On behalf of such an individual I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except about my weaknesses.

Since many are boasting according to human standards, I too will boast.

If I must boast, I will boast about the things that show my weakness.

But he said to me, “My grace is enough for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” So then, I will boast most gladly about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may reside in me.
