2 Corinthians 11:7-9

New King James Version

⁷ Did I commit sin in ^[a]humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you ^(A)free of charge? ⁸ I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you. ⁹ And when I was present with you, and in need, ^(B)I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked ^(C)the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.
