2 Corinthians 12:5
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.
In context
3 And I know that this man—whether in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows—
4 was caught up to Paradise. The things he heard were too sacred for words, things that man is not permitted to tell.
5 I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.
6 Even if I wanted to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me,
7 or because of these surpassingly great revelations. So to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.
