You are held in honor, but we in disrepute. 11To the present hour ahwe hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and aibuffeted and ajhomeless, 12and we aklabor, working with our own hands. alWhen reviled, we bless; amwhen persecuted, we endure; 13when slandered, we entreat. anWe have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, aothe refuse of all things.
