2 Corinthians 10:8-16

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. 13ButG1161 weG1473 willG2744 notG3780 boastG2744 ofG1519 thingsG3588 withoutG280 our measureG280, butG235 according toG2596 the measureG3588G3358 of the ruleG3588G2583 whichG3739 GodG3588G2316 hath distributedG3307 to usG1473, a measureG3358 to reachG2185 evenG2532 untoG891 youG4771. 14ForG1063 we stretchG5239 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 beyondG5239 our measure, as thoughG5613 we reachedG2185 notG3361 untoG1519 youG4771: forG1063 we are comeG5348 as far asG891 to youG4771 alsoG2532 inG1722 preaching the gospelG3588G2098 of ChristG3588G5547: 15NotG3756 boastingG2744 ofG1519 thingsG3588 withoutG280 our measureG280, that is, ofG1722 other men’sG245 laboursG2873; butG1161 havingG2192 hopeG1680, when yourG4771 faithG3588G4102 is increasedG837, that we shall be enlargedG3170 byG1722 youG4771 accordingG2596 toG1519 ourG1473 ruleG3588G2583 abundantlyG4050, 16To preach the gospelG2097 inG1519 theG3588 regions beyondG5238 youG4771, and notG3756 to boastG2744 inG1722 another man’sG245 line of thingsG2583 made readyG3588G2092 toG1519 our handG3588G2092.
