47:011:028 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon
           me daily, the care of all the churches.

47:011:029 Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn
           not?

47:011:030 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which
           concern mine infirmities.

47:011:031 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed
           for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

47:011:032 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city
           of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me: 

47:011:033 And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall,
           and escaped his hands.

47:012:001 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory.  I will come to
           visions and revelations of the Lord.

47:012:002 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in
           the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot
           tell:  God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.

47:012:003 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the
           body, I cannot tell:  God knoweth;)

47:012:004 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable
           words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

47:012:005 Of such an one will I glory:  yet of myself I will not glory,
           but in mine infirmities.

47:012:006 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for
           I will say the truth:  but now I forbear, lest any man should
           think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he
           heareth of me.

47:012:007 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the
           abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in
           the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should
           be exalted above measure.

47:012:008 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might
           depart from me.

47:012:009 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:  for my
           strength is made perfect in weakness.  Most gladly therefore
           will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of
           Christ may rest upon me.

47:012:010 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in
           necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: 
           for when I am weak, then am I strong.

47:012:011 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me:  for I
           ought to have been commended of you:  for in nothing am I
           behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.

47:012:012 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all
           patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
