2 Corinthians 13:9

For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong. And we pray for this: that you may become fully qualified. ¹ 

We are glad whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is for your perfection.

For we rejoice when we ourselves are weak but you are strong; this we also pray for, that you be made complete.

We are glad to be weak, if you are really strong. What we pray for is your restoration to maturity.

We couldn't possibly do otherwise. We don't just put up with our limitations; we celebrate them, and then go on to celebrate every strength, every triumph of the truth in you. We pray hard that it will all come together in your lives.

For we are glad when we are feeble and you are strong: and this is our prayer, even that you may be made complete.

For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. This is what we pray for, that you may become perfect.

For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. And this also we pray, that you may be made complete.

For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong. And we pray for this: that you may become fully qualified. ¹
