2 Corinthians 11:18-30

18SinceG1893 1manyG4183 boastG2744 2accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, I will boastG2744 alsoG2532. 19For you, 3beingG1510 so wiseG5429, tolerateG430 the foolishG878 gladlyG2234. 20For you tolerateG430 it ifG1487 anyoneG5100 4enslavesG2615 you, ifG1487 anyoneG5100 5devoursG2719 you, ifG1487 anyoneG5100 6takesG2983 advantage of you, ifG1487 anyoneG5100 7exaltsG1869 himself, ifG1487 anyoneG5100 8hitsG1194 you in the faceG4383. 21To my 9shameG819 I must sayG3004 that we have been 10weakG770 by comparison.

But in whateverG3739G302 respect anyoneG5100 else 11isG5111 boldG5111--I am 12speakingG3004 in foolishnessG877--I tooG2532 amG5111 boldG5111. 22Are they 13HebrewsG1445? 14SoG2532 am I. Are they 15IsraelitesG2475? 16SoG2532 am I. Are they 1718descendantsG4690 of AbrahamG11? 19SoG2532 am I. 23Are they 20servantsG1249 of ChristG5547?--I am speakingG2980 as if insaneG3912--I moreG5228 soG5228; in 21farG4056 moreG4056 laborsG2873, in 22farG4056 moreG4056 imprisonmentsG5438, 2324beatenG4127 timesG5234 withoutG5234 numberG5234, oftenG4178 in danger of 25deathG2288. 24FiveG3999 timesG3999 I receivedG2983 from the JewsG2453 26thirty-nineG5065G3844G1520 lashes. 25ThreeG5151 timesG5151 I was 27beatenG4463 withG4463 rodsG4463, onceG530 I was 28stonedG3034, threeG5151 timesG5151 I was shipwreckedG3489, a nightG3574 andG3574 aG3574 dayG3574 I have spentG4160 adrift at seaG1037. 26I have been on frequentG4178 journeysG3597, in dangersG2794 from riversG4215, dangersG2794 from robbersG3027, dangersG2794 from my 29countrymenG1085, dangersG2794 from the 30GentilesG1484, dangersG2794 in the 31cityG4172, dangersG2794 in the wildernessG2047, dangersG2794 at seaG2281, dangersG2794 amongG1722 32falseG5569 brothersG5569; 27I have been in 33laborG2873 and hardshipG3449, throughG1722 manyG4178 sleeplessG70 nightsG70, in 34hungerG3042 and thirstG1373, oftenG4178 35withoutG3521 foodG3521, in coldG5592 and 3637exposureG1132. 28ApartG5565 from such 38externalG3924 things, there is the dailyG2596G2250 pressureG1988 on me of concernG3308 for 39allG3956 the churchesG1577. 29WhoG5101 is 40weakG770 withoutG2532G3756 my being weakG770? WhoG5101 is 41ledG4624 intoG4624 sinG4624 42withoutG2532G3756 my intenseG4448 concernG4448?

30IfG1487 I haveG1163 to boastG2744, I will boastG2744 of whatG769 pertains to my 43weaknessG769.
