ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને બીજો પત્ર ૧૧:૧૭
જે હું કહું છું, પ્રભુના કહેવા પ્રમાણે નથી કહેતો; પણ અભિમાનના આવેશમાં જાણે કે મૂર્ખાઈથી બોલું છું.
हिन्दी2 कुरिन्थियों ११:१७
इस बेधड़क में जो कुछ मैं कहता हूँ वह प्रभु की आज्ञा के अनुसार नहीं पर मानो मूर्खता से ही कहता हूँ।

In context

15It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

16I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.

17That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.

18Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.

19For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
