6 We were not looking for praise from people, not from you or anyone else, even though as apostles of Christ we could have asserted our authority.

6 Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.

6 As for human praise, we have never sought it from you or anyone else.

6 Nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, when we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

6 We were not looking for human praise, from you or anyone else,

6 nor seeking glory of men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.

6 nor seeking glory from men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have been a charge as Christ’s apostles;

6 We didn’t seek praise from people, from you or from anyone else,

6 and we didn’t seek glory from people, either from you or from others.

6 nor did we seek praise from mortals, whether from you or from others,

6 nor seeking glory from people, neither from you nor from others.

6 We were not expecting people to praise us. We were not looking for praise from you or anyone else.

As Christ’s apostles, we could have caused you some expense.

6 nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, even though as apostles of Christ we might have asserted our authority.
