The Key Word — καυχήσασθαι, kauchaomaigenerated
The Greek word καυχάομαι is a verb meaning 'to boast' or 'to glory.' It is used in various contexts throughout the New Testament, often reflecting a sense of pride or joy in one's achievements or in relation to God. The form here is an infinitive, indicating the action of boasting.
In this verse, Paul is concerned about boasting in the work that has already been accomplished by others. His focus is on expanding his own ministry and ensuring that his efforts are genuine and not merely a reflection of someone else's labor.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The primary translation used here is from the Berean Standard Bible, which states, 'so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you.' Other translations, such as the KJV and ASV, also convey this idea but use different phrasing, such as 'not to boast in another man’s line of things made ready.'
Where the translations differ is in the rendering of specific terms. For example, καυχήσασθαι is rendered as 'boast' in the KJV and 'boasting' in the BSB. Similarly, κανόνι is translated as 'line of things' in the KJV and 'province' in the ASV.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The sentence is structured around two main clauses, with the first clause stating the purpose of Paul's actions and the second clause describing what he will avoid. The finite verb in the first clause is εὐαγγελίσασθαι, indicating the action of preaching the gospel.
The second clause introduces a negative aspect with οὐκ, emphasizing that Paul does not intend to boast in the work already done by others. This structure highlights the contrast between his intentions and the actions he seeks to avoid.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In 2 Corinthians 10:16, the Greek word ὑμῶν (su), meaning 'you', corresponds to the Hebrew word אַתָּ֫ה (attah), which also means 'you'. This choice emphasizes the personal address to the audience in the context of the apostle's mission.
The term εὐαγγελίσασθαι (euangelizomai), meaning 'to evangelise', is derived from the Hebrew concept of בָּשַׂר (basar), which means 'to bear tidings'. This connection underscores the act of proclaiming good news as central to the apostolic mission.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
2 Corinthians 10:16 shows Paul’s desire to preach the gospel in new regions beyond the Corinthian church. He emphasizes that he does not want to take credit for the work done by others, focusing instead on his own mission to share the good news.

There, apparently, he could hope to preach the gospel without even the risk of its being said that he was building on another man’s foundation. And not to boast in another man’s line . . .—The words, like those of 2 Corinthians 10:15, are at once an answer to a charge and a tu quoque retort. “Spain! Illyricum!” he seems to say within himself. “Will you say that I am transgressing boundaries and working on another man’s lines there? Can you say that you are free from that charge in your work at Corinth?”

See the Introduction, sec. xii. Not to boast in another man's line] So very scrupulous was the apostle not to build on another man's foundation, that he would not even go to those places where other apostles were labouring.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
etiam in illa, quæ ultra vos sunt, evangelizare, non in aliena regula in iis quæ præparata sunt gloriari.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

εὐαγγελίζω is a verb meaning to announce good news, particularly in a Christian context referring to the gospel. It is derived from roots meaning 'good' and 'message.' The New Testament frequently uses it to describe the act of proclaiming the message of salvation through Christ, as seen in verses like Luke 4:18 and Romans 1:15. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),
[in LXX for לֹא, אַיִן, אֵין;]
neg. particle,
not, no, used generally c. indic. and for a denial of fact (cf . μή);
absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH. Introd. § 409); L οὐχ ὀλίγος, Acts xix. 23; οὐχ ἠγάπησαν, Rev. xii. 11; and contrariwise οὐκ before an aspirate, as οὐκ ἕστηκεν, Jn. viii. 44 T; [οὐκ ἕνεκεν, 2 Co. vii. 12 T]; (οὐκ εὗρον, Lk. xxiv. 3; [οὐκ ὑπάρχει, Acts iii. 6] in cod. x [alsoC*; ef. cod.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The Greek word ἀλλότριος (i.e., *allotrios*) is built from the root for 'another' and means belonging to another or foreign. It covers a range of meanings including alien, strange, and hostile, often contrasted with what is one's own. The New Testament uses it in verses like Luke 16:12 and Romans 14:4. Dodson's entry is notably brief, simply defining it as belonging to another person or foreign.
ἀλλότριος, -α, -ον
(< ἄλλος),
[in LXX for זוּר, נֵכָר, אַחֵר;]
belonging to another, not one's own (opp. to ἴδιος): Lk 16:12, Ro 14:4 15:20 (Field, Notes, 165 f.), II Co 10:15, 16, I Ti 5:22, He 9:25.
ἀλλότριος, -a, τον; 1. belonging to another (opp. to ἴδιος), not one’s own: Heb. ix. 25; Ro. xiv. 4; xv. 20; 2 Co. x. 15 sq.; 1 Tim. v. 22; Jn. x. 5. in neut., Lk. xvi. 12 (opp. to τὸ ὑμέτερον). 2. foreign, strange: yi, Acts vii. 6; Heb. xi. 9; not of one’s own family, alien, Mt. xvii. 25 sq.; an enemy, Heb. xi. 34, (Hom. I. 5, 214; Xen. an. 3, 5, 5).

P Oxy VII. 1067 ὁ (a very ungrammatical letter of iii/A.D.), μάθε οὖν ὅτι ἀλλοτρίαν γυναῖκαν (/. ἀλλοτρία γυνή) ἐκληρονόμησεν αὐτόν, ““Κπονν then that a strange woman is made his heir” (Ed.): The adjective is common in the sense of alzenus, “belonging to others”: one or two special applications may be cited. A rescript of Gordian (P Tebt Il. 285°), which Wilcken marks as suffering from translation out of Latin, uses τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους for * outsiders,” as against legitimate children. P Giss I. 6γ15 (ii/a.p.) τὸ yap ἀλλ[ότ]ριον ἐποίησα Ev[. . . seems to imply ‘‘I did what was foreign to me,” but the lost context may change this entirely. 6. 995 (ii/iii Αἰγυπτίων ἀλλότρια ταῦτα ἣν], ἐδρᾶτο δὲ ὅμως.

κανών (kanon) refers to a straight rod or bar, often used as a measuring tool or standard. In the New Testament, it signifies a boundary or sphere of activity, as seen in 2 Corinthians 10:13, 15, 16, and a rule of conduct in Galatians 6:16. The word is derived from a root meaning 'reed' and encompasses both literal and metaphorical uses.

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἕτοιμος (i.e., *hetoimos*) means 'ready' or 'prepared.' It is used for both things and people, indicating readiness for action or availability. In the New Testament, it appears in verses such as Matthew 22:4, 8 and 2 Corinthians 9:5. The word is derived from an older noun meaning 'fitness' and has a range of applications, including being ready at hand or prepared for a specific purpose.

The Greek word καυχάομαι (transliterated as kauchaomai) means to boast or glory, and it appears in various contexts in the New Testament. It is built from the root related to speaking loudly or boasting, and can convey both positive and negative connotations. The term is used in several New Testament letters, particularly by Paul, to express pride or joy in relation to God or others.
