2 Corinto 10
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
10 Ako ngang si Pablo ay namamanhik sa inyo alangalang sa kaamuang-loob at kapakumbabaan ni Cristo, ako na sa harapan ninyo ay mapagpakumbaba sa gitna ninyo, nguni't ako'y lubhang malakas ang loob kung wala sa harapan ninyo:
2 Oo, ako'y namamanhik sa inyo, upang kung ako'y nahaharap ay huwag akong magpakita ng katapangang may pagkakatiwala na ipinasiya kong ipagmatapang laban sa ilang nagiisip sa amin, na waring kami ay nagsisilakad ng ayon sa laman.
3 Sapagka't bagaman kami ay nagsisilakad sa laman, ay hindi kami nangakikipagbakang ayon sa laman.
4 (Sapagka't ang mga sandata ng aming pakikilaban ay hindi ukol sa laman, kundi sa harapan ng Dios ay may kapangyarihang gumiba ng mga kuta);
5 Na siyang gumigiba ng mga maling haka, at ng bawa't bagay na matayog na nagmamataas laban sa karunungan ng Dios, at bumibihag sa lahat ng pagiisip sa pagtalima kay Cristo;
6 At nangahahanda upang maghiganti sa lahat ng pagsuway, kung maganap na ang inyong pagtalima.
7 Minamasdan ninyo ang mga bagay na nahaharap sa inyong mukha. Kung ang sinoman ay mayroong pagkakatiwala sa kaniyang sarili na siya'y kay Cristo, ay muling dilidilihin ito sa kaniyang sarili na, kung paanong siya'y kay Cristo, kami naman ay gayon din.
8 Sapagka't bagaman ako ay magmapuri ng marami tungkol sa aming kapamahalaan (na ibinigay ng Panginoon sa ikapagtitibay sa inyo, at hindi sa ikagigiba ninyo) ay hindi ako mapapahiya.
9 Upang huwag akong wari'y ibig ko kayong pangilabutin sa takot sa aking mga sulat.
10 Sapagka't, sinasabi nila, Ang kaniyang mga sulat, ay malaman at mabisa; datapuwa't ang anyo ng kaniyang katawan ay mahina, at ang kaniyang pananalita ay walang kabuluhan.
11 Bayaang isipin ng isang gayon ito, na, kung ano kami sa pananalita sa mga sulat pagka kami ay wala sa harapan, ay gayon din kami naman sa gawa pagka kami ay nahaharap.
12 Sapagka't hindi kami nangagmamatapang na makibilang o makitulad sa mga ilan doon sa mga nagmamapuri sa kanilang sarili: nguni't sila na sinusukat ang kanilang sarili sa kanila rin, at kanilang itinutulad ang sarili sa kanila rin ay mga walang unawa.
13 Datapuwa't hindi naman ipinagmamapuri ang labis sa aming sukat, kundi ayon sa sukat ng hangganang sa amin ay ipinamamahagi ng Dios, na gaya ng sukat, upang umabot hanggang sa inyo.
14 Sapagka't hindi kami nagsisilagpas ng higit, na waring hindi na namin kayo aabutin: sapagka't hanggang sa inyo naman ay nagsirating kami sa evangelio ni Cristo:
15 Na hindi namin ipinagmamapuri ang labis sa aming sukat, sa makatuwid baga'y ang mga gawa ng ibang mga tao; kundi yamang may pagasa, na ayon sa paglago ng inyong pananampalataya, kami'y pupurihin sa inyo ayon sa aming hangganan sa lalong kasaganaan,
16 Upang ipangaral ang evangelio sa mga dako pa roon ng lupain ninyo, at huwag kaming mangagmapuri sa hangganan ng iba tungkol sa mga bagay na nangahahanda na sa amin.
17 Datapuwa't ang nagmamapuri ay magmapuri sa Panginoon.
18 Sapagka't hindi subok ang nagtatagubilin sa kaniyang sarili, kundi ang ipinagtatagubilin ng Panginoon.

Paul’s Defense of His Ministry
10 By the humility and gentleness(A) of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul,(B) who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you when away! 2 I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold(C) as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the standards of this world.(D) 3 For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does.(E) 4 The weapons we fight with(F) are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power(G) to demolish strongholds.(H) 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God,(I) and we take captive every thought to make it obedient(J) to Christ. 6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.(K)
7 You are judging by appearances.[a](L) If anyone is confident that they belong to Christ,(M) they should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as they do.(N) 8 So even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us(O) for building you up rather than tearing you down,(P) 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(Q) and his speaking amounts to nothing.”(R) 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.
12 We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves.(S) When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. 13 We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us,(T) a sphere that also includes you. 14 We are not going too far in our boasting, as would be the case if we had not come to you, for we did get as far as you(U) with the gospel of Christ.(V) 15 Neither do we go beyond our limits(W) by boasting of work done by others.(X) Our hope is that, as your faith continues to grow,(Y) our sphere of activity among you will greatly expand, 16 so that we can preach the gospel(Z) in the regions beyond you.(AA) For we do not want to boast about work already done in someone else’s territory. 17 But, “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”[b](AB) 18 For it is not the one who commends himself(AC) who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.(AD)

Paul’s Apostolic Authority
10 Now I, Paul, myself, appeal to you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ – I who am humble among you in person but bold towards you when absent. 2 I beg you that when I am present I will not need to be bold with the confidence by which I plan to challenge certain people who think we are living according to the flesh.(A) 3 For although we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh, 4 since the weapons of our warfare(B) are not of the flesh, but are powerful(C) through God for the demolition of strongholds. We demolish arguments 5 and every proud thing that is raised up against the knowledge(D) of God, and we take every thought captive to obey Christ. 6 And we are ready to punish any disobedience, once your obedience is complete.
7 Look at what is obvious.[a] If anyone is confident that he belongs to Christ,(E) let him remind himself of this: Just as he belongs to Christ, so do we. 8 For if I boast a little too much about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up(F) and not for tearing you down, I will not be put to shame. 9 I don’t want to seem as though I am trying to terrify you with my letters. 10 For it is said, ‘His letters are weighty and powerful, but his physical presence is weak and his public speaking amounts to nothing.’ 11 Let such a person consider this: What we are in our letters, when we are absent, we shall also be in our actions when we are present.
12 For we don’t dare classify or compare ourselves with some who commend(G) themselves. But in measuring themselves by themselves and comparing themselves to themselves,(H) they lack understanding.(I) 13 We, however, will not boast beyond measure but according to the measure of the area of ministry that God has assigned(J) to us, which reaches even to you. 14 For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we had not reached you, since we have come to you with the gospel of Christ. 15 We are not boasting beyond measure about other people’s labours. On the contrary, we have the hope(K) that as your faith increases, our area of ministry will be greatly enlarged, 16 so that we may preach the gospel to the regions beyond you(L) without boasting about what has already been done in someone else’s area of ministry.(M) 17 So let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.[b](N) 18 For it is not the one commending himself who is approved, but the one the Lord commends.(O)
