2 Korintus 11:24-25

11:24 Five times I received from the Jews forty lashes less one. ¹  11:25 Three times I was beaten with a rod. ²  Once I received a stoning. ³  Three times I suffered shipwreck. A night and a day I spent adrift in the open sea.

Kisah Para Rasul 9:16

9:16 For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.” ⁹ 

[11:24]  ¹ tn Grk “forty less one”; this was a standard sentence. “Lashes” is supplied to clarify for the modern reader what is meant.

[11:25]  ² sn Beaten with a rod refers to the Roman punishment of admonitio according to BDAG 902 s.v. ῥαβδίζω. Acts 16:22 describes one of these occasions in Philippi; in this case it was administered by the city magistrates, who had wide powers in a military colony.

[6:4]  ⁶ tn Or “in trouble and suffering.”

[6:5]  ⁷ tn Or “rebellions” (uprisings in open defiance of civil authority).

[6:5]  ⁸ tn Usually κόποις (kopois) has been translated as “labors” or “hard work,” but see Matt 26:10 where it means “trouble”; “distress” (L&N 22.7). In this context with so many other terms denoting suffering and difficulty, such a meaning is preferable.

[9:16]  ⁹ tn Or “because of my name.” BDAG 1031 s.v. ὑπέρ 2 lists Acts 9:16 as an example of ὑπέρ (Juper) used to indicate “the moving cause or reason, because of, for the sake of, for.”
