2 Corinthians 12:1-7

1I must needs glory, though it is not expedient; but I will comeG2064 to visionsG3701 and revelationsG602 of the LordG2962.

2I know a manG444 in ChristG5547, fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 ago (whether in the bodyG4983, I know not; or whether out of the bodyG4983, I know not; GodG2316 knoweth), such a one caught up even to the thirdG5154 heavenG3772.

3And I know such a manG444 (whether in the bodyG4983, or apartG5565 from the bodyG4983, I know not; GodG2316 knoweth),

4how that he was caught up into ParadiseG3857, and heardG191 unspeakable words, which it is not lawfulG1832 for a manG444 to utter.

5On behalfG5228 of such a oneG3588 will I glory: but on mineG1473 own behalfG5228 I will not glory, save in my weaknessesG769.

6For if I should desireG2309 to glory, I shall not beG1510 foolishG878; for I shall speakG3004 the truthG225: but I forbear, lestG3361 any man should account of me above that which he seeth me to beG1510, or heareth from me.

7And by reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelationsG602, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was givenG1325 to me a thorn in the fleshG4561, a messengerG32 of SatanG4567 to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch.
