⁷ But we have this treasure in ^(A)earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of ^(B)the power will be of God and not from ourselves;

⁷ in ^(A)the word of truth, in ^(B)the power of God; by ^(C)the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left,

⁹ And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for ^(A)power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather ^(B)boast ^[a]about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
