1It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord - Kurios.
2I knew a man in Moshiach [Messiah] above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God-The Father knows;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
3And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God-The Father knows;)
4How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
5Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in my infirmities.
6For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but [now] I refrain (restrain; refrein from acting) , lest any man should think of me above that which he sees me [to be] , or [that] he hears of me.
7And 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 [the adversary] to buffet (to strike with a clenched fist) me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8For this thing I besought the Lord - Kurios thrice, that it might depart from me.
9And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for youi : for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Moshiach [Messiah] may rest upon me.
10Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Moshiach [Messiah] ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
11I am become a fool in glorying; you2f have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very most important apostles, though I be nothing.
12Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
13For what is it wherein you2f were inferior to other churches, except [it be] that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.
14Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
15And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.
16But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with deceit.
17Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?
18I desired Titus [nurse] , and with [him] I sent a brother. Did Titus [nurse] make a gain of you? walked we not in the same Spirit [Ruach] ? [walked we] not in the same steps?
19Again, think you2f that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God-The Father in Moshiach [Messiah] : but [we do] all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.
20For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and [that] I shall be found unto you such as you2f would not: lest [there be] debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
21[And] lest, when I come again, my God-The Father will humble me among you, and [that] I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness (being lustful, loose or lewd; promoting lustful desires in others) which they have committed.
