26 In journeying I was often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of mine own nation, in perils among the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren,

28 [b]Beside the things which are outward, I am cumbered daily, and have the care of all the Churches.
