| 16 | To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man’s line of things made ready to our hand. | so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you. Then we will not be boasting in the work already done in another man’s territory. | so as to preach the gospel even unto the parts beyond you, and not to glory in another’s province in regard of things ready to our hand. |
In context
AI-assisted, sourced2 Corinthians 10:12-18Glory in the Lord
About 2 Corinthians 10Paul, who some say is "base" in presence but "bold" when absent, beseeches them "by the meekness and gentleness of Christ." Though "we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh," for "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God," bringing "every thought to the obedience of Christ." Answering the charge that "his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible," he refuses to compare himself with those who commend themselves, for "he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord." 2 Corinthians 10:12 Corinthians 10:32 Corinthians 10:42 Corinthians 10:52 Corinthians 10:102 Corinthians 10:122 Corinthians 10:17
