2 Coríntios 12:10

Whosoever, then, seeketh to find his soul, must deliver his body unto the destruction of all afflictions, and behold, he will find his soul in the destruction of his body, and the health of the man of the spirit in the sickness of the carnal man, even as Paul also testifieth, saying, "When I am sick, it is then that I am strong." — 13 Ascetic Discourses, Discourse 11 -- On Abstinence

2 Coríntios 12:16

And in another place Paul writeth to his disciples, "Peradventure like a crafty man I have carried you off with guile;" and here also he closely uniteth guile with cunning. — 13 Ascetic Discourses, Discourse 4 -- On Faith: First Discourse on Simplicity
