But we will not boast ^(v)beyond our measure, but ^[i](w)within the measure of the sphere which God apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even as far as you.

For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for ^(x)we were the first to come even as far as you in the ^(y)gospel of Christ;

not boasting ^(z)beyond our measure, that is, in ^(aa)other men's labors, but with the hope that as ^(ab)your faith grows, we will be, ^[j]within our sphere, ^(ac)enlarged even more by you,

so as to ^(ad)preach the gospel even to ^(ae)the regions beyond you, and not to boast ^[k](af)in what has been accomplished in the sphere of another.
