2 Corinthians 12:1-13

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>_.
