2 Corinthians 10:15-17
Worldwide English (New Testament)
15 We will not be proud of other men's work which we did not do. We hope that you will believe more strongly, so that we can do more work among you, as God gives it to us.
16 Then we hope to tell the good news in places far beyond you. We will not be proud of the work given to someone else to do - work that was done before we got there.
17 The holy writings say that the person who is proud should be proud only of the Lord.

2 Corinthians 10:15-17
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)
