2 Corinthians 11:16--12:11

11:16

I say
<3004> (5719)

again
<3825>_,

Let
<1380> (0)

no
<3361>

man
<5100>

think
<1380> (5661)

me
<1511> (5750) <3165>

a fool
<878>_;

if otherwise
<1490>_,

yet
<2579>

as
<5613>

a fool
<878>

receive
<1209> (5663)

me
<3165>_,

that
<2443>

I
<2504>

may boast myself
<2744> (5667)

a
<5100>

little
<3397>_.

{receive: or, suffer}

11:17

That which
<3739>

I speak
<2980> (5719)_,

I speak
<2980> (5719)

[it] not
<3756>

after
<2596>

the Lord
<2962>_,

but
<235>

as
<5613>

it were foolishly
<1722> <877>_,

in
<1722>

this
<5026>

confidence
<5287>

of boasting
<2746>_.

11:18

Seeing that
<1893>

many
<4183>

glory
<2744> (5736)

after
<2596>

the flesh
<4561>_,

I will glory
<2744> (5695)

also
<2504>_.

11:19

For
<1063>

ye suffer
<430> (5736)

fools
<878>

gladly
<2234>_,

seeing ye [yourselves] are
<5607> (5752)

wise
<5429>_.

11:20

For
<1063>

ye suffer
<430> (5736)_,

if a man
<1536>

bring
<2615> (0)

you
<5209>

into bondage
<2615> (5719)_,

if a man
<1536>

devour
<2719> (5719)

[you], if a man
<1536>

take
<2983> (5719)

[of you], if a man
<1536>

exalt himself
<1869> (5731)_,

if a man
<1536>

smite
<1194> (5719)

you
<5209>

on
<1519>

the face
<4383>_.

11:21

I speak
<3004> (5719)

as concerning
<2596>

reproach
<819>_,

as
<5613>

though
<3754>

we
<2249>

had been weak
<770> (5656)_.

Howbeit
<1161>

whereinsoever
<1722> <3739> <302>

any
<5100>

is bold
<5111> (5725)_,

(I speak
<3004> (5719)

foolishly
<1722> <877>,)

I am bold
<5111> (5719)

also
<2504>_.

11:22

Are they
<1526> (5748)

Hebrews
<1445>_?

so [am] I
<2504>_.

Are they
<1526> (5748)

Israelites
<2475>_?

so [am] I
<2504>_.

Are they
<1526> (5748)

the seed
<4690>

of Abraham
<11>_?

so [am] I
<2504>_.

11:23

Are they
<1526> (5748)

ministers
<1249>

of Christ
<5547>_?

(I speak
<2980> (5719)

as a fool
<3912> (5723))

I
<1473>

[am] more
<5228>_;

in
<1722>

labours
<2873>

more abundant
<4056>_,

in
<1722>

stripes
<4127>

above measure
<5234>_,

in
<1722>

prisons
<5438>

more frequent
<4056>_,

in
<1722>

deaths
<2288>

oft
<4178>_.

11:24

Of
<5259>

the Jews
<2453>

five times
<3999>

received I
<2983> (5627)

forty
<5062>

[stripes] save
<3844>

one
<3391>_.

11:25

Thrice
<5151>

was I beaten with rods
<4463> (5681)_,

once
<530>

was I stoned
<3034> (5681)_,

thrice
<5151>

I suffered shipwreck
<3489> (5656)_,

a night and a day
<3574>

I have been
<4160> (5758)

in
<1722>

the deep
<1037>_;

11:26

[In] journeyings
<3597>

often
<4178>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

of waters
<4215>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

of robbers
<3027>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

by
<1537>

[mine own] countrymen
<1085>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

by
<1537>

the heathen
<1484>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

in
<1722>

the city
<4172>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

in
<1722>

the wilderness
<2047>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

in
<1722>

the sea
<2281>_,

[in] perils
<2794>

among
<1722>

false brethren
<5569>_;

11:27

In
<1722>

weariness
<2873>

and
<2532>

painfulness
<3449>_,

in
<1722>

watchings
<70>

often
<4178>_,

in
<1722>

hunger
<3042>

and
<2532>

thirst
<1373>_,

in
<1722>

fastings
<3521>

often
<4178>_,

in
<1722>

cold
<5592>

and
<2532>

nakedness
<1132>_.

11:28

Beside
<5565>

those things that are without
<3924>_,

that which
<3588>

cometh upon
<1999>

me
<3450>

daily
<2250>_,

<2596>

the care
<3308>

of all
<3956>

the churches
<1577>_.

11:29

Who
<5101>

is weak
<770> (5719)_,

and
<2532>

I am
<770> (0)

not
<3756>

weak
<770> (5719)_?

who
<5101>

is offended
<4624> (5743)_,

and
<2532>

I
<1473>

burn
<4448> (5743)

not
<3756>_?

11:30

If
<1487>

I must needs
<1163> (5748)

glory
<2744> (5738)_,

I will glory
<2744> (5695)

of the things which concern
<3588>

mine
<3450>

infirmities
<769>_.

11:31

The God
<2316>

and
<2532>

Father
<3962>

of our
<2257>

Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_,

which
<3588>

is
<5607> (5752)

blessed
<2128>

for
<1519>

evermore
<165>_,

knoweth
<1492> (5758)

that I
<3754>

lie
<5574> (5736)

not
<3756>_.

11:32

In
<1722>

Damascus
<1154>

the governor
<1481>

under Aretas
<702>

the king
<935>

kept
<5432> (0)

the city
<4172>

of the Damascenes
<1153>

with a garrison
<5432> (5707)_,

desirous
<2309> (5723)

to apprehend
<4084> (5658)

me
<3165>_:

11:33

And
<2532>

through
<1223>

a window
<2376>

in
<1722>

a basket
<4553>

was I let down
<5465> (5681)

by
<1223>

the wall
<5038>_,

and
<2532>

escaped
<1628> (5627)

his
<846>

hands
<5495>_.

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>_.
