10 Our dedication to Christ makes us look like fools, but you claim to be so wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are so powerful! You are honored, but we are ridiculed. 11 Even now we go hungry and thirsty, and we don’t have enough clothes to keep warm. We are often beaten and have no home. 12 We work wearily with our own hands to earn our living. We bless those who curse us. We are patient with those who abuse us.

Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure;
1 Corinthians 4:10–12 — New Century Version (NCV)
10 We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are very wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong.

We are often beaten, and we have no homes in which to live. 12 We work hard with our own hands for our food. When people curse us, we bless them. When they hurt us, we put up with it.

When people verbally abuse us, we bless them. When people persecute us, we endure it.
