2 Corinthians 10:1-18

Now
<1161>
I
<1473>
Paul
<3972>
myself
<846>
beseech
<3870> (5719)
you
<5209>
by
<1223>
the meekness
<4236>
and
<2532>
gentleness
<1932>
of Christ
<5547>_,
who
<3739>
in
<2596>
presence
<4383>
[am] base
<3303> <5011>
among
<1722>
you
<5213>_,
but
<1161>
being absent
<548> (5752)
am bold
<2292> (5719)
toward
<1519>
you
<5209>_:
{in presence: or, in outward appearance}
But
<1161>
I beseech
<1189> (5736)
[you], that I may not
<3361>
be bold
<2292> (5658)
when I am present
<3918> (5752)
with that confidence
<4006>_,
wherewith
<3739>
I think
<3049> (5736)
to be bold
<5111> (5658)
against
<1909>
some
<5100>_,
which
<3588>
think
<3049> (5740)
of us
<2248>
as
<5613>
if we walked
<4043> (5723)
according
<2596>
to the flesh
<4561>_.
{think: or, reckon}
For
<1063>
though we walk
<4043> (5723)
in
<1722>
the flesh
<4561>_,
we do
<4754> (0)
not
<3756>
war
<4754> (5731)
after
<2596>
the flesh
<4561>_:
(For
<1063>
the weapons
<3696>
of our
<2257>
warfare
<4752>
[are] not
<3756>
carnal
<4559>_,
but
<235>
mighty
<1415>
through God
<2316>
to
<4314>
the pulling down
<2506>
of strong holds
<3794>;)
{through God: or, to God}
Casting down
<2507> (5723)
imaginations
<3053>_,
and
<2532>
every
<3956>
high thing
<5313>
that exalteth itself
<1869> (5734)
against
<2596>
the knowledge
<1108>
of God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
bringing into captivity
<163> (5723)
every
<3956>
thought
<3540>
to
<1519>
the obedience
<5218>
of Christ
<5547>_;
{imaginations: or, reasonings}
And
<2532>
having
<2192> (5723)
in
<1722>
a readiness
<2092>
to revenge
<1556> (5658)
all
<3956>
disobedience
<3876>_,
when
<3752>
your
<5216>
obedience
<5218>
is fulfilled
<4137> (5686)_.
Do ye look on
<991> (5719)
things after
<2596>
the outward appearance
<4383>_?
If any man
<1536>
trust
<3982> (5754)
to himself
<1438>
that he is
<1511> (5750)
Christ's
<5547>_,
let him
<3049> (0)
of
<575>
himself
<1438>
think
<3049> (5737)
this
<5124>
again
<3825>_,
that
<3754>_,
as
<2531>
he
<846>
[is] Christ's
<5547>_,
even
<2532>
so
<3779>
[are] we
<2249>
Christ's
<5547>_.
For
<1063> <2532>
though
<1437> <5037>
I should boast
<2744> (5667)
somewhat
<5100>
more
<4055>
of
<4012>
our
<2257>
authority
<1849>_,
which
<3739>
the Lord
<2962>
hath given
<1325> (5656)
us
<2254>
for
<1519>
edification
<3619>_,
and
<2532>
not
<3756>
for
<1519>
your
<5216>
destruction
<2506>_,
I should
<153> (0)
not
<3756>
be ashamed
<153> (5701)_:
That
<3363> (0)
I may
<1380> (0)
not
<3363>
seem
<1380> (5661)
as
<5613>
if
<302>
I would terrify
<1629> (5721)
you
<5209>
by
<1223>
letters
<1992>_.
For
<3754>
[his] letters
<1992> <3303>_,
say they
<5346> (5748)_,
[are] weighty
<926>
and
<2532>
powerful
<2478>_;
but
<1161>
[his] bodily
<4983>
presence
<3952>
[is] weak
<772>_,
and
<2532>
[his] speech
<3056>
contemptible
<1848> (5772)_.
{say they: Gr. saith he}
Let
<3049> (0)
such an one
<5108>
think
<3049> (5737)
this
<5124>_,
that
<3754>_,
such as
<3634>
we are
<2070> (5748)
in word
<3056>
by
<1223>
letters
<1992>
when we are absent
<548> (5752)_,
such
<5108>
[will we be] also
<2532>
in deed
<2041>
when we are present
<3918> (5752)_.
For
<1063>
we dare
<5111> (5719)
not
<3756>
make
<1469> (0)
ourselves of the number
<1469> (5658)_,
or
<2228>
compare
<4793> (0)
ourselves
<1438>
with
<4793> (5658)
some
<5100>
that commend
<4921> (5723)
themselves
<1438>_:
but
<235>
they
<846>
measuring
<3354> (5723)
themselves
<1438>
by
<1722>
themselves
<1438>_,
and
<2532>
comparing
<4793> (0)
themselves
<1438>
among
<4793> (5723)
themselves
<1438>_,
are
<4920> (0)
not
<3756>
wise
<4920> (5719)_.
{are...: or, understand it not}
But
<1161>
we
<2249>
will
<2744> (0)
not
<3780>
boast
<2744> (5695)
of things without
<1519>
[our] measure
<280>_,
but
<235>
according
<2596>
to the measure
<3358>
of the rule
<2583>
which
<3739>
God
<2316>
hath distributed
<3307> (5656)
to us
<2254>_,
a measure
<3358>
to reach
<2185> (5635)
even
<2532>
unto
<891>
you
<5216>_.
{rule: or, line}
For
<1063>
we stretch
<5239> (0)
not
<3756>
ourselves
<1438>
beyond
<5239> (5719)
[our measure], as
<5613>
though we reached
<2185> (5740)
not
<3361>
unto
<1519>
you
<5209>_:
for
<1063>
we are come
<5348> (5656)
as far as
<891>
to you
<5216>
also
<2532>
in
<1722>
[preaching] the gospel
<2098>
of Christ
<5547>_:
Not
<3756>
boasting
<2744> (5740)
of things without
<1519>
[our] measure
<280>_,
[that is], of
<1722>
other men's
<245>
labours
<2873>_;
but
<1161>
having
<2192> (5723)
hope
<1680>_,
when your
<5216>
faith
<4102>
is increased
<837> (5746)_,
that we shall be enlarged
<3170> (5683)
by
<1722>
you
<5213>
according
<2596>
to our
<2257>
rule
<2583>
abundantly
<1519> <4050>_,
{enlarged...: or, magnified in you}
To preach the gospel
<2097> (5670)
in
<1519>
the [regions] beyond
<5238>
you
<5216>_,
[and] not
<3756>
to boast
<2744> (5664)
in
<1722>
another man's
<245>
line
<2583>
of
<1519>
things made ready to our hand
<2092>_.
{line: or, rule}
But
<1161>
he that glorieth
<2744> (5740)_,
let him glory
<2744> (5737)
in
<1722>
the Lord
<2962>_.
For
<1063>
not
<3756>
he
<1565>
that commendeth
<4921> (5723)
himself
<1438>
is
<2076> (5748)
approved
<1384>_,
but
<235>
whom
<3739>
the Lord
<2962>
commendeth
<4921> (5719)_.
