2 Corinthians 11:2

---

← 2 Corinthians 11:1	2 Corinthians 11:2 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 11:3 →
Would to God ye could bear with me a little in [my] folly: and indeed bear with me.	For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ.	But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
