2 Corinthians 12:13 Cross References - CLV

¹³ For is there anything in which you were discomfited above the rest of the ecclesias, except that I myself am not an encumbrance to you? Deal graciously with me for this injustice! "

⁶ Or have only I and Barnabas no right not to be working?

¹² If others are partaking of this right from you, are not rather we? Nevertheless we do not use this right, but we are forgoing all, lest we may be giving any hindrance to the evangel of Christ"

¹⁵ Yet I do not use any of these things. Now I do not write these things that it may be becoming thus with me, for it is my ideal rather to be dying, than that anyone shall be making my boast void." ¹⁶ For if I should be bringing the evangel, it is not for me to boast in, for necessity is lying upon me, for it were woe to me if I should not be bringing the evangel!" ¹⁷ For if I am engaging in this voluntarily, I have wages, yet if involuntarily, I have been entrusted with an administration." ¹⁸ What, then, is my wage? That, in bringing the evangel, I should be placing the evangel without expense, so as not to use up my authority in the evangel."

⁷ Or do I sin in humbling myself that you may be exalted, seeing that I bring the evangel of God to you gratuitously? " ⁸ Other ecclesias I despoil, getting rations for dispensing to you. " ⁹ And, being present with you and in want, I am not an encumberance to anyone (for the brethren coming from Macedonia replenish my wants), and in everything I keep and shall be keeping myself that I be not burdensome to you. "

¹⁴ Lo! this third time I hold myself ready to come to you and I shall not be an encumberance, for I am not seeking yours but you. For the children ought not to be hoarding for the parents, but the parents for the children. "
