2 Corinthians 10 Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ , who in presence am base among you , but being absent am bold toward you:

KJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G1161 Now G1473 I G3972 Paul G846 myself G3870 beseech [G5719] G5209 you G1223 by G4236 the meekness G2532 and G1932 gentleness G5547 of Christ G3739 , who G2596 in G4383 presence G3303 am base G5011 G1722 among G5213 you G1161 , but G548 being absent [G5752] G2292 am bold [G5719] G1519 toward G5209 you:

2 G1161 But G1189 I beseech [G5736] G3361 you, that I may not G2292 be bold [G5658] G3918 when I am present [G5752] G4006 with that confidence G3739 , wherewith G3049 I think [G5736] G5111 to be bold [G5658] G1909 against G5100 some G3588 , which G3049 think [G5740] G2248 of us G5613 as G4043 if we walked [G5723] G2596 according G4561 to the flesh.

3 G1063 For G4043 though we walk [G5723] G1722 in G4561 the flesh G4754 , we do G3756 not G4754 war [G5731] G2596 after G4561 the flesh:

4 G1063 (For G3696 the weapons G2257 of our G4752 warfare G3756 are not G4559 carnal G235 , but G1415 mighty G2316 through God G4314 to G2506 the pulling down G3794 of strong holds;)

5 G2507 Casting down [G5723] G3053 imaginations G2532 , and G3956 every G5313 high thing G1869 that exalteth itself [G5734] G2596 against G1108 the knowledge G2316 of God G2532 , and G163 bringing into captivity [G5723] G3956 every G3540 thought G1519 to G5218 the obedience G5547 of Christ;

6 G2532 And G2192 having [G5723] G1722 in G2092 a readiness G1556 to revenge [G5658] G3956 all G3876 disobedience G3752 , when G5216 your G5218 obedience G4137 is fulfilled [G5686] .

7 G991 Do ye look on [G5719] G2596 things after G4383 the outward appearance G1536 ? If any man G3982 trust [G5754] G1438 to himself G1511 that he is [G5750] G5547 Christ's G3049 , let him G575 of G1438 himself G3049 think [G5737] G5124 this G3825 again G3754 , that G2531 , as G846 he G5547 is Christ's G2532 , even G3779 so G2249 are we G5547 Christ's.

8 G1063 For G2532 G1437 though G5037 G2744 I should boast [G5667] G5100 somewhat G4055 more G4012 of G2257 our G1849 authority G3739 , which G2962 the Lord G1325 hath given [G5656] G2254 us G1519 for G3619 edification G2532 , and G3756 not G1519 for G5216 your G2506 destruction G153 , I should G3756 not G153 be ashamed [G5701] :

9 G3363 That G1380 I may G3363 not G1380 seem [G5661] G5613 as G302 if G1629 I would terrify [G5721] G5209 you G1223 by G1992 letters.

10 G3754 For G1992 his letters G3303 G5346 , say they [G5748] G926 , are weighty G2532 and G2478 powerful G1161 ; but G4983 his bodily G3952 presence G772 is weak G2532 , and G3056 his speech G1848 contemptible [G5772] .

11 G3049 Let G5108 such an one G3049 think [G5737] G5124 this G3754 , that G3634 , such as G2070 we are [G5748] G3056 in word G1223 by G1992 letters G548 when we are absent [G5752] G5108 , such G2532 will we be also G2041 in deed G3918 when we are present [G5752] .

12 G1063 For G5111 we dare [G5719] G3756 not G1469 make G1469 ourselves of the number [G5658] G2228 , or G4793 compare G1438 ourselves G4793 with [G5658] G5100 some G4921 that commend [G5723] G1438 themselves G235 : but G846 they G3354 measuring [G5723] G1438 themselves G1722 by G1438 themselves G2532 , and G4793 comparing G1438 themselves G4793 among [G5723] G1438 themselves G4920 , are G3756 not G4920 wise [G5719] .

13 G1161 But G2249 we G2744 will G3780 not G2744 boast [G5695] G1519 of things without G280 our measure G235 , but G2596 according G3358 to the measure G2583 of the rule G3739 which G2316 God G3307 hath distributed [G5656] G2254 to us G3358 , a measure G2185 to reach [G5635] G2532 even G891 unto G5216 you.

14 G1063 For G5239 we stretch G3756 not G1438 ourselves G5239 beyond [G5719] G5613 our measure, as G2185 though we reached [G5740] G3361 not G1519 unto G5209 you G1063 : for G5348 we are come [G5656] G891 as far as G5216 to you G2532 also G1722 in G2098 preaching the gospel G5547 of Christ:

15 G3756 Not G2744 boasting [G5740] G1519 of things without G280 our measure G1722 , that is, of G245 other men's G2873 labours G1161 ; but G2192 having [G5723] G1680 hope G5216 , when your G4102 faith G837 is increased [G5746] G3170 , that we shall be enlarged [G5683] G1722 by G5213 you G2596 according G2257 to our G2583 rule G1519 abundantly G4050 ,

16 G2097 To preach the gospel [G5670] G1519 in G5238 the regions beyond G5216 you G3756 , and not G2744 to boast [G5664] G1722 in G245 another man's G2583 line G1519 of G2092 things made ready to our hand.

17 G1161 But G2744 he that glorieth [G5740] G2744 , let him glory [G5737] G1722 in G2962 the Lord.

18 G1063 For G3756 not G1565 he G4921 that commendeth [G5723] G1438 himself G2076 is [G5748] G1384 approved G235 , but G3739 whom G2962 the Lord G4921 commendeth [G5719] .
