2Corinthians:12:5-9
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Of such an one will I glory (
5695 ):
yet of myself I will not glory (
5695 ),
but in mine infirmities .
*
For though I would desire (
5661 )
to glory (
5664 ),
I shall not be (
5704 )
a fool ;
for I will say (
5692 )
the truth :
but now I forbear (
5736 ),
lest any man should think (
5667 )
of me above that which he seeth (
5719 )
me to be ,
or that he heareth (
5719 )
of me .
*
And lest I should be exalted above measure (
5747 )
through the abundance of the revelations ,
there was given (
5681 )
to me a thorn in the flesh ,
the messenger of Satan to buffet (
5725 )
me ,
lest I should be exalted above measure (
5747 ).
*
For this thing I besought (
5656 )
the Lord thrice ,
that it might depart (
5632 )
from me .
*
And he said (
5758 )
unto me ,
My grace is sufficient (
5719 )
for thee :
for my strength is made perfect (
5743 )
in weakness .
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory (
5695 )
in my infirmities ,
that the power of Christ may rest (
5661 )
upon me .
