  "2": "For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy, for I promised you in marriage to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.\n\n\\ts\\*",
  "3": "But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your thoughts might be led astray from the sincerity and the purity that are in Christ.",
  "4": "For if one who comes proclaims another Jesus whom we did not proclaim, or you receive a different spirit which you did not receive, or you receive a different gospel which you did not accept, you are bearing with it well!\n\n\\ts\\*",
  "5": "For I think that I am not at all inferior to those “super-apostles.”",
  "6": "But even if I am untrained in speech, yet I am not untrained in knowledge. But in every way we have made this clear to you in all things.\n\n\\ts\\*",

  "12": "And what I do I will also keep doing, so that I may take away the opportunity of those who desire an opportunity so that they may be regarded as equal to us in what they are boasting about.",
  "13": "For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.\n\n\\ts\\*",
  "14": "And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.",

  "18": "Since many boast according to the flesh, I will also boast.\n\n\\ts\\*",
  "19": "For you, being wise, gladly put up with the foolish.",
  "20": "For you put up with it if anyone enslaves you, if anyone consumes you, if anyone takes advantage of you, if anyone exalts himself, or if anyone slaps you in the face.",
  "21": "To my shame, I say that we were too weak for that! However, in whatever anyone might dare to boast—I am speaking in foolishness—I too dare to boast.\n\n\\ts\\*",
