Paul’s Vision

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:1 -

Boasting G2744 is necessary G1163, though G3303 it is G4851 not beneficial G4851; but I will go G2064 on to visions G3701 and revelations G602 [fn]of the Lord G2962.

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:2 - I know G6063 a man G444 in Christ G5547, who fourteen G1180 years G2094 ago G4253—whether G1535 in the body G4983 I do not know G6063, or G1535 out of the body G4983 I do not know G6063, God G2316 knows G6063—such G5108 a G5108 man G5108 was caught G726 up to the third G5154 heaven G3772.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:3 - And I know G6063 how G6063 such G5108 a G5108 man G444—whether G1535 in the body G4983 or G1535 apart G5565 from the body G4983 I do not know G6063, God G2316 knows G6063
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:4 - was caught G726 up into Paradise G3857 and heard G191 inexpressible G731 words G4487, which G3739 a man G444 is not permitted G1832 to speak G2980.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:5 - In G5228 behalf G5228 of such G5108 a G5108 man G5108 I will boast G2744; but in G5228 my own G1683 behalf G5228 I will not boast G2744, except G1508 regarding G1722 my weaknesses G769.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:6 - For if G1437 I do wish G2309 to boast G2744 I will not be foolish G878, for I will be speaking G3004 the truth G225; but I refrain G5339 from this, so G3361 that G3361 no G3361 one G5100 will credit G3049 me with more G5228 than G5228 he sees G991 in me or G2228 hears G191 from me.

A Thorn in the Flesh

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:7 - Because of the extraordinary G5236 greatness of the revelations G602, for this G1352 reason G1352, to keep G3361 me from exalting G5229 myself, there was given G1325 to me a thorn G4647 in the flesh G4561, a messenger G32 of Satan G4567 to [fn]torment G2852 me—to keep G3361 me from exalting G5229 myself!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:8 - Concerning G5228 this G3778 I pleaded G3870 with the Lord G2962 three G5151 times G5151 that it might leave G868 me.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:9 - And He has said G3004 to me, “My grace G5485 is sufficient G714 for you, for power G1411 is perfected G5055 in weakness G769.” Most G2234 gladly G2234, therefore G3767, I will rather G3123 boast G2744 [fn]about G1722 my weaknesses G769, so G2443 that G2443 the power G1411 of Christ G5547 may dwell G1981 in me.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:10 - Therefore G1352 I delight G2106 in weaknesses G769, in [fn]insults G5196, in distresses G318, in persecutions G1375, in difficulties G4730, in G5228 behalf G5228 of Christ G5547; for when G3752 I am G770 weak G770, then G5119 I am G1510 strong G1415.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:11 -

I have become G1096 foolish G878; you yourselves G4771 compelled G315 me. Actually G1063 I should G3784 have been commended G4921 by you, since G1063 I was in no G3762 respect G3762 inferior G5302 to the [fn]most G6088 eminent G6088 apostles G652, even G2532 though G1487 I am G1510 a nobody G3762.

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:12 - The distinguishing G4592 marks G4592 [fn]of a true apostle G652 were performed G2716 among G1722 you with all G3956 perseverance G5281, by [fn]signs G4592, wonders G5059, and [fn]miracles G1411.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:13 - For in what G5101 respect were you treated G2274 as G2274 inferior G2274 to the rest G3062 of the churches G1577, except G1508 that I myself G846 did not become G2655 a G2655 burden G2655 to G2655 you? Forgive G5483 me this G3778 wrong G93!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:14 -

Here G2400 for this G3778 third G5154 time G5154 I am G2192 ready G2093 to come G2064 to you, and I will not be G2655 a G2655 burden G2655 to G2655 you; for I do not seek G2212 what is yours G4771, but you; for children G5043 are not responsible G3784 to save G2343 up G2343 for their parents G1118, but parents G1118 for their children G5043.

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:15 - I will most G2234 gladly G2234 spend G1159 and be expended G1550 for your souls G5590. If G1487 I love G25 you more G4056, am I to be loved G25 less G2276?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:16 - But be that as it may, I did not burden G2599 you myself G1473; nevertheless G235, devious G3835 person G3835 that I am, I took G2983 you in by deceit G1388.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:17 - Certainly I have not taken G4122 advantage G4122 of you through G1223 any G5100 of those whom G3739 I have sent G649 to you, have I?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:18 - I urged G3870 Titus G5103 to go, and I sent G4882 the brother G80 with him. Titus G5103 did not take G4122 any G4122 advantage G4122 of you, did he? Did we not [fn]conduct G4043 ourselves [fn]in the same G846 spirit G4151 and walk in the same G846 steps G2487?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:19 -

All G3819 this G3819 time G3819 [fn]you have been thinking G1380 that we are defending G626 ourselves to you. Actually, it is in G2713 the G2713 sight G2713 of God G2316 that we have been speaking G2980 in Christ G5547; and all G3956 for building G3619 you up G3619, beloved G27.

Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:20 - For I am G5399 afraid G5399 that perhaps G4458 when I come G2064 I may find G2147 you to be not what G3634 I wish G2309, and may be found G2147 by you to be not what G3634 you wish G2309; that perhaps G4458 there will be strife G2054, jealousy G2205, angry G2372 tempers G2372, selfishness G2052, slanders G2636, gossip G5587, arrogance G5450, disturbances G181;
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:21 - I am afraid that when I come G2064 again G3825 my God G2316 may humiliate G5013 me before G4314 you, and I may mourn G3996 over many G4183 of those G3588 who have sinned G4258 in G4258 the G4258 past G4258 and not repented G3340 of the impurity G167, sexual G4202 immorality G4202, and indecent G766 behavior G766 which G3739 they have practiced G4238.
