2 Corinthians 11:18

16 I repeat: Let no one take me for a fool. But if you do, then receive me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

17 In this confident boasting of mine, I am not speaking as the Lord would, but as a fool.

Since many are boasting according to the flesh, I too will boast.

19 For you gladly tolerate fools, since you are so wise.

20 In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or exalts himself or strikes you in the face.
