Whoever falsely boasts of giving Is like clouds and wind without rain.

空夸赠送礼物的，好像无雨的风云。

人空夸礼物而不肯赠送，就好像有风有云却无雨。

人空夸礼物而不肯赠送，就好像有风有云却无雨。

夸口送礼物却食言的人，就像没有雨水的风和云。

空夸送礼却没有实行的人，就像无雨的风云。

为没送的礼物夸耀，就如有云有风却无雨。

空誇贈送禮物的，好像無雨的風雲。

人空誇禮物而不肯贈送，就好像有風有雲卻無雨。

人空誇禮物而不肯贈送，就好像有風有雲卻無雨。

誇口送禮物卻食言的人，就像沒有雨水的風和雲。

空誇送禮卻沒有實行的人，就像無雨的風雲。

自誇送禮而不實在送禮的人、是只有雲霧跟風、而沒有雨。

為沒送的禮物誇耀，就如有雲有風卻無雨。

妄詡饋遺、如有風雲而無雨、

言欲予人而不予、猶風起雲布、而雨不下。

妄自誇詡、言予人而不予、如有風有雲而雨不降、

Like clouds and wind without rain is one who boasts of gifts never given.

Like clouds and wind without rain is a man who boasts of a gift he does not give.

The one who boasts about a gift that does not exist is like clouds and wind without rain.

Like clouds and wind without rain Is a person who boasts of his gifts falsely.

As clouds and wind without rain, So is he that boasteth himself of his gifts falsely.

The man who boasts about a gift that does not exist is like clouds and wind without rain.

Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift[ is like] clouds and wind without rain.

Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, But who can find a faithful man?

For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

Now Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made horns of iron for himself; and he said,“ Thus says the Lord:‘ With these you shall gore the Syrians until they are destroyed.’”

These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage.

The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.I say again, let no one think me a fool. If otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little.What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as it were, foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.Seeing that many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast.

These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots;raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

“ Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself,‘ God, I thank You that I am not like other men— extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying,‘ God, be merciful to me a sinner!’I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man’s voice restrained the madness of the prophet.These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error.While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage.
