1 Corinthians 4:9–13

9 For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men acondemned to death; because we bhave become a spectacle to the world, 1both to angels and to men.

10 We are afools for Christ’s sake, but byou are prudent in Christ; cwe are weak, but you are strong; you are distinguished, but we are without honor.

11 To this present hour we are both ahungry and thirsty, and are poorly clothed, and are roughly treated, and are homeless;

12 and we toil, aworking with our own hands; when we are breviled, we bless; when we are cpersecuted, we endure;

13 when we are slandered, we try to 1conciliate; we have abecome as the scum of the world, the dregs of all things, even until now.
