Second Letter to Corinthians 11: 18, 21- 30

11:18 Since so many glory according to the flesh, I will glory also.

11:21 I speak according to disgrace, as if we had been weak in this regard. In this matter, (I speak in foolishness) if anyone dares, I dare also.

11:22 They are Hebrews; so am I. They are Israelites; so am I. They are the offspring of Abraham; so am I.

11:23 They are the ministers of Christ (I speak as if I were less wise); more so am I: with many more labors, with numerous imprisonments, with wounds beyond measure, with frequent mortifications.

11:24 On five occasions, I received forty stripes, less one, from the Jews.

11:25 Three times, I was beaten with rods. One time, I was stoned. Three times, I was shipwrecked. For a night and a day, I was in the depths of the sea.

11:26 I have made frequent journeys, through dangerous waters, in danger of robbers, in danger from my own nation, in danger from the Gentiles, in danger in the city, in danger in the wilderness, in danger in the sea, in danger from false brothers,

11:27 with hardships and difficulties, with much vigilance, in hunger and thirst, with frequent fasts, in cold and nakedness,

11:28 agus, in addition to these things, which are external: there is my daily earnestness and solicitude for all the churches.

11:29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is scandalized, and I am not being burned?

11:30 If it is necessary to glory, I will glory of the things that concern my weaknesses.

An Soiscéal Naofa de réir Mhatha 6: 19-23

6:19	Ná roghnaigh seoda ar domhan a stóráil duit féin: áit a n-itheann meirge agus leamhan, agus áit a bhriseann gadaithe isteach agus go goid.
6:20	Ina áit sin, stórail suas duit féin seoda ar neamh: áit nach n-ídíonn meirge ná leamhan, agus áit nach briseann gadaithe isteach agus nach goid.
6:21	Cá bhfuil do stór, tá do chroí ann freisin.
6:22	Is é lampa do chorp do shúil. Má tá do shúil folláin, beidh do chorp ar fad a líonadh le solas.
6:23	Ach má tá do shúil truaillithe, Dorchófar do chorp ar fad. Más amhlaidh an solas atá ionat is dorchadas é, cé chomh mór is a bheidh an dorchadas sin!
