2 Corinthians 12:8-9

Expanded Bible

⁸ I ·begged [pleaded with] the Lord three times ·to take this problem away from [^Lthat it might leave] me. ⁹ But he said to me, “My grace is ·enough for you [sufficient for you; all you need]. ·When you are weak, my power is made perfect in you [^LFor (my) power is perfected in weakness].” So I am very happy to ·brag [boast] about my weaknesses. Then Christ’s power can ·live [reside; or rest] in me.
