“7To keep me from
becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, (How about The
Revelation to John, for example! Hello! Read through that a few times. How
about the sacred scriptures known as The Holy Bible!) (These are Pauper Bill’s
notes here in parentheses.) there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger
of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I
pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect
in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more
gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10That is why, for
Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in
persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” (2
