7Was it a sin for me to humble myself in order to exalt you, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?
8I robbed other churches by accepting their support in order to serve you.
9And when I was with you and in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my needs. I have refrained from being a burden to you in any way, and I will continue to do so.
— 2 Corinthians 11:7-9
