2 Corinthians 12:7-10

7So qto keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations,
Or  hears from me, even because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations. So to keep me from becoming conceited
sa thorn was given me in the flesh, ta messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited.
8 uThree times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. 9But he said to me, vMy grace is sufficient for you, for wmy power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that xthe power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 yFor the sake of Christ, then, zI am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For aawhen I am weak, then I am strong.
