勞而苦、屢廢寢、飢而渴、屢絕食、寒而裸、

我心溫柔謙遜、宜負我軛而學我、則爾心獲安、

且以啟示莫大之故、恐我自高過甚、加刺於我身、即撒但之役擊我、免我自高過甚也、我為此求主者三、使之去我、主曰、吾恩於爾足矣、我之能於弱者而成全之、故我欣然、寧誇我弱、使基督之能庇我、我為基督、以荏弱、凌辱、空乏、窘逐、阨窮為喜、蓋我弱時則強焉、○

偕爾時乏於用、未累一人、自馬其頓來之兄弟、補我所乏、我凡事自守、不至累爾、終必自守、

惟諸事自薦為上帝役、有若恆忍、患難、空乏、阨窮、受杖、繫獄、遭亂、勤勞、不寢、不食、廉潔、知識、寬恕、仁慈、聖神之感、無偽之愛、真誠之道、上帝之能、義之干戈在於左右、或榮、或辱、或惡名、或令聞、似偽而真、似人不知而見知、似瀕死而實生、似受譴而弗亡、似憂而常樂、似貧而富眾、似無有而無不有、○

我既被轉、後則悛改、我受教而拊髀、緣負幼時之辱、含羞抱愧、

我保羅晤對則卑、暌違則勇者、以基督之溫柔和平勸爾、

我思上帝、置我儕使徒於末、如擬死者然、作劇於世、為天使與人所觀、我儕緣基督而愚、爾在基督而智、我弱爾強、爾榮我辱、迄今我儕飢渴、裹體受撻、靡有定處、且服勞躬親操作、見詬則祝、遇窘則忍、受謗則勸、成為世之污穢、物之塵垢、以迄於今、○

彼遇之於荒漠之地、獸嘷之野、護衛之、眷顧之、保之如眸子、

耶和華持我、示我勿蹈斯民之途、

或謂我書嚴厲、晤對時則身柔言鄙、

我自卑致爾高舉、傳爾上帝福音而無值、乃為罪乎、

錫爾聖善之靈、以訓迪之、使瑪那不缺於其口、賜水以解其渴、

曰、故凡士子為天國之徒者、如家主由其庫中出新舊之物焉、○

爾學基督則不然、爾果聞之、且由之受教、依耶穌之真、
