2 Corinthians 12:8-10 For this thing I sought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

AKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁸ For this thing I sought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. ⁹ And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest on me. ¹⁰ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
