2 Corinthians 11:9-12 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.

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ 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. ¹¹ Why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do. ¹² And I shall keep on doing as I am, in order to cut the ground from under the feet of those who want an opportunity to show themselves on a level with me in the matters of which they boast.
