2 Corinthians 12:5-11

  5 G5228 On behalf of G5108 such a one G2744 will I glory: G1161 but G5228 on G1683 mine G2744 own behalf I will G3756 not G2744 glory, G1487 save G3361   G1722 in G3450 my G769 weaknesses.

  6 G1063 For G1437 if G2309 I should desire G2744 to glory, G2071 I shall G3756 not G2071 be G878 foolish; G1063 for G2046 I shall speak G225 the truth: G1161 but G5339 I forbear, G3361 lest G5100 any man G3049 should account G1519 of G1691 me G5228 above G3739 that which G991 he seeth G3165 me G2228 to be, or G191 heareth G5100   G1537 from G1700 me.

  7 G2532 And G3361 by G2443 reason G5236 of the exceeding greatness G602 of the revelations, G5229 that I should not be exalted overmuch, G1325 there was given G3427 to me G4647 a thorn G4561 in the flesh, G32 a messenger G4566 of Satan G2443 to G2852 buffet G3165 me, G2443 that G3361 I should not G5229 be exalted overmuch.

  8 G5228 Concerning G5127 this thing G3870 I besought G2962 the Lord G5151 thrice, G2443 that G868 it might depart G575 from G1700 me.

  9 G2532 And G2046 he hath said G3427 unto me, G3450 My G5485 grace G714 is sufficient G4671 for thee: G1063 for G3450 my G1411 power G5048 is made perfect G1722 in G769 weakness. G2236 Most gladly G3767 therefore G2744 will I G3123 rather G2744 glory G1722 in G3450 my G769 weaknesses, G2443 that G1411 the power G5547 of Christ G1981 may rest G1909 upon G1691 me.

  10 G1352 Wherefore G2106 I take pleasure G1722 in G769 weaknesses, G1722 in G5196 injuries, G1722 in G318 necessities, G1722 in G1375 persecutions, G1722 in G4730 distresses, G5228 for G5547 Christ's sake: G1063 for G3752 when G770 I am weak, G5119 then G1510 am I G1415 strong.

  11 G1096 I am become G878 foolish: G2744   G5210 ye G315 compelled G3165 me; G1063 for G1473 I G3784 ought G4921 to have been commended G5259 of G5216 you: G1063 for G3762 in nothing G5302 was I behind G5228 the very G3029 chiefest G652 apostles, G1487 though G2532   G1510 I am G3762 nothing.
