2 Corinthians 11:30

If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.

2 Corinthians 12:5-11

On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses— though if I should wish to boast, I would not be a fool, for I would be speaking the truth; but I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.”

2 Corinthians 11:16-18

I repeat, let no one think me foolish. But even if you do, accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little. What I am saying with this boastful confidence, I say not as the Lord would but as a fool. Since many boast according to the flesh, I too will boast.
