2 Corinthians 1:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ He has rescued us from a terrible death, and he will continue to rescue us. Yes, he is the one on whom we have set our hope, and he will rescue us again, ¹¹ as you also help us by your prayers for us. Then many people will thank God^[a] on our behalf because of the favor shown us through the prayers of many.

Paul’s Reason for Boasting

¹² For this is what we boast about: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world with pure motives and godly sincerity, without earthly wisdom but with God’s grace—especially toward you.
