2 Corinthians 12:9-11

American Standard Version

⁹ And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may ^[a]rest upon me. ¹⁰ Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

¹¹ I am become foolish: ye compelled me; for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing was I behind ^[b]the very chiefest apostles, though I am nothing.
