NASB
"On behalf of such a man I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses."
— 2 Corinthians 12:5, NASB
“Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.”
“On behalf of such a one will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses. ”
“On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.”
“On behalf of such an individual I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except about my weaknesses.”
“For such an one I will glory: but for myself I will glory nothing but in my infirmities.”
“On account of such a one I will have glory: for myself I will take no glory, but only in my feeble body.”
“Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.”
I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago--whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, God knows--such a man was caught up to the third heaven.
And I know how such a man--whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, God knows--
was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which a man is not permitted to speak.
On behalf of such a man I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses.
For if I do wish to boast I will not be foolish, for I will be speaking the truth; but I refrain from this, so that no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me.
Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me--to keep me from exalting myself!
Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me.
