2 Corinthians 10:1-2 Now by the mildness and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am humble when face to face with you, but bold when away.

MSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now by the mildness and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am humble when face to face with you, but bold when away. ² I beg you that when I come I may not need to be as bold as I expect toward those who presume that we live according to the flesh.
