2 Corinthians 12:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵ I’ll brag about this person, but I won’t brag about myself unless it’s about my weaknesses.

⁶ If I ever wanted to brag, I wouldn’t be a fool. Instead, I would be telling the truth. But I’m going to spare you so that no one may think more of me than what he sees or hears about me, ⁷ especially because of the excessive number of revelations that I’ve had.

Therefore, to keep me from becoming conceited, I am forced to deal with a recurring problem. That problem, Satan’s messenger, torments me to keep me from being conceited.
