2 Corinthians 11:3-5
American Standard Version
2 Corinthians 11:3-5
American Standard Version
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, your [a]minds should be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not receive, or a different [b]gospel, which ye did not accept, ye do well to bear with him. 5 For I reckon that I am not a whit behind [c]the very chiefest apostles.

New International Version
2 Corinthians 11:3-5
New International Version
3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning,(A) your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached,(B) or if you receive a different spirit(C) from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel(D) from the one you accepted, you put up with it(E) easily enough.
5 I do not think I am in the least inferior to those “super-apostles.”[a](F)
