Are they servants of Christ?( I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again.

Are they serving Christ? I am serving him even more. I’m out of my mind to talk like this! I have worked much harder. I have been in prison more often. I have suffered terrible beatings. Again and again I almost died.

Are they servants of Christ? I am a better one— I am talking like a madman— with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death.

Are they servants of Christ? I know I sound like a madman, but I have served him far more! I have worked harder, been put in prison more often, been whipped times without number, and faced death again and again.

Are they servants of Christ? I’m talking like a madman— I’m a better one: with far more labors, many more imprisonments, far worse beatings, many times near death.

Are they servants of Christ?— I am speaking as if insane— I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death.

Are they ministers of Christ?— I speak as a fool— I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.

Are they ministers of Christ?( I speak as one beside himself) I more; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths oft.

Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; (niv)

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them— yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. (niv)

Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, (niv)

I will show him how much he must suffer for my name.” (niv)

He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant— not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. (niv)

Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one.Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, (niv)

known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; (niv)

for which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God’s word is not chained. (niv)

Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. (niv)

And as for us, why do we endanger ourselves every hour?I face death every day— yes, just as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord.If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus with no more than human hopes, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised,“ Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” (niv)

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe— as the Lord has assigned to each his task. (niv)

To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me. (niv)

As it is written:“ For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” (niv)

As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. (niv)

You are judging by appearances. If anyone is confident that they belong to Christ, they should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as they do. (niv)

When we got to Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself, with a soldier to guard him. (niv)

When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a centurion named Julius, who belonged to the Imperial Regiment. (niv)

I do not think I am in the least inferior to those“ super- apostles.” (niv)

At the same time he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe, so he sent for him frequently and talked with him.When two years had passed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, but because Felix wanted to grant a favor to the Jews, he left Paul in prison. (niv)

After they had been severely flogged, they were thrown into prison, and the jailer was commanded to guard them carefully.When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks. (niv)

We sent Timothy, who is our brother and co- worker in God’s service in spreading the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith, (niv)

For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles— (niv)

You suffered along with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. (niv)

I only know that in every city the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me. (niv)

for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. (niv)

Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, thinking he was dead. (niv)

For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him. (niv)

For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. (niv)

Since they were spending many days there, Festus discussed Paul’s case with the king. He said:“ There is a man here whom Felix left as a prisoner. (niv)

As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. (niv)

Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, tied his own hands and feet with it and said,“ The Holy Spirit says,‘ In this way the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and will hand him over to the Gentiles.’” (niv)

If you point these things out to the brothers and sisters, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed. (niv)

yet I prefer to appeal to you on the basis of love. It is as none other than Paul— an old man and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus— (niv)

I have made a fool of myself, but you drove me to it. I ought to have been commended by you, for I am not in the least inferior to the“ super-apostles,” even though I am nothing.I persevered in demonstrating among you the marks of a true apostle, including signs, wonders and miracles. (niv)

So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God. (niv)

May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains. (niv)

But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. (niv)

This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. (niv)
