2 Corinthians 11:21 in Context — 2 Corinthians 11

19 Porque vós, sendo [tão] sábios, tolerais com boa vontade os tolos.

20 Pois vós tolerais se alguém vos põe como escravos, se alguém [vos] explora, se alguém se aproveita [de vós] , se alguém age com arrogância, se alguém vos fere no rosto.

21 Eu digo como algo desonroso, como se tivéssemos estado fracos; mas naquilo em que algum outro é atrevido, eu também sou atrevido (falo como tolo).

22 Eles são hebreus? Eu também. Eles são israelitas? Eu também. Eles são semente de Abraão? Eu também.

23 Eles são servidores de Cristo? (Falo como tolo:) eu sou mais ainda; em trabalhos, muito mais; em feridas, mais; em prisões, muito mais; em [perigo] de morte, muitas vezes.
