Second letter to the Corinthians 1:8

Dear brothers and sisters in faith, I do not want you to be ignorant of the affliction we endured in [the province] Asia [present-day western Turkey, where Ephesus was the capital], how we were so overwhelmed (pressed), far beyond our strength, that we even despaired of life (there was no way out).
