2 Corinthians 10:12-16 For we dare not count or compare ourselves with those who are proud of themselves; for it is because they measure themselves by themselves that they do not understand.

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² For we dare not count or compare ourselves with those who are proud of themselves; for it is because they measure themselves by themselves that they do not understand. ¹³ We do not boast beyond our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God has distributed to us, a measure to reach even to you. ¹⁴ It is not because we are unable to climb where you are; nor are trying to misrepresent ourselves; for we have climbed where we are through the gospel of Christ: ¹⁵ And we do not boast of things beyond our measure; that is, by other menÆs labor, but we have the hope, that when your faith grows, our pride shall be justified according to our measure. ¹⁶ And we shall become strengthened so that we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not boast of the things already done by others.
