2 Corinthians 11:21 | |
NASB: To [my] shame I [must] say that we have been weak [by comparison]. But in whatever respect anyone [else] is bold-- I speak in foolishness-- I am just as bold myself. (NASB ©1995) GWT: I'm ashamed to admit it, but Timothy and I don't have the strength to do those things to you. Whatever other people dare to brag about, I, like a fool, can also brag about. (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also. ASV: I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet whereinsoever any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also. BBE: I say this by way of shaming ourselves, as if we had been feeble. But if anyone puts himself forward (I am talking like a foolish person), I will do the same. DBY: I speak as to dishonour, as though we had been weak; but wherein any one is daring, (I speak in folly,) I also am daring. WEY: I use the language of self-disparagement, as though I were admitting our own feebleness. Yet for whatever reason any one is 'courageous' --I speak in mere folly--I also am courageous. WBS: I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. But in whatever respect any is bold, (I speak foolishly) I am bold also. WEB: I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also. YLT: in reference to dishonour I speak, how that we were weak, and in whatever any one is bold -- in foolishness I say [it] -- I also am bold. | |
