2 Corinthians 12:2-4
Living Bible
2-3 Fourteen years ago I[a] was taken up to heaven for a visit. Don’t ask me whether my body was there or just my spirit, for I don’t know; only God can answer that. But anyway, there I was in paradise, 4 and heard things so astounding that they are beyond a man’s power to describe or put in words (and anyway I am not allowed to tell them to others).

2 Corinthians 12:2-4
New King James Version
2 I know a man (A)in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a one (B)was caught up to the third heaven. 3 And I know such a man—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— 4 how he was caught up into (C)Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
