2 Corinthians 11:23-30

AUV(i) 23 Are they servants of Christ? (I am really talking like a crazy person now). I am more [of a servant, than they are]. I have worked much harder. I have been in prison more often. I have been flogged more severely. I have been in danger of death more frequently. 24 I received thirty-nine lashes from the Jews five times. 25 I was beaten with rods three times. I was stoned once. I suffered shipwreck three times and spent a night and a day in the open water. 26 I have been on frequent journeys; in danger from rivers; in danger from thieves; in danger from my own people; in danger from the Gentiles; in danger in the city; in danger in the desert; in danger in the ocean; in danger among false brothers. 27 I have worked and suffered. I have often gone without sleep, been hungry and thirsty, often gone without food [i.e., for spiritual reasons], been cold and had inadequate clothing. 28 Besides these [kinds of] things [or, “besides these outward things”], there is the daily pressure on me of concern for all the churches. 29 Who is weak, and I do not feel their weakness? Who is led astray [from God], and I do not burn [i.e., with righteous anger over the one who caused it]? 30 If I must boast, I will boast about the things that show my weakness.
