1. Well, it is not of profit to me to boast, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
2. I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago, (whether in the body I know not, or out of the body I know not, God knows;) such a one caught up to the third heaven.
3. And I know such a man, (whether in the body or out of the body I know not, God knows;)
4. that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable things said which it is not allowed to man to utter.
5. Of such a one I will boast, but of myself I will not boast, unless in my weaknesses.
6. For if I shall desire to boast, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth; but I forbear, lest any one should think as to me above what he sees me to be, or whatever he may hear of me.
