2 Corinthians 12:5
2 Corinthians 12:5 King James Version (KJV)
Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.
2 Corinthians 12:1-5 The Message (MSG)
You’ve forced me to talk this way, and I do it against my better judgment. But now that we’re at it, I may as well bring up the matter of visions and revelations that God gave me. For instance, I know a man who, fourteen years ago, was seized by Christ and swept in ecstasy to the heights of heaven. I really don’t know if this took place in the body or out of it; only God knows. I also know that this man was hijacked into paradise—again, whether in or out of the body, I don’t know; God knows. There he heard the unspeakable spoken, but was forbidden to tell what he heard. This is the man I want to talk about. But about myself, I’m not saying another word apart from the humiliations.

On behalf of such a man I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses.

On behalf of such a one will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses.

2 Corinthians 12:5 New King James Version (NKJV)
Of such a one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities.

On behalf of such a man [and his experiences] I will boast; but in my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses.

That experience is worth boasting about, but I’m not going to do it. I will boast only about my weaknesses.
