2 Corinthians 10:7-8 You people are looking merely at the appearance of things or, “You should look at what is obvious!” In either case, it suggests they were misjudging Paul’s ministry. If any person is confident within himself that he belongs to Christ, he should reflect on this again: We are just as much Christ’s servants as he is.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ You people are looking [merely] at the appearance of things [or, “You should look at what is obvious!” In either case, it suggests they were misjudging Paul’s ministry]. If any person is confident within himself that he belongs to Christ, he should reflect on this again: We are just as much Christ’s [servants] as he is. ⁸ For even if I should boast too much about the authority the Lord gave us for building you people up [spiritually], and not tearing you down, I will not be ashamed of it.
