1 Corinthians 4:12-13

New International Version

¹² We work hard with our own hands.^(A) When we are cursed, we bless;^(B) when we are persecuted,^(C) we endure it; ¹³ when we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage^(D) of the world—right up to this moment.
