II Corinthians 11:9
The Scripture
(9) 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.
Chapter overview (whole chapter)
Second Corinthians 11 finds Paul defending his apostleship, warning the Corinthians against false 'super-apostles' who preach a different gospel, and recalling that he served them freely without burdening them. He reluctantly boasts of his Jewish heritage and extensive sufferings-beatings, shipwrecks, imprisonments, and constant concern for the churches. The chapter ends with his escape from Damascus in a basket lowered through a window in the wall.
