NowG1161 IG1473 PaulG3972 myselfG846 entreatG3870 youG5209 byG1223 the meeknessG4236 andG2532 gentlenessG1932 of ChristG5547, I whoG3739 inG2596 your presenceG4383 amG3303 lowlyG5011 amongG1722 youG5209, butG1161 being absentG548 am of good courageG2292 towardG1519 youG5209: yeaG1161, I beseechG1189 you, that I mayG2292 notG3361 when presentG3918 show courageG2292 with the confidenceG4006 wherewith I countG3049 to be boldG5111 againstG1909 someG5100, whoG3739 countG3049 of usG2248 as ifG5613 we walkedG4043 according toG2596 the fleshG4561. ForG1063 though we walkG4043 inG1722 the fleshG4561, we doG4754 notG3756 warG4754 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561 (forG1063 the weaponsG3696 of ourG2257 warfareG4752 are notG3756 of the fleshG4559, butG235 mightyG1415 before GodG2316 toG4314 the casting downG2506 of strongholdsG3794), casting downG2507 imaginationsG3053, andG2532 everyG3956 high thingG5313 that is exaltedG1869 againstG2596 the knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316, andG2532 bringing everyG3956 thoughtG3540 into captivityG163 toG1519 the obedienceG5218 of ChristG5547; andG2532 beingG2192 inG1722 readinessG2092 to avengeG1556 allG3956 disobedienceG3876, whenG3752 yourG5216 obedienceG5218 shall be made fullG4137. Ye lookG991 at the thingsG3588 that are beforeG2596 your faceG4383. IfG1487 any manG5100 trustethG3982 in himselfG1438 that he isG1511 Christ'sG5547, let himG3049 considerG3049 thisG5124 againG3825 withG575 himselfG1438, thatG3754, evenG2532 asG2531 heG846 is Christ'sG5547, soG3779 alsoG2532 are weG2249. ForG1063 thoughG1437 I should gloryG2744 somewhatG5100 abundantlyG4053 concerningG4012 ourG2257 authorityG1849 (whichG3739 the LordG2962 gaveG1325 forG1519 buildingG3619 you up, andG2532 notG3756 forG1519 casting youG5216 downG2506), I shallG153 notG3756 be put to shameG153: thatG2443 I mayG1380 notG3361 seemG1380 asG5613 ifG302 I would terrifyG1629 youG5209 byG1223 my lettersG1992. ForG3754, His lettersG3303, theyG5346 say, are weightyG926 andG2532 strongG2478; butG1161 his bodilyG4983 presenceG3952 is weakG772, andG2532 his speechG3056 of no accountG1848. LetG3049 such a oneG5108 reckonG3049 thisG5124, thatG3754, whatG3634 we areG2070 in wordG3056 byG1223 lettersG1992 when we are absentG548, suchG5108 are we alsoG2532 in deedG2041 when we are presentG3918. ForG1063 we are notG3756 boldG5111 to numberG1469 orG2228 compareG4793 ourselvesG1438 with certainG5100 of them that commendG4921 themselvesG1438: butG235 theyG846 themselves, measuringG3354 themselvesG1438 byG1722 themselvesG1438, andG2532 comparingG4793 themselvesG1438 with themselvesG1438, areG4920 withoutG3756 understandingG4920. ButG1161 weG2249 willG2744 notG3780 gloryG2744 beyondG280 our measureG280, butG235 according toG2596 the measureG3358 of the provinceG2583 whichG3739 GodG2316 apportionedG3307 to usG2254 as a measureG3358, to reachG2185 evenG2532 untoG891 youG5216. ForG1063 we stretchG5239 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 overmuchG5239, as thoughG5613 we reachedG2185 notG3361 untoG1519 youG5209: forG1063 we cameG5348 evenG2532 as far asG891 unto youG5216 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: notG3756 gloryingG2744 beyondG280 our measureG280, that is, inG1722 other men'sG245 laborsG2873; butG1161 havingG2192 hopeG1680 that, as yourG5216 faithG4102 growethG837, we shall be magnifiedG3170 inG1722 youG5213 accordingG2596 toG1519 ourG2257 provinceG2583 unto further abundanceG4050, so as to preach the gospelG2097 even untoG1519 the parts beyondG5238 youG5216, and notG3756 to gloryG2744 inG1722 another'sG245 provinceG2583 in regard ofG1519 things ready to our handG2092. ButG1161 heG3588 that gloriethG2744, let him gloryG2744 inG1722 the LordG2962. ForG1063 notG3756 he thatG1565 commendethG4921 himselfG1438 isG2076 approvedG1384, butG235 whomG3739 the LordG2962 commendethG4921.
