- In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
- In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
- Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
- Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?
- If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.

- I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among false brethren;
- I have been in labor and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.
- Apart from such external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for all the churches.
- Who is weak without my being weak? Who is led into sin without my intense concern?
- If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my weakness.
