G2744–καυχάομαι–kauchaomai

And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

καυχήσομαι kauchēsomai “will I boast”

I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended by you: for in nothing am I behind the very greatest apostles, though I am nothing.

καυχώμενος· kauchōmenos “boasting;”

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

καυχήσωνται. kauchēsōntai “they may boast.”

But may it never be that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

καυχᾶσθαι kauchasthai “to boast”

Not by works, lest any man should boast.

καυχήσηται. kauchēsētai “may boast.”

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.

καυχώμενοι kauchōmenoi “glorying”

Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:

καυχάσθω kauchasthō “should boast”

But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.

καυχᾶσθε kauchasthe “you boast”
