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,

und rühmen uns nicht übers Ziel hinaus in fremder Arbeit und haben Hoffnung, wenn nun euer Glaube in euch wächst, daß wir in unsrer Regel nach wollen weiterkommen
No gloriándonos fuera de nuestra medida en trabajos ajenos; mas teniendo esperanza del crecimiento de vuestra fe, que seremos muy engrandecidos entre vosotros, conforme a nuestra regla.
No nos gloriamos más allá de los límites en trabajos ajenos, sino que esperamos que, al crecer la fe de ustedes, se amplíe abundantemente nuestra labor entre ustedes dentro de nuestro campo,
Ce n'est pas hors de toute mesure, ce n'est pas des travaux d'autrui, que nous nous glorifions; mais c'est avec l'espérance, si votre foi augmente, de grandir encore d'avantage parmi vous, selon les limites qui nous sont assignées,
non gloriandoci all’infinito delle fatiche altrui; ma avendo speranza, che crescendo la fede vostra, saremo in voi abbondantemente magnificati, secondo i limiti assegnatici.
Não nos gloriando fora da medida nos trabalhos alheios; antes tendo esperança de que, crescendo a vossa fé, seremos abundantemente engrandecidos entre vós, conforme a nossa regra,
我們不靠別人所勞碌的過分誇口;我們只希望你們信心增長的時候,所劃定給我們的範圍也能夠因著你們更加擴展,
