2 Corinthians 10:15-17
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
15 not boasting in unmeasured things, in labors belonging-to-others, but having the hope, while your faith is growing, that we might be enlarged[a] in[b] you in relation to our standard of measure, for an abundance; 16 that we might announce-the-good-news in the regions beyond[c] you, not that we might boast in the prepared things in the standard of measure belonging-to-another.
The One The Lord Commends Is The Approved One
17 But “let the one boasting be boasting in the Lord” [Jer 9:24].

New International Version
15 Neither do we go beyond our limits(A) by boasting of work done by others.(B) Our hope is that, as your faith continues to grow,(C) our sphere of activity among you will greatly expand, 16 so that we can preach the gospel(D) in the regions beyond you.(E) 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](F)
