2 Corinthians 11:23

Paul Boasts In His Sufferings

I [am] also! ²³ Are they servants of Christ?--I am speaking as though I were beside myself--I [am] more so, with far greater labors, with far more imprisonments, with beatings to a much greater degree, in [danger of] death many times. ²⁴ Five times I received at the hands of the Jews forty [lashes] less one.
