For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of; for necessity is laid upon me; for woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel.

For if I am a preacher of the good news, I have no cause for pride in this; because I am forced to do so, for a curse is on me if I do not.

Διοτι εαν κηρυττω το ευαγγελιον, δεν ειναι εις εμε καυχημα· επειδη αναγκη επικειται εις εμε· ουαι δε ειναι εις εμε εαν δεν κηρυττω·

For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
