2 Corinthians 11:17

Tree of Life Version

What I am saying, I am saying not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this self-confident boasting.

See the chapter Copy

But to the rest I say—I, not the Lord—if any brother has a wife who is not a believer, and she agrees to live with him, he must not divorce her.

Now concerning virgins I have no command from the Lord, but I give an opinion as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy.

But this I say as a concession, not as a command.

I wish that you would put up with a little foolishness from me, but indeed you are putting up with me.

Otherwise, if any Macedonians were to come and find you unprepared, we—not to mention you—would be put to shame in this undertaking.
