2 Corinthians 12:1-10

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>_.
