²³But I am hard pressed between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.

³I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I don’t know; God knows), ⁴how he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
