2 Corinthians 10:1-12
1NowG1161 IG1473 PaulG3972 myselfG846 beseechG3870 youG5209 byG1223 the meeknessG4236 andG2532 gentlenessG1932 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 inG2596 presenceG4383 am baseG3303G5011 amongG1722 youG5213, butG1161 being absentG548 am boldG2292 towardG1519 youG5209:1 2ButG1161 I beseechG1189 you, that I may notG3361 be boldG2292 when I am presentG3918 with that confidenceG4006, with whichG3739 I thinkG3049 to be boldG5111 againstG1909 someG5100, whoG3588 thinkG3049 of usG2248 asG5613 if we walkedG4043 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561.2 3ForG1063 though we walkG4043 inG1722 the fleshG4561, we doG4754 notG3756 warG4754 according toG2596 the fleshG4561: 4(ForG1063 the weaponsG3696 of ourG2257 warfareG4752 are notG3756 carnalG4559, butG235 mightyG1415 through GodG2316 toG4314 the pulling downG2506 of strong holdsG3794;)3 5Casting downG2507 imaginationsG3053, andG2532 everyG3956 high thingG5313 that exalteth itselfG1869 againstG2596 the knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316, andG2532 bringing into captivityG163 everyG3956 thoughtG3540 toG1519 the obedienceG5218 of ChristG5547;4 6AndG2532 havingG2192 inG1722 a readinessG2092 to punishG1556 allG3956 disobedienceG3876, whenG3752 yourG5216 obedienceG5218 is fulfilledG4137.
7Do ye look onG991 things afterG2596 the outward appearanceG4383? If any manG1536 trustethG3982 to himselfG1438 that he isG1511 Christ’sG5547, let himG3049 ofG575 himselfG1438 thinkG3049 thisG5124 againG3825, thatG3754, asG2531 heG846 is Christ’sG5547, evenG2532 soG3779 are weG2249 Christ’sG5547. 8ForG1063G2532 thoughG1437G5037 I should boastG2744 somewhatG5100 moreG4055 ofG4012 ourG2257 authorityG1849, whichG3739 the LordG2962 hath givenG1325 usG2254 forG1519 edificationG3619, andG2532 notG3756 forG1519 yourG5216 destructionG2506, I shouldG153 notG3756 be ashamedG153: 9ThatG3363 I mayG1380 notG3363 seemG1380 asG5613 ifG302 I would terrifyG1629 youG5209 byG1223 lettersG1992. 10ForG3754 his lettersG1992G3303, say theyG5346, are weightyG926 andG2532 powerfulG2478; butG1161 his bodilyG4983 presenceG3952 is weakG772, andG2532 his speechG3056 contemptibleG1848.5 11LetG3049 such a personG5108 thinkG3049 thisG5124, thatG3754, such asG3634 we areG2070 in wordG3056 byG1223 lettersG1992 when we are absentG548, suchG5108 will we be alsoG2532 in deedG2041 when we are presentG3918.
12ForG1063 we dareG5111 notG3756 makeG1469 ourselves of the numberG1469, orG2228 compareG4793 ourselvesG1438 withG4793 someG5100 that commendG4921 themselvesG1438: butG235 theyG846 measuringG3354 themselvesG1438 byG1722 themselvesG1438, andG2532 comparingG4793 themselvesG1438 amongG4793 themselvesG1438, areG4920 notG3756 wiseG4920.6
