To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man’s line of things made ready to our hand. |
to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man’s sphere of accomplishment. |
so as to preach the gospel even to the regions beyond you, and not to boast in what has been accomplished (to the things prepared) in the sphere of another. |
so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you. For we do not want to boast about work already done in another man’s territory. |
So that [we may even] preach the Gospel in lands [lying] beyond you, without making a boast of work already done in another [man’s] sphere of activity [before we came on the scene]. |
with a view to proclaiming the good news in the regions beyond you, not boasting ourselves in another’s field of activity with reference to the things made ready [in advance by others, namely, the Christian assemblies already founded by others]. |
so that before long we shall be preaching the gospel in districts beyond you, instead of being proud of work that has already been done in someone else’s province. |
so that I can preach the good news in the regions beyond you, without boasting in another man’s sphere of work already done by him. |
