King James Version
2 Corinthians 10:6-11
King James Version
6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
7 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? if any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.
8 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:
9 That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.
10 For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.
11 Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters when we are absent, such will we be also in deed when we are present.

6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.(A)
7 You are judging by appearances.[a](B) If anyone is confident that they belong to Christ,(C) they should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as they do.(D) 8 So even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us(E) for building you up rather than tearing you down,(F) I will not be ashamed of it. 9 I do not want to seem to be trying to frighten you with my letters. 10 For some say, “His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive(G) and his speaking amounts to nothing.”(H) 11 Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.
