2 Corinthians 10:1-12

1NowG1161 IG1473 PaulG3972 myselfG846 beseechG3870 youG4771 byG1223 the meeknessG3588G4240 andG2532 gentlenessG1932 of ChristG3588G5547, whoG3739 inG2596 presenceG4383 am baseG5011 amongG1722 youG4771, butG1161 being absentG548 am boldG2292 towardG1519 youG4771: 2ButG1161 I beseechG1189 you, that I mayG2292 notG3361 be boldG2292 when I am presentG3918 with that confidenceG3588G4006, wherewith I thinkG3049 to be boldG5111 againstG1909 someG5100, whichG3739 thinkG3049 of usG1473 as ifG5613 we walkedG4043 according toG2596 the fleshG4561. 3ForG1063 though we walkG4043 inG1722 the fleshG4561, we doG4754 notG3756 warG4754 afterG2596 the fleshG4561: 4(ForG1063 the weaponsG3696 of ourG1473 warfareG3588G4752 are notG3756 carnalG4559, butG235 mightyG1415 through GodG3588G2316 toG4314 the pulling downG2506 of strong holdsG3794;) 5Casting downG2507 imaginationsG3053, andG2532 everyG3956 high thingG5313 that exalteth itselfG1869 againstG2596 the knowledgeG3588G1108 of GodG3588G2316, andG2532 bringing into captivityG163 everyG3956 thoughtG3540 toG1519 the obedienceG3588G5218 of ChristG3588G5547; 6AndG2532 havingG2192 inG1722 a readinessG2092 to revengeG1556 allG3956 disobedienceG3876, whenG3752 yourG4771 obedienceG3588G5218 is fulfilledG4137. 7Do ye lookG991 on thingsG3588 afterG2596 the outward appearanceG4383? IfG1487 any manG5100 trustG3982 to himselfG1438 that he isG1510 Christ’sG5547, let himG3049 ofG575 himselfG1438 thinkG3049 thisG3778 againG3825, thatG3754, asG2531 heG846 is Christ’sG5547, evenG2532 soG3779 are weG1473 Christ’sG5547. 8ForG1063 thoughG1437 I should boastG2744 somewhatG5100 moreG4053 ofG4012 ourG1473 authorityG3588G1849, whichG3739 the LordG3588G2962 hath givenG1325 usG1473 forG1519 edificationG3619, andG2532 notG3756 forG1519 yourG4771 destructionG2506, I shouldG153 notG3756 be ashamedG153: 9ThatG2443 I mayG1380 notG3361 seemG1380 asG5613 ifG302 I would terrifyG1629 youG4771 byG1223 lettersG3588G1992. 10ForG3754 his lettersG1992, say theyG5346, are weightyG926 andG2532 powerfulG2478; butG1161 his bodilyG3588G4983 presenceG3952 is weakG772, andG2532 his speechG3588G3056 contemptibleG1848. 11LetG3049 such an oneG5108 thinkG3049 thisG3778, thatG3754, such asG3634 we areG1510 in wordG3588G3056 byG1223 lettersG1992 when we are absentG548, suchG5108 will we be alsoG2532 in deedG3588G2041 when we are presentG3918. 12

ForG1063 we dareG5111 notG3756 make ourselves of the numberG1469, orG2228 compareG4793 ourselvesG1438 with someG5100 that commendG4921 themselvesG1438: butG235 theyG846 measuringG3354 themselvesG1438 byG1722 themselvesG1438, andG2532 comparingG4793 themselvesG1438 among themselvesG1438, areG4920 notG3756 wiseG4920.
