1 To boast is not suitable for me; I will come to visions and revelations from the Lord. -
2 I knew a man in Christ fourteen years ago; that such a one (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not: God knows;) was caught away to the third heaven.
3 I also know that such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not: God knows,)
4 was caught away to Paradise, and heard words not to be spoken, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
5 Of such a one I will boast; but of myself I will not boast, unless in my infirmities.
6 For though I should choose to boast, I would not be void of understanding: for I will speak the truth. But I forbear, lest any one should think of me more than what he sees me to be, or what he hears of me.
7 And, lest I should be too much exalted by the excellence of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I might not be too much exalted.
