For if I should desire to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I shall speak the truth: but I forbear, lest any man should account of me above that which he seeth me to be, or heareth from me.

For if I had a desire to take credit to myself, it would not be foolish, for I would be saying what is true: but I will not, for fear that I might seem to any man more than he sees me to be, or has word from me that I am.

Διοτι εαν θελησω να καυχηθω, δεν θελω εισθαι αφρων, επειδη αληθειαν θελω ειπει· συστελλομαι ομως μη στοχασθη τις εις εμε ανωτερον τι αφ' ο, τι με βλεπει η ακουει τι εξ εμου.

For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
