Living Bible

New International Version
16 so that we can preach the gospel(A) in the regions beyond you.(B) 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.”[a](C) 18 For it is not the one who commends himself(D) who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.(E)
