2 Corinthians 10:16-18
New Catholic Bible
16 so that we may preach the gospel to regions beyond you, rather than boasting about work already done in someone else’s region.
17 If anyone would boast, let him boast in the Lord.[a] 18 For it is not the one who commends himself who is really approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.

- 2 Corinthians 10:17 Let him boast in the Lord: boasting is not wrong when it is done “in the Lord.” Paul boasts of God’s work accomplished through him in the community (2 Cor 10:13-16; see 2 Cor 1:12-14). This is his recommendation (2 Cor 3:1-3). See note on 1 Cor 1:29-31.
