- To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless.
- We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it;
- when we are slandered, we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
- I am not writing this to shame you, but to warn you, as my dear children.
- Even though you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.
