For you, being[so] wise,toleratethe foolishgladly.
I speakas to wise men;you judgewhatI say.
We are foolsfor Christ'ssake,but you are prudentin Christ;we are weak,but you are strong;you are distinguished,but we are without honor.
Nowconcerningthings sacrificed to idols,we knowthat we allhaveknowledge.Knowledgemakes arrogant,but loveedifies.
I knowyour deedsand your toiland perseverance,and that you cannottolerateevil men,and you put to the testthosewho callthemselvesapostles,and they are not, and you foundthem [to be] false;
Becauseyou say,"I amrich,and have become wealthy,and haveneedof nothing,"and you do not knowthat you are wretchedand miserableand poorand blindand naked,
