But we will not boast beyond certain limits, but will confine our boasting according to the limits of the work to which God has appointed us, that reaches even as far as you.

我们不愿意分外夸口，只要照神所量给我们的界限够到你们那里。

我们不愿意过分夸口，但是我们只在上帝划定的界限内夸口。这界限甚至扩展到你们那里。

我们不愿意过分夸口，但是我们只在神划定的界限内夸口。这界限甚至扩展到你们那里。

但我们并非漫无边际地夸口，而是在上帝为我们定下的范围之内夸口，你们也包括在这范围之内。

我们所夸的，并没有越过范围，而是在神量给我们的界限之内；这界限一直延伸到你们那里。

但我们不会在界限以外夸耀，而是在神分给我们的界限范围内夸耀，这界限甚至一直达到你们那里。

我們不願意分外誇口，只要照神所量給我們的界限搆到你們那裏。

我們不願意過分誇口，但是我們只在上帝劃定的界限內誇口。這界限甚至擴展到你們那裏。

我們不願意過分誇口，但是我們只在神劃定的界限內誇口。這界限甚至擴展到你們那裏。

但我們並非漫無邊際地誇口，而是在上帝為我們定下的範圍之內誇口，你們也包括在這範圍之內。

我們所誇的，並沒有越過範圍，而是在神量給我們的界限之內；這界限一直延伸到你們那裡。

我們呢、卻不願過量地誇口，只要照工作範圍的分量、就是上帝所分給我們的分量、也竟伸展到你們那裏去。

但我們不會在界限以外誇耀，而是在神分給我們的界限範圍內誇耀，這界限甚至一直達到你們那裡。

但我儕不逾量而誇、惟依上帝分我之限量、及乎爾者、

吾儕不誇分外之事、惟遵上帝賦我分內之法、即治爾是也、

我儕自誇、不過其量、乃循天主為我儕限定之分為量、即以福音及於爾之量、

吾儕決不作超越範圍之誇耀；吾輩之範圍、以天主所畫者為限、而爾等則在此範圍之內。

We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us, a sphere that also includes you.

But I won’t brag more than I should. God himself has given me an opportunity for serving. I will only brag about what I have done with that opportunity. This opportunity for serving also includes you.

But we will not boast beyond limits, but will boast only with regard to the area of influence God assigned to us, to reach even to you.

We will not boast about things done outside our area of authority. We will boast only about what has happened within the boundaries of the work God has given us, which includes our working with you.

We, however, will not boast beyond measure but according to the measure of the area of ministry that God has assigned to us, which reaches even to you.

But we will not boast beyond our measure, but within the measure of the domain which God assigned to us as a measure, to reach even as far as you.

We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us— a sphere which especially includes you.

But we will not glory beyond our measure, but according to the measure of the province which God apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even unto you.

We, however, will not boast beyond measure but according to the measure of the area of ministry that God has assigned to us, which reaches even to you.

But we will not boast of things without[ our] measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to reach even unto you.

But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but within the boundaries with which God appointed to us, which reach even to you.

And we have different gifts according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith.

And in this way I desire to preach where Christ has not been named, so as not to build on another person’s foundation,

I will make justice the measuring line, fairness the plumb line; hail will sweep away the unreliable refuge, the floodwaters will overwhelm the hiding place.

Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of the varied grace of God.

It is one and the same Spirit, distributing as he decides to each person, who produces all these things.

To one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey.

But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of you a measure of faith.

For we were not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach as far as you, because we were the first to reach as far as you with the gospel about Christ.Nor do we boast beyond certain limits in the work done by others, but we hope that as your faith continues to grow, our work may be greatly expanded among you according to our limits,

But I ask, have they not heard? Yes, they have: Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

Like cloudy skies and wind that produce no rain, so is the one who boasts of a gift not given.

Yet its voice echoes throughout the earth; its words carry to the distant horizon. In the sky he has pitched a tent for the sun.
