2 Corinthians 11:23-25
11:23 Are they servants of Christ? (I am talking like I am out of my mind!) I am even more so: with much greater labors, with far more imprisonments, with more severe beatings, facing death many times.
11:24 Five times I received from the Jews forty lashes less one.
11:25 Three times I was beaten with a rod.
Once I received a stoning.
Three times I suffered shipwreck. A night and a day I spent adrift in the open sea.

but no more. If he is struck with more than these, you might view your fellow Israelite
with contempt.

53:5 He was wounded because of our rebellious deeds,
crushed because of our sins;
he endured punishment that made us well;
because of his wounds we have been healed.
Acts 16:23
16:23 After they had beaten them severely,
they threw them into prison and commanded
the jailer to guard them securely.
