15 (KJV) 2 Corinthians 11:16 →
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
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.
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.
