What I am saying, I am not saying as the Lord would, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.

我说的话不是奉主命说的，乃是像愚妄人放胆自夸；

我说的话不是奉主的权柄说的，而是像愚蠢人具有自信地放胆夸口。

我说的话不是奉主的权柄说的，而是像愚蠢人具有自信地放胆夸口。

我这样说，并不是主的意思，而是像一个傻瓜一样夸口。

我这样满有自信地夸口，不是照着主所吩咐的，而是好像愚昧人在说话。

我现在所说的，不是按照主说的，而是像一个愚妄人那样自信夸耀。

我說的話不是奉主命說的，乃是像愚妄人放膽自誇；

我說的話不是奉主的權柄說的，而是像愚蠢人具有自信地放膽誇口。

我說的話不是奉主的權柄說的，而是像愚蠢人具有自信地放膽誇口。

我這樣說，並不是主的意思，而是像一個傻瓜一樣誇口。

我這樣滿有自信地誇口，不是照著主所吩咐的，而是好像愚昧人在說話。

我所說的，不是依主的權柄而說的；我是好像有愚氣、憑着這種誇口的自信來說的。

我現在所說的，不是按照主說的，而是像一個愚妄人那樣自信誇耀。

此言、非主命也、乃若愚者自信而誇、

余今所言、非主命也、乃若狂而大詡、

今我所言、非按主命而言、乃似狂者、大膽自誇、

惟須預為聲明者、吾今之所言、非依主之道、乃一發心中之狂愚、故姑妄言之耳。

In this self-confident boasting I am not talking as the Lord would, but as a fool.

When I brag about myself like this, I’m not talking the way the Lord would. I’m talking like a fool.

What I am saying with this boastful confidence, I say not as the Lord would but as a fool.

Such boasting is not from the Lord, but I am acting like a fool.

What I am saying in this matter of boasting, I don’t speak as the Lord would, but as it were, foolishly.

What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as it were, foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

That which I speak, I speak not after the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of glorying.

What I say in this matter of boasting, I don’t speak as the Lord would, but foolishly.

That which I speak, I speak[ it] not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

What I am saying with this boastful confidence I do not say the way the Lord would. Instead it is, as it were, foolishness.

That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.

But to the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her.

for we are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and take pride in Christ Jesus, and put no confidence in the flesh,although I myself could boast as having confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he is confident in the flesh, I have more reason:circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee;as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless.

otherwise, if any Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we— not to mention you— would be put to shame by this confidence.

Now concerning virgins, I have no command of the Lord, but I am offering direction as one who by the mercy of the Lord is trustworthy.

But this I say by way of concession, not of command.

Since many boast according to the flesh, I will boast also.For you, being so wise, tolerate the foolish gladly.For you tolerate it if anyone enslaves you, if anyone devours you, if anyone takes advantage of you, if anyone exalts himself, if anyone hits you in the face.To my shame I must say that we have been weak by comparison. But in whatever respect anyone else is bold— I am speaking in foolishness— I too am bold.Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.Are they servants of Christ?— I am speaking as if insane— I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death.Five times I received from the Jews thirty nine lashes.Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent adrift at sea.I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers at sea, dangers among false brothers;I have been in labor and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.
