What things befell me (oia moi egeneto). Qualitative relative (oia) referring to actual experiences of Paul (egeneto, second aorist middle indicative of ginomai) more fully described in II Corinthians 11:30-33. The Acts of the Apostles tell of his experiences in Antioch in Pisidia (Acts 13:14, Acts 13:45, Acts 13:50), in Iconium (Acts 14:1-5), in Lystra (Acts 14:6-19). See also Galatians 2:11.
What persecutions I endured (oiouv diwgmouv uphnegka). Qualitative relative again with diwgmouv. The verb is first aorist active indicative of upoferw, old verb, to bear under as in I Corinthians 10:13.
Delivered me (me erusato). First aorist middle of ruomai, old verb, with ek here as in I Thessalonians 1:10. Used again of the Lord Jesus in II Timothy 4:18.
