2 Corinthians 12:1-7
1I mustG1163 go on boastingG2744. Although there is nothing to gainG3756G4851G3303, I will go onG2064 toG1519 visionsG3701 andG2532 revelationsG602 from the LordG2962. 2I knowG1492 a manG444 inG1722 ChristG5547 who fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 agoG4253 was caught upG726 toG2193 the thirdG5154 heavenG3772. WhetherG1535 it was inG1722 the bodyG4983 orG1535 out ofG1622 it I do not knowG3756G1492, but GodG2316 knowsG1492. 3AndG2532 I know thatG1492 this manG444—whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983 orG1535 out ofG5565 it I do not knowG3756G1492, but GodG2316 knowsG1492— 4was caught upG726 toG1519 ParadiseG3857. The things he heardG191 were inexpressibleG731G4487, things thatG3739 manG444 is not permittedG3756G1832 to tellG2980.
5I will boastG2744 aboutG5228 such a manG5108, butG1161 I will not boastG3756G2744 aboutG5228 myselfG1683, exceptG1487G3361 inG1722 my weaknessesG769. 6EvenG1063 ifG1437 I wantedG2309 to boastG2744, I would not beG3756G1510 a foolG878, becauseG1063 I would be speakingG2046 the truthG225. ButG1161 I refrainG5339, so no one will creditG3049 meG1473 with more thanG5228 he seesG991 in meG1473 orG2228 hearsG191 fromG1537 meG1473, 7orG2532 because of theseG3588 surpassingly greatG5236 revelationsG602.
SoG1352 toG2443 keep me from becoming conceitedG3361G5229,1 IG1473 was givenG1325 a thornG4647 inG3588 my fleshG4561, a messengerG32 of SatanG4567, toG2443 tormentG2852 meG1473.
