2 Corinthians 11:7-10 Did I do wrong in taking a lowly place to let you have an exalted one, in that I preached the good news about God to you without accepting any pay?

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Did I do wrong in taking a lowly place to let you have an exalted one, in that I preached the good news about God to you without accepting any pay? ⁸ I sponged on other churches by taking pay from them to render service to you, ⁹ and when I was with you and needed money, I never burdened a single one of you for a cent, for the brothers came from Macedonia and supplied what I needed. And so I kept myself, as I shall always do, from being a burden to you in any way. ¹⁰ But the truth of Christ in me, this boasting of mine shall never be stopped in the boundaries of Greece.
