Berean Standard Bible
“For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison.”
This verse continues Paul's explanation of why he does not lose heart despite his outer self wasting away. His afflictions were anything but light by human standards: in 2 Corinthians 11 he lists beatings, shipwrecks, hunger and constant danger.
