2 Corinthians 10:17-18 ALT

2 Corinthians 10:17, 18 MWT
17 "But he that boasts, let him boast in Jehovah." [Jer 9:24] 18 For not the one who recommends himself is approved, but the man whom Jehovah recommends.

2 Corinthians 10:17-18 BBE
(17) But whoever has a desire for glory, let his glory be in the Lord [Jehovah]. [Jer 9:24] (18) For the Lord's approval of a man is not dependent on his opinion of himself, but on the Lord's opinion of him.

2 Corinthians 10:17-18 CEV

2 Corinthians 10:17-18 GNB
(17) But as the scripture says, "Whoever wants to boast must boast about what the Lord [Jehovah] has done." [Jer 9:24] (18) For it is when the Lord thinks well of us that we are really approved, and not when we think well of ourselves.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
