2 Corinthians 11:25-33
25Three times I was 1beaten with rods, once I was 2stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the deep. 26I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my 3countrymen, dangers from the 4Gentiles, dangers in the 5city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among 6false brethren; 27I have been in 7labor and hardship, 8through many sleepless nights, in 9hunger and thirst, often 10without food, in cold and 1112exposure. 28Apart from such 13external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for 14all the churches. 29Who is 15weak without my being weak? Who is 16led into sin 17without my intense concern?
30If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my 18weakness. 31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, 19He who is blessed forever, 20knows that I am not lying. 32In 21Damascus the ethnarch under Aretas the king was 22guarding the city of the Damascenes in order to seize me, 33and I was let down in a basket 23through a window 24in the wall, and so escaped his hands.
