11. I am afraid of you, lest perhaps I have laboured in vain among you.
12. Be ye as I, because I also am as you: brethren, I beseech you: you have not injured me at all.
13. And you know, how through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you heretofore: and your temptation in my flesh,
14. You despised not, nor rejected: but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15. Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness, that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and would have given them to me.
16. Am I then become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
17. They are zealous in your regard not well: but they would exclude you, that you might be zealous for them.
18. But be zealous for that which is good in a good thing always: and not only when I am present with you.
19. My little children, of whom I am in labour again, until Christ be formed in you.
20. And I would willingly be present with you now, and change my voice: because I am ashamed for you.
21. Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law?
