while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.

By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively.
