2 Corinthians 11:18-30

18Since many boast according to flesh, I also will boast.

19For ye bear fools readily, being wise.

20For ye bear if any one bring you into bondage, if any one devour [you], if any one get [your money], if any one exalt himself, if any one beat you on the face.

21I speak as to dishonour, as though we had been weak; but wherein any one is daring, (I speak in folly,) I also am daring.

22Are they Hebrews? I also. Are they Israelites? I also. Are they seed of Abraham? I also.

23Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as being beside myself) I above measure [so]; in labours exceedingly abundant, in stripes to excess, in prisons exceedingly abundant, in deaths oft.

24From the Jews five times have I received forty [stripes], save one.

25Thrice have I been scourged, once I have been stoned, three times I have suffered shipwreck, a night and day I passed in the deep:

26in journeyings often, in perils of rivers, in perils of robbers, in perils from [my own] race, in perils from [the] nations, in perils in [the] city, in perils in [the] desert, in perils on [the] sea, in perils among false brethren;

27in labour and toil, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

28Besides those things that are without, the crowd [of cares] pressing on me daily, the burden of all the assemblies.

29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is stumbled, and I burn not?

30If it is needful to boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity.
