14. And no wonder! For Satan himself masquerades as a messenger of light!
15. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works!
16. Again I say, let no one think me to be a fool. And if otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, for me to also boast a little.
17. What I speak, I speak not according to the Master, but as in foolishness, in this boldness of boasting.
18. Since many boast according to the flesh, I too shall boast.
19. For you, being wise, put up with fools gladly!
20. For you put up with it if anyone enslaves you, if anyone devours you, if anyone takes from you, if anyone exalts himself, if one hits you in the face.
