2 Corinthians 10:10-12

New American Standard Bible

¹⁰ For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his ^[a]personal presence is ^(A)unimpressive and ^(B)his speech contemptible.” ¹¹ Have such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when absent, such persons we are also in deed when present.

¹² For we do not presume to rank or compare ourselves with ^[b]some of those who ^(C)commend themselves; but when they ^[c]measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they have no understanding.
