2 Corinthians 11:26

11:26 I have been on journeys many times, in dangers from rivers, in dangers from robbers, ³  in dangers from my own countrymen, in dangers from Gentiles, in dangers in the city, in dangers in the wilderness, ⁴  in dangers at sea, in dangers from false brothers,

[6:5]  ¹ tn Or “rebellions” (uprisings in open defiance of civil authority).

[6:5]  ² tn Usually κόποις (kopois) has been translated as “labors” or “hard work,” but see Matt 26:10 where it means “trouble”; “distress” (L&N 22.7). In this context with so many other terms denoting suffering and difficulty, such a meaning is preferable.

[11:26]  ³ tn Or “bandits.” The word normally refers more to highwaymen (“robbers”) but can also refer to insurrectionists or revolutionaries (“bandits”).

[11:26]  ⁴ tn Or “desert.”
