2 Corinthians Chapter 10 - | Early Church Bible

1: myself [G1473] But [G1161] I [G1473], Paul, appeal to [G3870] you [G1473], through [G1223] the [G3588] cooperativeness [G4236] and [G2532] clemency [G1932] of the [G3588] [one] Anointed '[G5547], who [G3739] in person [G2596][G4383] indeed [G3303] [am] humble [G5011] among [G1722] you [G1473], and absent [G1161] I take courage [G2292] in [G1519] you [G1473].
2: But I beseech [you [G1189][G1161], [I] the [G3588] [one] not [G3361] at hand [G3918] to have taken courage [G2292], with the [G3588] reliance [G4006] which [G3739] I consider [G3049] to dare [G5111] against [G1909] some [G5100] of the [G3588] [ones] considering [G3049] us [G1473] as [G5613] according to [G2596] flesh [G4561] walking [G4043],
3: in [G1722] flesh [G4561] for [G1063] walking [G4043] not [G3756] according to [G2596] flesh [G4561] we soldier [G4754],
4: (for the [G3588][G1063] weapons [G3696] of the [G3588] our army [G4752][G1473] [are] not [G3756] of flesh '[G4559], but mighty [G1415] the [G3588] with God '[G2316] to [G4314] demolition [G2506] of fortresses) [G3794],
5: devices [G3053] demolishing [G2507] and [G2532] every [G3956] height [G5313] being lifted up [G1869] against [G2596] the [G3588] knowledge [G1108] of the [G3588] God '[G2316], and [G2532] captivating every [G3956] thought [G3540] into [G1519] the [G3588] obedience [G5218] of the [G3588] [one] Anointed '[G5547];
6: and [G2532] in [G1722] readiness [G2092] having [G2192] to punish [G1556] all [G3956] disobedience [G3876], whenever [G3752] should be fulfilled [G4137] your [G1473] the [G3588] obedience [G5218].
7: the [things] [G3588] according to [G2596] appearance [G4383] do you take heed [only ? If anyone [G1536] is persuaded [G3982] in himself [G1438] to be of Anointed "'[G5547], let him consider this [G3778][G3049] again [G3825] off himself [G1438], that [G3754] as [G2531] he [G1473] [is] of Anointed "'[G5547], so [G3779] also [G2532] we [are [G1473] of Anointed "'[G5547].
8: For if also [G1437][G5037][G1063] even [G2532] more extra [G4053] somewhat [G5100] I should boast [G2744] concerning [G4012] the [G3588] our authority [G1849][G1473], (of which [G3739] gave [G1325] the [G3588] Boss '[G2962] to us [G1473] for [G1519] construction [G3619], and [G2532] not [G3756] for [G1519] your demolition, [G2506][G1473]) I will not [G3756] be ashamed ;
9: that [G2443] I should not [G3361] seem [G1380] as [G5613] if to frighten [G1629] you [G1473] through [G1223] the [G3588] letters [G1992].
10: For [G3754] the [G3588] letters indeed [G3303][G1992], one says [G5346], [are] heavy and [G2532] strong [G2478], the [G3588] but [G1161] arrival [G3952] the [G3588] [of his] person [G4983] weak , and [G2532] the [G3588] word [G3056] being contemptable [G1848].
11: this [G3778] Let consider [G3049] the [G3588] such [G5108], that [G3754] as [G3634] we are the [G3588] in word [G3056] through [G1223] letters [G1992] being absent , such [G5108] when [G2532] at hand [G3918] the [G3588] [are we] at work [G2041].
12: For not [G3756][G1063] do we dare [G5111] to approve [G1469] or [G2228] compare [G4793] ourselves [G1438] [with] some [G5100] of the [G3588] [ones] commending themselves [G1438][G4921]; but [that] they [G1473] by [G1722] themselves [G1438] themselves [G1438] [are] measuring [G3354] and [G2532] comparing [G4793] 10> themselves [G1438] 11> with themselves [G1438] they do not [G3756] notice [G4920].
13: But we [G1473][G1161] not [G3780] to [G1519] the [things] [G3588] immeasurable will boast [G2744], but according to [G2596] the [G3588] measure [G3358] of the [G3588] rule [G2583] of which [G3739] God portioned [G3307] the [G3588][G2316] to us [G1473], a measure [G3358] reaching [G2185] as far as even [G2532] of you [G1473].
14: For not [G3756][G1063] as [one [G5613] not [G3361] reaching [G2185] to [G1519] you [G1473] do we overstretch [G5239] ourselves [G1438], for unto [G1063] you even [G2532][G1473] we arrive [G5348] with [G1722] the [G3588] good-word-conveyed (good message) '[G2098] of the [G3588] [one] Anointed '[G5547];
15: not [G3756] in [G1519] things the [G3588] immeasurable boasting [G2744] in [G1722] another's toils [G2873]; hope [G1680] but [G1161] having [G2192], increasing of the [G3588] trust '[G4102] of yours [G1473] among [G1722] you [G1473] to be magnified [G3170], according to [G2596] the [G3588] our rule [G2583][G1473] in [G1519] abundance [G4050],
16: to [G1519] the [G3588] [ones] farther [G5238] from you [G1473] to good-word-convey '[G2097]; [and] not [G3756] in [G1722] another's rule [G2583] [already [G1519] the [G3588] prepared [G2092] to boast [G2744].
17: But the [G3588] [one] [G1161] boasting [G2744], in [G1722] Boss '[G2962] let him boast [G2744].
18: For [it is] not [G3756][G1063] the [G3588] [one] commending himself [G1438][G4921] that [G1565] is approved [G1384], but whom [G3739] the [G3588] Boss '[G2962] commends [G4921].
