2 Corinthians 12:8-10

English Standard Version

^8 (A)Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. ⁹ But he said to me, ^(B)“My grace is sufficient for you, for ^(C)my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that ^(D)the power of Christ may rest upon me. ^10 (E)For the sake of Christ, then, ^(F)I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For ^(G)when I am weak, then I am strong.
