2 Corinthians 10:1-7
1NowG1161 1I, PaulG3972, myselfG846 2urgeG3870 you by the 3meeknessG4240 and gentlenessG1932 of ChristG5547--I whoG3739 4am 5meekG5011 when faceG4383 to faceG4383 with you, but boldG2292 towardG1519 you when absentG548! 2I askG1189 that 6when I am presentG3918 I need not be boldG2292 with the confidenceG4006 with whichG3739 I proposeG3049 to be courageousG5111 againstG1909 7someG5100, who regardG3049 us as ifG5613 we walkedG4043 8accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561. 3For though we walkG4043 in the fleshG4561, we do not warG4754 9accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, 4for the 10weaponsG3696 of our warfareG4752 are not of the fleshG4559, but 11divinelyG2316 powerfulG1415 12for the destructionG2506 of fortressesG3794. 5We are destroyingG2507 speculationsG3053 and everyG3956 13loftyG5313 thingG5313 raisedG1869 up againstG2596 the knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316, and we are takingG163 everyG3956 thoughtG3540 captiveG163 to the 14obedienceG5218 of ChristG5547, 6and we are readyG2092 to punishG1556 allG3956 disobedienceG3876, wheneverG3752 15your obedienceG5218 is completeG4137.
71617You are lookingG991 at 18things as they are outwardlyG2596G4383. 19IfG1487 anyoneG5100 is confidentG3982 in himselfG1438 that he is Christ’sG5547, let him considerG3049 thisG3778 againG3825 withinG1909 himselfG1438, that justG2531 as he is Christ’sG5547, 20soG3779 alsoG2532 are we.
