2 Corinthians 10:10-13
10For they sayG5346, “His lettersG1992 are weightyG926 and strongG2478, but his 1personalG4983 presenceG3952 is 2unimpressiveG772 and 3his speechG3056 contemptibleG1848.” 11Have suchG5108 aG5108 personG5108 considerG3049 thisG3778, that whatG3634 we are in wordG3056 by lettersG1992 when absentG548, suchG5108 personsG5108 we are alsoG2532 in deedG2041 when presentG3918.
12For we do not presumeG5111 to rankG1469 orG2228 compareG4793 ourselvesG1438 with 4someG5100 of thoseG3588 who 5commendG4921 themselvesG1438; but when they 6measureG3354 themselvesG1438 by themselvesG1438 and compareG4793 themselvesG1438 with themselvesG1438, they haveG4920 noG3756 understandingG4920. 13But we will not boastG2744 7beyondG1519G280 our measureG280, but 89withinG2596 the measureG3358 of the 10domainG2583 whichG3739 GodG2316 assignedG3307 to us as a measureG3358, to reachG2185 evenG2532 as farG891 as you.
