2 Corinthians 12 : 1 (YLT)

To boast, really, is not profitable for me, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

2 Corinthians 12 : 2 (YLT)

I have known a man in Christ, fourteen years ago -- whether in the body I have not known, whether out of the body I have not known, God hath known -- such an one being caught away unto the third heaven;

2 Corinthians 12 : 3 (YLT)

and I have known such a man -- whether in the body, whether out of the body, I have not known, God hath known, --

2 Corinthians 12 : 4 (YLT)

that he was caught away to the paradise, and heard unutterable sayings, that it is not possible for man to speak.

2 Corinthians 12 : 5 (YLT)

Of such an one I will boast, and of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities,

2 Corinthians 12 : 6 (YLT)

for if I may wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for truth I will say; but I forebear, lest any one in regard to me may think anything above what he doth see me, or doth hear anything of me;

2 Corinthians 12 : 7 (YLT)

and that by the exceeding greatness of the revelations I might not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of the Adversary, that he might buffet me, that I might not be exalted overmuch.

2 Corinthians 12 : 8 (YLT)

Concerning this thing thrice the Lord did I call upon, that it might depart from me,

2 Corinthians 12 : 9 (YLT)

and He said to me, `Sufficient for thee is My grace, for My power in infirmity is perfected;` most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Christ may rest on me:

2 Corinthians 12 : 10 (YLT)

wherefore I am well pleased in infirmities, in damages, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses -- for Christ; for whenever I am infirm, then I am powerful;

2 Corinthians 12 : 11 (YLT)

I have become a fool -- boasting; ye -- ye did compel me; for I ought by you to have been commended, for in nothing was I behind the very chiefest apostles -- even if I am nothing.

2 Corinthians 12 : 12 (YLT)

The signs, indeed, of the apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds,

2 Corinthians 12 : 13 (YLT)

for what is there in which ye were inferior to the rest of the assemblies, except that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me this injustice!

2 Corinthians 12 : 14 (YLT)

Lo, a third time I am ready to come unto you, and I will not be a burden to you, for I seek not yours, but you, for the children ought not for the parents to lay up, but the parents for the children,

2 Corinthians 12 : 15 (YLT)

and I most gladly will spend and be entirely spent for your souls, even if, more abundantly loving you, less I am loved.

2 Corinthians 12 : 16 (YLT)

And be it *so , I -- I did not burden you, but being crafty, with guile I did take you;

2 Corinthians 12 : 17 (YLT)

any one of those whom I have sent unto you -- by him did I take advantage of you?

2 Corinthians 12 : 18 (YLT)

I entreated Titus, and did send with *him the brother; did Titus take advantage of you? in the same spirit did we not walk? -- did we not in the same steps?

2 Corinthians 12 : 19 (YLT)

Again, think ye that to you we are making defence? before God in Christ do we speak; and the all things, beloved, *are for your up-building,

2 Corinthians 12 : 20 (YLT)

for I fear lest, having come, not such as I wish I may find you, and I -- I may be found by you such as ye do not wish, lest there be strifes, envyings, wraths, revelries, evil-speakings, whisperings, puffings up, insurrections,

2 Corinthians 12 : 21 (YLT)

lest again having come, my God may humble me in regard to you, and I may bewail many of those having sinned before, and not having reformed concerning the uncleanness, and whoredom, and lasciviousness, that they did practise.
