Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now I Paul myself beseech you, by the mildness and modesty of Christ, who in presence indeed am lowly among you, but being absent, am bold toward you.
1我－ 保羅 ，就是與你們見面的時候是謙卑的，不在你們那裏的時候向你們是勇敢的，如今親自藉着基督的溫柔、和平勸你們。
2But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present, with that confidence wherewith I am thought to be bold, against some, who reckon us as if we walked according to the flesh.
2有人以為我是憑着血氣行事，我也以為必須用勇敢待這等人；求你們不要叫我在你們那裏的時候，有這樣的勇敢。
3For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
3因為我們雖然在血氣中行事，卻不憑着血氣爭戰。
4For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty to God unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,
4我們爭戰的兵器本不是屬血氣的，乃是在上帝面前有能力，可以攻破堅固的營壘，
5And every height that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every understanding unto the obedience of Christ;
5將各樣的計謀，各樣攔阻人認識上帝的那些自高之事，一概攻破了，又將人所有的心意奪回，使他都順服基督。
6And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled.
6並且我已經預備好了，等你們十分順服的時候，要責罰那一切不順服的人。
7See the things that are according to outward appearance. If any man trust to himself, that he is Christ’s, let him think this again with himself, that as he is Christ’s, so are we also.
7你們是看眼前的嗎？倘若有人自信是屬基督的，他要再想想，他如何屬基督，我們也是如何屬基督的。
8For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.
8主賜給我們權柄，是要造就你們，並不是要敗壞你們；我就是為這權柄稍微誇口，也不至於慚愧。
9But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles,
9我 說這話 ，免得你們以為我寫信是要威嚇你們；
10(For his epistles indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible,)
10因為有人說：「他的信又沉重又厲害，及至見面，卻是氣貌不揚，言語粗俗的。」
11Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles, when absent, such also we will be indeed when present.
11這等人當想，我們不在那裏的時候，信上的言語如何，見面的時候，行事也必如何。
12For we dare not match, or compare ourselves with some, that commend themselves; but we measure ourselves by ourselves, and compare ourselves with ourselves.
12因為我們不敢將自己和那自薦的人同列相比。他們用自己度量自己，用自己比較自己，乃是不通達的。
13But we will not glory beyond our measure; but according to the measure of the rule, which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even unto you.
13我們不願意分外誇口，只要照上帝所量給我們的界限搆到你們那裏。
14For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as if we reached not unto you. For we are come as far as to you in the gospel of Christ.
14我們並非過了自己的界限，好像搆不到你們那裏；因為我們早到你們那裏，傳了基督的福音。
15Not glorying beyond measure in other men’s labours; but having hope of your increasing faith, to be magnified in you according to our rule abundantly;
15我們不仗着別人所勞碌的，分外誇口；但指望你們信心增長的時候，所量給我們的界限，就可以因着你們更加開展，
16Yea, unto those places that are beyond you, to preach the gospel, not to glory in another man’s rule, in those things that are made ready to our hand.
16得以將福音傳到你們以外的地方；並不是在別人界限之內，藉着他現成的事誇口。
17But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
17但誇口的，當指着主誇口。
18For not he who commendeth himself, is approved, but he, whom God commendeth.
18因為蒙悅納的，不是自己稱許的，乃是主所稱許的。
