29 I feel weak every time someone is weak. I feel upset every time someone is led into sin.
30 If I must brag, I will brag about the things that show I am weak.
31 God knows that I am not lying. He is the God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, and he is to be praised forever.
32 When I was in Damascus, the governor under King Aretas wanted to arrest me. So he put guards around the city.
33 But my friends put me in a basket. Then they put the basket through a hole in the wall and lowered me down. So I escaped from the governor.
