This new topic concerns Paul himself and his ministry. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that introduces a new topic and focuses on Paul himself. Alternate translation: “As for me, I Paul,” or “Concerning me, Paul, I,” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-words-phrases]]) 10:1 rf4f rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-irony ὃς κατὰ πρόσωπον μὲν ταπεινὸς ἐν ὑμῖν, ἀπὼν δὲ θαρρῶ εἰς ὑμᾶς 1 Here Paul describes himself with words that the Corinthians or his enemies use. He does not mean that he thinks these words are actually true about him, but he brings them up to respond to what others are saying. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that indicates that these are words that other people have said about Paul. Alternate translation: “who appears to be meek when face to face among you, but being absent, appears to be bold toward you” or “who am ‘meek’ when face to face among you, but being absent, am ‘bold’ toward you” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-irony]]) 10:1 w8g1 rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom κατὰ πρόσωπον 1 Here, the phrase **face to face** refers to being with someone physically or in person.

He could mean that: (1) he is appealing to them with the same **meekness** and **gentleness** that Christ showed.

He includes both of these elements because it makes the statement stronger. If your readers would find the repetition confusing, or if the repetition does not make the statement stronger, you could use just one of the terms and make the statement strong in another way. Alternate translation: “I will not need to be very bold, which is how” or “I will not need to have the great confidence with which” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-extrainfo]]) -10:2 k6mn rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns τῇ πεποιθήσει ᾗ 1 If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of **confidence**, you could express the same idea in another way.

What is clear is that they are saying bad things about Paul and claiming to have greater authority and a better gospel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “our opponents who regard” or “any people who regard” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]]) 10:2 i6hh rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor περιπατοῦντας 1 Paul speaks of behavior in life as if it were **walking**.

Alternate translation: “acting” or “living our lives” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]]) 10:2 t6lv rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom κατὰ σάρκα 1 Here Paul uses the phrase **according to the flesh** to refer to human ways of thinking and acting.

Alternate translation: “Indeed, though” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-words-phrases]]) 10:3 cvd6 rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor περιπατοῦντες 1 You should translate **walking** as you did in [10:2](../10/02.md). Alternate translation: “acting” or “living our lives” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]]) 10:3 zbet rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom ἐν σαρκὶ 1 Here, the phrase **in the flesh** indicates that Paul and those with him are humans like everyone else. He is contrasting how he is a human with how he wages war, which is not like how humans wage war. If possible, express this idea so it is clearly connected to how you translate **according to the flesh**. Alternate translation: “in human lives” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]]) 10:3 k7h8 rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-exmetaphor οὐ & στρατευόμεθα 1 Here and in [10:4–6](../10/04.md), Paul speaks as if he and those with him were waging a **war**. He means that they proclaim the good news and defend it and believers against other people and powers that try to corrupt the good news and hurt believers. Paul does not mean that they are actually killing people and fighting with physical weapons. If possible, preserve the metaphor or express the idea with a simile. Alternate translation: “we are like people who wage war, but not” or “we do not fight” (See: [[rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-exmetaphor]])
