But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to reach even unto you.

Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men's labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly,

To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand.

And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
