2 Corinthians 10:7-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

^7 [a](A)You are looking at ^[b]things as they are outwardly. ^(B)If anyone is confident in himself that he is Christ’s, let him consider this again within himself, that just as he is Christ’s, ^(C)so also are we. ⁸ For even if ^(D)I boast somewhat ^[c]further about our ^(E)authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I will not be put to shame, ^9 [d]for I do not wish to seem as if I would terrify you by my letters. ¹⁰ For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his ^[e]personal presence is ^(F)unimpressive and ^(G)his speech contemptible.”
