15. And I won't brag about work done by others. If I did, I would be bragging more than I should. As your faith continues to grow, I hope that my work among you will greatly increase.
16. Then I will be able to preach the good news in the areas beyond you. I don't want to brag about work already done in someone else's territory.
17. But, "The one who brags should brag about what the Lord has done." (Jeremiah 9:24)
