10. ನಾನು ನಿಮ್ಮೊಂದಿಗೆ ಇಲ್ಲದಿರುವಾಗ ಈ ಸಂಗತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಬರೆಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ನಾನು ಬಂದಾಗ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ದಂಡಿಸುವುದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ನನ್ನ ಅಧಿಕಾರವನ್ನು ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸುವ ಅಗತ್ಯವಿರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಪ್ರಭುವು ನನಗೆ ಅಧಿಕಾರವನ್ನು ಕೊಟ್ಟಿರುವುದು ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಬಲಗೊಳಿಸುವುದಕ್ಕಾಗಿಯೇ ಹೊರತು ನಾಶಮಾಡುವುದಕ್ಕಾಗಿಯಲ್ಲ.

KNV
10. ಇದಕ್ಕಾಗಿಯೇ ನಾನು ನಿಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿ ಇಲ್ಲದಿರುವಾಗ ಈ ಮಾತುಗಳನ್ನು ಬರೆದಿದ್ದೇನೆ; ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕೆಡವಿ ಹಾಕುವದಕ್ಕಲ್ಲ, ಕಟ್ಟುವದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಕರ್ತನು ನನಗೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟಿರುವ ಅಧಿಕಾರದ ಪ್ರಯೋಗದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಬಳಿಗೆ ಬಂದಾಗ ಕಾಠಿಣ್ಯವನ್ನು ತೋರಿಸುವದಕ್ಕೆ ಅವಕಾಶವಿರ ಬಾರದೆಂದು ಅಪೇಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ.
