2 Corinthians 10:10-12
New American Standard Bible 1995
10 For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his [a]personal presence is (A)unimpressive and (B)his speech contemptible.” 11 Let 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 are not bold to class or compare ourselves with [b]some of those who (C)commend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.

2 Corinthians 10:10-12
New International Version
10 For some say, “His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive(A) and his speaking amounts to nothing.”(B) 11 Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.
12 We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves.(C) When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.
