^8 (A)Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. ⁹ But he said to me, ^(B)“My grace is sufficient for you, for ^(C)my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that ^(D)the power of Christ may rest upon me.

That You May Know

¹³ I write ^(A)these things to you who ^(B)believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. ¹⁴ And this is ^(C)the confidence that we have toward him, that ^(D)if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. ¹⁵ And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
