2 Corinthians 10:16-18

New Living Translation

¹⁶ Then we will be able to go and preach the Good News in other places far beyond you, where no one else is working. Then there will be no question of our boasting about work done in someone else’s territory. ¹⁷ As the Scriptures say, “If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord.”^[a]

¹⁸ When people commend themselves, it doesn’t count for much. The important thing is for the Lord to commend them.
