2 Corinthians 10:9
| ← 2 Corinthians 10:8 | 2 Corinthians 10:9 (KJV) | 2 Corinthians 10:10 → |
|---|---|---|
For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:
|
That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.
|
For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

In composition it retains the same general importance.
- G1380 — δοκέω (dokéō, dok-eh'-o): a prolonged form of a primary verb, δόκω (dókō) dok'-o (used only in an alternate in certain tenses; compare the base of δεικνύω (deiknýō) G1166) of the same meaning; to think; by implication, to seem (truthfully or uncertainly); be accounted, (of own) please(-ure), be of reputation, seem (good), suppose, think, trow
