Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they show their ignorance.
World English Bible (WEB)
For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But they themselves, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.
Strong's King James
For{G1063} we dare{G5111}{(G5719)} not{G3756} make{G1469} ourselves of the number{G1469}{(G5658)}, or{G2228} compare{G4793} ourselves{G1438} with{G4793}{(G5658)} some{G5100} that commend{G4921}{(G5723)} themselves{G1438}: but{G235} they{G846} measuring{G3354}{(G5723)} themselves{G1438} by{G1722} themselves{G1438}, and{G2532} comparing{G4793} themselves{G1438} among{G4793}{(G5723)} themselves{G1438}, are{G4920} not{G3756} wise{G4920}{(G5719)}.
The F.O.G *
(12) For we aren't boldly daring to make a judgement or comparing ourselves to some of these who recommend themselves. But rather when they measure themselves in themselves they compare themselves with themselves without understanding.
The F.O.G Message *
[12] We wouldn't dare put ourselves in the same league as those who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they show their foolishness. They're marking their own tests and grading on their own curve!
Young's Literal Translation
For we do not make bold to rank or to compare ourselves with certain of those commending themselves, but they, among themselves measuring themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise,
