《圣经》（新旧约全书）

左咡

我的言语虽然粗俗，我的知识却不粗俗。这是我们在凡事上，向你们众人显明出来的。But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

左咡

我因为白白传神的福音给你们，就自居卑微，叫你们高升，这算是我犯罪吗。Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

左咡

我亏负了别的教会，向他们取了工价来，给你们效力。I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.

左咡

我在你们那里缺乏的时候，并没有累着你们一个人。因我所缺乏的，那从马其顿来的弟兄们都补足了。我向来凡事谨守，后来也必谨守，总不至于累着你们。And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.

左咡

既有基督的诚实在我里面，就无人能在亚该亚一带地方阻挡我这自夸。As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

左咡

为什么呢。是因我不爱你们吗。这有神知道。Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.

左咡

我现在所作的，后来还要作，为要断绝那些寻机会人的机会，使他们在所夸的事上，也不过与我们一样。But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

左咡

那等人是假使徒，行事诡诈，装作基督使徒的模样。For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

左咡

这也不足为怪。因为连撒但也装作光明的天使。And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

左咡

所以他的差役，若装作仁义的差役，也不算希奇。他们的结局，必然照着他们的行为。Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
