2 Corinthians 10:1
|
|
Now I Paul myself entreat you by the meekness
and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being
absent am of good courage toward you: |
|
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:2
|
|
yea, I beseech you, that I may not when present
show courage with the confidence wherewith I count to be bold against some, who
count of us as if we walked according to the flesh. |
| |
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:3
|
|
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war
according to the flesh |
| |
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:4
|
|
(for
the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the
casting down of strongholds), |
| |
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:5
|
|
casting down imaginations, and every high thing
that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into
captivity to the obedience of Christ; |
| |
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:6
|
|
and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience,
when your obedience shall be made full. |
| |
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:7
|
|
Ye look at the things that are before your face.
If any man trusteth in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again
with himself, that, even as he is Christ's, so also are we. |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:8
|
|
For though I should glory somewhat abundantly
concerning our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for
casting you down), I shall not be put to shame: |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:9
|
|
that I may not seem as if I would terrify you
by my letters. |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:10
|
|
For, His letters, they say, are weighty and
strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech of no account. |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:11
|
|
Let such a one reckon this, that, what we are
in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also in deed when we are present.
|
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:12
|
|
For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves
with certain of them that commend themselves: but they themselves, measuring themselves
by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.
|
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:13
|
|
But we will not glory beyond our measure, but
according to the measure of the province which God apportioned to us as a measure,
to reach even unto you. |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:14
|
|
For we stretch not ourselves overmuch, as though
we reached not unto you: for we came even as far as unto you in the gospel of
Christ: |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:15
|
|
not glorying beyond our measure, that is, in
other men's labors; but having hope that, as your faith groweth, we shall be magnified
in you according to our province unto further abundance, |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:16
|
|
so as to preach the gospel even unto the parts
beyond you, and not to glory in another's province in regard of things ready to
our hand. |
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:17
|
|
But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
|
|
|
|
|
2 Corinthians 10:18
|
|
For not he that commendeth himself is approved,
but whom the Lord commendeth. |
