2 Corinthians 11:27-29
New English Translation

27 in hard work and toil,[a] through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, many times without food, in cold and without enough clothing.[b] 28 Apart from other things,[c] there is the daily pressure on me of my anxious concern[d] for all the churches. 29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin,[e] and I do not burn with indignation?

Footnotes

  1. 2 Corinthians 11:27 tn The two different words for labor are translated “in hard work and toil” by L&N 42.48.
  2. 2 Corinthians 11:27 tn Grk “in cold and nakedness.” Paul does not mean complete nakedness, however, which would have been repugnant to a Jew; he refers instead to the lack of sufficient clothing, especially in cold weather. A related word is used to 1 Cor 4:11, also in combination with experiencing hunger and thirst.
  3. 2 Corinthians 11:28 sn Apart from other things. Paul refers here either (1) to the external sufferings just mentioned, or (2) he refers to other things he has left unmentioned.
  4. 2 Corinthians 11:28 tn “Anxious concern,” so translated in L&N 25.224.
  5. 2 Corinthians 11:29 tn Or “who is caused to stumble.”
