2 Corinthians 10:12-18 For we do not venture to reckon ourselves among, or compare ourselves with, some of those who commend themselves; but they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise.

Noyes⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² For we do not venture to reckon ourselves among, or compare ourselves with, some of those who commend themselves; but they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise. ¹³ But we will not boast of things that are without our measure, but according to the measure of the line which God allotted us,a measure to reach even to you. ¹⁴ For we do not stretch ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not to you; (for as far as even to you did we come, in the gospel of Christ;) ¹⁵ not boasting of things that are without measure, in other mens labors, but having hope, when your faith is increased, that our line will through you be still further extended, ¹⁶ so that we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you; not boasting, in anothers line, of things made ready to our hand. ¹⁷ But "he that boasteth, let him boast in the Lord." ¹⁸ For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but he whom the Lord commendeth.
