‏ 2 Corinthians 7:4

 I overflow with joy in all our affliction ( υπερπερισσευομα τη χαρα επ παση τη θλιψε ημων ). A thoroughly Pauline sentiment.  Περισσευω means to overflow, as we have seen.  Hυπερ-περισσευω (late word, so far only here and Byzantine writers) is to have a regular flood. Vulgate superabundo.
