12. Not that we dare to class or compare ourselves with some of those who recommend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.

14. For we are not overreaching ourselves, as though we did not reach you; we indeed first came to you with the gospel of Christ.
