2 Corinthians 12:1--13:14

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}
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>_.
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);)
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}
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>_.
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>_.
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)_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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}
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>_.
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>_?
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>_?
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>_.
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>_:
[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)_.
This
<5124>
[is] the third
<5154>
[time] I am coming
<2064> (5736)
to
<4314>
you
<5209>_.
In
<1909>
the mouth
<4750>
of two
<1417>
or
<2532>
three
<5140>
witnesses
<3144>
shall
<2476> (0)
every
<3956>
word
<4487>
be established
<2476> (5701)_.
I told you before
<4280> (5758)_,
and
<2532>
foretell you
<4302> (5719)_,
as if
<5613>
I were present
<3918> (5752)_,
the second
<1208>
time; and
<2532>
being absent
<548> (5752)
now
<3568>
I write
<1125> (5719)
to them which heretofore have sinned
<4258> (5761)_,
and
<2532>
to all
<3956>
other
<3062>_,
that
<3754>_,
if
<1437>
I come
<2064> (5632)
again
<1519> <3825>_,
I will
<5339> (0)
not
<3756>
spare
<5339> (5695)_:
Since
<1893>
ye seek
<2212> (5719)
a proof
<1382>
of Christ
<5547>
speaking
<2980> (5723)
in
<1722>
me
<1698>_,
which
<3739>
to
<1519>
you-ward
<5209>
is
<770> (0)
not
<3756>
weak
<770> (5719)_,
but
<235>
is mighty
<1414> (5719)
in
<1722>
you
<5213>_.
For
<1063> <2532>
though
<1487>
he was crucified
<4717> (5681)
through
<1537>
weakness
<769>_,
yet
<235>
he liveth
<2198> (5719)
by
<1537>
the power
<1411>
of God
<2316>_.
For
<1063>
we
<2249>
also
<2532>
are weak
<770> (5719)
in
<1722>
him
<846>_,
but
<235>
we shall live
<2198> (5695)
with
<4862>
him
<846>
by
<1537>
the power
<1411>
of God
<2316>
toward
<1519>
you
<5209>_.
{in him: or, with him}
Examine
<3985> (5720)
yourselves
<1438>_,
whether
<1487>
ye be
<2075> (5748)
in
<1722>
the faith
<4102>_;
prove
<1381> (5720)
your own selves
<1438>_.

<2228>
Know ye
<1921> (5719)
not
<3756>
your own selves
<1438>_,
how that
<3754>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>
is
<2076> (5748)
in
<1722>
you
<5213>_,
except
<1509>
ye be
<2075> (5748)
reprobates
<5100> <96>_?
But
<1161>
I trust
<1679> (5719)
that
<3754>
ye shall know
<1097> (5695)
that
<3754>
we
<2249>
are
<2070> (5748)
not
<3756>
reprobates
<96>_.
Now
<1161>
I pray
<2172> (5736)
to
<4314>
God
<2316>
that ye
<5209>
do
<3361> <4160> (5658)
no
<3367>
evil
<2556>_;
not
<3756>
that
<2443>
we
<2249>
should appear
<5316> (5652)
approved
<1384>_,
but
<235>
that
<2443>
ye
<5210>
should do
<4160> (5725)
that which is honest
<2570>_,
though
<1161>
we
<2249>
be
<5600> (5753)
as
<5613>
reprobates
<96>_.
For
<1063>
we can do
<1410> (5736)
nothing
<3756> <5100>
against
<2596>
the truth
<225>_,
but
<235>
for
<5228>
the truth
<225>_.
For
<1063>
we
<2249>
are glad
<5463> (5719)_,
when
<3752>
we are weak
<770> (5725)_,
and
<1161>
ye
<5210>
are
<5600> (5753)
strong
<1415>_:
and
<1161>
this
<5124>
also
<2532>
we wish
<2172> (5736)_,
[even] your
<5216>
perfection
<2676>_.
{perfection: or, reformation, or, restoration}
Therefore
<5124> <1223>
I write
<1125> (5719)
these things
<5023>
being absent
<548> (5752)_,
lest
<3363>
being present
<3918> (5752)
I should use
<5530> (5667)
sharpness
<664>_,
according
<2596>
to the power
<1849>
which
<3739>
the Lord
<2962>
hath given
<1325> (5656)
me
<3427>
to
<1519>
edification
<3619>_,
and
<2532>
not
<3756>
to
<1519>
destruction
<2506>_.
Finally
<3063>_,
brethren
<80>_,
farewell
<5463> (5720)_.
Be perfect
<2675> (5744)_,
be of good comfort
<3870> (5744)_,
be of one
<846>
mind
<5426> (5720)_,
live in peace
<1514> (5720)_;
and
<2532>
the God
<2316>
of love
<26>
and
<2532>
peace
<1515>
shall be
<2071> (5704)
with
<3326>
you
<5216>_.
Greet
<782> (5663)
one another
<240>
with
<1722>
an holy
<40>
kiss
<5370>_.
All
<3956>
the saints
<40>
salute
<782> (5736)
you
<5209>_.
The grace
<5485>
of the Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
and
<2532>
the love
<26>
of God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
the communion
<2842>
of the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_,
[be] with
<3326>
you
<5216>
all
<3956>_.
Amen
<281>_.
