For our glorying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

For our glory is in this, in the knowledge which we have that our way of life in the world, and most of all in relation to you, has been holy and true in the eyes of God; not in the wisdom of the flesh, but in the grace of God.

Διοτι το καυχημα ημων ειναι τουτο, η μαρτυρια της συνειδησεως ημων, οτι εν απλοτητι και ειλικρινεια Θεου, ουχι εν σοφια σαρκικη, αλλ' εν χαριτι Θεου επολιτευθημεν εν τω κοσμω, περισσοτερον δε προς εσας.

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
