Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Now Don’t Make Me Have To Act Boldly Against Some of You, For My Weapons Are Powerful
10 Now I, Paul, myself, am appealing-to you by the gentleness and kindness of Christ— I who face-to-face am lowly among you, but while absent am-bold toward you! 2 And I am begging that I may not [have to] be bold[a] while present with the confidence with which I am considering to dare [to act] against some considering us as walking in accordance with the flesh[b]. 3 For [though] walking in the flesh, we are not waging-war in accordance with the flesh.

His desire is to be bold in words here in order to avoid having to be bold in actions against them when he comes.
- 2 Corinthians 10:2 That is, with mere human authority, motives, and power.
