2 Corinthians 11:17 in Context — 2 Corinthians 11
15 Il n’est donc pas étrange que ses ministres aussi se déguisent en ministres de justice. Leur fin sera selon leurs œuvres.
16 Je le répète, que personne ne me regarde comme un insensé; sinon, recevez-moi comme un insensé, afin que moi aussi, je me glorifie un peu.
17 Ce que je dis, avec l’assurance d’avoir sujet de me glorifier, je ne le dis pas selon le Seigneur, mais comme par folie.
18 Puisqu’il en est plusieurs qui se glorifient selon la chair, je me glorifierai aussi.
19 Car vous supportez volontiers les insensés, vous qui êtes sages.
