1 tn Grk “But,” translated here as “Yet” for stylistic reasons (note the use of “but” in v. 2).

2 tn Or “worked through”; the same word is also used in relation to Paul later in this verse.

3 tn Or “his ministry as an apostle.”

4 tn Grk “to the circumcision,” i.e., the Jewish people.

5 tn Grk “also empowered me to the Gentiles.”

6 tn Paul is probably referring to scars from wounds received in the service of Jesus, although the term στίγμα (stigma) may imply ownership and suggest these scars served as brands (L&N 8.55; 33.481; 90.84).
