12 For we do not presume to count ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
13 But we shall not boast beyond measure, but within the measure of the limits Elohim assigned unto us, to reach even to you.
14 For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for we also came to you with the Good News of the Messiah,
15 not boasting beyond measure in the labours of others, but having an expectation, that as your belief grows, we shall be greatly enlarged by you, according to our limits,
16 to bring the Good News in the parts beyond you – not to boast in another’s limits in what has been accomplished.
17 But “He who boasts, let him boast in יהוה.”
18 For not he who commends himself is approved, but he whom the Master commends.
