yea, I beseech you, that I may not when present show courage with the confidence wherewith I count to be bold against some, who count of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

Yes, I make my request to you, so that when I am with you I may not have to make use of the authority which may be needed against some to whom we seem to be walking after the flesh.

σας παρακαλω δε οταν ελθω, να μη λαβω θαρρος με την πεποιθησιν εκεινην, με την οποιαν στοχαζομαι να τολμησω εναντιον τινων, οιτινες θεωρουσιν ημας ως κατα σαρκα περιπατουντας.

But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be bold against some, which think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.
