RCTA
6. அப்படி நான் பெருமைப்பட விரும்பினாலும், அது அறிவீனமாய் இராது; சொல்வது உண்மையாகவே இருக்கும். ஆயினும் என்னிடம் காண்பதிலும் கேட்பதிலும் உயர்வாக என்னைப்பற்றி யாரும் எண்ணாதபடி நான் பெருமை பாராட்டாது விடுகிறேன்.

TOV
6. சத்தியமானதை நான் பேசுகிறேன்; நான் மேன்மைபாராட்ட மனதாயிருந்தாலும், நான் புத்தியீனனல்ல, ஆனாலும் ஒருவனும் என்னிடத்தில் காண்கிறதற்கும், என்னாலே கேட்கிறதற்கும் மேலாக என்னை எண்ணாதபடிக்கு அப்படிச் செய்யாதிருப்பேன்.

ERVTA
6. எனக்குக் காட்டப்பட்ட அதிசயங்களைக் குறித்து நான் அதிகம் பெருமைப்பட்டுக்கொள்ளக் கூடாது. வேதனை மிக்க ஒரு பிரச்சனை எனக்குக் கொடுக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. (மாம்சத்தில் ஒரு முள் என்பது அதன் பொருள்) அது சாத்தானிடம் இருந்து அனுப்பப்பட்ட தூதுவன். நான் அதிக அளவு பெருமை பாராட்டிக்கொள்வதில் இருந்து அது என்னை அடித்துக் கட்டுப்படுத்தும்.

IRVTA
6. சத்தியமானதை நான் பேசுகிறேன்; நான் மேன்மைபாராட்ட விரும்பினாலும், நான் புத்தியீனன் இல்லை, ஆனாலும் ஒருவனும் என்னிடம் பார்த்ததற்கும், கேட்டதற்கும் மேலாக என்னை நினைக்காமலிருக்க நான் அப்படிச் செய்யாதிருப்பேன்.

ECTA
6. அப்படி நான் பெருமை பாராட்ட விரும்பினாலும் அது அறிவீனமாய் இராது. நான் பேசுவது உண்மையாகவே இருக்கும். ஆயினும் என்னிடம் காண்பதையும் கேட்பதையும் விட உயர்வாக யாரும் என்னைக் கருதாதபடி நான் பெருமை பாராட்டாது விடுகிறேன்.

OCVTA
6. அப்படி நான் பெருமை பேச விரும்பினாலும், அது முட்டாள்தனமாய் இராது. ஏனெனில் நான் உண்மையையே பேசுவேன். ஆனால் நான் அப்படிச் செய்யமாட்டேன். ஏனெனில் ஒருவனும், நான் என் வாழ்வில் உண்மையாய் செய்தவற்றையும், சொல்லிப் போதித்தவற்றையும்விட மேலாக என்னைக்குறித்து எண்ணக்கூடாது.
