For I think that, God, hath set forth, us the apostles, to be last of all, as men devoted to death, - in that, a spectacle, have we been made, unto the world, - both unto messengers and unto men.

We, are foolish for Christ's sake, but, ye, prudent in Christ; we are weak, but, ye, mighty; ye, all-glorious, but, we, dishonoured.

Until the present hour, we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and are wanderers,

And toil, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless, being persecuted, we hold on,

Being defamed, we beseech: as the sweepings of the world have we become, the offscouring of all - until even now.
