10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye prudent in Christ: we weak, but ye strong: ye glorious, but we in dishonour.
11 To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and are in nakedness, and buffeted, and wander without a home,
12 and labour, working with our own hands. Railed at, we bless; persecuted, we suffer it;
13 insulted, we entreat: we are become as the offscouring of the world, the refuse of all, until now.
14 Not as chiding do I write these things to you, but as my beloved children I admonish you.
15 For if ye should have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the glad tidings.
16 I entreat you therefore, be my imitators.
