10:17But the one who boasts must boast in the Lord.35

Read in Logos
2 Corinthians 10:17: “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”

Footnotes

  1. 35 The traditional translation (“let the one who boasts boast in the Lord”) can be understood as merely permissive by the English reader, but the Greek verb καυχάσθω (kauchasthō) is a third person imperative. A quotation from Jer 9:24 (also quoted in 1 Cor 1:31).
