2 Corinthians 12:9-11

New American Standard Bible

⁹ And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for ^(A)power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather ^(B)boast ^[a]about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. ¹⁰ Therefore ^(C)I delight in weaknesses, in ^[b]insults, in ^(D)distresses, in ^(E)persecutions, in ^(F)difficulties, ^(G)in behalf of Christ; for ^(H)when I am weak, then I am strong.

¹¹ I have become ^(I)foolish; you yourselves compelled me. Actually I should have been commended by you, since I was ^(J)in no respect inferior to the ^[c]most eminent apostles, even though ^(K)I am a nobody.
