2 Corinthians 12

1 To boast (it behooves [me], *N+KO) not (is it profitable indeed, *N+KO) I will go on (however *N+kO) to visions and revelations of [the] Lord.

2 I know a man in Christ ago years fourteen — whether in [the] body not I know, or out of the body not I know, God knows — having been caught up such a man until [the] third heaven.

3 And I know such a man — whether in [the] body or (out of *N+kO) the body, not I know, God knows —

4 that he was caught up into Paradise and he heard inexpressible declaration which not being permitted to man to speak.

5 Concerning such a man I will boast, concerning however myself not I will boast only except in the weaknesses (of mine; *K)

6 If for I shall desire to boast, not I will be a fool; [the] truth for I will be speaking; I refrain however lest anyone to me myself may credit more than what he sees in me, or hears anything of me

7 and the by surpassingness of the revelations. (Therefore *NO) that not I may become conceited, was given to me a thorn in [my] flesh, a messenger of Satan that me he may buffet so that not I may become conceited.

8 For this three times the Lord I begged that it may depart from me.

9 And He has said to me; Suffices you the grace of Mine; the for power (of mine *K) in weakness (is finished. *N+kO) Most gladly therefore rather will I boast in the weaknesses of mine, so that may rest upon me myself the power of Christ.

10 Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions (and *N+kO) difficulties for Christ; when for I may be weak then strong I am.

11 I have become a fool (boasting; *K) you yourselves me compelled. I myself for was being obliged by you to have been commended; [In] no[thing] for was I inferior to those most eminent most eminent apostles, if even no [thing] I am.

12 The indeed signs of the apostle were performed among you in all perseverance, (in *k) signs (both *no) and in wonders and in miracles.

13 In what for is it that you were inferior beyond the rest [of the] churches, only except that myself I myself not did burden you? do forgive me wrong this!

14 Behold third time (this *no) ready I am to come to you and not I will burden (you; *k) not for I seek what [is] yours but you. Not for ought the children for the parents to treasure up but the parents for the children;

15 I myself now most gladly will spend and I will be utterly spent for the souls of you, If (even *k) more abundantly you (loving *NK+o) (less *N+kO) I am loved!

16 it should be however, I myself not did burden you; but being crafty by trickery you I caught.

17 Surely not any of whom I have sent to you, through him did I exploit you?

18 I urged Titus [to go] and sent with [him] the brother; surely not ever did exploit you Titus? Surely in the same spirit did we walk? Not in the same steps?

19 (Previously *N+KO) you have been thinking that to you we are presenting a defense. (before *N+kO) God in Christ we speak. but all things, beloved, for your edification.

20 I fear for lest perhaps having come not such as I wish I may find you, and I myself and I myself may be found by you such as not you do wish, lest perhaps (a quarrel, jealousy, *N+kO) anger, contentions slander, gossip, conceit, disorder,

21 lest again (when was coming *N+kO) (I *no) (he may humble *NK+o) me the God, of mine before you, and I may mourn over many of those having sinned before and not having repented of the impurity and of sexual immorality and of sensuality that they have practiced.
