Not that we rule over your faith, but are fellow-workmen of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

Now we will not boast out of measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure has apportioned to us, to reach to you also.

not boasting out of measure in other people's labours, but having hope, your faith increasing, to be enlarged amongst you, according to our rule, yet more abundantly

to announce the glad tidings to that which is beyond you, not to be boasting in another's rule of things made ready to hand.
