2 Corinthians 12:10-12
New American Standard Bible 1995
10 Therefore (A)I am well content with weaknesses, with [a]insults, with (B)distresses, with (C)persecutions, with (D)difficulties, (E)for Christ’s sake; for (F)when I am weak, then I am strong.
11 I have become (G)foolish; you yourselves compelled me. Actually I should have been commended by you, for (H)in no respect was I inferior to the [b]most eminent apostles, even though (I)I am a nobody. 12 The [c](J)signs [d]of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by [e]signs and wonders and [f]miracles.

Paul’s Concern for the Corinthians
11 I have made a fool of myself,(E) but you drove me to it. I ought to have been commended by you, for I am not in the least inferior to the “super-apostles,”[a](F) even though I am nothing.(G) 12 I persevered in demonstrating among you the marks of a true apostle, including signs, wonders and miracles.(H)
