— 2 Corinthians 12:12, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.”
“Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, by signs and wonders and mighty works. ”
“Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty works.”
“Indeed, the signs of an apostle were performed among you with great perseverance by signs and wonders and powerful deeds.”
“Yet the signs of my apostleship have been wrought on you, in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.”
“Truly the signs of an Apostle were done among you in quiet strength, with wonders and acts of power.”
“Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.”
And he said to me: “My grace is sufficient for you. For virtue is perfected in weakness.” And so, willingly shall I glory in my weaknesses, so that the virtue of Christ may live within me.
Because of this, I am pleased in my infirmity: in reproaches, in difficulties, in persecutions, in distresses, for the sake of Christ. For when I am weak, then I am powerful.
I have become foolish; you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you. For I have been nothing less than those who claim to be above the measure of Apostles, even though I am nothing.
And the seal of my Apostleship has been set over you, with all patience, with signs and wonders and miracles.
For what is there that you have had which is less than the other churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this injury.
Behold, this is the third time I have prepared to come to you, and yet I will not be a burden to you. For I am seeking not the things that are yours, but you yourselves. And neither should the children store up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
And so, very willingly, I will spend and exhaust myself for the sake of your souls, loving you more, while being loved less.
