2 Corinthians 11:17

English Standard Version

17 What I am saying with this boastful confidence, I say not as the Lord would[1] but as a fool. (1Co 7:12; 2Co 9:4)

New International Version

17 In this self-confident boasting I am not talking as the Lord would, but as a fool.

New International Reader’s Version

17 When I boast about myself like this, I’m not talking the way the Lord would. I’m talking like a fool.

King James Version

17 That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
