25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
26I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
27labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
28Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily, anxiety for all the assemblies.
29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don`t burn?
30If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forevermore, knows that I don`t lie.
