2 Corinthians 11:23-33
New King James Version
23 Are they ministers of Christ?—I speak as a fool—I am more: (A)in labors more abundant, (B)in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, (C)in deaths often. 24 From the Jews five times I received (D)forty (E)stripes minus one. 25 Three times I was (F)beaten with rods; (G)once I was stoned; three times I (H)was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep; 26 in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, (I)in perils of my own countrymen, (J)in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; 27 in weariness and toil, (K)in sleeplessness often, (L)in hunger and thirst, in (M)fastings often, in cold and nakedness— 28 besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: (N)my deep concern for all the churches. 29 (O)Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?
30 If I must boast, (P)I will boast in the things which concern my [a]infirmity. 31 (Q)The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, (R)who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. 32 (S)In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me; 33 but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped from his hands.

New International Version
23 Are they servants of Christ?(A) (I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder,(B) been in prison more frequently,(C) been flogged more severely,(D) and been exposed to death again and again.(E) 24 Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes(F) minus one. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods,(G) once I was pelted with stones,(H) three times I was shipwrecked,(I) I spent a night and a day in the open sea, 26 I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews,(J) in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city,(K) in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers.(L) 27 I have labored and toiled(M) and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food;(N) I have been cold and naked. 28 Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches.(O) 29 Who is weak, and I do not feel weak?(P) Who is led into sin,(Q) and I do not inwardly burn?
30 If I must boast, I will boast(R) of the things that show my weakness.(S) 31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is to be praised forever,(T) knows(U) that I am not lying. 32 In Damascus the governor under King Aretas had the city of the Damascenes guarded in order to arrest me.(V) 33 But I was lowered in a basket from a window in the wall and slipped through his hands.(W)
