10. Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
11. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.
12. Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
13. Ye know that in infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel to you at the first.
14. And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15. What then was the blessedness ye spoke of; for I bear you testimony, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
16. Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?
17. They zealously affect you, but not well; for, they would exclude you, that ye may affect them.
18. But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
19. My little children, of whom I travail in birth again, until Christ be formed in you,
20. I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
