2CO-12:1 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will
come to visions
and revelations of the Lord.
2CO-12:2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago,
(whether in the
body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell:
God knoweth;)
such an one caught up to the third heaven.
2CO-12:3 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of
the body, I
cannot tell: God knoweth;)
2CO-12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard
unspeakable words,
which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
2CO-12:5 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not
glory, but in
mine infirmities.
2CO-12:6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a
fool; for I will
say the truth: but [now] I forbear, lest any man should think of
me above that
which he seeth me [to be], or [that] he heareth of me.
2CO-12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the
abundance of
the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the
messenger of
Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
2CO-12:8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it
might depart from
me.
2CO-12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength
is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather
glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
2CO-12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in
reproaches, in
necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake:
for when I am
weak, then am I strong.
2CO-12:11 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me:
for I ought to
have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very
chiefest
apostles, though I be nothing.
2CO-12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you
in all
patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
2CO-12:13 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other
churches, except
[it be] that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this
wrong.
2CO-12:14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and
I will not be
burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the
children ought not to
lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
2CO-12:15 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you;
though the more
abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.
2CO-12:16 But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless,
being crafty, I
caught you with guile.
2CO-12:17 Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent
unto you?
2CO-12:18 I desired Titus, and with [him] I sent a brother. Did
Titus make a
gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? [walked we] not
in the same
steps?
2CO-12:19 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we
speak before
God in Christ: but [we do] all things, dearly beloved, for your
edifying.
2CO-12:20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you
such as I would,
and [that] I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest
[there be]
