Kehillah in Corinth II 5:11-13

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹¹ Therefore, since we have da’as of the yirat [Moshiach] Adoneinu, we persuade men, and we have been made manifest to Hashem and I have tikvah also that we have been made manifest to your matzpunim. [Job 23:15; 2C 4:2]

¹² We are not commending ourselves to you again [2C 3:1], but are giving an opportunity to you of glorying on behalf of us [2C 1:14] that you may respond to those who glory in outer appearance and not in lev.

¹³ For if we seem meshuggah, it is for Hashem; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.
