2 Corinthians 11:18

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.

20For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
