Abowiem jeslim u niego z was się w czym przechwalał, nie zawstydziłem się; jakośmy wszytki rzeczy prawdziwie mówili wam, tak też i przechwalanie nasze u Tytusa prawdziwym jest znalezione.
Bo jeśli się przed nim nieco wami szczyciłem, to po jego przybyciu nie musiałem się wstydzić. Wszystko okazało się prawdą: i to, co wam powiedziałem, i to, jak się wami przed Tytusem szczyciłem.
Bo jeśli mu się trochę z was chlubiłem nie zostałem zawstydzony; ale jak wszystko powiedzieliśmy wam w prawdzie tak też i nasza chluba przed Tytusem okazała się prawdą.
A iż jeźlim się w czem przed nim z was chlubił, nie zawstydziłem się; ale jakośmy wam prawdziwie wszystko mówili, tak się też chluba nasza przed Tytusem prawdziwa pokazała.
Bo jeśli w czymś chlubiłem się wami przed nim, nie zostałem zawstydzony. Lecz tak, jak mówiliśmy wam wszystko zgodnie z prawdą, tak też nasza chluba przed Tytusem okazała się prawdziwa.
Bo jeśli przed nim chlubiłem się nieco wami, nie zostałem zawstydzony, lecz jak wam we wszystkim mówiliśmy prawdę, tak i chluba nasza przed Tytusem okazała się prawdą.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For if I have boasted anything to him of you,.... As of their faith in Christ, of their liberality to the saints, their affection for him, and obedience to him as children to a father:
I am not ashamed; since these all appeared to be true; as he must have been had they been otherwise:
but as we spake all things to you in truth; that is, our preaching among you was true; all the doctrines we delivered to you were truth; our word was not yea and nay, but uniform, and all of a piece:
even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth; some understand this of the boasting which the apostle made concerning Titus, in his epistle to them, highly commending him, and which they found to be in all things exactly true; but the words rather design his boasting of the Corinthians unto Titus, which was found to be true by him.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For if I have boasted anything to him ... - This seems to imply that Paul had spoken most favorably to Titus of the Corinthians before he went among them. He had probably expressed his belief that he would be kindly received; that they would be disposed to listen to him, and to comply with the directions of the apostle; perhaps he had spoken to him of what he anticipated would be their liberality in regard to the collection which he was about to make for the poor saints at Jerusalem.
I am not ashamed - It has all turned out to be true. He has found it as I said it would be. All my expectations are realized; and you have been as kind, and hospitable, and benevolent as I assured him you would be.
As we spake all things to you in truth - Everything which I said to you was said in truth. All my promises to you, and all my commands, and all my reasonable expectations expressed to you, were sincere. I practiced no disguise, and all that I have said thus far turned out to be true.
Even so our boasting ... - My boasting of your character, and of your disposition to do right, which I made before Titus has turned out to be true. It was as I said it would be. I did not commend you too highly to him, as I did not overstate the matter to you in my Epistle.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 14. For if I have boasted — The apostle had given Titus a very high character of this Church, and of their attachment to himself; and doubtless this was the case previously to the evil teacher getting among them, who had succeeded in changing their conduct, and changing in a great measure their character also; but now they return to themselves, resume their lost ground, so that the good character which the apostle gave them before, and which they had for a time forfeited, is now as applicable to them as ever. Therefore his boasting of them is still found a truth.
