Verse of the Week 2/4: 2 Corinthians 12:9

NRSV: But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.’ So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.


CEB: He said to me, 'My grace is enough for you, because power is made perfect in weakness.' So I’ll gladly spend my time bragging about my weaknesses so that Christ’s power can rest on me.


The NRSV is the New Revised Standard Version, which is the academic standard for biblical translation. The Common English Bible is a more accessible translation. Both are approved for use during worship in the Episcopal Church.
