Second letter to the Corinthians 1:12

[Paul uses the word "pride" 29 times in this letter, more than in all his other letters combined. The word often has a negative connotation, but Paul's understanding is based on Jer. 9:23–24, which he partially quotes in 2 Cor. 10:17. Boasting about one's own human achievements is wrong; on the other hand, pride in what God has done is something good.]
This is our pride (what we boast about), and we can say with a clear conscience (the testimony of our conscience is): here in the world, and especially toward you [in Corinth], we have conducted ourselves in a holy and pure manner before God and have not been led by worldly wisdom but by God's grace (power, favor).
