Williams(i)
3 To keep my ministry from being found fault with, I am trying not to put a single hindrance in anybody's way.
4 On the contrary, I am trying in everything to prove to people that I am a true servant of God: by my tremendous endurance in sorrows, distresses, difficulties;
5 in floggings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, and hunger;
6 through my personal purity, my knowledge, my patience, my kindness; through the Holy Spirit, my genuine love,
7 my message of truth, and the power of God; with the weapons of right-doing in my right hand and my left;
8 in honor or dishonor, in slander or praise; considered a deceiver and yet true,
9 obscure and yet well-known, on the point of dying and yet I go on living, punished and yet not put to death,
10 sad but always glad, poor but making many people rich, penniless but really possessing everything.
11 O Corinthians, my tongue is telling you everything; my heart is stretched with love for you.
