2 Corinthians 11:23-30

MNT(i) 23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as though I were beside myself), such, far, more, am I; in labors more abundant, in imprisonments also more abundant, in floggings beyond measure, in deaths often. 24 Five times at the hands of the Jews, I have received one short of forty lashes. 25 Three times I have been scourged by the Romans; once I have been stoned; three times have I been shipwrecked; a night and a day have I been adrift in the open sea. 26 My journeys have been many; in perils of rivers, in perils of bandits; in perils from my countrymen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness; in perils on the sea, in perils among false brothers; 27 in toil and weariness, often in sleepless watching, in hunger and thirst, often without anything to eat; in cold and in nakedness. 28 Not to mention other things, there is the crowding pressure of each day upon me, the care of all the churches. 29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, but I burn with indignation? 30 If boast I must, it shall be concerning my weakness.
