2 Corinthians 12:5

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses.

See the chapter Copy

This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, “He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.”

And I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling;

If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.

I must boast; there is nothing to be gained by it, but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.
