2 Corinthians 12

12:1

It is
<4851> (0)

not
<3756>

expedient
<4851> (5719)

for me
<3427>

doubtless
<1211>

to glory
<2744> (5738)_.

<1063>

I will come
<2064> (5695)

to
<1519>

visions
<3701>

and
<2532>

revelations
<602>

of the Lord
<2962>_.

{I will come: Gr. For I will come}

12:2

I knew
<1492> (5758)

a man
<444>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>

above
<4253> (0)

fourteen
<1180>

years
<2094>

ago
<4253>_,

(whether
<1535>

in
<1722>

the body
<4983>_,

I cannot
<3756>

tell
<1492> (5758)_;

or whether
<1535>

out
<1622>

of the body
<4983>_,

I cannot
<3756>

tell
<1492> (5758)_:

God
<2316>

knoweth
<1492> (5758);)

such an one
<5108>

caught up
<726> (5651)

to
<2193>

the third
<5154>

heaven
<3772>_.

12:3

And
<2532>

I knew
<1492> (5758)

such
<5108>

a man
<444>_,

(whether
<1535>

in
<1722>

the body
<4983>_,

or
<1535>

out
<1622>

of the body
<4983>_,

I cannot
<3756>

tell
<1492> (5758)_:

God
<2316>

knoweth
<1492> (5758);)

12:4

How that
<3754>

he was caught up
<726> (5648)

into
<1519>

paradise
<3857>_,

and
<2532>

heard
<191> (5656)

unspeakable
<731>

words
<4487>_,

which
<3739>

it is
<1832> (0)

not
<3756>

lawful
<1832> (5752)

for a man
<444>

to utter
<2980> (5658)_.

{lawful: or, possible}

12:5

Of
<5228>

such an one
<5108>

will I glory
<2744> (5695)_:

yet
<1161>

of
<5228>

myself
<1683>

I will
<2744> (0)

not
<3756>

glory
<2744> (5695)_,

but
<1508>

in
<1722>

mine
<3450>

infirmities
<769>_.

12:6

For
<1063>

though
<1437>

I would desire
<2309> (5661)

to glory
<2744> (5664)_,

I shall
<2071> (0)

not
<3756>

be
<2071> (5704)

a fool
<878>_;

for
<1063>

I will say
<2046> (5692)

the truth
<225>_:

but
<1161>

[now] I forbear
<5339> (5736)_,

lest
<3361>

any man
<5100>

should think
<3049> (5667)

of
<1519>

me
<1691>

above
<5228>

that which
<3739>

he seeth
<991> (5719)

me
<3165>

[to be], or
<2228>

[that] he heareth
<191> (5719)

of
<5100> <1537>

me
<1700>_.

12:7

And
<2532>

lest
<3363>

I should be exalted above measure
<5229> (5747)

through the abundance
<5236>

of the revelations
<602>_,

there was given
<1325> (5681)

to me
<3427>

a thorn
<4647>

in the flesh
<4561>_,

the messenger
<32>

of Satan
<4566>

to
<2443>

buffet
<2852> (5725)

me
<3165>_,

lest
<3363>

I should be exalted above measure
<5229> (5747)_.

12:8

For
<5228>

this thing
<5127>

I besought
<3870> (5656)

the Lord
<2962>

thrice
<5151>_,

that
<2443>

it might depart
<868> (5632)

from
<575>

me
<1700>_.

12:9

And
<2532>

he said
<2046> (5758)

unto me
<3427>_,

My
<3450>

grace
<5485>

is sufficient
<714> (5719)

for thee
<4671>_:

for
<1063>

my
<3450>

strength
<1411>

is made perfect
<5048> (5743)

in
<1722>

weakness
<769>_.

Most gladly
<2236>

therefore
<3767>

will I
<2744> (0)

rather
<3123>

glory
<2744> (5695)

in
<1722>

my
<3450>

infirmities
<769>_,

that
<2443>

the power
<1411>

of Christ
<5547>

may rest
<1981> (5661)

upon
<1909>

me
<1691>_.

12:10

Therefore
<1352>

I take pleasure
<2106> (5719)

in
<1722>

infirmities
<769>_,

in
<1722>

reproaches
<5196>_,

in
<1722>

necessities
<318>_,

in
<1722>

persecutions
<1375>_,

in
<1722>

distresses
<4730>

for
<5228> (0)

Christ's
<5547>

sake
<5228>_:

for
<1063>

when
<3752>

I am weak
<770> (5725)_,

then
<5119>

am
<1510> (5748)

I strong
<1415>_.

12:11

I am become
<1096> (5754)

a fool
<878>

in glorying
<2744> (5740)_;

ye
<5210>

have compelled
<315> (5656)

me
<3165>_:

for
<1063>

I
<1473>

ought
<3784> (5707)

to have been commended
<4921> (5745)

of
<5259>

you
<5216>_:

for
<1063>

in nothing
<3762>

am I behind
<5302> (5656)

the very chiefest
<3029>

apostles
<652> <5228>_,

though
<1499>

I be
<1510> (5748)

nothing
<3762>_.

