2 Corinthians 10:11-13

New Catholic Bible

¹¹ Let them understand that what we are in our letters when we are absent will be the same as what we are in our deeds when we are present.

¹² We do not dare to rank ourselves or to compare ourselves with any of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they only demonstrate their ignorance. ¹³ In contrast, we will not boast beyond the proper limits. Rather, we will measure ourselves according to the standard that God laid down for us, which enabled us to reach out all the way to you.
