2 Corinthians 10:13-18
13But we will not boastG2744 1beyondG1519G280 our measureG280, but 23withinG2596 the measureG3358 of the sphereG2583 whichG3739 GodG2316 apportionedG3307 to us as a measureG3358, to reachG2185 evenG2532 as farG891 as you.
14For we are not overextendingG5239 ourselvesG1438, as ifG5613 we did not reachG2185 to you, for 4we were the firstG5348 to comeG5348 evenG2532 as farG891 as you in the 5gospelG2098 of ChristG5547;
15not boastingG2744 6beyondG1519G280 our measureG280, that is, in 7otherG245 men’sG245 laborsG2873, but with the hopeG1680 that as 8your faithG4102 growsG837, we will be, 9withinG2596 our sphereG2583, 10enlargedG3170 evenG1519 moreG4050 by you,
16soG1519 as to 11preachG2097 the gospelG2097 even to 12the regions beyondG5238 you, and not to boastG2744 1314in whatG2092 has been accomplishedG2092 in the sphereG2583 of anotherG245.
17But 15he who boastsG2744 is to boastG2744 in the LordG2962.
18For it is not he who 16commendsG4921 himselfG1438 that is approvedG1384, but he 17whomG3739 the LordG2962 commendsG4921.
