Galatians 4:12-14

New American Standard Bible

¹² I beg of you, ^(A)brothers and sisters, ^(B)become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You have done me no wrong; ¹³ but you know that it was because of a ^[a]bodily illness that I preached the gospel to you the ^[b]first time; ¹⁴ and you did not despise that which was a trial to you in my ^[c]bodily condition, nor express contempt, but ^(C)you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus Himself.