12:12

Truly
<3303>

the signs
<4592>

of an apostle
<652>

were wrought
<2716> (5681)

among
<1722>

you
<5213>

in
<1722>

all
<3956>

patience
<5281>_,

in
<1722>

signs
<4592>_,

and
<2532>

wonders
<5059>_,

and
<2532>

mighty deeds
<1411>_.

12:13

For
<1063>

what
<5101>

is it
<2076> (5748)

wherein
<3739>

ye were inferior
<2274> (5681)

to
<5228>

other
<3062>

churches
<1577>_,

except
<1508>

[it be] that
<3754>

I
<1473>

myself
<846>

was
<2655> (0)

not
<3756>

burdensome
<2655> (5656)

to you
<5216>_?

forgive
<5483> (5663)

me
<3427>

this
<5026>

wrong
<93>_.

12:14

Behold
<2400> (5628)_,

the third time
<5154>

I am
<2192> (5719)

ready
<2093>

to come
<2064> (5629)

to
<4314>

you
<5209>_;

and
<2532>

I will
<2655> (0)

not
<3756>

be burdensome
<2655> (5692)

to you
<5216>_:

for
<1063>

I seek
<2212> (5719)

not
<3756>

yours
<5216>_,

but
<235>

you
<5209>_:

for
<1063>

the children
<5043>

ought
<3784> (5719)

not
<3756>

to lay up
<2343> (5721)

for the parents
<1118>_,

but
<235>

the parents
<1118>

for the children
<5043>_.

12:15

And
<1161>

I
<1473>

will very gladly
<2236>

spend
<1159> (5692)

and
<2532>

be spent
<1550> (5701)

for
<5228>

you
<5590> <5216>_;

though
<1499>

the more abundantly
<4056>

I love
<25> (5723)

you
<5209>_,

the less
<2276>

I be loved
<25> (5743)_.

{for you: Gr. for your souls}

12:16

But
<1161>

be it so
<2077> (5749)_,

I
<1473>

did
<2599> (0)

not
<3756>

burden
<2599> (5656)

you
<5209>_:

nevertheless
<235>_,

being
<5225> (5723)

crafty
<3835>_,

I caught
<2983> (5627)

you
<5209>

with guile
<1388>_.

12:17

Did I make a gain
<4122> (5656) <3361>

of you
<5209>

by
<1223>

any
<5100>

of them
<846>

whom
<3739>

I sent
<649> (5758)

unto
<4314>

you
<5209>_?

12:18

I desired
<3870> (5656)

Titus
<5103>_,

and
<2532>

with [him] I sent
<4882> (5656)

a brother
<80>_.

Did
<4122> (0) <3387>

Titus
<5103>

make a gain
<4122> (5656)

of you
<5209>_?

walked we
<4043> (5656)

not
<3756>

in the same
<846>

spirit
<4151>_?

[walked we] not
<3756>

in the same
<846>

steps
<2487>_?

12:19

Again
<3825>_,

think ye
<1380> (5719)

that
<3754>

we excuse ourselves
<626> (5736)

unto you
<5213>_?

we speak
<2980> (5719)

before
<2714>

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_:

but
<1161>

[we do] all things
<3956>_,

dearly beloved
<27>_,

for
<5228>

your
<5216>

edifying
<3619>_.

12:20

For
<1063>

I fear
<5399> (5736)_,

lest
<3381> <4458>_,

when I come
<2064> (5631)_,

I shall
<2147> (0)

not
<3756>

find
<2147> (5632)

you
<5209>

such as
<3634>

I would
<2309> (5719)_,

and [that] I
<2504>

shall be found
<2147> (5686)

unto you
<5213>

such as
<3634>

ye would
<2309> (5719)

not
<3756>_:

lest
<3381> <4458>

[there be] debates
<2054>_,

envyings
<2205>_,

wraths
<2372>_,

strifes
<2052>_,

backbitings
<2636>_,

whisperings
<5587>_,

swellings
<5450>_,

tumults
<181>_:

12:21

[And] lest
<3361>_,

when I come
<2064> (5631)

again
<3825>_,

my
<3450>

God
<2316>

will humble
<5013> (5661)

me
<3165>

among
<4314>

you
<5209>_,

and
<2532>

[that] I shall bewail
<3996> (5692)

many
<4183>

which
<3588>

have sinned already
<4258> (5761)_,

and
<2532>

have
<3340> (0)

not
<3361>

repented
<3340> (5660)

of
<1909>

the uncleanness
<167>

and
<2532>

fornication
<4202>

and
<2532>

lasciviousness
<766>

which
<3739>

they have committed
<4238> (5656)_.
