2 Corinthians 10:2

English Standard Version

2 I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of walking according to the flesh. (1Co 4:18; 1Co 4:21; 2Co 10:6; 2Co 13:2; 2Co 13:10)

New International Version

2 I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be towards some people who think that we live by the standards of this world.

New International Reader’s Version

2 I am coming to see you. Please don’t make me be as bold as I expect to be towards some people. They think that I live the way the people of this world live.

King James Version

2 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.
